I notice at
https://thehornnews.com/shocker-hillary-clinton-jailed/
a report on further developments in the Clinton scandal. It discusses a
December 27 ruling by an appeals court in the USA that John Kerry was derelict
in his duty to refer the Hillary case to the Attorney General for prosecution
when she did not comply with the request for her emails but bleached the data
instead. It also discusses Trump’s nomination of Senator Jeff Sessions from
Alabama as the new Attorney General, and the rigid opposition of Democrats to
the nomination on account of their apprehension that the nominee will pursue
Hillary all the way to jail.
Of
particular interest are the 100+ comments posted at the foot of the article.
Those folks really are bitter towards the former first lady and her husband. In
another time and place she would have been burned as a witch or beheaded as a
traitor. I wonder how much of that ire stems from personal frustrations that
have nothing to do with the Clinton shenanigans. I am not trying to mitigate
Mrs. Clinton’s guilt, or overlook the ridiculous number of Clinton contacts
that seem to have dropped dead in the Clinton wake over the last 40 years, but
I am curious about the social psychology of this situation. Of course,
reductionists try to attribute psychology to elementary physics: every thought
and feeling is a function of the interaction of physical forces and materials.
I don’t buy that, and maybe will write about it separately.
