    jesus tap dancing christ, the woman also has allergies, among other things she also like myself takes armour thyroid...but at least you admitted "who the hell knows...?"...again, I'll ask, instead of manic conjecture do you or anyone else have anything of substance as far as actual proof of any of these conspiracy theories?...didn't think so.

    ...well, instead of a broad blanket statement, a little accuracy might actually help, don't you think?

    ...you really don't know what the actual quote was, do you?

    ...what exactly is this supposed to mean or represent?...you seriously think I'm backing Hillary?

    ...would you care to check out the Samantha Bee and Jimmy Fallon spoofs on Trump?




    ...don't know how many times I have to say it but both Clinton and Trump are a disgrace.

    Both are offensive, no doubt. However there are moments where Trump does try to be reasonably presidential.

    I trust neither, but Trump hell will be slightly better than Clinton hell.

    I made the mistake this week in talking politics with my wife's Uncle's in up-state NY, another in Boston; this week. Both are long time extreme liberals; hard line Mule Democrats. As soon as I mentioned how fkd up the Hispanic situation is here in this area, they automatically thought I was a Trump supporter, without hearing my own stance on immigration; or why the sociological group is failing in every aspect here in So. Cal, which cannot be compared to life in Up-St. NY....

    classic case of can't blow up either extremist within both parties, tho' IMO, Trump does not represent the majority of GOP Voters, too many stayed home, during the primaries, plus looks like Hillary's picking up more support from "on the fence" voters. I'm not on the fence, have not cared for either of the 2 idiots; from the beginning neither...

    All this has become; and is the illusion of Freedom...the failure to provide any candidate, who was competent and not a crook or fraud. Take yer pick, crook? fraud? Neither. One can't attack either without being looked at as a supporter of the other...that's bs...

    Saw the Libertarians on 60 Minutes. They wan't much less government in all avenues of life, pretty much eliminating Social Security, the IRS, any and everything not in the original Constitution. Will these guys never get a clue, this is not 1776...? Less Federal presence, but with a 28-30% consumption tax, aka sales tax, across the board....I'd say that's govt with one hand in our pockets...pickpockets...

    ...Tote, my concern is not simply about the next 4 years...I'm looking beyond this election (2020 and onward) and I truly believe the only way the GOP survives is if Trump is defeated.
    ...it's already been hard enough to elect a republican over the years without Trump driving a stake through the heart of the party.

    Good read. Trumpet, is gas to a black riot fire....not an extinguisher...

    What would Donald do if he were in JFK's shoes, during the bay of pigs nuke missile crisis??? Would he show patience/resolve and restraint??? I can't see him doing more than escalating any crisis, beyond repair...or launching what no one really want's to do in their right mind...

    are you looking at the polls since the shootings/police protests? he's gonna beat Hillary, which will be both bitter and sweet for you. In some ways its like watching the Sox go on to win the series in '04....complete and utter shit show, yet you can't avoid it.

    I'm completely agnostic living in CA as Kankles will win here handily.

    ...uhh, yes, I have been looking at the polls, are you?...Clinton has actually picked up a point today from yesterday which tells you how the polls fluctuate from day to day, week to week.
    ... but why are you trying to correlate senseless rioting/looting into votes for Trump...if that's truly the case (and it's not) it should tell you all you need to know about the mentality of the people you seem to be oddly aligning yourself with.
    ...and if Trump should win, please explain to me why it would somehow be "bitter sweet" for me but not for you?...and you've been bashing Trump just as long as me. Now you're fellating Trump even though he's no different than he was 6 months ago because because you feel he sux only slightly less than Clinton.

    ... be consistent...."Tommy 2 candidates"?

    This shithole blue state, ie California, has a way of making One Gnostic/Agnostic, it's inevitable... it's also got a way of making it very hard to remain open minded, to the plight of those less fortunate, when crime is out of control, and Caucasian's have become the minority, without their separate rights, not equal rights or even civil rights, rather: separate rights....

    The only state in the Union that cannot test aptitude of literacy for black kids, in our septic public Schools... while the illiterate evolve into human trash; which we've seen on the streets rioting over decades... very very few black kids, even hispanics (to a lesser degree), go on to continue or find higher ground ie education, when they get their education on the streets, and find their jobs are strong arming liquor stores, et al.

    I did not pass up my teenage street education, but knew better than to remain on those streets for long; and never involved hurting anyone but myself....

    ...lol...well, the people who voted for Obama (twice) were not alone either.

    ...now, is this the part where I do like you did and scoff and try to discredit the source of the article that was posted?...No, but if you like I'll provide a different link that counters your view. And if you get right down to it, are the opinions of the writers if these articles really more insightful or any less biased than the opinion of you or I?...nope.
