The lack of critical thinking skills on the internet never ceases to amaze me, like you having the gall to think Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama are anywhere close to having similar controversy surrounding their political careers.
What does Obama have to do with anything? I was snarking at Trump supporters willing to handwave away 89 Wikipedia pages of Trump scandals "because of her emails"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Donald_Trump_controve...

(for reference, Hillary Clinton's list is less than half the size https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Hillary_Clinton_contr... and she was never POTUS)

I'm pretty sure both of you agree with each other ...
It's not a factual statement. It's like saying "your mom's a whore". Showing her tax returns won't help.

The correct response is to just ignore/abandon them, which actually pisses off narcissists more than you know.
