Hillary Clinton did some things that normal people wouldn't do but could have done great harm to the nation. But they weren't deemed illegal enough by FBI Director Comey to recommend prosecution. Thus the Clinton Defense was born. It would be easy to toughen the law. So here we have Texas Rep. John Ratcliffe proposing the "Classified Information Protection Act." Source: GOP bill kills the 'Clinton defense' for violating classification laws. Seems simple enough.
Two can play the game. Democrats are trying to hurt Donald Trump with assertions that he hasn't paid taxes in a while, and for evidence the publish what they say is a portion of one of his previous returns which claims a large loss which he carried forward to cut his future taxes. See Donald Trump's Billion-Dollar Tax Loss Is a Diversion From More-Serious Matters. From all accounts, Trump got good tax counsel and did nothing illegal.
But if Democrats are that upset about it, they would pass laws abolishing the tax loss carry-forward. Well? What are they waiting on?
