They were never going to vote for Hillary in the first place and I doubt they voted for Obama. I seriously think this will be the most lopsided loss in history. I'm amazed he won the primary. Fucking amazed.

    While I don't doubt it will fall in the landslide category for Hillary, I don't think we're going to touch most lopsided in history. Regan absolutely embarassed his Democrat opponents in 80 and 84 with Carder only winning 7 States and 49 electoral votes in '80 and Mondale taking the most epic of beat downs in '84 winning only 1 state (plus DC) and 13 electoral votes.

    We're not seeing that again. We're too polarized. A significant portion of the country is voting red or blue no matter what.

    Cult like? Yesterday a crowd of supporters CHEERED for a raise on middle class taxes...slip of the tongue(hopefully?) from the anointed one sure, but talk about a cult following. Trump does everything wrong, just look at the headlines.
  • Automatik
    Ahhh there is it. "Just look at the headlines"

    I love the defense. It's the media!


    How about this. My opinion on Trump come directly from the stuff that comes out of his mouth and also what he doesn't say. Isn't it time he starts talking policy? I know his nutswingers don't care about actual substance because "he will get it done", but I'm genuinely interested.
  • rocketalum
    Right!, Damn media using video of him speaking his own words as a way to make him look bad.

    I haven't made any decision yet. I care only about things that directly affect me and my business. Have you tried any of the tax calculators out?

    I like the idea of more money in my pocket.

    Yes, same here. Unfortunately I'm rather fucked anyway regarding location. See my location.

    First, I sincerely question the metrics this is using to make these predictions.

    And beyond that, it of course assumes that, for the first time in modern US history, the eventual president will make good on campaign promises.

    "Read my lips" comes to mind.

    Trump and Hillary are both goofy as hell. Probably two of the most goofiest of our times. However, looking back over the times past, we had others who was just as goofy for their time. I'm not all that upset about it anymore, looking at things in that perspective.

    Another excellent letter:


    Dear Mr. Khan,
    [INDENT]I want to preface this letter by stating that I respect your son’s sacrifice for this great nation. By all accounts, he is a true hero that sacrificed himself in service to our country. For that I am thankful.
    As a veteran, I watched your comments at the Democratic National Convention with a mixture of sadness, and anger. The United States has a military comprised of volunteers. Every single member has made the conscious choice to join the military and serve. There is not a single service member who has been forced into service. It is important for all service members (and apparently, their families) to understand that service to this great nation does not imbue one with special privileges or rights. I found your comments troubling when you said: “Have you ever been to Arlington cemetery? Go look at the graves of brave patriots who died defending the United States of America. You will see all faiths, genders and ethnicities. You have sacrificed nothing and no one.”
    Does it matter whether Mr. Trump has sacrificed “…nothing and no one?”…has Ms. Clinton “..sacrificed” for this nation? How about Mr. Obama? Your comment stating that Mr. Trump “…has sacrifice no one” is alarming. Are you intimating that YOU sacrificed? Sir, your son willingly sacrificed himself. As a father I cannot imagine the pain you must feel but his sacrifice is his own. He was not forced to serve.
    I am troubled that you would allow a party that has little more than contempt for the US Service Member to parade you into the DNC to denounce Donald Trump. Did you watch when protesters at the DNC booed and heckled Medal of Honor recipient Capt. Florent Groberg? Did you notice your party interrupting the moment of silence for slain police officers? Your own hypocrisy in not denouncing these acts and instead using the DNC as a platform to make a political point is disgraceful. The simple fact is that whether one served or sacrificed does not give greater power to their statements. One vote is as valuable as another. That sir, is why our Country is great. Your condemnation of one person for a statement while standing idly as your party disparages veterans and police officers is the height of hypocrisy.
    To conflate the need to prevent potential terrorists from entering our country with the belief that ‘all Muslims’ should be banned is simply wrong and disingenuous. As a reminder, Mr. Trump said: ” “Until we are able to determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it poses, our country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in Jihad, and have no sense of reason or respect for human life,” The irony of your son’s own death at the hands of these very people in Iraq should not be ignored. I have little doubt that your son would have recognized the need to protect our country from these very people. In fact, he held is own troops back so that he could check on a suspicious car. Your son understood sacrifice and how to protect “his people”…’his soldiers’….’his fellow Americans’…
    As you continue to make the media circuit and bask in the glow of affection cast upon you by a party that has little regard for your son’s own sacrifice, and veterans in general, I would ask you to consider your comments and your position more closely.
    Respectfully,
    Chris Mark ,US Marine and Navy Veteran.

    Well, the problem with all these letters to whatever editor is that the person that they are directed to will probably never read them. Ultimately, that means that it is of little to no consequence.

    That's not at all surprising. But you clearly are not smart enough to know better, or we wouldn't be having this conversation. Unlike you, I'm not "pretending" to be smart on the internet. Unlike you, I'm smart enough and experienced enough to know better. Such insults generally come from people who are simply not smart or insecure or outright idiots, especially after getting their ass handed to them in an argument (oh look, is that Boatshoes chiming in)?

    ZWICK 4 PREZ;1805660 wrote:Which is also the reason I know when someone is smart and someone swears he is smart on the internet.

    I've not seen that you're smart enough to make that assertion. See below.

    Apparently you aren't smart enough to consider that I might be on the west coast? And many other reasons. Hey, the world needs good engineers, and there's nothing wrong with being staff if that's what floats your boat.

    I'm not full of shit. If I give you a widely standardized and official test score (what other objective indicator is there?) showing me in 99 percentile will you give me $10k?

    Or are YOU full of shit? I'll tell you what....I'll even give you odds. If I'm a "pretender" this should be easy money.

    Or maybe you're just an insecure idiot.

    Will you and Jmog start a thread comparing test scores pls?

    We could compare degrees, but I figured you might feel left out.

    Actually it's becoming pretty clear.. You're Donald Trump. God it makes perfect sense now. You always tell people how smart you are and have so much money and your prestigious job... and you clearly can't let anything go.

    Is it hard to type with your tiny fingers?



    and LOfuckingL @ the guy who wants to bet 10 grand and show test scores on the internet b/c people don't think hes smart, and calls someone else insecure lol

    You mean like this bumbling jackass spewing falsehoods and deception while he dodges the question of whether his ransom payment will be used to fund more terrorism.

    (Oh, and the part about us being unable to wire the funds is especially hilarious; and the idiot reporters just soak it up)

    Right now, I'll be disappointed with anything less than 39/36 on the ACT and 1840/1600 on the SAT, since he's entering Tiernan "I'm loaded, crab salad, bitches!" status with this.

    I'd take Obama over either H or T.

    I'm not a huge fan of Obama either.
