Getting booed by globalist elite scum or liberals that are too blind or stupid or both to continue to support the criminal wench

She knew that if all the emails were subject to FOIA requests, her campaign to be potus would be over before it began. So she bought her own server so no one else could view the emails she was creating.
Then she took the documents that belonged to the American people and destroyed them.
Hillary then had the unmitigated gall and arrogance to lie to the American public in the UN press conference (and many times since), and it has all been proved to be flat out lies. How, by the very emails she attempted to destroy!

Say what you will about Trump, and a decent amount I will likely agree with you on. However being crass, rude, and thin skinned is hardly comparable to everything Hillary has done while in public office.
Can't you see that?
No. They plug their ears like children and scream

Trump's jokes were better and more self-deprecating. He even poked fun at the bashing his wife took when she used oft-used expressions that Michelle used and claimed were original. And Melania laughed heartily.


The room was full of corrupt media, so one would expect Trump to be boo'd when he spoke the truth.

He's either a moron with no sense of humor who thinks he's going to be the next president or he's throwing the election so Clinton can win.

It'll probably be 10 years or so until we find out the truth.

Normally i would suggest he did a bad job by not keeping it light and i know that all of you would have liked to see a lighter side of things since everything has been so tense, however, if you want to make the case that poking fun at the entire situation would essentially 'condone' all the illegal behavior and corruption that's been uncovered recently, you 'laugh together' and then people think 'aah, its a big joke' but Trump is all in that this isn't a joke, so he went the 'serious' route. I think if i was his advisor i would have told him that if he doesnt' want to keep it light, don't keep it light, but you can't morph into a debate guy at this place, he needed to tone it down a bit.

At any rate, its just another 'thing' the other side can bang him about, its another meaningless thing that has nothing at all to do with policy, jobs, our finances, our borders, etc. so to me, i could care less who said what and what tone was used, its all going to blow over anyway when Hillary's indictment is handed down, hopefully that comes before the election and not after.

Isn't this the same event where George W. Bush called the attendees the haves and have-mores and then called them "my base?"

Oddly enough I watched it in reverse order. Well semi reverse. A friend shared a clip of trump that was pretty funny. So I found clintons set first...watched it, and then found a complete clip, and watched from when Trump took the stage.

Clinton was funny, but I kind of thought some of it was out of place at a Catholic charity to be honest. Then....I saw what had preceded her. That was horrifying. A mixture of ok material, and saying some nice things....but the rest? Whoa. Just....what was he thinking? Has anyone at one of these in the past ever been booed before? That was....boorish.

Watched it from start to finish. I stand by my statement.

trump bombed bigly. He's either a moron or he's teeing the election up for Clinton.

If it makes you feel better, I believe he's a moron.
