The Dem field ain't real good, either. Otherwise Hillary would've been blown OUT months ago.

You don't get it. People are fed up with politicians on both sides of the aisle who are in the pockets of their mega-rich donors and thus put said donors ahead of their constituents. There's an elaborate dance going on here. Politicians make namby-pamby PC speeches with vague promises to fix this and that. In the end, nothing happens because the mega-rich donors wants come first and foremost. When nothing gets done, both sides play the game of pointing fingers at each other.

Anyone in whatever "stronger field" you envision would be just more of the same BS over and over again.

Trump appeals to those of us who recognize that the system is rotten and corrupt and in desperate need of change. On the democrat side, you have Bernie who wants similar change---that's why it hasn't been a cakewalk to the nomination for Hillary.

I'm convinced that even if she's in coma or even dead, her fans would still prefer putting her in the Oval Office. At least they'll be able to have a historical picture taken of a female president of the U.S., and many of them will be able to say, finally, that they have seen a woman president in their lifetime. Oh, and any other women don't count as women. Only Hillary Clinton should be the first female president, regardless if she's a liar, corrupted, criminal, incapacitated, lifeless...

So will she now use the "I'm mentally challenged!" defense if she's indicted then?

And since she's a woman and if she is "mentally challenged", does this now give her the right via the rule of law to get in front of the line to be president?

Only in the new america.....only in the new america.....

And the cult cheered.
It's what he said. In Clinton's case, it's how her fans actually behaved all along.

Hard to tell whether getting the job will kill her or the job itself will.

In any event, Hillary is more concerned with winning the presidency than her own life itself. Nothing would make her happier than winning the office of the president, taking her portrait in the oval office and looking around and saying to herself " President Hillary Clinton, first female president of the United States of America". She could croak right afterwards and it would not matter too much to her. She is that fixated on getting into the White House.

Funny!
Just in case you don't know, I am a Bernie supporter. I didn't pay so much attention to Trump's supporters.

That said, we are talking about Clinton. Apparently, Hillary Clinton's supporters have to resort to dragging in another candidate they deemed as a greater evil for comparison in response to any negative opinions about their Clinton. They know their Clinton is an evil. They just want to claim that she's not the greatest evil (which many disagree), and therefore she should be elected.

Very true, best of the worst mentality is sure prevalent in this country.

btw, I wish bernie the best of luck in CA and really hope he wins. While I'm not a bernie supporter I think he brings up some good points that are long overdue that much of the herd has been asleep on(the bought off nature of politics, the nonsense/unfairness of selecting the nominee).

Then how to you explain the plethora of people with medical training of some sort or another babbling and spewing on TV all the time? Zika...Ebola...babble babble babble, yet not a single one of them has hands-on with any afflicted patients.


It doesn't take a medical degree to see Hillary has gone soft in the head. I just hope her ultimate collapse is televised.
