Okay here's the deal.
Can we talk about some base level logic here? Not complex just real simple.
Hillary's detractors are venomous and aggressive.
In order for her to be a "criminal" simple logic needs to be suspended due to the fact she has never been found guilty, much less even been indicted.
To think this way one would have to ignore the fact that she has assertive enemies, many of them attorneys, out to get her.
Or better yet that they are all conspiring to cover for her in some grand conspiracy that probably only Bannon and Jones could come up with.
This anger is illogical and frankly not grounded just like the people who harbor it.

She was declared to be a "witch" 25 years ago and like the earlier witch trials, the burden is on Hillary to prove she is NOT a witch. This is what the mainstream culture did to intelligent and independent women - got rid of them by accusing them of witchcraft and then murdering them at the stake. Just imagine Trump as the leader of one of these old communities and everyone - including the women - jump on this bandwagon.
"BURN HER! SHE'S A WITCH (and cannot prove otherwise)!"
