Hillary For President

[Pio1980]

I did get the Trump folks to quit e-mailing me by responding with links to factual information on their huckster buffoon.

Another good article from The Atlantic. 'The Curse of Hillary's Ambition'.

A while back when she was widening out her lead in the polls you were posting a new one about every 5 minutes and crowing like a Rooster every time.

Now that the tide has changed you don't seem to want to talk about polls so much.

Edit - Here's one just for you, Joad. Clinton up by 9% in Pennsylvania. Sad.

And here's something for you Bob. Pay particular attention to the text I have highlighted in Red.

This election is going to be about change. Which means Ms. Status Quo Clinton is fucked.

The race across the combined battlegrounds is as tight as can be, tied 42 percent to 42 percent.

Clinton was up one point last week, and was up two points back on Labor Day weekend. Voters in these states are still looking for change, while the partisan divide remains particularly deep.

Fifty-five percent of battleground voters want to see “big changes” in the nation’s politics and economy in the next few years. Forty-three percent want “some changes” and only 2 percent think things are fine and not in need of much change. Trump leads by a wide margin on being trusted to change Washington: Forty-seven percent trust Trump to do it, 20 percent trust that Clinton can do it.

"...That tells us how they’d act as president." WaPo

"When important events occur during the presidential campaign, we can get some sense of how the candidates would act if they were in the Oval Office. They don’t have the ability to do anything about a financial crisis or a natural disaster or a terrorist attack, but at least we can watch what they say and what instincts seem to be driving them. Over the weekend, a bomb went off in New York and another was located in Elizabeth, New Jersey and detonated by a bomb squad robot; officials now believe that the same individual, who is now in custody, might have set both devices."

"So how did the candidates react, and what does that say about what their presidencies might bring?
In the statement Hillary Clinton gave this morning, she mentioned that she has been part of the decision-making process on fighting terrorism in the past, stressed the importance of the federal government working with local law enforcement, and called for an “intelligence surge” to combat terrorism. But this was the heart of her message:
“Let us be vigilant, but not afraid. We have faced threats before. If you see something or you hear something, report it immediately to local law enforcement authorities. I know we will meet this new danger with the same courage and vigilance. We choose resolve, not fear. We will not turn on each other or undermine our values. We’ll stand together because we are stronger together in the face of this threat and every other challenge.”
You’ll notice how she worked her campaign slogan in there at the end. And how did Donald Trump react? He called into Fox & Friends this morning to take credit for the fact that while other politicians were doing what officials almost always do in cases like this — speak carefully at first about the incident — he told a crowd that the device in New York was a “bomb” as soon as he heard the news. In this case that turned out to be true, but Trump wanted praise, as though saying so demonstrated his extraordinary and unique genius. He actually mentioned that Clinton had used the word “bombing” in her initial statement, but nevertheless preened, “What I said was exactly correct. I should be a newscaster because I called it before the news.” "

The choice couldn't be clearer in this election.

That's one vote for pogroms.

Trump is a pompous opportunistic asshole who speaks like a spoiled 8 year old. Dumping on Muslims just feeds the lowest nativist narrative. We are better than that, or should be.
