Here's a great article on the non-secret arrangement:
Yeah, About That 'Mysterious' $400 Million... The Stupid is spreading.

That was a good read, thank you. From your link:
In fact, most of the resistance to Hillary initially was about how “smug” she was in pushing that “Universal Health Care” agenda. How dare she want all people to have health insurance–why that means that health care is a community health problem–there she goes again, with a mind of her own! Furthermore, apparently she was not behaving as a First Lady should. What the hell is that? How should a First Lady behave? The intense misogyny is too overwhelming to ignore here, and sadly, we are all implicated in this system of oppression. Just this past June, Hillary was shredded by the media for the Armani jacket she wore. Really? The day she was announced as the Democratic Nominee for President, it was a picture of her husband that made the front page of the paper. This is some intense sexism at work. Did anyone ask what Bill Clinton was wearing and who designed it?
I remember the visceral hatred of Hillary during the Universal Health care days (and ever after), followed by the fainter, but similar, current visceral hatred of Michelle Obama. It's not rational.
Some of you may remember me saying Trump will be out in August? It might have been in T Hall 'Trump will win' thread? Now you may disagree, yet here is the fact.
When the candidate cannot get along with his chosen VP, it means he will lose the election!
It is not Hillary Clinton who has managed to defeat Trump, rather it is his own big mouth, as well, his stupid decisions. He may have gained many who bothered with the primaries, yet his lack of cooperation with other Republicans will not attract undecided voters who dislike Clinton. His unwillingness to accept members of his own party places him outside regular party politics. His action will make all hard democrats, some who strongly dislike Clinton, yet will choose her because they see Trump as a lose cannon. Women on both sides of the isle will dislike Trump for his apparent hostilities. The independent vote will go to Clinton because so many people now think Trump is a dangerous self-promoting kook!
Donald Trump, always the clown, fails at being a shrewd politician and this fact, is the reason I posted he would be out in August!

All very good thoughts by Trump. We have an enemy that wants to kill all of us. All of them are in the same religion.

And they are stupid for not caring. Some people only care about what the MSM wants them to care about.
Email is not an issue. Email proved she is lying, not just mistaken. Just like "man made global warming". It proved they are not just mistaken, but are in fact liars.

She was exposing state secrets. This subjects America to blackmail.
Yes. Top Secret/Special Access Program information is extremely sensitive. Incredible that Clinton gets a pass.
It was Trump's proposal to ban Muslim immigration that triggered the response by the Khan's at the DNC Convention and it was his criticism that forced the 2 top ranking members of the Republican Party to come to their defense!
Both have characterized Trump's Muslim immigration policy as "contrary to American values,” signaling that they consider it "unconstitutional" and they would not consent to introducing such legislation in Congress.

Which is a far cry from the original accusation by gcthomas:
Because Trump had thoroughly denounced the role of Muslims in the US.

Unfortunately, that essay posed nothing but 'symptoms'. And contrary to it's title, I saw no suggestion of an actual cause for these symptoms.
My own personal suggestion as to the root cause of why Americans have slid into this morass of stupidity and selfishness, is commercial advertising. Children born in the later 1950s grew up in a sea of commercial advertising that told them every day of their lives, many times a day, that they could have anything they wanted (for a price) and that they SHOULD have it! They deserved it! And the more of it they could get, the more important and respectable and happy they will be in their society.
The "greed is good" buz-phrase may have been coined by Milton Freedman, but the message was created on Madison Avenue by commercial advertisers, and it has been reiterated in their ads thousands of times a day, in every public medium, every decade since. So that by the time these second tier baby-boomers became adults (the TV generation) and began influencing politics and business (the late 1970s, early 1980s), they were fully convinced of the truth of that message, and very capable of following it through. And the result is that they have been steadily and inexorably tearing the fabric of this nation's government and economic systems apart, for their own selfish gain, ever since.
The republican party may have been more aligned with this greed meme, initially, thanks to Reagan's epic inadequacy as a leader. But the greed generation now populates both parties almost to the man. And every decision now being made by our government, state and federal, regardless of which party is in charge, is being made based on the personal greed of the people involved in making it, and not on the well-being of the nation or it's people.
Did Captain Khan, a Muslim American, give his life for his country in 2004 so that Donald Trump, who had repeatedly sought for exemptions from military service, can impose a ban on all Muslim immigration in 2016?
Not only is such a proposal "unconstitutional," it dishonors the sacrifices made by Muslim Americans and their families!
