Or does the law not apply to Hillary Clinton?
I'm just asking because it sure does seem like a double standard to me and millions of other people who are watching this.

I am not a lawyer nor an expert on the law so I don't know where the difference may lie between hiring someone to gather information and being given that information. That said, to me, both are wrong. Foreigners shouldn't be involved in our elections. If it's legal to hire a foreigner to gather dirty, it shouldn't be. If it's not legal, it needs to be investigated. We know it is illegal for a foreigner to give something of value to a campaign. Now that Trump has admitted they met with just such a person for just such a purpose, it makes this investigation perfectly fine.
