    once again, you are setting the threshold for moral acceptability at the most reviled, corrupt, crooked, (and now irrelevant) politician of our generation. in this sense, every single person in america would measure up favorably to her. so bringing her up to defend your boy is absolutely pointless. every. single. time.

    defend your boy! nobody gives a shit about clinton anymore!

    New York Times is the sore losers. They had to report on news that they didn't want to.

    At $25M of government spending or less, it's break even with what Democrats traditionally spend per "job."

    And yet half the country including Rasta still want her elected and put into power.

    I am not defending Trump with these replies, I am merely pointing out the hypocrisy of Rasta's continual online protest.

    Your Facebook conservative friends don't know what they are talking about huh?

    Didn't you say you work for UPS or FedEx? And have already made over 90 grand this year doing a 100 percent unskilled job? I can see how one would be so far out of touch with reality in that case. Those good Carrier jobs Trump supposedly saved don't make anything near that.

    No they didn't. Hillary was thrust upon us and Trump was the alternative. At LEAST 50% of her voters wanted a different candidate and held their noses while voting.

    Yet, 50% ish voted for her. If they had true convictions they would have not voted, or voted green, much like I think you did.

    that's like saying you have to root for the Lakers or Cavs to win a championship when you're a Blazers fan...a lot of us have true convictions that kept us from voting for the Judge Judy show candidates but we're now the silent vote that lurks in the background and builds momentum for the next term...the new deplorables ....anyone with true convictions wouldn't think you'd fix a broken axle with carpenter glue

    ....... A championship does not affect you at all, compared to a president.

    Had people really revolted against Hillary as the nominee they would have flipped that turd brigade around right quick.

    I'm curious as to what are the deep moral convictions of Trump voters? Conservatism? Religious grounds? What?

    A president doesn't affect me as much as a Supreme Court judge...you talk like you welcome division over and over...like taunting the losing team makes you right....yeah....time will tell soon enough about all that

    For me it was all about policy and stance on certain things. I could give two shits about any dirt being thrown around from the Democrats.

    Not sure what division you are talking about. I am just saying your previous comparison was invalid.

    I'm not conducting an experiment but if I were, I'd take the test from an objective professor...thanks for taking the time to evaluate my opinions and offer feedback though....being loud doesn't mean one is right. We both know you're not going to actually like most things I express here anyway.

    So you which policies? Anti-free trade? Endorsing Mercantilism? Authoritarian comments? Advocating an imperial presidency? What exactly?

    EDIT:
    For what it's worth I don't think there was anything particularly principled about voting for Hillary (for those that did so), but Trump's brand of nativist, populism isn't based on anything resembling traditional conservatism, so it's not like there's much there to grab hold of regarding "first principles" either (with respect to classic liberal democracy).

    What the hell right do you have to judge a person's skill or vision.....talk about out of touch with reality....sounds like you could use a check up

    I'm sorry, I was using the literal definition of unskilled. My bad, I forgot that there was that HUGE training school for FedEx drivers.....also known as the DMV.

    And what the fuck kind of vision are you talking about?

    The kind where a guy says a bisexual guy can't be anything but gay?
