This for an hour's worth of nothing. She certainly won't be fighting for those at the bottom or any other working American. No reason for her to.
IMO Trumps going to surprise a lot of people. I'm thinking that his core promises of kicking illegals out and punishing companies that outsource will bring back many jobs.

But the American people are desperate for what they believe is a quick fix.

When inflation hits because of this quick fix, you can blame him. I know Florida food, homes, and a multitude of other services will skyrocket in prices because Americans won't do what the immigrant population is willing to do at least in the state of FL.

It is likely if not certain that payoffs and crooked deals are involved in Trump's land development. Now, I suspect that Trump is probably savvy enough that he's put some distance between himself and these payoffs. However, anyone who knows how business is done in the big cities in the East knows that Trump has to be involved in some level.

Yes, some shady business dealing is probable, just like the Clintons. So? They get a pass, why not Donald? He's not claiming to be perfect, he is a tough businessman that can play the game. He has promised to bring us into the game and play for the whole team. True or not, his supporters feel it is worth the risk. In other words, this stuff doesn't matter. It would certainly boost his huge ego if he could make the biggest deals ever as POTUS and WIN.

Ahh. Citing Hitler is a sure sign that you have lost all legitimacy at argument.

I've thought about this as well. It's going to be time for these moochers to pull themslves up by their boot straps and work. Or else be cut off from the dole.

Nailed it. Trump isn't Hitler, not even Mussolini. He's Berlusconi with worse hair and less charm.
