        Bigger problems for HRC and her campaign for sure. More proof HRC/Trump aren't to be trusted.

        I do not think Trump and HRC are in any way comparable. HRC is a normal politician.

        challenge with that is that Trump is more dangerous on every issue and 1 has to be president.

        In this context, if expansion was violative of the 4th Amend, is suppression the remedy or is there a preemptive action?
