http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/28/us/politics/donald-trump-russia-clinton-emails.htmlDORAL, Fla. Donald J. Trump said Wednesday that he hoped Russia had hacked Hillary Clintons email, essentially sanctioning a foreign powers cyberspying of a secretary of states correspondence.
Russia, if youre listening, I hope youre able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing, Mr. Trump said, staring directly into the cameras. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.

At least Nixon was finally held accountable, Reagan and Cheney got a free pass.
When it came out that Reagan had a hand in extending the Iran hostage situation I'd have thought either the hostages or their families would have sued the shit out of him.

ass and is directly pleading for mercy because his ass is toast now that the secret is out about his ties to the spy network his buddy, Putin, has working to get him in office.
He's put on a good show for them up to this point but the scat's outta the bag now and someone is going to pay... and it looks like it's probably the don.

Will the Obama administration act on this? That is a tough call. It may be politically unfeasible for Obama to do so.
Will the CIA and FBI quietly go on with their investigation of this whole affair? Certainly.
What will be the result? More media attention for Trump.
