Who cares what Hillary earns or deserves. Vote for her because you will actually get to live in a better country than with a Trump presidency.
I care. It's my vote. And I know Hillary doesn't care. Somewhere in there is the crux of the problem.
So you care more about whether Hillary deserves your vote than about the quality of the country that *you* live in? Are you willing to have a tanking economy in which you or people you love lose their jobs just under Trump just because of how you personally feel towards Hillary?
LOL - No, I should vote for Hillary because you can read the tea leaves. There's too much hyperbole in your question. This negative voting rationale is not going to change my mind.
I just don't get the mindset where you care more about the candidate's personal thoughts, feelings, or whatever than about your own well-being. I just vote based on what I think will be in my own interest and the interest of those around me. If I think path A will lead to a better outcome than path B, I follow path A.
I don't get why you are projecting that mindset on me. I have said two things.
1. Based on her lack of charisma/passion/convictions and the level of republicans opposition she is not going to get the job done or make America better.
2. I am not interested in voting for who makes America less worse, because I think voters need to send a message to establishment politicians that they need to get their **** together. I am done voting for the next person who will pander to the 1℅. I get that right now it feels like there's too much at stake here in this election. But,i have been around long enough to know every election feels this way.
I am still going to vote for every other race on the ticket. I am not trying to make the same political statement at every level, and I don't have enough information to make reasonable assessments in every race. But I will vote to keep the right wing ideology out.
The gesture of not voting for Hillary is largely symbolic, but I believe that if more people resisted voting "against" candidates we would have a much better democracy and a better country. You may not agree with this but I am voting or not voting in this case to make the country better. I am taking a stand and given what little influence I have in the system, quite possibly the only stand I can take.
The message I am trying to send is more important than removing the spectre of Donald Trump. Because this corrupt partisan politics is why we have problems like Donald Trump to start with. This is not a one time problem. It won't go away if he loses. Next election there'll be another pompous scumbag spewing this hateful garbage and people will be eating it up.
"spewing this hateful garbage and people will be eating it up" I think you're drinking the juice here. What hateful garbage is he spewing--show me the facts.
Dude, seriously? Go back to Fox TV, quit while you are ahead.
Nice way to dodge the question. Give me facts
Birtherism. You gonna promise to get your head out of that hole in the ground?
So you're a racist if you question where someone was born?
You are racist if you keep questioning it after the document that is accepted by the entire civilized world as proof of birth has been furnished and directly disputes your BS claim.
believe racism is complete hatred and bias of another race how does questioning one individuals birth place racist ? Really it sounds like you are racist the way you answer if that is the standard you are setting
BRIGGS, you don't need to show utter contempt to be a racist. KKK rallies combined with contempt and hate are not the defining line we set to invoke racism
noun: racism
the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races.
prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.
Read that twice Martin and don't forget to stop at the part that says"all members of each race" and explain how that applies to questioning one persons place of originRight now if you feel that Trump is the guy you want as President somehow you are dumb naive and or racist. I think those sentiments make people want to vote just a tad more. Those are the fck a that are looking down on others to be blunt about it
Hilary said "Half" are in the basket. Half.
Hillary is a disgrace to women. She accepted that her husband cheated on her for over 30 years with multiple women. Shes not to dissimilar to Bill Cosby's wife. She's an enabler shes very dishonest her colleagues dont like her(which is the big killer for me) disingenuous power hungry failing physically she has a poor work track record as a cabinet member. I cant sit here and think of many positives can any of you? Its funny how Hillary can break Donald Trumps cahones by inviting Mark Cuban but its not ok for Trump in response to invite Gennifer Flowers. Its all the same sht--shes deserves it for starting it--simple end of story.
If your judging on things that are important to you, then his infidelities are ok?
If your going on rumors, at least hers don't include raping a 13 year old. He indicated his attraction to Ivanka in a way few men would ever do so. He even objected her as a baby saying she had sexy legs. A baby. Youtube it.
Her colleagues don't like her? What about Him? he surrounds himself with his kids who have some deplorable tendencies as well, and yet he screwed bond holders, contractors and of course "Trump university"!!!! His failed casinos, air lines, etc is a trail of tears.
His comments about women, his bragging sextual bravado while married.
Mark Cuban vs Jennifer Flowers and all you come up with is "Well she started it". Briggs, your an adult!!! Two wrongs don't make it a right. "Well she started it"......Briggs, of all the things you have ever said, this one really shines above all. Instead of having the strength to be above any petty circumstance Trump is more intent on fighting back. He has said this. I think sometimes being strong enough to see the big picture and show restraint is good character for a president. Trump is historically more intent on satisfying himself than what is good for his companies, investors, students, and employees. Think all those people who have lost their jobs or companies when he sucked out the profits and left others out in the cold. Trump university took not just monies, but dreams and futures.
"Americal first", no HISTORICALLY its TRUMP FIRST!!!!!
Her track record in the senate and as secretary are subjective. Compared to others, she is ok. You don't like her, so your gonna focus on the bad.
"failing physically" Wow Briggs, you have some women issues. You said a few days ago you thought back in the day she was kind of "sexy" , but not you judge her appearance?
All the things you said about hilary are mostly true, but you fail to measure Trump in the same manner. its like you have a double standard. You have plenty of company btw.
BTW, I have you in the non deplorable half of the basket.
