Anecdotal accounts but early voting in OH for Clinton started strong today. They got people lined up at 4:30 a.m.

A white Drumpfkin was interviewed, he said there are 94m people out of the workforce :wenger:. If you can bother to get up at 4 in the morning to vote then why not spend 10 min on the internet to verify that number?

Well the thing is those people seldom check the official numbers, because you know they are rigged by the government, he will only believe the numbers that are put out by the sources that say what he wants to hear. It's the society we live in these days people aren't interested in facts anymore they just are just looking for information to confirm their bias.

who are these 30% and how do they justify their opinion? Im genuinely interested to know, they cant all be morally dubious, uneducated, racist or mad?

I have read places that both parties can in general count on anywhere from 15% to 30% of the vote (can go higher in some staunch Republican or staunch Democratic areas), these are voters who will vote the party line no matter what. In Trumps case he is starting to drop into the range where that is the only support he is getting in many places.

He probably picks up a few who dislike Hillary, though that voter group probably intersects pretty much with the "party faithful" vote.

Not saying any of this makes the voters right, just saying why it is.

This isn't about liberal/conservative, republican/democrat etc... There is a very real possibility that the United States could elect a dangerous lunatic to be their president, the repercussions of which could be disastrous for the entire world. I don't usually take much of an interest in politics (generally viewing them all as bad as each other) but this time people have just got to get out there and vote to stop this man.

But never mind! There'll be more hope tomorrow. And it'll taste just as good. You never run out of hope.

And if you do, you can always switch to aspiration. It gives as good a high. And it's just as cheap.

:lol: Okay then, lets let the Trumps, Camerons, Martins and Kennys of the world just do whatever the feck they want.

A mix of all these traits. Uneducated mostly. Conservatives who will blindly vote for the GOP nominee whoever he may be.

Personally I haven't met any. I only see his flags and banners when I drive through rural areas close to the Wisconsin border.

On another note, he would have really been elected if he was running in Russia. The amount of racist, uneducated folk is unfortunately massive over there.

FFS, once again never answering anything!

"Is his behaviour appropriate?"

"Hillary"

"We've covered that seperatly, I want to talk about your candidate, is what he's said appropriate?"

"Hillary"

"But I want your opinion on your own candidate, is his behaviour appropriate?"

"Hillary"


Arrrrgh, feck off!!!

I really enjoy the times when the Trump person says, "You never talk about blah blah blah", and the newscaster replies, "We do, it was the segment right before this one".
 
The thing with Trumps apparent lack of inward 'opposition prep' on himself is that he probably doesn't remember half the shit he's said.
 
It's a shame hillary is the best candidate considering she seems to be a bit of a cnut

Thank goodness America found their senses, if this man got Nuclear code I shudder to think what the world would have become with him at the helm.

The NY Times are lucky it's a lawsuit (not that I think Drumpf has a case), but imagine what tools he'll use if he's the president.

They could just put a pack of porno playing cards in the situation room, that would distract him from the codes for five minutes.
 
I wish there was a candidate with trumps isolations policy but wasn't such an idiot. Man I'm worried over shillary

Really good article. I don't live in a small town but I'm probably 15-20 miles away from rural communities similar to those mentioned in the piece and can relate somewhat to their plight. My wife is also from a very small town. I feel for these folks. It's just an absolute crying shame that they chose somebody like Donald Trump to be their champion.

Even in times of today's media etc. I think a lot of this small town boys see life like this as the ideal...

Ahh, I love clicking on this thread in a morning and seeing six new pages to read through.

Can't wait for lunch so I can watch all the videos :lol:

Me too. Normally i'm one of the muppets up late updating this thing constantly, but the last couple of nights I've had hospital appointments and had to take the kids to school early, so coming back and finding 6 pages was a blessing! I instantly thought "what the feck has he been up to now" :lol:

Yeah, I'm in a medium sized town that's not too far from a big city in Scotland, and even in the UK as a whole you can see some of the things the article mentions: namely the way people become more conservative as you move into more rural areas. With the fact that the US is massively sized compared to the UK, it's no surprise some of them end up entrenched in their support for someone like Trump when their exposure to the sort of America we see might be very minimal.
 


:lol: That's fecking brilliant! I wonder what she thinks about her Fathers behaviour over the past few months? The fact he has gone from a national hero to a complete fecking nut job in many peoples eyes. She must be distraught to say the least. Poor lass. :(

Maybe you could go out and grab a pussy, make yourself better. The person you want is Ted Cruz, even his kids don't want anything to do with him. I'm looking forward to Hillary, at least I know my kids are in safe hands for the next few years at least. If the Dems take the Senate and have a good showing in the house we could see some real investment in this country going forward while the trumpanzees can rationale how they never heard of the implication of Trump in the brutal rape of a 13 year old. Facts don't penetrate the conservative bubble full of idiots and Mountain Dew farts and that is something the GOP need to sort if they want that high office again.
