Talk about a double standard..

Trump has stepped up and suggested that Moscow should invade the U.S.A., via the internet, to search for Hillary's deleted emails... The number varies from 30,000 to 33,000.

Remarkably though, FOX reported in January 2016 that the FBI has recovered "ALL" of the deleted emails from Hillary's private server. If all of the emails have been recovered, as reported by FOX, what is left to find?

But the true hypocrisy defining the double standard is the failure of any action or call to action by Trump (and his ilk) for the recovery of the 22,000,000 emails deleted by Karl Rove from his White House server.

33,000 email represents a meager 0.0015 percent of 22 million.

I think I understand Trump's decision to ignore Rove's actions and the G.O.P. (Gang Of Psycho's) as they all suffer from an extreme case of megalomania.

During the Shrub administration, all the White House Shrubbies used an unsecured server housed in the Repugnat National Committee headquarters to avoid VOIA laws.

We really need at least eight Congressional investigations to determine how many laws these criminals broke.

The Clinton email server was in a secured building guarded by the Secret Service.

The Shrub-Cheney-Rove "secret" server was housed in the downtown DC office of the RNC. An insecure building where all repugnant hill members and their staffers wander in and out daily. Shameful lack of judgment.

Like comparing apples and rotten tomatoes.
