It's hopeless. Vote for Trump. It's clear he represents your views.
When she is NOT indicted and IS cleared of any intentional wrongdoing, will you apologize for your 1,237 posts about her e-mails?
My guess is NO. (Ok caps lock off). You've already previewed your next conspiracy theory...the DOJ is on the take! The prez put the word out, protect Hillary and my 3rd term!
The truth is Hillary has lived an exemplary life, is a decent person and a public servant. Like all of us, she has faults. She's going to be the Dem candidate for POTUS and will likely win. Doing so, she'll overcome the small mindedness of people willing to accept and repeat obvious lies about her.
Reasonable people will give her a second look.

Would it make sense that the criminal elements entrenched in our Federal Gov't and MIC would allow you to truly "vote them out".
No, no it wouldn't.
Federal elections are a circus to give the masses the illusion they have a choice.
You don't.

You folks can go back and forth on Hil as much as you like--we're like a a hundred folks in a country that's millions of times that size. In the end, Hillary will not be able to beat Trump. All the polls show this.
If you want to keep Trump from painting the White House gold, you'd better start backing Sanders like no tomorrow. Hillary has not weathered the shitstorm that's been thrown at her for the past decade. The American people think she's shifty, and that's that.
Clinton is full-blown "establishment" and criminal are the sames ones who make particular accusations against Trump with even less evidence.
It's easy to type words. Harder is to be factual in the fantasies that you hold to be true.
There's a ton of evidence against Trump. Look at how he deals with things he doesn't like. Look at how he said he wanted to beat up some guy at one of his rallies for protesting.
That the media doesn't play this for what this represents is one of the more scary things around.

Nonsense. A socialist cannot win. Wake up.

After Trump managed to not denouce the KKK yesterday:
Trump: "Well, just so you understand, I don't know anything about [former Ku Klux Klan head] David Duke. Okay? I don't know anything about what you're even talking about with white supremacy or white supremacists. So, I don't know. I don't know. Did he endorse me or what's going on, because, you know, I know nothing about David Duke. I know nothing about white supremacists. And so you're asking me a question that I'm supposed to be talking about people that I know nothing about. "
Rubio & Cruz are now denoucing Trump as a racist. It will be interesting to see if that is bad for Trump in the Republican primaries, since the Republican party has been very sympathetic to racists ever since the big switch-over in the south in the 1960's, when the racist Democrats mostly switched to being racist Republicans, due to laws & policies pushed by Presidents Kennedy & Johnson.

Trump blames a "bad earpiece" on his not understanding the CNN "disavow David Duke" thing. He says his FB page shows him posting that he had desavowed DD before the interview. I haven't looked at his FB page yet, but would also suggest seeing if the page can be viewed via the WayBack Machine, since FB posts can be predated.
Nonetheless, in the same article the above is mentioned, Trump appears to indicate that he will run as a Third Party Candidate if the RNC drumfs(tiny TM) him.
"Well, if they violate the pledge, which they've possibly already done, as you understand — if they violate the pledge, I will do something that will make them very unhappy," he warned. "I have millions of millions of followers."
To the RNC: PLEASE call this man on his bluff! YES, of course he will run independently. And yes, it is a risk because you will likely see Hillary(or Sanders, if it rolls that way, which I don't think is going to happen) win. But at LEAST you provide your party members an option where they can vote nobly.
WILL GOP's vote for Trump as the Republican candidate? Yes, of course they will, with the hopes that he can be reigned in once he is in office(if elected, I insist on adding, being a Democrat).
But really, ask yourself - Is 4 years of Democrat in the WH REALLY worse that Donald Trump in the WH and what it will do for the GOP? Take the long view.

It's too late. A cnn poll released this morning shows his lead expanding to 49% nationally. The poll was taken before the David duke idiocy, but it won't dent his support much, if any.
The republican leadership f*#ked up BIG TIME. They sat around waiting for the problem to disappear and it never did.

white, male, undereducated (he loves them) and best of all racist

Norton, I'm sure you're right. To me he seems like an off the cuff, random, babbling buffoon, but he knows his audience, and I'm sure he got guidance from his advisors before speaking.

Donald Trump is a racist. If you support him, you're fine with racism.
Bad earpiece, my ass.

She is "establishment" in every sense, and she stands for everything in the way of corporate greed and abuses that everybody here SAYS they oppose!
One could say that, as would be true of every other politician running.
But with Trump, it rises to another level. He has clearly stated that he has "bought" politicians.
Hillary has not bought any politicians.
What's he going to buy with your tax dollars?

She's beyond just a Trumpian "sleazy". She's as sleazy as he is, but establishment and criminal to boot.
Actually, Trump is the one in trouble with the courts right now, for his fraudulent Trump University.
The judge in the New York case ruled last year Trump is personally liable for illegally operating a university without a proper license, the Post reports, but also ruled the statute of limitations prevents Schneiderman from seeking restitution for most of Trump University’s students. Schneiderman is appealing.
I'd give you the citation for all his illegal activity, but you can easily find it on the State Department website.

Which sort of asks the question: If they cannot adequately lead a party made up of people who voluntarily associate with them, how would it be possible to lead the country?
But as a registered Republican now, I am going to vote for Trump, and the reason is simple: So many people don't vote because they say there is no real choice between candidates, that both parties are the same, and there is no difference.
Trump IS different, and he represents a real choice from professional politicians, such as Marc O'Rubio
(after O'Bama, we want another Irishman?)
