    I take @LorettaLynch & @billclinton at their word that their convo in Phoenix didn't touch on probe. But foolish to create such optics.

        but you said you were taking them at word that nothing improper was discussed. On what do you base that opinion?

        We have already a very upset electorate. Things like this create more proof that system is rigged.

        Much more than an issue of optics, as you well know. Taking at their word isn't way the law works.
