No...I don't think so...I think nearly everyone made up their minds months ago...
Latest poll has him tied in Ohio. You can pretend Clinton has any chance in Georgia or similar states, but I do think Trump has a slight chance to lower her values in battleground states. No one can explain why they like her, just that they dislike Trump (oddly for some of the reasons and positions Clinton has supported at one time or another).
Re: 2016 Presidential Election Thread
Trump had a good couple weeks and shit the bed last night. His Hispanic coalition just fell apart. I thought he actually had a slim chance propping up his poll numbers speaking with the pres of Mexico, that he could actually take it somewhere, but again, it's Trump.
I like Hillary because she is closest to my politics. People can't really talk about why they hate her without regurgitating what they read on a right wing blog or heard on crazy right radio. Or... What they made up in their own head with what they lazily put together from whatever they saw or read that sounded good to them.

What policies do you agree with and when did you get her position on the topic? You might want to verify she hasn't changed positions.
So because a "right wing blog" made a comment, it's unreasonable for someone to independently come to the same conclusion. Are you a White House staffer or some other Washington insider? If not, everything you think or say is a regurgitation of someone else's ideas.
Re: 2016 Presidential Election Thread
Trump was doing real well, but this whole Mexico wall fuckup and immigration speech last night is gonna push him right back down.
I keep hoping Gary Johnson can pick up some support from somewhere. I figure some undecideds and Trump ex-pats might go to him, but his uptick has been very incremental. I think the bigger issue might be Jill Stein stealing the third-party vote and that's a shame. She is not a legitimate candidate. I see a struggle for Johnson to get the 15% for the debates, but it's not impossible. I'd really like to see him up there. He'd look good next to the other knuckleheads.
Re: 2016 Presidential Election Thread
What's fucking hilarious is I have never even read a blog much less a right-wing one, I don't watch TV news, and yet all I do is parrot them because it's absolutely impossible for someone to have a thought of their own unless it is supportive of the bitch.

No Randall, I read/view many different opinions but I go for facts. And yes, most right wing blogs have an agenda and lie, much like left wing blogs. I don't belong to a team. I don't toe a line and I don't adhere to anyone's rules or ideology. I don't have a meat puppet fraternity point of view. I'm an individualist.
I like Hillary wanting people to opt into medicare early, that's something I always wanted. I like her pro business stance and tax plan, which I've already posted in this thread. Equal pay; $12 an hour minimum wage increase. The enviorment, etc. That's what matters to me. Will she do all she says? No, but no one should expect it from anyone, it's her political experience and bipartisan negotiation skills that get me on board, not her popularity or whether she's likable or has a pristine reputation. I want a legal wolverine with a steel spine. But I am VERY concerned about her association with big pharma though, and that's my biggest issue with her. I hate it. Pharma and medical costs must be capped, like every other country does. It's the only easy to save medicare.

Wtf is wrong with being called an escort? I visit escorts regularly & they're good people.. Don't get what the big deal is personally.. Mind you, having an ex-hooker as First Lady I suppose might upset some religious nut jobs.. funny tho.

I guess?!?! I suppose the good thing is that the US will be exposed for the white trash hillbillies that we are...
I don't consider prostitution an honorable profession. I do not think I should have to explain why. I would not take away anyone's right to do whatever he/she wanted for a living...but I do get to judge it.

Re: 2016 Presidential Election Thread
I don't see it as any less honourable than any other profession. Lets face it almost all employment is about doing things for money.
Sure, someone having sex with you out of love is a wonderful thing, but that doesn't mean there's any real harm in someone else doing it for a job.
Just like if my wife bakes me a cake out of love it's a wonderful thing, but that doesn't make bakers who make cakes for people bad people.
