Ryan would be very dumb to go after the Clintons. Two thirds to convict in the Senate. And its going to look terrible if the GOP starts off trying to undo an election they lost.
Why Not are the Clintons STILL ABOVE THE LAW ? In Libs Eyes it looks like. We are divided nation half the country would approve of it .

No. Most people would see it, rightly, as a way of overturning the election. And I think most people are sick of this election. And they'll blame your side for bringing it up again. And all HRC has to say is...lets work on running the country.
Look, I don't know how many billions have been spent trying to get her. She isn't perfect, but you're going to have to beat her on issues and a vision for the future. Instead, you nominated a candidate that really doesn't have many issues, has a negative vision of America, and basically feeds the anger of a subset of Americans whose number one goal is to get Hillary.
Exactly one person has beaten the Clintons.....Obama, who ran a positive campaign. And the only time they really 'lost' otherwise (1994), was when the Republicans ran on ideas, not attacks.

The point is the party on the whole has not nominated those type of candidates. And republicans have actually won some big issues over the last few decades and brought mainstream democrats to their side. Yea there are vocal young liberals who got on the Bernie train (and I think it was a bigger group also because he was really the only alternative to Clinton), but the party as a whole has stayed pro free trade, embraced the welfare reforms of the 90s and been fairly business friendly.
That won't be the Democratic platform in 4 years unless the economy is in the shitter.
That's why they call themselves "progressives." There is more liberal policies to come. Free stuff!

Nonsense. Obama beat Clinton because he is black.
Consequently, Clinton is beating Trump because she is a woman.
There will be a homosexual in the White House before there is another straight white conservative male President. The racial politics of this country will demand it.

No way. What's the country 33% R. 50% of R's probably approve. The basket of deplorables maybe 22% at best would approve.

By taxing the 1%
Also, by raising your taxes. And mine.
She'll probably also make sure that kids of white married couples have a harder time actually qualifying for free college, somehow, so that more appropriately tinted xim and xer can get their BS in "Studies."

There's simply not enough money from the 1%. They are already paying a huge portion of the taxes. They will have to go for the top 70%.

We have all lost, not matter who wins. The next president will be worse than Obama and Carter (and you can throw in W.).

RE: Trump: Our very weak and ineffective leader, Paul Ryan, had a bad conference call.
Trump was on the outside looking in from the very start. He was never considered a viable opponent to the other dips but he beat them all. The reason was that people were in the "No PC crap anymore" camp. He epitomized the anti-PC theme and that's why he got so popular. So if stupid Ryan favors holding his breath on Trumps big mouth then it'll be on him for losing his contemporaries and the Congress.
That will just make Trump what he is an Independent that was running on the Republican ticket. Because he knew he would be another Johnson or that Green party candidate that no one knows and we know how they've done if he had gone the Independent ticket route.
