Hillary Clinton has been an entitled bully her whole life and watching Donald Trump lay into her was sweet justice imo.

* Her vicious attacks against Obama in 08
* Her vicious attacks against Sanders in 16
* Her deleted e-mails (real criminal acts)
* Her attack against rape victims and covering up Bill's criminal acts
* Her use of the media to gain favorable coverage

Donald was able to say what many blue collar Americans wanted to say to Hillary. Even if Hillary wins, Donald exposed Hillary as a terrible person who likely will be a 1-term Presidents, unless she gets impeached by courageous politicians willing to prosecute this witch.
 
Too little too late.

So blue collar workers are a lying stalking serial sexual abusers with vocabulary of a 10 year old and who fancy their own daughters?

Just tweak that a little.
 
Many of us opposed to Trump fear that his strong authoritarian tendencies and his belief that only he knows how to fix America is a deadly combination that could well put us on the road to fascism. Last night Trump did what third world dictators have done - threaten to put their opponents into jail. This man is the greatest threat to America that we have ever seen in a political candidate for the Presidency. He must never be allowed to gain power.

So two entitled bullies fought on television and you're proud of one of them. I sincerely hope you don't come to seriously regret that statement.

I'm proud of neither of them. If I'd been around when Al Capone and Bugs Moran fought I wouldn't have cheered for either side.

To be fair Trump didn't threaten to persecute Clinton, just to subject her to the same justice every other American would have had to face if they stored classified data on a unsecure home brew server.

He made it clear that his intent was to put her in jail. One of his many rude interruption said that quite clearly. that is precisely the kind of politics and abuse of power that we see in aspiring dictators and wanna be tyrants.

Trumps natural tendency is to destroy those who oppose him by any means necessary. After all, that is how he won the nomination in the first place. He is a bully who embraces lies and dirty attacks to engage of character assassination of his opposition. And that is a hallmark of the tyrant who would use legal power to attack and utterly destroy or silence their opposition.

Having seen several interviews with the true author of THE ART OF THE DEAL Tony Schwartz where he describes Trump - it is indeed scary as hell to think this man could one day wield the awesome powers of the presidency. Schwartz describes a man who is relentless in his desire to dominate and will do anything to come out on top. And that is what we have seen over and over and over again in this campaign.

What he did last night with those four women was beyond repulsive. He told the world that it is okay to attack a women who has been wronged by her husbands cheating if she stood by him and forgave him to save her marriage. the complete lack of empathy he has is reminiscent of a sociopath.

He said he would call a special prosecutor too. Trump may have been an ass about it but that comment about putting her in jail isn't going to hurt him, on the contrary.

Too many Americans know if it was them, if they got busted with classified data on a homebrew server they would be in Federal prison, not in the WhiteHouse.

Thats something that Hillary will never be able to shake. She's proven that justice is for the little people, for the voters.

The comment about sending her to jail was just one in a long line of dog whistles to the hard right who is the base of his support. Combine that with all the other things we know about the man and he borders on the morals of a sociopath who is so dangerous that he must never be allowed to assume the presidency.

Correct, and the appointment of a special prosecutor would be the first step in that process. It is the threat of that sort of retribution that undermines our democracy.

Anyone else would likely be in jail for doing what she did and FBI director Comey pretty much stated that fact when he said "don't think that anyone else who did the same thing would not face serious consequences". She wouldn't hesitate to send anyone else who has the misfortune to work for her to jail for doing the same thing.

Really ? Neither one of these candidates has the high road when it comes to moral and ethical conduct. I would say theyre pretty close to being equal when comes to being a scumbag.

According to the Wikileaks dump, Hillary was lamenting the existence of ethics rules forcing public servants to divest in certain assets before taking office.

Trump was right to bring up a special prosecutor. I know Democrats who want her put in jail and who think Hillary's done irreparable damage to the Democrat brand.

Theyre sitting this one out because they think she's the status quo above the law elitist thats going to pander to special interest once she's elected
And theyre absolutely right.

Yup, unless that person was a large donor or a close aid.

The Libs underestimate just how pissed off so many Americans are at this glaring example of a rich and powerful and connected elitist getting away with something that would have landed them in prison for years

Exactly. Trump has a tremendous advantage which he uses in business and in politics to get this nomination. That advantage can best be expressed by the old question - in a bar fight - who is the one you want to put your money on? The correct answer is the balls-to-the-walls absolutely craziest psycho in the fight. That is the guy who will do anything and then some to win. And that is Donald Trump.

Tony Schwartz - who for nearly a year spent more time with Trump on a daily basis than any non family member to write he book ART OF THE DEAL says Trump has no conscience and is obsessed with winning at any and all costs. And if that means blowing the whole thing up if he does not get his way - so be it. And everybody in New York business knows this about Trump and now people in politics are learning the same lesson.

Trump will lose in November. But he leaves behind a terribly damaged Republican Party. And he leaves behind a culture that he has weakened and debased and made worse for his involvement in it. And he does not care.

I heard a friend say that if Trump were a character on the GOTHAM tv series, he would start out as an inmate at the Arkham Asylum, soon find a way to become its director, then become mayor of the corrupt city, and finally it would be his opposition residing in the bowels of Arkham.

I think that is a very accurate insight.

The man must never be allowed to be President.

Maybe he should be a comedian then. Certainly not President. The Presidents job is to protect our rights, not to lay into political opponents.

Oh BS. So Trumps fair game to the media, the Democrats, Hillary, her supporters and her camapaign but Hillary's off limits ?

Except one - Trump - is clearly an megalomaniacal authoritarian who has delusions of their own abilities and who has demonstrated their willingness to use a scorched earth policy to destroy their opponents and could well take this nation on the road to fascism

Whatever damage Trumps done to the GOP will be quickly repaired and then some by a Hillary Clinton presidency.

She'll be considered a elitist above the law criminal by a half the American population and nothing builds the Conservative base like the consequences of the Progressive agenda.

That is your opinion and the facts fail to bear you out that she should be in jail. Many people though Richard Nixon should have been prosecuted and jailed for his crimes in 1972. But that never happened either as the system said otherwise.

But that is NOT the point here. The point is that her political opponent has announced to the world that he will do what third world dictators do to their opposition. And that sort of bully boy tendency should scare the living hell out of every thinking American.

Would that be the spokespersons for the same half of the American people who from day one decided Obama must fail?

And this sort of perpetual opposition does not disturb you and you see no negative results for our very system of representative democracy in such permanent every day every way balls-to-the-walls no holds barred opposition?
