And to think.

At one time Washington Post had journalists who could find hidden facts that took down a Presidency. (and they did it without the Internet, computers, cellphones or even answering machines.)

Now all they can do is make up nonsense with no facts at all.

I would think that Donald's fan base would be impressed, seeing as how that is what the do all the time when it comes to other candidates who ran in the primary.

#NeverTrump
I'm impressed there are adults who think that #NeverTrump is going somewhere.

You might not want to "grab a beer" with her, but Hillary has been paying taxes for years and doesn't hide her returns. Oh, and Trump doesn't want to "grab a beer" with you!

Speaking of which - excuse the tangent - I was just reading an article about Hillary's attitude toward the military, which had this passage, which somehow seemed endearing:

In October 2001, a month after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Clinton traveled to Fort Drum at the invitation of Gen. Buster Hagenbeck, who had just been named the division’s commander and would be deployed to Afghanistan a month later. Like many of the officers I spoke with, he had preconceptions of Clinton from her years as first lady; the woman who showed up at his office around happy hour that afternoon did not fulfill them.

“She sat down,†he recalls, “took her shoes off, put her feet up on the coffee table and said, ‘General, do you know where a gal can get a cold beer around here?’ â€



How Hillary Clinton Became a Hawk
Throughout her career she has displayed instincts on foreign policy that are more aggressive than those of President Obama — and most Democrats

The most logical conclusion -- as legal experts have stated -- is not to release tax returns during an audit.

Sour grapes make people look so silly don't they?

Speaking of "other" candidates that ran in the primary? Limped in the primary until they fell flat on their faces as I applauded and cheered loudly!

I am surprised that there are people out there that think #NeverTrump was created to go anywhere! It's a hashtag not a political party.

I can't fault him for taking every honest loophole. But, I do hold him accountable for proposing a tax plan that gives crony capitalists like himself huge cuts while tossing crumbs to the middle class and bankrupting the country like he has his many business ventures.

Poor Nixon, he just released his during an audit, guess he didn't need "legal experts" to take action.

I keep trying to rep you, but it won't let me. Lol.

One thing that can be said about Trump, he is a unifier. He unifies people against him! I've never seen more people from both sides of the aisle so quick to come together to agree on anything. But nowadays, Democrat or Republican, the prevailing sentiment from those outside of the angry mob is that Trump is absolutely terrible as a human being and a candidate.

We may not see eye to eye on politics, but as long as I and my family have a vote, I can definitely agree with you on #NeverTrump.
