And the software company did no such thing; they issued a CYA memo that wasn't worth using as toilet paper. Team Bernie is going to eat the DNC alive if they don't capitulate immediately. In the meantime, Team Trump is reveling in this gift the DNC has given them. The Democratic side has just self-immolated; the clown car should be down on their knees thanking their god for this good fortune.

Thats law enforcement ...


In criminal law, entrapment is a practice whereby a law enforcement agent induces a person to commit a criminal offense that the person would have otherwise been unlikely to commit. It is a conduct that is generally discouraged and thus, in many jurisdictions, it's a possible defense against criminal liability.

Playing the victim works for the die hard radical Bernie supporters, but damn, his staff got caught doing something wrong, 4 of them, and he should have come out right away and made it clear this was wrong, they will be fired, and he will do all he can to resolve the issue.

How anyone in their right mind can honestly pin this one on Hilary is beyond me.
