It was a horrible idea, everybody knew it at the time.
600k for a private charter was nuts. I thought the whole trip was gong to cost 100k and I thought that was ludicrous.

(10,437 posts)kinda runs counter to all the sanders followers demanding hillary drops out now with no charges at all...but because she is being investigated.
Under their logic we should demand bernie drop out becasue HE is under FEC investigation as I type

He proved he is not one of us.

Disruptive flame bait, meant to troll DUers and sow dissent. Neither one of our candidates is a criminal and neither will be indicted or sent to prison. This is DU not Free Republic, enough with the constant swift boating of Democrats.

(5,614 posts)Oh, and maybe this'll get me alerted but I've read most of your posts over the last few months and I have to say you really are an asshole. One good side effect of the coming swing to the GE here on DU is that I imagine we won't be hearing from you again. I'd find that pleasant.
