I just read this bit of background on the bbc website, just to bring myself up to date on all the kerfuffle about Hillary Clinton’s emails, and I burst out laughing. What the hell is all the fuss about?! She just got sloppy and used the wrong email account. It’s a blunder, but hardly criminal. Yet to hear trump talk about it, you would think she had put america in mortal peril. Hoq stupid does Trump think americans are? Is it not blindingly obvious that, behind in the polls, he is trying to make a mountain out of a tiny, irrelevant mole-hill? If I were american, I’d frankly feel insulted to be so patronised: he is clearly trying to fool people into thinking Clinton is some sort of enemy of the state, and using the most base, juvenile, transparent showmanesque tactics to do it. Is this what really passes for American politics these days? Really!?
