Doesn't take a rocket scientist. Look at Clinton Foundation donors. Look at what happened during Clinton's time as
Secretary of State.

Shooting the messenger doesn't work if the messenger is delivering something of substance.

It remains to be seen if the FBI will find something of substance. Can't blame them for looking. But you can bet if the Condoleezza Rice Foundation was taking big donations and arm dealers were getting big contracts, folks around here would be all over it.

What the GOP will do even if she's innocent (and she very probably is) is damage her with innuendo. This is just part of the Clinton baggage Dems have to carry for her as a candidate.
