Assuming Trump doesn't radically change his behavior or his campaign, what kind of scandal would it actually take to sink Hillary? I doubt something more about e-mails could come out to harm her. Maybe something about her past or Bill's past? Something about the foundation?

Probably another FBI probe. Of if Clinton starts actually talking like Trump.

With no change from the idiotic orange fascist narcissist, it'll take a dead girl, or high-def video with full audio of her taking bribe money from known terrorists.


Trump is awful beyond belief, and the endless GOP poop-flinging at her has mostly immunized her to anything less.

Maybe if she shot someone on fifth avenue, Trump would pull narrowly ahead, at least in the immediate aftermath.

I'd assume that Clinton's maverick move at the final debate of sticking a dead puppy up her hoo-ha while reciting the Lord's Prayer backwards and in tongues didn't receive glowing reviews.

Proof of the murder of Shawn Lucas would do it.

It would take a clear "pay to play" pattern of behavior involving the Clinton Foundation and HRC when she was Secretary of State.  That, and Trump buttoning up his campaign and appearing more wonkish.

I agree that the chaos surrounding the Trump campaign has kept him from getting the benefit of the steady drip, drip, drip of corruption that could cause Hillary's campaign to die of 1,000 cuts.

What makes you think this will do the trick when an actual FBI investigation into her emails while SoS didn't? Trump so far, with his non-stop outbursts and offensive remarks, has shielded her from the first attempt to damage her campaign with CF-related business. He'll probably continue this pattern right through November.

If this is what you're hoping will be the straw that broke the camel's back, well... Have fun with that

Something in the emails a lot more disturbing, blowing up big. A portion of her support is soft and could flake off to Johnson if they still wouldn't go to Trump. Johnson has a chance at playing spoiler one way or another in this election.

Aside from the fact that she deserves to serve prison time for a blatant pattern of pay-for-play politics between the Clinton Foundation/Bill Clinton, the office of the Secretary of State and foreign governments/dubious private actors?

Example: The Keystone XL pipeline needs clearance to build the pipeline from the State Department. The decision lies in Hillary's hands.

TD Dominion Bank has a serious investment in the project.
Despite never sanctioning a Bill Clinton speech before, they magically invite Clinton to make a few six-figure speeches.
Hillary grants the application.

If this happened once, it would be coincidence. But when it happens over and over and over again, it's corruption.

This whole thing stinks to high heaven.
