Which is why we have a nut job like Hillary running. The very idea of a criminal under current investigation should tell you just how low information, insane, and downright idiotic the Hillary supporters are. "But like, who cares, we need a female as president, and if you don't vote for her, you're racist....wait, that was for Obama....what's the memo again? OH, you hate females, you man pigs!"

They call Trump crazy...that's laughable. Trump has been right on everything he's said thus far. Hillary has barked like a dog, made some of the dumbest campaign slogans, avoids interviews like the plague, and won't answer to accusations...which no, fools, that's not "taking the high road", it's because she can't remember all of her lies and doesn't want to get called out while everyone is paying very, very close attention, most especially Trump.
Great post.

I look out for me too... and after 8 years of "Change we can believe in" it's time for "we need change, not 4 more of the same."

Well, this is how I see it. I look out for me because I've learned this. There are those who would vote for someone who would stand against my best interests. I have to try and counter that vote. If I don't look out for me, who else will?

Something else. Being disappointed with our current President doesn't mean Trump will be better.

That's right... and it doesn't mean Hillary will be either.

What's cool though is for the most part the American people vote change in every 8 years.

Since 1952 only once has a party won 3 straight terms... (Reagan 80, 84, Bush 88)

In every other election following a parties 2+ terms in office... the other party won. (1952, 1960, 1968, 1976, 1992, 2000, 2008)

So based on that trend... Trump will be elected in November.

In 2008, you reasoned that no African-American with a Kenyan name would win the White House, didn't you?

To me, this year feels a lot like 1988.

Well, I'm thinking 3rd party this November. Even with this act of terror, I look at things like this. After some of Trump's current behavior and some very dumb things he's done, I wonder what he might do to me this November. I actually do feel that way.

Many people felt Trump's reaction to the tragedy was totally inappropriate. He might grab himself a few votes with his fear mongering, but as far as looking like a leader--he did not. He showed horrible judgment, as usual.

Sure, but it doesn't work that way around, so I don't know why you bothered.

Orange is not the new black.

Nope... I knew the Dems would win... I just didn't know if it would be Obama or Hillary until she dropped out.

John McCain? C'mon man... you know that ain't happening and I'm a Republican.

Obama's skin color didn't have a thing to do with my vote... although I'm sure it did yours. You probably think Hillary is a sexy old granny that will be a perfect POTUS too.

Has her corruption really blinded you?

... and I'm glad it feels like 1988 to you. When was the last time a Democrat got elected to follow a 2 term Democrat anyway?

1830 something?

No, he is not a leader. He a mainly a man behaving in a petulant manner. Former President Bush wouldn't do this.
