“Lots of sound and fury – even a fog machine”, Clinton told 6,000 people at the convention of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees in Las Vegas.

Trump’s campaign has worked to sow distrust by using vague insinuations against Clinton that are hard to prove or disprove.
“Hillary Clinton cared more about protecting her own secrets than she did about protecting America’s secrets”, Christie said. Christie also expressed hope that his gubernatorial successor might be a Republican who continues to pursue his goal to boost the national profile of a Republican delegation hailing from a state long-considered blue. Some delegates nevertheless added chants of “Lock her up!” to the chorus while holding their wrists together to simulate handcuffs.
Chris Christie put on a rollicking show trial of Hillary Clinton at the Republican Convention Tuesday night – leading the audience in Cleveland to shout “guilty!” over and over again in response to his allegations about the former secretary of state.
“I didn’t meet any one of them who said, ‘Hey, I can fix it alone, ‘” Clinton said, moving back to Trump.
Donald Trump has encouraged this unhinged rhetoric by calling Clinton “crooked Hillary” and saying that she “has to go to jail”.
“I know her very well, and I know her husband very well, and I like them both”, he said in another clip. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell told the crowd scandal follows Clinton and former President Clinton “like flies”.
Bracketing Trump, the presumptive Democratic nominee said “last night in Cleveland was surreal”, prompting a chorus of boos at the mention of her Republican rival’s name. She is a disgrace for the lies that she told those mothers about their children that got killed over there in Benghazi.
“Hillary Clinton gave a speech in Columbus, Ohio, where she called Trump an uncaring businessman”. A pilot who doubles as a West Virginia legislator was suspended by United Airlines after he tweeted that Clinton should be tried for treason and then “hung on the Mall in Washington, D.C”.
“Big business, elite media and major donors are lining up behind the campaign of my opponent because they know she will keep our rigged system in place”, Trump said. “What happened to professionalism, manners and humanity in our politicians and citizens?” It’s not Hillary Clinton’s candidacy that is at stake but abortion rights and gun control and climate change and immigration and religious tolerance.

Federal Bureau of Investigation officials called Clinton’s email practices “careless”, but the Justice Department announced earlier this month there was not enough evidence to charge her with a crime.
