    I stopped watching Legal Eagle about a month ago for two reasons:

    1. I watched him as a legal professional to get a better insight on what might come. It’s disappointing that he’s been continuously blindsighted by the events, no matter how crazy these events are. I don’t gain any insight on what will happen.

    2. Recently, he had another lawyer do a piece where they mentioned Hillary Clinton’s email account, and since I usually trust this channel, I felt so gaslit I had to pause the video and search up what the scandal was. Lo and behold, it was an email server. Which means the only thing I fact-checked him on was wrong.

    So I don’t gain anything by watching him, and I can’t trust exactly what he says. For a law channel, that’s enough for me to stop watching.

      You’re being unnecessarily pedantic about your second point. To most people an “email account” is going to mean an email address and mailbox, which is what she had, on her insecure personal email server.

      Reason 1: ??? Reason 2: A different person mixed up email account with email server

      Damn, that’s unforgivable. What a fraud.

          What did he say about them? It sounds like he said account instead of server which sounds like a mistake someone may make. I understand the importance of rigor, but was there more? If not lie feels like a little much especially since you are asking here “why”.
