The FBI raid on Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate and the Hillary Clinton email server scandal involve entirely different situations and may or may not have anything to do with January 6. Nevertheless, the former Democratic presidential candidate can still have a little fun based on the reversal of fortunes currently taking place (via Politico).First, a quick recap of the 2016 FBI investigation, which resulted in Director James Comey ultimately finding that there was insufficient evidence to press charges against Clinton for allegedly using a personal email server to convey sensitive information. Many claimed that even though the former first lady was not charged with any crimes, the inquiry itself was a significant factor in why she lost the election to Donald Trump, with the timing at best suspect (via The Guardian).
Of course, Trump was never lenient with regard to the problem involving Clinton and even continued to discuss it from the oval office.Hillary Clinton is amusing herself on her own dime.
As Hillary Clinton noted on Twitter, the erstwhile front-runner for the position of president of the United States isn't ready to put the past behind her and is instead visibly enjoying a moment of smugness over the FBI raid at Mar-a-Lago. The former senator for New York stated, "Every 'But her emails' cap or shirt sold helps @onwardtogether partners preserve democracy, create a progressive bench, and fight for our ideals," while flaunting a hat with a sarcastic phrase.Then Clinton said, "Just saying!"
An organization called Onward Together works to pursue the goal that was almost achieved in 2016 and supports liberal candidates who wish to run for public office.
The hats, meanwhile, appear to have been so well-liked that they were rapidly sold out. Clinton returned to Twitter to inform her followers that the product is now available for pre-order, and that a "crisis averted."
It's important to note that not all previous presidential contenders and Trump's adversaries have reacted to the raid using the same strategy of self-promotion. For instance, Andrew Yang made the contentious contention that the FBI's action will only serve to broaden the support of conservatives.
