President Donald Trump took to Twitter on Thursday to note several Hillary Clinton scandals that went unpunished.
Trump's tweet was likely responding to his critics claiming that he committed obstruction of justice after former FBI Director James Comey testified that the president told him to "let go" of the investigation into former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn.
Trump's tweet pointed out that Clinton "destroyed phones" with a hammer, "bleached" her emails, and noted former President Bill Clinton's meeting with former Attorney General Loretta Lynch on a tarmac in June 2016. Lynch denied touching on "government business" during the 30-minute meeting.
Crooked H destroyed phones w/ hammer, 'bleached' emails, & had husband meet w/AG days before she was cleared- & they talk about obstruction?

Trump's hammer comment was referring to a Clinton aide who destroyed her old phones with a hammer, which is not allowed under State Department rules. His reference to "bleached" emails is likely referring to Bleachbit, a program Clinton's team used to delete emails from her personal server. The FBI later discovered emails that Clinton was ordered to give over yet failed to do so.
Trump sent out an additional tweet asking why the Clintons' and Democrats' "dealings with Russia" were not being investigated.
Why is that Hillary Clintons family and Dems dealings with Russia are not looked at, but my non-dealings are?
