Elections 2016 Presidential Election General Discussion v2

Congress is far more likely to stop hillary's shit than Trump's. The idea that a republican congress is going to be an effective check to a republican president is wishful thinking.

I think there are enough democrats, with at least a few reasonable republicans to stop anything outlandish.

Trump doesn't have any concrete plans, so it will take months to form a real plan, months to go through congress, before anything really happens, they will have to start planning/playing into the next election cycle, and not do anytrhing drastic.

Policies that are more likely to get passed for him arent that bad. For instance, one of the easiest policies he outlined to enact, would be to send convicted, violent criminals back to their country. Well, I don't like Trump... but that actually seems like common sense lol

Hillary is done. Trump just won. Hillary is unfit for office.

Anyone else think that Matt Lauer could learn a thing or two from Joe Rogan?

Hillary is done. Trump just won. Hillary is unfit for office.

i don't see it happening, even now.
the press, the lobbies, everybody in power is pulling for her.

Maybe not the House but it's probably gonna be a roughly 50/50 split in the Senate at best for them.

A woman against equal rights for both race and gender. A woman who said the Republican Party should not reach out to Hispanics.

Hillary also fainted today, that is pretty unstable. But she is scary for other reasons. Both are terrible, but it isn't very scary. Just realize they will only last 4 years, congress is going to stop any ridiculous shit, and nothing is really going to get done for 4 years. America's cities will continue to crumble as the rust belt spreads, and hopefully people will learn their lessons for nominating 2 idiots.

Yeah and which party controls the purse strings and sets the agenda on Capitol Hill? That would be the know-nothing, do-nothig, "let's drown the government in a bathtub" Republican Party that's entirely controlled by massively funded special interest groups that are all ultimately looking to undercut he governments ability to help the middle class in a meaningful way because that would eat away at their power. It's almost entirely about keeping elites' status quo and they know short of a workers uprising, a united federal government is the only thing that could balance the power while looking after things like... Oh you know... General welfare etc etc.

Lol, you sound like quite the CTer dude. There is a whole group that wants to keep the status quo that has been in power for centuries?

You cray man. They would need the media or some type of propaganda machine. Our media is clearly not bias towards anyone who would want to protect their special interests. For instance, turn on CNN and they are unbiased in covering an older lady with a routine medical problem. Hell, half of CNNS reporters and pundits have pneumonia today. So understandable she would.

Yeah huge conspiracy by the GOP to ruin the Federal Govt and create gridlock at all costs no matter what. Never mind doing the right thing. If that's what you mean then yes - a conspiracy in plain site for anyone who's taken a civics class and has half a brain.

Then why not complain about the DNC conspiracy to keep Sanders from the nomination? Multiple people, including the head of the DNC and others resigned. Yet I am sure it is ALL the GOPs fault. Nothing to do with the establishment in general

Pence handled that the right way. He said he's dencounced Duke and doesn't want his support but he's not going to get into the name calling like Hillary.

But I fully expect the MSM to spin this as Pence cozying up to the KKK.

Considering some of your previous posts, this is a pretty stunning level of shamelessness.

How so?

 

[waiguoren]

How so?

His panties are in a bunch these days due to his candidate imploding. Don't take it personally.

 

[Jack V Savage]

How so?

You regularly post stuff like this:

This is why liberals shouldn't be allowed to be parents

And cheerlead constantly for this guy: http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2016/01/28/upshot/donald-trump-twitter-insults.html?_r=0

But now that Clinton finally said something about the shitty Trump supporters, you suddenly think that insults are bad. It's like you have no actual beliefs--you just say whatever the GOP line is that day, even if it totally changes.

 

[waiguoren]

Trump 46 Clinton 43

Newest LA Times tracking poll

His best performance ever

I predict more like this coming
