Trump can't release the Russian dirt on Hillary Clinton

because the Russians *have* no dirt on Hillary Clinton. They hacked the DNC computers and John Podesta's emails, but they were unable to get into Clinton's private server because she had impenetrable protection. My husband, who owns a financial services company, has a private server which is so over-protected--after all, a hack would give access to millions of other people's money--that I can't imagine Hillary Clinton, who was a US senator and Secy of State, wouldn't have an even tighter program of protection. Trump has been begging Russia to release this "dirt" that was promised to Don Jr. for a long time--I think that's what "DO SOMETHING" was all about--without result that I have decided that there is no dirt.

The Russians succeeded in interfering with our election, the big prize, and now I think they are having fun, trolling Donald Trump by dangling this non-existent evidence of Hillary Clinton's criminal activities in front of his nose. Why, otherwise, would he continue to insist that HRC is so much guiltier than his campaign of collusion with Russians?

Clinton did nothing wrong, broke no laws, and therefore any emails that the Russians have are worthless.

Planning Chelsea's wedding is not a crime.

It's classic Rovian tactics - attack where your opponent is strongest. They couldn't get dirt on her because she was smart enough to realize she needed better security than State Dep servers, so they made her secure servers the attack point.
