He is no different that whell, deflections and attack the messenger/poster, etc., etc., mixed in with some yee haw talk. In the end it's its difficult for these people to sell Hillary since they cannot explain how they got sold on her in the first place.

Bob is a cult like follower of Clinton.

I believe she could take out a pistol and shoot the muscular dystrophy poster child in the head on national TV and he would still find a way to rationalize himself into supporting her.

I've been accused of being that way about Bernie, but I'm not.

There is nothing he can do to get me to vote for Hillary.

I have a very good friend that is also totally sold on Hillary. We now have a $100 bet, he gave me 5:1 on Trump and the money will to charity.

I really don't want to root for Trump so I will the sub the cheering to you.

Sounds like you have an intelligent friend. You better keep your checkbook handy cause you're going to lose that bet, Rajoo.

Rajoo will win the bet, but the charity will never see a dime of that money because his Clintonista friend will welch on it just like Clinton's going to welch on her opposition to the TPP.

You are damned right I'm promoting Trump. Clinton and the DNC have to be punished for election rigging. If they suffer the humiliation of losing to Donald Trump, I will feel that justice has been done.
Everyone has his own version of justice, I suppose. I don't think much more of yours than I do of the Hutu version in Rwanda.

Right.

Because rooting for Donald Trump is the equivalent of slaughtering 800,000 people with machetes.

I can see I'm going to be a lightening rod for Trump hate on this forum.

No rooting for trump is one thing. Wishing harm on a group because you opposing them politically is not a good definition of justice. I was making the point that the Hutus pretended they were imposing justice as well. I don't see you getting gratification for your grudge as justice. If you truly think that Trump is best for the country, go all out. I don't think you actually believe that. Therefore, your rooting for a Trump victory is based on hatred rather than logic. Hatred is not a good recipe for justice.

P.S. It looks like you have been campaigning for the role of lightning rod for a long time.

I thought it was Trump that could kill someone in front of the entire world and still get more votes?

He is only pro Hillary because he believes that Bernie is a Soshialist and cannot win. If there was say Biden in the race, he would not be backing Hillary. And he will pay, he is quite generous.
