Do you think anyone would care if his tax returns showed him to be considerably less wealthy than he says he is?

You know what I mean.
Yes I do.

Political Chat is a Tough Town if you're not a Hillary Humper.

Any room is a tough room if you come in telling everyone that they are unthinking idiots - and that you are on a mission to prove to them that they are the idiots you believe them to be.

I don't have to do a thing to accomplish that mission.

The proof is coming on November 8th.

This is a discussions forum and this inevitably leads to arguments and arguments do get personal. Some posts sound like a war of words but I for one do not take any of this personally. It helps to hear opposing views.

This would be an awfully boring place if it was populated by mostly agreeable folks.

Hillary Cheated In First Debaate

Apparently she had "crib notes".

Pretty much in character for her considering the way she, DWS, and the DNC conspired against Bernie.

This is as good a place as any for this link.



It's a good read though I am certain some will find the source disagreeable.

How Did We End Up With Such Unpopular Candidates?

Quote:
Face It: They Are Us

America will have Trump or Clinton in the White House for the next four years because they are us.

Clinton is the ultimate end product of a political process consumed by big money. She is the candidate of the 1 percent. She believes in nothing but the acquisition of power and will trade anything to get it. The oligarchy is happy to help her with that.

Trump is the ultimate Frankenstein product of decades of lightly shaded Republican hate mongering. He is the natural end point of 15 post-9/11 years of keeping us afraid. He is the mediagenic demagogue a country gets when it abandons its people to economic Darwinism, crushes its middle class, and gives up on caring what happens to its minorities.

Both candidates are markers of a doomed democracy, a system that reached its apex somewhere in the past and has only now declined enough that everyone can see where we are. They’re us, people. We watched this happen, and we’ll be stuck trying to live with the results.

And apparently Hillary and the moderator were also in cahoots.

http://www.thepoliticalinsider.com/p...llary-cheated/

Quote:
It was heated and intense. In front of millions of viewers, moderator Lester Holt interrupted Donald Trump 41 times and yet avoided questioning Hillary Clinton about Benghazi or her FBI criminal investigation.

So what really happened?

After reviewing the tape, a video is going viral (below) which shows Hillary scratching her face repeatedly. Each time she does this, Lester Holt begins the process of interrupting or “fact checking” by using liberal talking points.

Watch (below) as Trump mentions “stop and frisk,” Hillary scratched her face. 30 seconds later, Holt pushes back about the supposed unconstitutionality of the policy.

More “signals” happened during the discussion of NATO, and Hillary appears to “signal” again about his opposition to the Iraq War… And she repeatedly signals as Holt waits to interrupt. Holt finally attacks Trump, and Hillary jumps back into her scripted response to the NATO debate.
