Related: About this forumWhat If Donald Trump Were Covered Like Hillary Clinton?
How would the media cover Hillary Clinton if
1. She marched around boasting that she is worth $10 billion and had business relationships all over the world, including Russia, but refused to release her tax returns?
2. Her excuse was that shes under audit, even though she was no longer under audit for numerous years, and the IRS has no restrictions on releasing returns under audit anyway?
3. She had launched a foundation that rather than attempting to save sick peoples lives spent other peoples money buying portraits of herself?
4. Her record of service included launching a get-rich quick scheme that was under investigation for fraud?

It's amazing that Donald Trump can skate on all of his malfeasance but Hillary Clinton gets criticized for getting sick. Donald Trump is probably guilty of serious crimes but Hillary Clinton, who has been investigated time and again, has never been found guilty of ANYTHING yet she's the candidate with trust issues.
Where are the journalists?!
Off-topic, earnest, I can't read the picture in your sig line. What is it, please?
Thanks and have a good week.

And I'm sure there are more skeletons in his closet.
