That may not be the smartest thing I've seen on the Internet today. Or ever.

Probably so but I've found them to be better company. At the least when they run out of logical argument they may resort to name-calling but it's in Spanish.

I am looking forward to Trump sending teams to look into welfare and SSI fraud. No more hiding slackers on government payrolls to lower the unemployment rate.
Who are you going to pay to go look into the welfare and SSI fraud? And, do you really believe that the government is actually 'hiding slackers on government payrolls to lower the unemployment rate"? Any idea how far fetched that sounds? Plus, your assessment of government employees makes you sound like you are jealous because you couldn't get one of those cushy government jobs.

Doubtful, they probably share more in common with your typical working class religious southerner than a SF liberal.

BTW, there are just as many people who identify as conservative on "the dole", and most Red States are frighteningly unproductive and unimaginative, thus making them welfare states since they depend on federal subsidies to survive.

Without the wunderkinds in our big cities (majority liberal) the US would export cotton, guns, and Kirk Cameron films. That's pretty much it.

I am certainly one of those who are becoming increasingly disenchanted with my country and government. Fortunately, there are many other nations around the world to choose from, in case Trump becomes president.

Personally, I would choose Canada because it's beautiful and it's within driving distance to my family in northern Connecticut. How about you?
Sorry--too cold. We're thinking Portugal. Luckily, spouse is an EU member. We've been thinking about it anyway. This would seal the deal.

Trump is not a conservative, I am not sure what to call him, but people are just not listening.

Luckily we can't believe anything a politician says before they are elected.

But I should add in all seriousness, at this point I'm looking for street fighter who supports economic growth. However, I will support whoever the Republican nominee is. If we don't, American will surely go socialistic like our economically strapped neighbors to our south.

Um. I'm usually try to stay out of dark alleys behind bars and I try to stay away from the POC so I'll leave now. I've got so many of the folks in the POC on my ignore list, I can't make heads or tails of the threads anymore.
