Presidential ‘seal’ of approval: Clinton campaigns with official POTUS seal

Not only is Clinton flying with Obama courtesy of Airforce One, he is also lending her the podium with the presidential seal to speak behind.

At first I thought it wasn't that big of a deal. However, the more I think about it, it really ticks me off! It almost seems like some blatant, in-your-face predictive programming: get used to it people. This is what things will look like in a few months.

I don't care if it took 10 minutes to swap podiums. The presidential seal should ONLY be used in connection with an actual POTUS! Not wannabes, or potential future Presidents.

What do you guys think? Am I reaching? Overreacting?

The link is to RT. The only reason I chose that one is due to the clearness of the picture. A quick search and there are multiple sources. www.rt.com...

It bothered me too. It smacks of her being more ordained by right than elected.

I also wondered if the Clinton campaign has to pay, at least in part, for use of Air Force One? I understand the necessary use of Air Force One for a Presidential re-election campaign, I can even understand the President obviously using it to get to a campaign event.

But Hillary hitching a ride for a photo op is a bit different.

It seems like a very irresponsible move by Obama. perhaps he's been "asked" to be accomodating. And by "asked", I mean told.

I am pretty frickin mad to hear that Hillary the cheat is getting special treatment by our Commander in Chief...

I saw the two of them coming off "air force one" like rock stars.....Why was HE spending taxpayers hard earned tax money "jet setting" around the country using AF/one as a taxi cab for a "candidate" in an election?. Above the law?.....

I mean told

Told by whom?? I thought he was a law unto himself.

I don't think you're overreaching here...
I mean the "blame-Obama&hate-Hillary" train runs 24/7 on ATS...

But even I tend to agree that this is a slap in the face of The People.

Posing with Potus, frosting on the "Hillary has been cleared" layer cake.

Told by whoever is actually calling the shots. We're talking about career politicians here.. they don't get to where they are at simply based on their own merit. It's all about making "them" happy and doing what they want so they keep you in power. Obama (and Hillary for that matter) is good at that evidently. He must be one of their star students

You see her standing behind that seal, you start thinking of her as President. It was meant to get that idea in people's heads. Nothing more. That a President allowed that, tells you all you need to know.

Because he's the president and he can. Everybody get good and outraged over nothing again.

With cherries on top.

Why can't the "Trump for President" Clowns see what is happening here. You don't have a vote, you don't have a choice. Trump is playing his part, he knows the outcome.

Good thing we're still on schedule to hold an election then huh?

a reply to: HoldMyBeer

They paid for the whole trip . No taxpayer money was used.

a reply to: FamCore

Why? Of course he's going to stump for his own party. When Reagan was the exiting president he stumped for GHWB . That's politics. She's not getting special treatment other than they're the same party.
Just another stupid reason to get outraged I guess. Y'all are going to give yourselves a coronary if ya don't calm down.

We all know it.

It looks bad and disrespectful to Americans mainly because that is not his plane. We paid for it and it should not be used in a political campaign. It also shows where his true loyalty resides and that is with a political party, not with the United States Government.

What people seem to be missing in all of this is that she is abusing taxpayers for her own gain and not even elected. So what is going to happen if she is elected? Yeah, it will be 100X worse I assure you. Even the Trump haters know what is going to happen if she gets in. She has no morale compass.

Hey OP where did you go? Drop a seed of hate and move on?. Plant your crop then walk away. Your job is to rile them up. No need to tend the thread when you work it just right.

She should get used to that seal in front of her.
But what about this Merrick Garland photo where he's behind the presidential podium?

Or any others on that page for people that spoke at the same event after the president.
But but but....

Over nothing? I assume you are referring to the email scandal that Clinton supporters said was a non issue?
This, from MSNBC no less, a Democrat playground.

Comey's remarks make it impossible for Democrats to claim the email issue was just the latest invention of a right-wing conspiracy out to get her.
