I read that tweet as merely a comparison of justice between Huma and the sailor that was jailed for taking pictures inside a classified area of a nuclear sub. That was not a tweet demanding jail for Huma.
“........demanded Hillary Clinton’s former aide Huma Abedin be sent to jail for not properly handling classified information.”..
While I agree she more than likely belongs in jail, why did Trump not insist that Clinton ALSO goes to jail, she is certainly more deserving that an “aid”, doing what she was instructed to do. Abedin should NOT BE Clinton’s “fall guy”.
It doesn’t appear that publications have turned over a new leaf for the New Year - make the headlines match the actual report... That got really tiresome this past year. I keep saying there isn’t a lack of reporting that will rile us so why do they have to keep exaggerating with their headlines? I expect it will get worse this year.
“That was not a tweet demanding jail for Huma.”
You are 100% correct. Trump worded this carefully, and does not proclaim Abedin guilty. He is calling for the “Justice Department” to treat Abedin equally under the law, the same as a simple sailor. You can bet every news outlet will misreport this.
>> That was not a tweet demanding jail for Huma <<
Not the way Huma’s defense counsel would present the matter to the DC judge and jury that would hear Huma’s case.
But Huma may have nothing to worry about now, other than her legal bills, because Pres. Trump may have queered the judicial process beyond repair for this case.
