Dick Allen Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Hillary's book where she writes about the debate where Trump appears to be stalking in back of her and he wasn't "impressed. Beleive me." She now says she was thinking "back up you creep" which is probably not true. But if she would have said it, I bet she would have won the election. It would have spun Trump so crazy, and people would have probably appreciated he stood up to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man people really need to understand that Trump's base is his base. Hillary won the popular vote by over 3 million votes and lost the electorate. People just did not show up the polls to make sure Trump wasn't' elected. I guarantee you will see a bigger turnout in 2020, if he hasn't resigned by then. With all that being said, the onus is still on Hillary for losing to such a weak opponent, she herself was so weak that she couldn't get people excited enough to go out and vote for her on election day, which is sad. Trump definitely woke people up, which may be a good thing for the complacent people in this country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think finding out about her emails during the primary sunk her mostly. People underestimated the power of the progressive base that voted 3rd party or stayed home.

I had told many people probably 7 or 8 years ago that Hillary could never win. Too many people hate her, unfairly or not doesn't matter. Just as another Bush (Jeb) couldn't win.

StrangeSox Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 The Republican Establishment Stands Behind Trump Of 146 state party chairs and national committee members asked about President Trump's response to Charlottesville, only seven were critical. In the wake of the violence in Charlottesville, The Atlantic reached out to 146 Republican state party chairs and national committee members for reaction to Trump’s handling of the events. We asked each official two questions: Are you satisfied with the president’s response? And do you approve of his comment that there were “some very fine people” who marched alongside the Ku Klux Klan and neo-Nazis? The vast majority refused to comment on the record, or simply met the questions with silence. Of the 146 GOP officials contacted, just 22 offered full responses—and only seven expressed any kind of criticism or disagreement with Trump’s handling of the episode. (Those seven GOP leaders represent New Mexico, Texas, Virginia, North Dakota, Alaska, Massachusetts, and North Carolina.) The rest came to the president’s defense, either with statements of support or attempts at justification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightni Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 24, 2017 -> 11:43 PM) I didn't understand this post. Did you read the article, greg? The presence of Michael the Black Man - variously known as Michael Symonette, Maurice Woodside and Mikael Israel - has inspired not only trending Twitter hashtags but a great deal of curiosity and Google searches. Internet sleuths find the man’s bizarre URL, a easily-accessible gateway to his strange and checkered past. The radical fringe activist from Miami once belonged to a violent black supremacist religious cult and he runs a handful of amateur, unintelligible conspiracy websites. He has called Barack Obama ‘‘The Beast’’ and Hillary Clinton a Ku Klux Klan member. Oprah, he says, is the devil. Most curiously, in the 1990s, he was charged, then acquitted, with conspiracy to commit two murders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pure strain Trump. https://twitter.com/LauraAJarrett/status/90...src=twsrc%5Etfw "Law and order" has been dog whistle for "crack down on black and brown people" The transgendered ban is also being put in place without the DoD having finished their report.
