78. I agree that she was in the wrong.

My problem is with the media making this into a Federal case. What she did was inappropriate and unacceptable for someone of her stature, particularly.

What angers me is that that the media is elevating this into a crime that compares to the many crimes that Trump and company have committed, which is complete bullshit. This is a nothingburger. It should not even be in the news. What should be in the news are the many crimes being committed by Trump and the republicans DAILY.

I am so sick of the media going so hard on our people while they allow the most egregious crimes and offenses committed by republicans just go by without mention. It's disgusting and I don't really give a flying fuck what our people do because it will never, ever be half as bad as what they are doing to this country.
