The fact remains that the President of the United States solicited the help of a foreign intelligence agency to hack into the private communications of his opponent.

You're right that Clinton was already under investigation for Benghazi, but that's a sign that the correct domestic legal process was being followed. The FBI gathered evidence and she testified before congressional hearings. That's how things are supposed to go.

Moreover, Hillary doesn't matter any more, in the same way that McCain doesn't (hence the OP referring to Obama only). She is not President, nor is she playing any sizable role in public life. Deflecting the substantive and meaningful criticism of the sitting President with "but Hillary" is at best distracting, and at worst a concerted effort to avoid Trump having to answer very legitimate questions.

We have yet to see proof, only allegations. Clinton was under investigation for more than just Benghazi.

As for Deflecting it's the driving force behind, he shouldn't have won, she should have, so no unlike the others it is relevant.

None of what you said addresses the fact that Trump directly appealed to a foreign power to hack his opponent, all you've done is thrown out a few whataboutisms. Not interested, sorry.

You're ignoring all the contacts with Russia by Trump campaign figures, their deceptions about those contacts, etc.

[ganoushoreilly]

You can find just as many relationships with the Clinton's of questionable origin (China, Middle East). Both Candidates suck, Trump's a moron, but to think that Hillary's actions didn't create a circumstance for exploitation is throwing it out the window. The Russians do not like her, to think they wouldn't put forth efforts to meddle through social media manipulation is a joke. Hell, if you think we're not doing it to other countries that's a whole other argument.

I don't think being laser-focused on who as opposed to what and why is relevant or helpful by any means.
