We all saw how that turned out.

Mmh, it seems most voting for Hillary are doing so because they fear Trump. Hillary IS using fear to garner votes.

Wouldn't it be nice if people actually voted for someone they liked/respected/didn't fear? Gary Johnson or Jill Stein?

Trump and Clinton are both disasters, and besides- the thing people most fear about Trump (mass deportations, senseless war and ignoring the climate) are things Hillary has actually done.

Trump threw away any ability to exploit the tragedy when he came out with his utterly delusional comments about Huma Abedin and insane suggestion that Obama was maybe a secret terrorist sympathizer.

Hillary is handling this Orlando massacre not only like a true coward, she's also being stupid just rolling over and letting Trump use it to bash her and Obama over the head with it. She's going to **** off many people by shifting the blame to them when they had nothing to do with it.

and who has given you a reason to vote for Clinton?

Why not choose a third party? A majority of Americans would like that.

I never said I was going to vote for her. In fact, in the primaries, I voted for Sanders. If I was a registered Republican, I would have voted for Kasich or Carson.

Our country desperately needs a leader who would be mad as he$$ over these ISIS terrorist attacks; the so-called leader we have now is using the latest attack as a means to bash Congress for not working with him regarding gun control. Obama is pathetic!!

Obama was so frustrated when the GOP became the majority in Congress that he swore he would VETO everything they put in front of him - without even knowing what that might be. So who is the one who is working against our country?

The latest scorecard regarding the Orlando ISIS terrorist attack is:

Trump - Mad as he$$
Hillary - Wimp with a What difference does it make? attitude
Obama - Exploits attacks to bash Congress

Thankfully Obama will not be on the ballot in November; however, Trump and Hillary will. Do you want a wimpy Obama clone in charge with ISIS targeting our country, or do you want someone who is mad as he$$ and will do what it takes to protect our country?

What would Trump's madness accomplish? How would any of the anti-Terrorism ideas that Trump has proposed so far thwart homegrown attacks like this?

Not a Trump supporter, but a Vote for Hillary is a vote for more of the same BS we have seen for the last 15 years.
She was a horrible SS. She lies, she ignored rules, but demands everyone below obey her every whim.
Our current admin is terrified to call an act of terror done in the name of Islam an act of islamic terror even though the perpetrator calls it that. Instead they seek to punish all gun owners for these acts.
So not a chance I would ever vote for Hillary as she is as bad as Obama in that regard.

It looks like this has not a lot to actually do with ISIS.

It looks to me like the shooter was using ISIS as a way of making his dick bigger, giving him an excuse to take out his hate on his gay fellows, because he was closeted himself and instead of facing his reality he chose to commit the ultimate act of cowardice justified in his own mind by extremist ideology.

This had nothing to do with Obama. He is correct to not give this guy an out by subscribing his motive to a higher religious purpose.

And just because the President doesn't jump up and down like a jackass in a jackass factory, I wouldn't classify him as not "mad as hell".
