do you think the people control America now ? it's loaded question for sure with too many reasons to believe yes or no.Gern Blansten said:
yeah...the peopleGodfather. said:
yea, who knows ? I see this election getting real crazy..to be honest with you, if the government is half as corrupt as we(American people) think it is then that bag of gut's Hell'ary will be president and if that happens you'll know who controls America.mrussel1 said:
Bad news GF.. the Muslim thing was only a 'suggestion' by Trump. He's already trying to back away from the crazy ass shit he said to win the nomination. What's next?Godfather. said:
simply put, the bigger problem with terrorism has been muslims, yes America has it's own problems with it terrorist but the biggest problem facing national security has been muslim people attacking with ISIS beliefs....and that's on a world stage.Degeneratefk said:
How so? What's misunderstood? Timothy McVeigh isn't a terrorist? He wasn't a Muslim sympathizer so he doesn't count? Dylan Roof isn't a terrorist because he didn't walk into that church screaming Allah akbar or whatever it is they say?Godfather. said:
I have a feeling that most of those were people who obtained legal citizenship or were here illegally or were ISIS sympathizers of middle eastern origin, no offense but that home grown terrorist thing is a little misunderstood in my opinion. it's the back-lash of easy entry into our country for all these years.Degeneratefk said:Most of the terrorists attacks in this country over the last 10 years were American. Home grown. How will shutting down all immigration stop terrorism?
Godfather.
with all the death and distruction they have caused globally I think that tossing out the "what about American terrorist" is just making excuses for a vile and disgusting group of people that hate American to start with.
and T. McVeigh was put to death by the American people and where is Dylan Roof right now ?

I know this won't be a popular view because it' runs contra to conventional wisdom, but this country has never been LESS corrupt and MORE inclusive than it is today. If you think money influencing politics is new to the last 20 years, you haven't studied history at all. Since the Republics of Rome and Greece, elections and politicians have always been for sale. Today, we have more information, quicker than ever. It makes us think things have changed. They haven't. It's just more transparent.
Where we are infinitely better today than every in our history are in the civil rights arena, for minorities, gays, women, etc. There's this horrible negative perception that permeates this country but our economy is stronger than any other in Europe and Asia and our liberties are strong. We just need to keep moving forward0 -

Interesting article.
Whether you are for or against Trump there is no doubt that he is hiding something big on those tax returns.
I can't believe the media is letting him get away with the "I can't release them until the audit is done" excuse. My guess is that they will start hammering him pretty hard.
What's he hiding? (in my opinion)
1. Losses....big losses on investments, business ventures, etc.
2. Low (or no) charitable contributions
3. Foreign activity that is going to be hard to explainRemember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)

we all do our taxes to get the best return or lowest pay out, he is betting on a whole different level than guy's like me or you so his gains and losses will be much higher but I'll bet he has bigger charitable contributions than you think just because guy's like him need to have those for taxes but foreign activities will be interesting to see, even if he does is that so different from any other business in the States ?Gern Blansten said:http://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/author-i-saw-trumps-tax-returns-and-you-should-too/ar-BBsXtYe

A great businessman's tax return will reflect that. Business losses give the political enemy ammo to say "yeah this great businessman just lost $1,000,000 on this business and $1,000,000 on that business and avoided paying $600,000 in federal tax at the same time"
Foreign activities would show that he's a fucking liar...while he's going around saying we need to penalize companies for going overseas he is going overseas in pursuit of the almighty $$.Remember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)

Agreed. Trump has set himself up with a specific standard by talking points and bragging. It's the fundamental basis of his campaign. Romney was a businessman, but he also had substantial governing experience. He would be wise to release them before the convention to try to get it out of the way. The pressure will mount. Every reporter will ask. Every opinion writer will criticize.

It's all good with Hispanics now...Trump loves taco bowls
It's just so ridiculous - the taco bowl of all things (which apparently isn't on the menu at Trump Tower at all) - that I think maybe he was being facetious, and this was actually a deliberate "fuck you" to Hispanics. If that isn't the case, same diff, really.josevolution said:
It's fucking insulting for him to think hey let me tweet some nice things about the Hispanics that'll bring them over to my side , I got for one don't know s single Spanish or black voter that will give him the nod I live here on Long Island and work with many Spanish & black coworkers that simply de spice this guy !!!PJ_Soul said:

You still have a lot of Sanders supporters who are undecided. I feel confident they will join. Elections are about choices. It's not about who you want, it's about the options. When the debates turn to the SCOTUS, choice, civil rights, etc., there will be a stark difference. The bigger worry is Florida. If Ohio and PA tighten up, Hillary will have to capture NC, perhaps NV and some other states that are traditionally not necessary.dignin said:Hope this is just a blip and not a trend....

They just want it to be done.
The whole world knows where the candidates left in the race stand. So for the love of all things holy pick one!
Why is there 6mos left for you guys to decide? - This is crazy.
Trump said very early that he was done with debates on TV because he has nothing left to say. He was right and is left standing.
Hillary or Trump will be the next POTUS so just vote already, seriously.

I know that. That's why I said 6mos left.
I was mixing some points in with others.
America needs serious electoral reform or at the very least shorten the length of the process.
Do you not think it is ridiculous?
