"He'll lose"
"And why is that?!"
"No reason he'll win"
"Oh believe me, I know he won't win"
1) his campaign is built on overt, undeniable white nationalism
2) he has championed the deportation of 11 million people and that the military should commit war crimes against the families of terrorists
3) he has identified immigrants of all types as scapegoats for our nation's problems and used it to rally his white nationalist base
4) he frequently professes to "rebuild our depleted military" as part of his plan to "make America great again" (Literally a page from the Nazi German playbook)
5) I'd say the sexism is patently obvious
6) he has actually controlled the entire media narrative about this election as he has bounced from one outlandish statement to another, always keeping the narrative on whatever he has chosen to say about himself or his opponents, leading to over $3 billion in free air time
7) he frequently speaks in exaggerations about national security details and plans and it is a central plank of his campaign
8) he and the GOP frequently tie Christian fundamentalism into their domestic/social policy points
9) he's a billionaire who has exploited every trick in the book, has used the campaign to fund his own enterprise, and has promised to cut corporate and top individual tax brackets while renegotiating trade deals to benefit big business
10) he's been sued dozens of times for not paying laborers, is against raising minimum wage, against healthcare initiatives that would help common laborers, and has frequently employed non-Union labor to complete projects
11) frequently discounts expert opinions on almost any and all policy positions
12) has run a campaign promising sweeping expansion of policing power as the "law and order candidate"
13) again obvious in his personal business dealings
14) has frequently attempted to discredit the American electoral process and has pushed false claims of voter fraud while simultaneously promoting voter intimidation
But but, Hillary's emails! The Federal Investigation! WIKILEAKS bro!
It's beyond mental mate. It's like their hatred of Clinton blinds them to the evidence that is clearly there for all to see. I'm also sick and tired of this bullshit "oh Trump doesn't mean what he says and won't do what he's said he will do" argument. Of course he will say and do anything, the whole point is the moron is unpredictable and more importantly completely UNSTABLE! I wouldn't put anything past him, he's so thin skinned all it takes is someone to upset him and his mega tantrum could have serious consequences. On top of that the agenda against Hillary isn't funny anymore either, as we have all said she isn't perfect, but her heart is in the right place.
Just look at the main issues.
Healthcare - Hillary wants Universal Healthcare - Donald wants - to repeal Obamacare and replace it with something so amazing it will make your head spin
ISIS and Syria - Hillary wants to put a no fly zone over Syria and send in Special Forces - Donald won't tell anyone because it's secret but he wants to bomb the terrorist families after waterboarding them and worse! Isis love The Donald!
Immigration - Hillary wants to help families of existing migrants - Donald wants to build a wall and kick out 15 million immigrants. Today. Tomorrow he changes his mind, and the next day after he changes it back again. He also wants to ban entire religions and enforce dangerous and archaic checks for certain minorities.
Taxes. Hillary wants to give tax breaks to the working classes and small businesses and wants to tax the rich to make up for it. Donald wants to give tax breaks to his rich mates but cant explain how he will cover the shortfall
Gun Control. Hillary wants background checks, she wants to stop mentally ill patients having guns and wants to close loopholes for gun shows and internet purchases, she also wants a limit on cartridge sizes and wants to restrict assault rifles. Donald is getting paid by the NRA so is happy how things are.
Climate change and renewable energy sources. Hillary want's to make the USA the worlds leading country on renewable's and wants to cut carbon emissions by up to 50% The Donald thinks it's all a scam invented by the Chinese.
Adultery. Bill has been there and done it and wants to continue, The Donald is on his third marriage, Hillary couldn't give a feck and will let the sexist perverts do whatever they want while she carries on Obama's legacy and takes the USA in to her own future! They can both go feck themselves or whoever while she runs the country!
I've been up for nearly 40 hours now, I think I need some sleep
But that's not what we want. I've read a lot of the emails folks have screamed about on twitter, gone off and done some research on the context of them and found that they don't say in the slightest what people claim they do.
What I want from you is specific emails, in context, showing how she's worse than Trump.
I'd call it lying down with your head buried in the sand.
You'd think someone so well versed in them as he is wouldn't have a tough time pulling them up... I mean... They do contain material that should put her behind bars and all.
Of course you'd quote the irrelevant Zizek. He's always a good bet for a deluded opinion.
Well I thought the first post was directed at me, and not at trump's chances. Like I haven't defended him well or something. Considering English is my 3rd language I'm doing well.
"He'll lose"
"And why is that?!"
"No reason he'll win"
"Oh believe me, I know he won't win"
She certainly is the better option.
ps. Gonna be funny in 4 more years when you try to defend HRC after leaving the country in the worst shape ever.
That's a very dangerous line of complacency. Nate Silver currently gives Trump a 35% chance of winning.
Trump has been demonized to the extent of calling him fat Hitler? That's some proper brainwashing, considering the other candidate is the known warmonger.
Twitter scares me, just throw up a few links when you got a spare min.
you don't have to even read shit... just listen.
I give up. This thread has been pretty sane until tonight and it seems Ze Russians have hacked in!
The irony, eh?
Odd isn't it. Whereas we have a thread here full of videos of Trump, from his own mouth, saying all the crazy/horrific things we say he does. I'm really looking forward to this imbalance being redressed.
Won't be hard, the republicans have developed an incredibly ability to unearth some extraordinary idiots and launch them to the highest political stage.
The demonisation is basically people listening to him and saying "jesus feck, hitler said almost the same thing"
I'm not up to date on the polls as there are more pressing things to read at the moment, the polls can wait, for me that is. I hope he can beat her, but it seems unlikely.
Yes I'm sure Jill Stein would do a far better job of working with the likes of Ted Cruz and Mitch McConnel.
And how can you be so sure?
Are you going to ignore that this was discussed for quite a few pages and a few posters presented rebuttals to it?
On the plus side, universal alternative healthcare.
The Caf is a serious trendsetter for opinions, the Russians couldn't let this thread go on uncontested.
Aye, we're all lucky there. Trump in the WH would have been disastrous.
Ze Germans Tommy!
That figure for Johnson looks lower than I thought I was used to seeing. Has he been slipping in the polls of late?
yes i'm gonna ignore those rebuttals, because were pretty shit. Basically some people will only believe she is corrupt if she admits it...
To win the GOP primaries you have to try and be a bit of a racist cnut. He won that election, and since then he sorted out his rhetoric.
Yes, much better to just post it again for the 10th time.
But of course he's not actually, because being a politician is all about taking the position you need to succeed.
....
But Trump says he's no politician..............
Are you taking the piss? His main policy is still kicking out the Mexicans and building a giant wall. Seriously, every post you make here only paints you as massively uninformed about the election to this point. His racism didn't start with the GOP primary, or the near decade he spent casting doubts on Obama's heritage, it goes back decades, with his family business policy of restricting access to coloured people. He's a born and bread racist.
Hillary wants war. That's not just me saying that. There's footage of her threatening Russia (with Putin responding) and promising Iran that she will attack if she becomes president. That's not disastrous?
I will keep informing the truth as much as i can.
Source please!
If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.
That sort of mindset is what a twitter account with 14 followers and 6000 followeds is for.
