Frogfishing

The Hillary Clinton campaign was catfished--by a frog:

Hillary Clinton’s campaign has published a parody of Vox, the liberal news site for young adults. Headline: “Donald Trump, Pepe the Frog, and White Supremacists: An Explainer.” Subheadline: “That cartoon frog is more sinister than you might realize.”

The campaign fell for a complete joke that a cartoon frog had been hijacked by white supremisists.

Doesn't get email security. Doesn't get Internet jokes.

This is horrifying. What can you do? Don't vote for Hillary.

To be fair, the parody Clinton site is as valuable as the actual Vox.

UPDATE: More revelations about Clinton's email. Had a Republican administration done this, there would have been prosecutions by now. But our FBI just pretended to investigate this issue.

What the Hell? If we are going to be a banana republic and not a nation of rule of law, we might as well have a banana republic-quality leader. We'll have that regardless of who wins, eh?
