former Republican top national security officials signed onto a letter arguing that Trump lacks the experience and judgment to be president, and that he would "jeopardize the nation's safety." There's some real heavy-hitters included too, mostly drawing on Cabinet officers, intelligence agents, trade reps, national security advisors, and ambassadors. This is just damning.

...If Hillary didn't mishandle classified info...
I won't tell you to stop because I'll admit I get a good laugh every time one of you guys repeats this ad nauseam, but you do realize that that didn't actually happen in reality, right? The whole nothingburger amounted to
3 emails: 2 of them marked in error, and the third "classified correctly but marked improperly."
Below that there were 110 that "contained information" that wasn't marked, but this is where
some agencies (including the FBI) argue that the aides "should have known" was sensitive, even though, again, they weren't marked. It's this exact "But how can you expect them to know they were sensitive if they weren't or required to be marked?" conundrum that makes this entire issue nothing but a case of inter-agency squabbling. Clinton didn't mishandle classified intelligence.
Edit: Had to add that they were all former Republican officials.
