    Aside from posting something regergetated from I guess Twitter, how much of this can you honestly justify vs just repeating and reposting? Honest sincere question.

    I find it interesting that the Republicans have had 2 straight days of Clinton bashing and not one word has been spoken about policy. Very telling.

    Trump hasn't mentioned ANY cohesive policy positions the entire time he's been running. It's all poll numbers and whining.

    Seems to be working so far.

    If you support Clinton, why does it bother you? You shouldn't care what the GOP is doing. I mean unless you consider federal investigation a decent thing to he worried about, why bother?

    Indeed I am. Very comfortable with my vote, in fact.

    Someone is defensive about the GOP, I see.

    Paul Ryan's cliches sounded awesome last night. I would sincerely be behind the many of them, if he wasn't completely full of shit.

    Not at all. I'm actually defensive about one sided blind voting. Voting uneducatedly. Guess it happens when you get a bit worldly and realize the danger of forced voting. I trust you've done your part and are going to vote for who you think is right.

    That is in fact the case.

    How many people are voting because of Benghazi and emails?

    Who knows, but aren't they great questions and things to consider when voting for the next president? My fiancé is from Peru, and a poly geo major. Needless to say we have very interesting conversations about this election. Scary comparisons to either candidate that wins

    Benghazi and emails? I am comfortable that after millions of taxpayers dollars on both situations, that I can vote the way I am with a good conscience. It is truly amazing that this happened before the 2012 election and we are still talking about it. I am not a big Hillary fan. I think she is too hawkish and a mediocre politician, but blows the alternative out of the water.

    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.

    How are you even remotely comfortably with that? She's got one investigation down, one more to go, but these are just witch hunts to you? Naw, she's terrible, and should have never even been remotely under any investigation. That seriously doesn't make you pause and wonder what the fuck?
  • mattsl1983mattsl1983 Posts: 711
    That's scary, the fact the people are more concerned with a spouse possibly plagerising vs the fact that the other candidate has been under federal investigation, even to the point where the head of the fbi says she's acted negligent, and careless with classified information. Like that scares the shit out of me, how people can just gloss over that and say, "well she wasn't guilty". She should have never has received be investigated in the first place!!! Oj Simpson wasn't found guilty!

    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.

    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.

    How many times and how much money needs to be wasted to tell you that Hilary Clinton is not the reason 4 people died in benghazi? We call it a witch hunt because after 8 investigations that turn up zero evidence, it is a witch hunt.

    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?

    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".

    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.

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