Washington Post: Hillary Has A Major Honesty Problem After NH

The Fix
Hillary Clinton has a major honesty problem after New Hampshire



.....And it should be deeply concerning to a Clinton campaign that has been resistant to acknowledging the idea that the ongoing controversy over Clinton's private email server while at the State Department is a problem for her.


....Clinton's standard response on questions about her honesty — or about her long-running polling problems on questions of whether she is honest and trustworthy — is that it has zero to do with her and how she has acted in and out of office ....

...But the idea that Clinton herself bears no responsibility for the fact that a majority of all Americans repeatedly tell pollsters that words like "honest" and "trustworthy" don't apply to her is nonsensical.

It was Clinton's decision to be the first secretary of state in history to exclusively use a private email server while in office. It was Clinton who said that server would never have to be turned over to an independent investigator. (It eventually was.)



(no mention in the article about her other blatant lies, her conflicts of interest, and, what else can it be called, but, corruption)
