Election scandals: If you're keeping score, Trump wins

Am I the only person perplexed by the continued harassment of Hillary Clinton regarding “missing emails” when the George W. Bush White House “lost” more than twenty-two million emails and former Secretary Colin Powell acknowledged use of a private email provider?

And Trump continues to be the focus of the news. Here’s a man who has a proven record as a liar, racist, sexist, a sexual predator, a misogynist, and he has been accused of being a molester. He’s a “businessman” who happily announces how clever he is for declaring bankruptcy, for not paying taxes, for not releasing his income tax records. The list goes on and on; not to mention he will only accept the election results if he wins?

And yet the media continues to print almost every word he utters but seemingly the only thing we hear about Secretary Clinton is about “missing emails.” Do we want a leader or a blow-hard, arrogant bully?

And what about the leakers of these emails? One is hiding from prosecution in Russia; the other is hiding from prosecution in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London. “Real Men” hiding but “leaking” biased information, who is paying them?

Confusing times indeed.
