presidential candidates

Little bit of advice folks. Might want to start being nicer to any family and friends and co-workers who support Trump. You've been a bunch of bullies, so sure you were going to win. I can not post links, so google "Scott Adams Trump Man of science" The problem with science is it can not take...

Both Clinton and Trump will be speaking at the same dinner tonight at which the expectation (from past years) is humorous remarks about both the other candidate and themselves...let's see how that works out. Trigger warning: It's a Catholic news website. :eye-poppi "...The venue Thursday...

The thread was beginning to run slowly, so I have split to this part 7. As usual, the split point was arbitrary and members may freely quote from previous iterations of the thread. I was thinking it was more like the people who think that Obama's parents put the birth announcement in...

Look at Trump's speech: "you're all ********** up, because of the system. I know that, because I'm part of it. I'm the ones *********** you up." Looks similar to Bernie Sanders speech, actually. They are all populists. Trump aims at the system, Hillary aims at Wall Street, but she gets money...

Just for fun, here are some songs that sort of represent 2016 presidential candidates. I listed the candidates in order fom liberal to conservative. What songs do you see that match the various presidential candidates? Gloria La Riva - Guantanamera and De Colores Jill Stein - Waimanalo Blues...

Cut Ties To Trump, Big Donors Urge RNC (NY Times) It really is a day of reckoning for the GOP, exciting as all heck. Be held hostage by the Deplorables and do the bidding of the sickest politician in modern history, or cut them off and rebuild from scratch with the 25% sliver of the electorate...

Thought I would get the next debate thread started. The topics for the third presidential debate (Oct 19) have been announced, to be moderated by Chris Wallace. 1. Debt and entitlements 2. Immigration 3. The economy 4. The Supreme Court 5. Foreign hot spots 6. The candidates’ fitness to be...

Hillary Clinton is the most despicable person to ever run for POTUS. She started three wars, causing the deaths of tens of thousands of innocents. And then she laughed about the vile murder of Gaddafi(who, to be fair, should have been stopped because he permitted the women of Libya free...

He is the freaking nominee of their trash party and most rank and file Republicans and elected Republican "leaders" support him. So how could he possibly not be a Republican? Obviously, he makes them look bad, but that's their problem.

Hello all. In a further display of audacious self-immolation, the Donald is now trying to destroy both himself and the Republican Party. As for my opinion, I do hope that he succeeds at both since the Republican leadership is so full of stupid, idiotic, liars and about the best thing for the...

A lot of the Alt-Right are aghast as conservative shock radio DJ, Glenn Beck, posted to his Facebook that Trump has gone too far, and issued a call to support Hillary in the election saying that a vote for her is the "moral, ethical choice." He does go on to say that once elected that...

The thread was beginning to run slowly, so I have split to this part 6. As usual, the split point was arbitrary and members may freely quote from previous iterations of the thread. Saying stupid things IS doing stupid things when you're the President. FYI.

I think the problem isn't that there's a double standard for Trump. I think the problem is that Hillary's supporters keep trying to apply the same standard to both candidates. Because they think Hillary will look better by comparison than she looks on her own terms. But the two candidates are...

http://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-cuban-embargo-castro-violated-florida-504059 Yet more proof that Donald Trump is a crooked scumbag. Will Republicans care? Almost certainly not. It is OK to be a crooked scumbag as long as you are a Republican.

that he respects. Had another "Allepo moment" he says. Says the former president of Mexico though he can't say which one. Does he still smoke a lot of weed or what? Donald Trump could probably answer the question, though it would likely be Vladimir Putin. And this joker thinks he should be...

Yeah...I know it sounds crazy, but Trump is not the worst of all worlds. Trump is a phoney. Trump is basically dishonest. Even his followers know it. As a result, the American people are safe from a real demagogue. (for a little while longer, at least) As Noam Chomsky once said: "The...

:jaw-dropp So, normally the secret service agents pay their own way to accompany the candidates. But in this case, they are paying Trump to fly on Trump's plane. The more he travels the more he makes. Trump received $1.6 million from Secret Service I do wonder why Clinton's costs are $1...

I would bet my life that they would be up in arms about it. Yet none of them give the slightest **** that their "leader" is. Hillary was wrong. It isn't half of Donald followers that are deplorable. It is 100% of them.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-used-258000-from-his-charity-to-settle-legal-problems/2016/09/20/adc88f9c-7d11-11e6-ac8e-cf8e0dd91dc7_story.html Yet more proof that Donald is a crooked piece of ****. Of course, Donald's worthless scum followers won't give a **** all the while...

Yeah, it's the only six-second clip that's been playing for the last several hours. So much for all those 9/11 tribute shows...

The main question of this election is: how did Trump become the Republican nominee? Instead of finding reasons why he should not be, I'm wondering what makes him such a credible candidate for so many Americans? Here are some of my musings on the subject: ENVY plenty of people want what...

With Trumpards asking whether Hillary has had a stroke, it seems perfectly reasonable to ask if Trump is suffering from the first stages of dementia. Often, the first sign is memory loss. Mr Trump has claimed to have a great memory, yet in recent interviews, he shows signs of having an...

Why is the issue of his donations to prosecutors who then promptly dropped the charges of fraud against trump not an issue? That is a much tighter connection than the pay for play clinton foundation issue that gets lots of air time...

Fortune magazine writes Let's hope that Trump isn't allowed to run the US. Thread was getting long again, split from here.

Presidential Debate Moderators Are Set, With Lester Holt for the First I wish that they would have included Jorge Ramos.

Looks like some negotiation will need to be entered into after all. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/aug/31/donald-trump-mexico-meeting-president-pena-nieto-immigration

...and Worked Illegally Not to mention Donald profited by cramming a bunch of them in an apartment and taking a ridiculous cut of their modeling fees for rent. http://m.motherjones.com/politics/2016/08/donald-trump-model-management-illegal-immigration

Former member here, Robert Morrow, who was elected the Republican Party Chair of Travis County, Texas, was "removed" from the grounds at a Trump rally. Morrow, whose views on, um, unique in some ways, wore a jester cap and had a large "TRUMP IS A CHILD RAPIST" sign...

There have been a number of conspiracies out there that Donald Trump is running a fake campaign to: Help Hillary win by running a purposefully self destructive campaign. Possibly to help her win against such a weak opponent when she would have had a much harder time against a serious candidate...
