“Hillary Clinton lied many times to the FBI”, Trump told reporters ahead of boarding Marine One for a trip to Utah. “Nothing happened to her. Flynn lied, and they destroyed his life. I think it’s a shame. Hillary Clinton, on the 4th of July weekend, went to the FBI, not under oath. It was the most incredible thing anyone’s ever seen. She lied many times. Nothing happened to her. Flynn lied, and it’s like they ruined his life. It’s unfair.” On Saturday Trump had also tweeted about the indictment, complaining that Flynn pleading guilty showed how the system was “rigged”.

So General Flynn lies to the FBI and his life is destroyed, while Crooked Hillary Clinton, on that now famous FBI holiday “interrogation” with no swearing in and no recording, lies many times...and nothing happens to her? Rigged system, or just a double standard?

Many people in our Country are asking what the “Justice” Department is going to do about the fact that totally Crooked Hillary, AFTER receiving a subpoena from the United States Congress, deleted and “acid washed” 33,000 Emails? No justice!

Trump’s statement about Clinton is completely unsupported. After Clinton was informally interviewed by FBI in July over her use of a private email server, former director James Comey testified to the House Oversight Committee. “We have no basis to conclude she lied to the FBI,” Comey told House Oversight Chairman Jason Chaffetz (R-UT), adding that in his opinion Clinton did not break the law in connection with his use of a private email server.

If only President Trump had the time and the means to cite an example or two of all the many times Hillary Clinton supposedly lied to the FBI. Maybe someone in the news media could think to ask the president to cite just one of those many lies?

You pooped in your lunch pail by admitting you knew your boy lied to the FBI. Your golden tweet is now presidential record. Whoopsie!
