Clinton vs. Trump: The Coming Landslide

[madbrian]

Clinton raised over $68m last month, far and away her best month. 

[South Florida]

This is over when he gets the nomination, that's celebration day.

"Let's stop using that vote as a disqualifier."

I'm not. The fact that she's a war hawk doesn't help. 

She's no Obama.

How Hillary Clinton Became A Hawk

She will be a fine president. Get the bug out of your butt 

[javero]

Clinton, the last to speak, brusquely rejected the idea, saying, “I’m not giving up anything for nothing.” Her hardheadedness made an impression on Robert Gates, the defense secretary and George W. Bush holdover who was wary of a changed Russia. He decided there and then that she was someone he could do business with.

Meanwhile, Team Trump came out so strongly with the Jew Hatred this morning that they had to delete his antisemitic tweet.

But...but...his daughter is a Jew (the older one, the one he wants to date), and three of his grandkids are Jews, so he can't hate them.  Just like he can't be a racist because...Omarosa.  And he can't be a xenophobe because he keeps marrying immigrants.

^Dude...you're on fire bruh!

[South Florida]

Perez bombs on MTP.  Answer the questions!  We need Warren.

[javero]

Forgot to watch but will catch it on demand later.  Was it a total FUBAR?

[South Florida]

I guess she dosen't really need Warren, and yeah he bombed.  Hate when they don't even attempt to answer questions.

[madbrian]

Multiple news agencies are reporting that the anti-semitic tweet was lifted from a Neo-Nazi site.

[Jessie Mueller]

I hope she chooses Sherrod brown or Liz warren as her running mate. And honestly I hope she does declare war. NATO intervention ASAP!

[South Florida]

I doubt this star of David thing was intended, this is a real reach.  I have to ask, are you the real Jessie?

Damn, Jessie, calm down.  You'll get another nomination.

Don't be stupid. She's the old SueStorm.

It's kind of infuriating how little has been made of Trump soliciting donations from foreign nationals - including members of the UK and Australian parliaments.  This seems to be a pretty clear violation of federal election laws, does it not?  And, yet, it was just a minor news story and, thus far, the FEC hasn't opened an investigation, have they?  I ask, because the coverage has been so scant.  

 

If Hillary had done the same thing, we would be having 24/7 wall-to-wall coverage of this massive scandal on every network.  While I do think that both the Clintons sometimes become overly guarded and suspicious and tend to make far too many public blunders, on this area, they are right.  They are held to a different standard than everyone else.

Intended or not, someone on the Trump staff found the image on a Neo-Nazi website, and that should concern people. 

[HorseTears]

Exactly.  And, even if they hadn't found it on a Neo-Nazi website (which they did), it would still be some pretty blatant anti-semitism bating; some not-so-subtle dog whistling.  It's exactly the same reason why right-wing news sites and personalities have this obsession with Sidney Blumenthal.  They know there's no 'there' there with Blumenthal's relationship with Hillary, but they also know that repeating the name of a well known, wealthy, successful Jewish man is going to trigger their base.  It's vile and it deserves to be called out.

Some context, courtesy of the folks from 538:

"28 months

That’s how long the House select committee’s investigation into the 2012 Benghazi attacks lasted, exceeding the amount of time high-profile Congressional committees spent digging into Watergate, the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the Sept. 11 attacks and Pearl Harbor."

Your continued callous disregard of the concerns of minority groups of which you are not a part is astonishing. You seem determined to belittle the feelings of Jews, gays, women, African-Americans and other groups. Try listening before judging sometime.

 

[Liza's Headband]

Oh, Jesus Christ. Give it a rest, you old queen. South Florida is mentally incapacitated. That much is clear. But to suggest he's some horrible bigot? My eyes just rolled so much they now hurt.   xo 

[PalJoey]

Perhaps you should have let them keep rolling.

[Liza's Headband]

You're a gay Jew and damn proud of it. Great. We get it, too. Move on. 

[PalJoey]

 

I see no need to.

FBI said Clinton and her staff were "extremely careless" as there were over 100 emails containing classified information, but recommending no charges for Clinton. As much as it pains me to say this, she has essentially secured her place as the next President of the United States. Better that than the horrors of Donald Trump, though. Congratulations, PalJoey.
