This type of comment tends to get down voted on HN, as is already happening. FWIW I agree with you, but the dispassionate rationalists among us will argue that equally applying the rule of law is more important that preventing a potentially dangerous demagogue from taking power. Of course, theres no way that the a trial could occur, let alone an investigation be completed, before the election at this point, so that argument doesn't really apply IMO. If HRC loses because of this, it will simply have been a trial by public opinion, not the rule of law. Others could also argue that, despite his statements that have shown utter contempt for and ignorance of American law, history and political norms, he doesn't actually have a track record in one direction or another and is just saying those things to elicit support from his base. We can only hope...
