I thought you too were going along with these seth rich, Russia meeting set-up narratives these other clowns are running with. On February 12, 2016, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, chair of the Democratic National Committee, was asked by CNN's Jake Tapper, "What do you tell voters who are new to the process who say this makes them feel like it's all rigged?" Schultz's response was, "Unpledged delegates exist really to make sure that party leaders and elected officials don't have to be in a position where they are running against grass-roots activists. We are, as a Democratic Party, really highlight and emphasize inclusiveness and diversity at our convention, and so we want to give every opportunity to grass-roots activists and diverse committed Democrats to be able to participate, attend and be a delegate at the convention. And so we separate out those unpledged delegates to make sure that there isn't competition between them."[43] This statement was hailed by Clinton supporters as a wise policy to maintain steady, experienced governance, and derided by Bernie Sanders' supporters as the establishment thwarting the will of the people.[44] Several mainstream media outlets included superdelegates in the candidate delegate totals during the primary elections despite the fact that superdelegates do not actually vote until the Democratic convention and may change their minds on who they are planning to vote for anytime before the convention. The Democratic National Committee eventually publicly instructed media outlets to not include them in primary delegate totals.[45] Nevertheless, many members of the mainstream media, including the Associated Press, NBC, CBS, and Politico continued to misreport the candidate delegate totals by lumping the superdelegates into the totals, inflating Hillary Clinton's lead by over 400 delegates.[46] Critics alleged that this created a perception of insurmountability[47][48] and that it was done in order to discourage would-be Sanders supporters.[49][50][51] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was not seen as a national security issue or even an election issue until later when the entire context of the russian election meddling was realized. Details are still emerging. That's what Mueller is investigating... Obama knew about it in 2014 and went after a FISA warrant on Trump before he even got the nomination (June 2016). FISA warrants aren't to see what cereal he's eating in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collusion with media to plant gotcha questions at debates. Backdoor communication with networks. Election shenanigans in NV and CA. Honestly the Seth Rich leak stories wouldn't surprise me in the least. It's quite plausible. I mean this when I say the world needs more honest liberals like yourself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
