Why do you support Hillary?

What does that have to do with Trump being a serial sexual predator and probable child rapist?

You have not presented any real evidence of either 2. But I think Trump is probably an atheist and since he supports killing children before they are born, it would not surprise me if he also would rape them as well.


MOD NOTE:

Your petty trolling is becoming really tiresome.

Consider this your final warning!

It seems to me like pure pragmatism that thankfully I don't have to partake in. Like the choice between someone pissing on your carpet or a maniac pissing down your throat. Sure having a puddle of piss on your nice rug is inconvinient but its better than the other option.

Hilary isn't that bad. She's just a regular politician. The kind that always piss on your rug cause that's what they do. They give non-commital answers, speak in soundbites, make promises they won't keep, and so on. She has experience though and she'll give you the status quo.

Trump on the other hand is a swaggering fuck train to hell. If he wins future geologists will pinpoint the collapse of civilization to the Obama/Trump boundary, where a mysterious layer of placards with the the slogan "make America great again" resides in the geological column. That might sound like hyperbole, but to have a climate change denier in the most powerful office on earth at a point in time when we pretty much have to leave all the rest of the fossil fuels in the ground or we are totally fucked is civilizational suicide. Maybe I overstated things a bit, but I strongly feel that this is the case. We're probably fucked anyway, but Trump is a certified way to stagger in a coked up frenzy towards the apocalypse.

You know I honestly believe that Trump wouldn't be as much of a disaster as president as people fear. Sure he has ego the size of the Halleys comet, temper worse than my 6 year old niece and skillset more akin to an armadillo, but I do think much of the rhetoric is pandering to the hard line republican voters. So, like most politicans but to the Nth degree, he's stances would chance when he got into office.

Then again does one want to take the risk that he is just as unhinged as he portrays him self to be?

P.S. That Trump coke thing is just silly. Like republican silly, which is the gold standard of sillyness in American politics.

That's not why he's dangerous. It's because he doesn't care about the position beyond the right to brag about it. This gives opportunity to people like Peter Thiel, let alone his VP. Pence with the reins is one of the worst outcomes.

Greetings,

In my opinion, Trump is a negative populist - he's tapping into, and selling, fear and loathing.

Like a lot of moguls, he's gone through life being used to getting whatever he wants - I can't see him sitting quietly in the WH being told what he can and can't do by Congress. The Republicans may complain about Obama's executive over-reach - for which they are responsible, since they wouldn't work with him on anything - but wait until Trump wins the WH, he'll be telling everybody else what to do.

He appears to be all façade with little substance.

One thing I found interesting was a comment by someone from the SNL show: Trump was eating sweets by the handful.

This is symptomatic of someone who's used to instant gratification - which helps explain his comments about just going in for kissing - or groping - women he fancies without their consent.

There were some studies done where a child was left in a room with a plate of biscuits, and told not to touch them by the researcher before leaving the room.

They found a correlation in that those who didn't touch the biscuits - or waited the longest before doing so - had a higher IQ.

Kindest regards,

James

Today I've learnt that Trump wants to introduce a limit on how many terms MP can serve. 6 years for one chamber and 12 for the other.
Looks like he has more good ideas than Hillary. It's ok to vote for him.

The limitations on lobbying also sound nice. I mean if you can't serve but two terms and can't join a big lobbying block after that the politicians might have to to some actual work after serving. Though claiming that the term limits will end government corruption and economic stagnation (for some undefined reason) is more than a bit optimistic.

In the event that this was true, the good would still need to outweigh the bad. It doesn't.

They're not his ideas however, just something from someone else's playbook he's regurgitating to give the illusion that he has policy ideals. Playing to the crowd, nothing he could actually pass or would even be bothered trying to pass.

It seems the FBI really does not want her to be the next President. It must be because Hillary Clinton has evidence of massive corruption at the Federal Bureau of Investigation which she will finally be able to expose once elected.

They are probably working with the KGB :) .

More likely is that Comey as a republican thinks that he'll be replaced as the director in the Clinton administration and wanted to get a foot in the possible Trump train. After all he is a pretty hard line republican. It was very much like Obama to appoint him as part of his "lets do what republicans want and maybe they won't block everything I try" initiative (which was an abysmal failure). I haven't heard anyone claim (before you that is) that it was because the FBI is corrupt (didn't Trump actually claim that the FBI was corrupt when they didn't find any illegalities in the Clinton email scandal?).

That's just guessing though but the timing on that non-information was pretty telling I think.

Would require Congress to vote it into law. Good luck with that. It's nothing more than vaporware leaking from a gasbag.
I believe that quite a few of Trumps declarations are such that he can't just speak them into existence even if he is the president. As hard as Trump would want to be a dictator, in the US president have limits to their power.

Should Trump become president I believe he would been in for a somewhat rude awakening as to what the POTUS can actually do.

The woman who said Trump raped her when she was 13 has dropped her case. I don't think this is how the system should work.

She admitted that she made the whole thing up.
