Presidential Election 2016 (was "Debates")

[dead man walking]

clinton's supporters--women, blacks, latinos, queers and trannies--aren't impressed with white male fault-finding.

the gang here is yesterday's news. get used to it.

[johno]

^ That's an argument for Hillary? The nation is doomed.

[dead man walking]

hey johno,

i'm not sure which i my two posts leads you to conclude the nation is doomed.

the majority is unwilling to put the country in the hands of donnie and his band of choleric, superstitious supporters. the election is decided. the discussion now is the post-mortem.

[Turdacious]

He lacks experience, he has no discernible plan, letting him loose on our economy abd foreign policy would be like setting a fox lose in the hen house. If the fox was a dumb asshole.

That was pretty much the assessment on JFK too FWIW.

And wasn't he only president for like a year and a half?

Enough time to get serially bent over by the Russians (probably not the endorsement the Putin lovin' Donald was looking for).

[Turdacious]

for all the bullshit about sex and walls and emails, it looks like this election is splitting along r & d lines, with a lot of unenthusiastic d's, and the r's losing people because of trump's racism, misogyny, and all-purpose craziness. he's a parody of a white alpha male, but white males seem drawn to his barking.

the dems may have fucked up, but the r's fucked up bigly, so bigly, so stupid, retarded, the bigliest. small hands and a fox pelt. such a loser.

Keep in mind that he's spent most of his career as a NYC Democrat. It's possible that he's no more a Republican than Bernie was a Democrat. Why Dems were so comfortable with the Donald in their tent is as big a question as why Republicans are comfortable with him in theirs.

The people already in the tent, and who owned the tent, were more than glad to see the new voters in the tent but less than glad to see who brought them to the tent. On both sides.

I liked this quote I heard, the establishment takes Trump literally and so not seriously, while his supporters take him seriously but not literally.

His refusal to accept the election results and therefore the will of the people...

[Turdacious]

Depends on the results. If the election's close (like 1960) that's one thing. If he can't cross the Alf Landon line that's another.

[dead man walking]

he's not getting votes from nasty women and bad hombres. he's shunk the tent with his mean-spirited and undisciplined gob.

No it doesn't.

If at the end of the day the election is certified, it is by definition the will of the people. It's worked for 240 years, through multiple wars and some pretty nasty elections. Fuck Donald Trump.

Yeah, there's no spinning that one, as hard as his surrogates tried. WSJ front page got it right.

What the fuck happened to Rudy Giuliani. From America's mayor to Trump's min pin.

Yeah that whole AlGore nonsense. Hard to believe anybody would question an election.

How dare you, Sir! Democrats rose up in unanimous opposition to Gore's shameful challenge.

Asking for a recount in an exceptionally close election is a difference of kind, not degree, between Gore and Trump. Florida law mandated a recount because the margin was so close, not because Gore was a narcissistic blowhard who convinced himself, despite all evidence to the contrary, that he is a winner.

Gore conceded. Then unconceded and contested. No High Road for the Dems on a prompt & peaceful transition.

[dead man walking]

he'd have won the emmy if the vote wasn't rigged.

You can relitigate the past all you want. There is a chasm of difference between deeming election "rigged" in advance & challenging 271-266 result, razor-thin Florida numbers.

Even you can't be so dense as to argue otherwise.

[Yes I Have Balls]

How come I never see Hillary supporters posting about her accomplishments or tangible leadership achievements?

There are Hillary supporters on IGX? Big if true.

[Yes I Have Balls]

It's not sexual assault if you...don't object [at the time].

That didn't take long. You perverted mother fucker. You are actually DEFENDING a man accused by 10+ women of sexual assault. Man, I have new respect to the absolute depths you will sink. You victim-shaming piece of shit.

^ Not what I said.

It is what you said. Own it!

[Yes I Have Balls]

This makes me so curious as to what the search history of your porn is. Gotta be fucking brutal.

I will only say this: "Your Mom is a thoroughbred, Kid."

Yes she is insatiable. I just rolled off her and and am untying your dad for his next dicking. He cries too much though.

I missed the part where Al Gore called for pitchforks in the streets. I am sure some Dems were ready, as deplorables come in all political affiliations.

There is a process, the process was followed, the Supreme Court tossed it to GWB, Gore gracefully conceded. It is the case study in peaceful transfer of power.

That was *not* what Trump was talking about.

[Yes I Have Balls]

Trump just now: "I promise and pledge to totally accept the results of this historic election ... If I win." See? Gore & Trump = same same.

[johno]

You have no idea what Trump was talking about. That's not how he rolls.

The Dems used the SC toss to Bush as a lever to delegitimize his presidency from day 1 until today. Should Trump lose a very tight race, his supporters will do the same thing to Clinton.

And, regarding "rigging", the plans are in place across the nation. Dems excel at voter fraud today as they always have and certain amongst them can't help themselves. Let's hope it's not so close that their rigging matters.

I have a prediction. Should it be a very close win by Trump, Dem hacks across the nation will unleash an unholy scream and swarms of lawyers to fight the "will of the people". The MSM will do a reverse take on "rigging" that's so swift it could cause spinal damage.

That happens a lot.

I do know what he wasn't talking about, though.

You're forgetful or crazy. Bush got bipartisan support on his agenda even before 9/11. Right out of the gate he got Dem votes for his tax cuts.
