    lock her up.
    or string her up, whatever's easier.
    they look and act like a mob.

    discuss policy, like adults.
    or talk on the legacy of Republican party over the last 50 years...the 2 Bushes, Ronald Reagan, and Richard Nixon.
    How does DJT improve on them? What does he even stand for?

    I actually came into contact with with a semi drunk Trump "supporter" out in the wild and the anti-Hillary rhetoric is all he spoke about. Benghazi and emails and Whitewater without any depth of understanding what any of those things mean or how or why any of those things actually occurred. Just talking points. That, and "he's good at business".

    Moving money around in NYC real estate and casinos and running Trump University and being on TV doesn't make you "good at business".

    angry AND ill informed. a bad combo.

    None of that warrens or even gets an fbi investigation. Say what you want, but Hilary has been federally investigates. I find so retarded that you overlook absolutely major flaws in Clinton and want to persecute trump. You are no better than the people you think and want to be better than.
    As a Bernie supporter, those 2 bad choices are not of my doing, however, party lines work both ways and I will "eat the chicken".
    HC's flaws < DJT flaws all day long, son.

    ...and I am better than those people.

    The day I quote musicians, or listen to musicians for my political ideas, that's the day my brain stops working. Eddie was great friends with Johnny. You might not know this but Johnny Ramon was a republican gun slinging conservative

    I'm still supporting Trump in hopes that he will listen to his advisers, I still feel that Hillary is not fit to be POTUS and I still worry that Trump has a short fuse.......this election has been and will continue to be a game changer for politics', people are fed up and tired of the dirty business of politics' and this election could be a win win for everybody, meaning that elections in the future will be more involved and focused more on the needs of the American people and candidates doing right by the American people as well and not how it's been in the past.

    Godfather.

    I truly don't understand. People talk about change as though you are simply pro-change or anti-change - not as though change is a spectrum ranging from 'far worse' to 'far better'. Even that's an oversimplification. Just because Donald Trump would be a different politician than his predecessors, does not mean he would be a far better one.

    You don't understand this because you refuse to look at it from the otherside, and are buying way to much into what other people are selling you

    Have you followed the Trump campaign? His "advisers" (not sure we can actually call them that) are worse than him...

    This is what Republicans stand for....

    The first line in their preamble We believe in American exceptionalism, so they think all Americans are better than anyone else, which we definitely are not.

    Voting for Trump is like taking strychnine as medicine for a cold.

    Defending Marriage Against an Activist Judiciary

    Traditional marriage and family, based on
    marriage between one man and one woman,
    is the foundation for a free society and has for
    millennia been entrusted with rearing children
    and instilling cultural values.

    nice right?

    Places of worship for the first time in our history
    have reason to fear the loss of tax-exempt status merely
    for espousing and practicing traditional religious beliefs
    that have been held across the world for thousands of years,
    and for almost four centuries in America.

    We salute the Republican Congress for defending the right to keep and bear arms by
    preventing the President from installing a new liberal majority on the Supreme Court.

    Honest Elections and the Electoral College

    We oppose the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact and any other scheme to abolish or
    distort the procedures of the Electoral College. An unconstitutional effort to impose National Popular Vote would be a grave threat to our federal system and a guarantee of corruption, as every ballot box in every state would offer a chance to steal the presidency. We urge state legislatures that have voted for this proposal to rescind their approval.

    I'd stop now but are you effing kidding me?

    We support the development of all forms of energy that are marketable in a
    free economy without subsidies, including coal, oil, natural gas, nuclear power, and
    hydropower. A federal judge has struck down the BLM’s rule on hydraulic fracturing and we support upholding this decision.

    How so? You do realize 3 weeks ago both democrats and republicans both put yo two gun laws each, both struck down by each other, but none that would have prevented any of the mass shooting. You knew that right? Right?

    We demand an immediate halt to U.S. funding for the U.N.’s Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in accordance with the 1994 Foreign Relations Authorization Act. That law prohibits Washington from giving any money to “any affiliated organization of the United Nations” which grants Palestinians membership as a state. There is no ambiguity in that language. It would be illegal for the President to follow through on his intention to provide millions in funding for the UNFCCC and hundreds of millions for its Green Climate Fund.
    We firmly believe environmental problems are best solved by giving incentives for human
    ingenuity and the development of new technologies, not through top-down, command-and-control regulations that stifle economic growth and cost thousands of jobs.

    I'm only up to page 29 of 66 pages, sorry/not sorry.
