The problem is that your cartoon strawman of the situation is indeed as ridiculous as you make it sound, and I too would agree with you that it's nonsense -- if your telling of the situation matched with reality.
There obviously exists all sorts of protocols for dealing with (insert situation) that by their nature must be done in secrecy. That they'd just publicly arrest Hillary Clinton -- with all the civic unrest that would cause -- would be a foolish move, but would they have a choice if it could be proven that she was literally an asset of a hostile foreign power?
Therefore, is your entire argument built on the idea that because we DIDN'T see something happen, it never happened, and therefore everything since is also false?
How do you account for the John McCain 30 day incident?

You really believe this, don't you?
