Presidential Elections

NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
Dolan said the three of them prayed together. ?And after the little prayer, Mr. Trump turned to Secretary Clinton and said, ?You know, you are one tough and talented woman,?? he recalled. ?And he said, ?This has been a good experience in this whole campaign, as tough as it?s been,? and she said to him, ?And Donald, whatever happens, we need to work together afterwards.? Now I thought: This is the evening at its best.?

Trump said if he wins he's going to task a special prosecutor with going after her legally and he already thinks she should be in jail.  She has a lot of pull but you've got to think that bothers her at lease a little bit.  You can have political friends in high places but it will still be difficult to go up against a sitting president and win.
 
The problem with that in a democracy, you don't send political opponents to jail.

Depends how you do it.  If you find enough solid proof to bring her up on charges she could be indicted.  You can't just wave a magic wand and send her to jail.

Congressional Republicans gave it their best effort investigating Benghazi for years spending millions of taxpayer dollars in the process. It unearthed the private email/server, so it was worth it for Republicans.

Two words!  VOTER FRAUD!

Keep spreading the lies. It's working. 73% of Republicans believe this election will be "rigged" despite the fact that studies prove the exact opposite.

If this Trump trend continues, maybe we'll rename the GOP the GUP - the Grand Uneducated Party?
 
Donald Trump?s fine art of losing

"In a series of conversations, more than one of Trump?s biographers noted that he regularly calls others what he fears himself to be ? the obese man calling women fat; the man who works hard to hide his balding scalp insulting women who aren?t a 10; the candidate who visibly tires near the end of long debates calling other candidates ?low energy?; the man who is on tape describing his own lewd behavior toward women saying it?s his opponent?s husband who is a ?sexual predator?; the businessman who makes questionable use of his private foundation and the U.S. tax code, then calls his opponent ?crooked? for months and then says she?s the one who?s been ?nasty.?

But ?loser? is the jab he uses most.  ?His deepest insult is to call someone a loser, his deepest fear is him being regarded as a loser, because deep down he knows that he himself is a loser,? Hurt says."

It's not only that, the big issue is his repsonse accepting the election outcome. His other comments: bad hombres, no you're the puppet.

Seems like Clinton was a lot more prepared for the debate.
Exactly why does it matter whether he accepts the outcome?

Perspective said:
Right, but most of it seemed like Trump doin' Trump Unshackled. Interrupting Clinton to call her a "nasty woman" was a bit surprising, even for Trump, considering his negatives with women.
It seemed deserved so maybe, maybe not.  She lied about him and threw insults as well, they were just more subtle.  I'd say that his comments were not polite, but defintely Trumplike. 

He's equal opportunity with his insults.  Though they pretend otherwise.

He insults a white man, they just call him a bully.
He then uses the same type of insult on a minority, and they dishonestly call him a racist.
He then uses the same type of insult on a woman, and they dishonestly call him a misogynist.

Probably more accurate to just to call him a rude asshole.

I'm not sure how accurate polls are in America, but a recent poll in the PRC shows that most people in the PRC want Chairman Xi to become dictator for life (only Mao and Deng ever had that status). The pollsters concluded that without a Xi's perpetual leadership, China would likely suffer "civil war, invasion by foreign enemies, and the destitution of the people. This is the painful lesson 100 years of blood and tears in recent Chinese history have given us."

Can't say i ever want this clown on my side but he brings up a lot of interesting points...

Michael Moore: People will vote for Donald Trump as a giant ?F**k you? ? and he?ll win

Moore told audience members that he thinks the loudmouthed GOP nominee is going to win, largely because American elites are so cut off from regular people that they don?t realize just how much the middle class has been harmed in recent years.

?I know a lot of people in Michigan that are planning to vote for Trump, and they don?t necessarily agree with him,? the left-leaning documentarian said.

Many middle- to lower-income people are going to support the former reality TV star because at least he uses language directly pertinent to issues that have affected their lives, Moore argued.

I'll defer to Michael Moore's opinion on what angry poorly educated white men think and how they'll vote. His anecdotes don't prove his conclusion that Trump will win though.
 
Multi-tasking...

"Today is a metaphor for what we can accomplish for this country," Trump said Wednesday in one of the hotel's ballrooms where six chandeliers hanged from the ceiling.

He immediately sought to dispel the criticism that he is spending time promoting his business rather than campaigning for votes in the crucial final stretch, saying that "as soon as we're finished cutting the ribbon," he was taking off for several key swing states.

And after touting the property as "the most coveted piece of real estate in Washington," Trump quickly sought to meld his hotel promotion with his campaign message.
He praised the construction workers and electricians as "really the important ones" and said the hotel opening shows how he can "get things done" at a time when "just about everything our government touches is broken or they break it."

He promised to bring his "under budget and ahead of schedule" mantra to the federal government should he be elected. And he took jabs at Obamacare, calling it "in free fall."
But Trump used the hotel as more than just a stand-in for how he would govern as he appeared to tie the successful completion of his hotel project to the uphill battle his campaign faces as he urged voters to embrace his outsider campaign.
 
Gundlach is a guy whos opinion I do respect...

Gundlach Predicts Trump Upset, Rampant Deficits, Rising Inflation

Trump will win, interest rates will rise and a new era of fiscal stimulus will begin, leading to doom and gloom for the bond markets, said DoubleLine Capital CEO Jeffrey Gundlach.

Deficits and debt are about to mushroom no matter who becomes president, said Gundlach, who addressed attendees at the Schwab IMPACT 2016 conference in San Diego on Tuesday.

As entitlement programs bear the costs of baby boomer retirements, economic policy moves from monetary manipulation to fiscal stimulus and the tabs for three rounds of quantitative easing become due, Gundlach said the deficit could reach $1.5 trillion within five years.

?We?re in the eye of the hurricane for the next three to four years,? Gundlach said. ?Come 2018, 2019 and 2020, look out.?
