    So Snopes is not credible because you don't like them or do they have a history of getting things wrong?
    Whatever agenda you think they have is irrelevant. Either what they're saying is true or it isn't.
    Give me examples of what they've gotten wrong or accept that they're right..

    Never said any of that. I was pointing up your lack of credibility.

    That's reasonable, but a far cry from having someone killed.

    My local major metro paper, which I'd wager a lot of money is one of the most liberal in the country, had not one, not two, but three scathing stories/editorials this morning. Still waiting for the cheerleaders!

    Now that their candidate is in the clear, they can act concerned.

    It's not so much that Hillary should be trusted but that Trump should NOT. He would be a disaster in nearly every way.

    Tony doesn't believe in facts. You know this.

    I'm not a big fan of the "They do it too" defense.
    I have to admit, regardless of reality, it doesn't look good for Hillary.
    In the court of public opinion, I don't see it going well for her.

    When it comes to the presidency, there will be cabinet members, advisers, The House, The Senate, SCOTUS, military leaders, etc. In other words, there will be all kinds of checks and balances to keep Trump from being a disaster.

    That in mind, I'll take stupid over completely corrupt (and the "Trump is stupid" camp is mostly lying, anyway). When Trump picks a cabinet, he'll pick people who can cover his weaknesses. When Hillary picks a cabinet, she'll pick people who are either as corrupt as she is or will enable her corruption.
