Most of us are going to stick by our candidate, regardless. Not that we see that person as being perfect, we just see them as way safer and the lesser of the two evils.

I think Hillary still has this one, unless something REALLY bad comes out between now and the election. Not too likely though.

Wishful thinking there. As of today, CNN has 34% of voters are less likely to vote for Hillary, included in there is a large component of Dem voters.

Unless Hillary can pull out the master spin of all spins to regroup her voter base and somehow convince them she was the victim of a dirty trick to derail her campaign, then she is finished.

The clock is ticking and even more Wikileaks and emails to come out in the following week. The worst emails are about to be dropped, and HRC is still grappling with the fallout from the reopening of the FBI investigation.

Not looking good no matter how they spin it. The HRC team must be exhausted and fractures will surely show in the organization as the taste of defeat is getting ever closer.

Are you referring to this Hillary?

I voted for Johnson, but it saddens me to see US democracy sink to the level of 3rd world countries. Trump is correct in saying the system is corrupt and rigged.

Whatever is on emails, it has nothing to do with democracy or tampered elections.

The fact that the FBI has no idea what is on the emails, and yet the chose to create a media circus out of it just before the elections should concern everyone. Sure enough, even many Republicans have voiced their disapproval.
I know you do. Blame everything/everyone except the person who is the source to blame. That's common in our society today. And like enables like, votes for like, so there's our friend GIGO.....

Ha, you don't think our country has gone to a 3rd world nation years ago? You really need to pay attention. Where were you complaining when your buddy hil's husbands was meeting on a tarmac with the AG in a week or so before the decision came down on her emails? Foxes guarding the hen house? It's right in front of you now.

Johnson to me is a RINO and wants to play the game you complain about....ignore the rule of law, specifically, our border laws, and create an open border paradise because big walls just create taller ladders nonsense. See, the laws don't work for him so he proposes a nice open border and amnesty, ie rewarding those who broke the law. So congrats on enabling what you profess to be so against.....those who pick/choose which laws to follow.....3rd world banana republic style, enabling the anarchy/pick and choosy law thingy right at the top. Nice job with your vote there finn!

Of course the establishment is worried about this....trump speaks strong against donors/the bought and sold system. This is all about power and money and the rest is noise, N/A. Isn't that obvious? Haven't you noticed how most of both parties are nervous about him? Regardless of the fear out there about this/that/the other thing, the donors are beyond nervous about him and of course you know donors rule politics from there and the answer is obvious the primary source of worry for them....to those with both eyes open anyways.

One demand was for a “CSLA housing space delegated for Black students.”

A number of pro-Trump supporters donned masks and carried posters showing Democrat candidate Hillary Clinton behind bars.
Pro-Trump organiser Leandro Mohallem, 26, told the website believes support for Trump is necessary for the US to prevent Clinton from coming to power, branding her as the "American Dilma".

Lawyer Mohallem is referring to former Brazilian president Dilma Rousseff, who was ousted on Wednesday following an impeachment process.
That's my point. One Trump supporter called her something, and you present it as if all Brazilians are saying it.

It is quite telling violence is already erupting over Trump being in the US elections.

And by the way, there's a difference between not caring about something in the sense that it won't affect my vote, but caring enough about it to discuss it. I assumed most people I was talking with would be bright enough to grasp that, but then I forgot that I was talking to Trumplings.

I blame Comey, because he is the only one wh tampered with the elections. Pretty much everyone (except die-hard Trump supporters) agree he made a mistake by doing what he did. He should have investigated the emails as opposed to creating a media circus out of it just before the elections.

Yah I saw the fine distinction but thought it was an accident on your part.

Nice job in "caring" enough to want to elect the same bought and sold/lying/inept/self serving types in over and over again of either party. And obviously happy with the direction of our country with the donors/the $ being served first and you and me last, picking up the crumbs.

I hate to see what your non caring side looks like.

If your buddy followed the rules and didn't have a private email server against the rules, the "circus" would have never come to town.

But keep up your symptom addressing game.....

Again and again, you prove incapable of formulating an argument based on anything other than assumptions. Hillary Clinton is unquestionably the second worst candidate in the history of the United States, and belongs in prison for the rest of her miserable, hateful life. But right now she is the only thing keeping the worst candidate in the history of the United States out of the White House, and if that's the bullet i have to bite, then 'll bite the damned thing and pray to god we can get her the hell out of there as soon as possible after she's torpedoed trump.
