This is truly extraordinary.
We have a politician running for president who by their own admission is incompetent at handling classified information and is suffering from severe memory problems. And that's if you believe them.
If you don't believe Hillary, she's just a criminal claiming incompetence and medical problems to justify her actions. I can't think of a worse basis for running for political office.
Here's how Hillary Clinton played the FBI. She knew that the evidence that she sent classified information was there. And in true lawyerly fashion, she denied motive evidence. And it worked. She got off based on motive.
According to the files, Clinton claimed to have relied on the judgment of her aides and other officials to handle classified material appropriately. She even told investigators -- when asked what the “C” marking meant before a paragraph in an email marked “Confidential” – that “she did not know and could only speculate it was referencing paragraphs marked in alphabetical order.”
The FBI document notes that the email was in fact marked “classified at the Confidential level.”
Again, we're talking about a former Senator who headed a part of the government that spends some of the most time handling classified information... who now wants to be president. But who told the FBI that she thought C was a paragraph number.
This is beyond ridiculous.
The documents also say Clinton claimed she could not recall “any briefing or training by State related to the retention of federal records or handling of classified information.” Further, Clinton “could not give an example of how classification of a document was determined.”
If you believe that, then you have to believe that at no point in time, despite being in the Senate and serving as Secretary of State, no one ever explained classified documents to her.
And then she tried blaming medical problems...
Hillary Clinton told the FBI she did not recall all the briefings she received on handling sensitive information as she made the transition from her post as U.S. secretary of state, because of a concussion suffered in 2012, according to a report released Friday
Recall that Dems are arguing that Hillary Clinton is the responsible candidate who can be trusted. Based on her own claims, she's medically and procedurally incompetent.
Either that or she's a liar and a criminal.
