Trump is going to play himself as a victim.
I thought Republicans hated victim mentality?

One of my best professors in grad school, Thomas Sowell, has some cogent observations about this election. Here are some excerpts:
"A President Trump could of course create a longer-lasting stigma [for the Republican party]. However, he might possibly be sobered up by the responsibilities of the presidency. But someone who has not matured in 70 years seems unlikely to grow up in the next 4 years."
"With Hillary Clinton as President and Democrats in control of the Senate, she can appoint Supreme Court justices with as much contempt for the law as she has demonstrated herself, and Senate Democrats would rubber-stamp her choices."
"Voting for an out of control egomaniac like Donald Trump would be like playing Russian roulette with the future of this country. Voting for someone with a track record like Hillary Clinton's is like putting a shotgun to your head and pulling the trigger. And not voting at all is just giving up."
"Nobody said that being a good citizen would be easy."
Nonsense. Put a climber in the White House. Vote Johnson/Weld.

I don't think so, apogee. Voting for Hillary is certain death for a Republican, but not necessarily for the country. Voting for Trump is possible death for both a Republican and the country. The only good choice for a Republican is to vote Johnson/Weld.

"Voting for Hillary is certain death for a Republican, but not necessarily for the country."
Why is it certain death? Because a Republican would be stoned to death by their fellow Republicans?
If you are referring to where the leadership of either candidate would lead the country as a whole, a Trump presidency would be certain death, whereas Hillary leadership could go a variety of directions.

The only lies are the ones that you are posting Radical
We already went through the lie about Hillary sleeping through Benghazi,
it was 3 pm in Washington, no one was asleep, so that was a LIE
and now lies FABRICATED by GOP Hit men (Roger Stone and Brietbart)
about Khan
This gold star father is now found to be involved in high profit illegal Muslim immigration and of course deep ties to the clintons.
A set up from the beginning ..
you are like a little child that just came upon the right wing lie machine and you're like wow, it's all so real!!!
But it's not, it's all fake, it's all lies for suckers like you
Everything the Right Wing put our is a lie of some sort.
and these lies about Khan will be debunked
Will you apologize for lying after we prove you wrong?
You never answered my question Radical
Do you listen to Alex Jones?

Should be fun watching Mr. Khan's fan base evaporate as details of his work are exposed.
Maybe he is just a victim of rightwing propaganda. Maybe the Breitbart story is all lies. But the deletion of his business website (right after hitting the big time) does look a little hinky.

Exposed for having ties to what?
It doesn't matter what ties he has, he can be tied to anything
It doesn't matter except in the minds of demented Hillary haters
They can't wait to smear that poor dad into submission, they will through every piece of sh#t they can dig out of their evil sh#t brains
Challenge a leading right winger, and instead of addressing the issue, they dig hard for dirt to smear the living daylights out of you
lies or truth, it doesn't matter when your party is fueled by evil and hate

Trump said the Benghazi victims were "left helpless to die as Hillary Clinton soundly slept in her bed."
Clinton was not literally sleeping when the Benghazi attacks unfolded, as it was mid afternoon on a Tuesday in Washington. She worked late into the night, as is evidenced by an 11 p.m. email.
If we take Trump’s claim more broadly, that Clinton was inattentive throughout the hours in which the attacks occurred, none of the many congressional investigations into Benghazi have made that assertion.
We rate Trump’s claim False.
Who cares if she went Home
what was she going do, sit there for days?
if you didn't know yet, EVERYONE has cell phones Now!!
so if she was needed, they could call her!!!
Wow!
see how stupid it is to use BS (went home) against them!
It makes you look like an idiot

Why did Bush let 3000 die on 911
There were Jets all over the place
This was Downtown NY City
Not 1000s of miles from anything
He could of sent out Helicopters to the top of the buildings
and saved 100s of folks so easily
But no, he left them all to DIE
he sat in a room and read my pet Goat
then he jumped on a plane and stayed in the air until it was safe
and then he sent all his Bin Laden buddies secretly out of the country
as we watched in Horror
There was no way to help the guys in Benghazi, that has been proven to be TRUE
If you have any class or moral compass, you would do well to cut down on the insults and just stick to the issues you want to discuss.
Calling me a libtard is an Insult

so what if she was home. I really don't get your argument. Except that it is a troll. What possible good could her staying at her office have done? nothing. not one thing.
By 10:30 PM eastern time the attack was over. We had regained control of the situation. so what should she have done. Stayed and wrung her hands?
security forces regained control at 2:30 AM Benghazi time. There is a 6 hour time different between libya and washington DC. So it was 8:30 PM in Washington when security forces had retaken the embassy. The Ambassador had already been found.
I really don't get what you are saying Riley or why you are focusing on her going home to sleep. Do you ever sleep?
