Email Scandal: The 2016 presidential campaign put Clinton's email server under bright lights, making many voters question whether the candidate could be trusted. The scandal centered on whether the former secretary of state knowingly sent classified information through her private email sever. After a year-long investigation, FBI Director James Comey decided not to prosecute Clinton, even though the bureau revealed that Clinton sent and received more than 100 emails that contained classified information. Comey said in a statement that there was no "clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information."

Gay Marriage Flip -lopping: In 1996, Clinton supported the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), a federal law defining marriage as being between a man and woman. In 2002, when Clinton served as a New York senator, she told Chris Matthews she did not support legalizing gay marriage for her state, according to The Daily Caller. But after exiting her position as secretary of state in 2013, Clinton publicly stated her support for same sex marriage in a video for the Human Rights Campaign and recently defended her DOMA support, saying, in an interview with Rachel Maddow, that her backing of DOMA was a "defensive action" to stop the Republican-led momentum that could have banned gay marriage entirely.

White House Debt? Clinton once said she "came out of the White House not only dead broke, but in debt." In a 2014 interview with Diane Sawyer the presidential candidate said "We had no money when we got there, and we struggled to piece together the resources for mortgages for houses, for Chelsea's education. It was not easy." Politifact called her out on the claim reporting, "A few weeks before they left the White House, the Clintons were able to muster a cash down payment of $855,000 and secure a $1.995 million mortgage."
