I didn't say that, I merely pointed out your words and the presentation lack synergy.

Former Navy AG(Aerographer's Mate), now I work at home and play housewife. My wife is a QA manager at a biomedical research company and my son is starting his senior year of HS as a starting offensive lineman. I TRIED to get him to play D-line like I did, but he's not nearly as quick so..

I don't like Mitt, I didn't like Mitt in 12, I don't like him now. I think he's a good man at heart with honest (if wrong) intentions. Read that.

Trump is a con man, whose con has fooled so many it boggles the mind how stupid people are on such a large scale.

Outstanding. While he didn't reach Vietnam my father did fly F-4's :) AF though, so..

I think a vote for Trump IS a vote for Hillary. His views and and politics aren't really different then her's. He's admitted as much for YEARS. Right now he says a different tale, but that's because he needs your vote, not because his views are different.

Perhaps he is counting on winning and having a corrupt head of the DOJ that will refuse to enforce existing law and provide top cover for him.

Oh yes, maybe Trump will choose a winner, like "Judge Judy" eh? /smh I'm not voting Hillary, and I'm not supporting Trump. In fact, for the first time in my life, and I started voting in 94, I won't be voting GOP from top to bottom.

Hell I haven't even sent in my donation for the year. It's not a huge amount, but every dollar helps, I haven't helped, I know I'm not alone in abandoning the GOP for their failures.
 
Not only is Trump soliciting donations from Brits, but from Icelanders as well. He is soliciting campaign contributions from liberal foreigners, as well as conservative foreigners. This is..... well...... very illegal. I think the time has come for Republicans to seriously consider replacing him as the nominee. This may be just the motivation they need to oust him.

Article is here.

Clinton can get donations from China but Trump can't do it?

Thanks for showing us more proof that the Clinton Crime Family is above the law.

Well hell...that shouldn't bother anyone, right?

I mean, Obama does it, Hillary will do it...by some accounts even Bush, Clinton, Bush and Reagan did it.

What's all the hoopla about, eh?
 
Most politicians know how to shirk the system, but they usually do it in ways that they can't be held accountable for, or they do some appeasing in order to sort of balance things out. What Trump is doing, is calling the system's bluff. He's both reckless and arrogant, which are two qualities that would shine if he became POTUS.

A man like this who ignores the rules as it suits him, with no attempt at appeasing the polity, is dangerous to a democracy. To me, this is upping the ante to a whole new level of corruption in the United States that we can't allow to become to the new standard. We've already sunk too deep.

Between him and Hilary, we've seen all the evidence we need to see that illegal behavior is par for the course now in people who are supposed to be our most trusted upholders of the Republic.

Golly, I don't know. Probably for the same reason President Obama violated that law and why Sen. Clinton has violated that law and that would be...for the money. Neither President Obama nor Sen. Clinton think it's fair that foreign nationals are disqualified to vote so why should they turn away money from China and Venezuela.

"Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign is allowing donors to use largely untraceable prepaid credit cards that could potentially be used to evade limits on how much an individual is legally allowed to give or to mask a contributor's identity, campaign officials confirmed."
Obama Accepting Untraceable Donations

And I ran across this:
"According to the FEC, “Foreign nationals are prohibited from making any contributions or expenditures in connection with any election in the U.S. Please note, however, that ‘green card’ holders (i.e., individuals lawfully admitted for permanent residence in the U.S.) are not considered foreign nationals and, as a result, may contribute.”

These “foreign nationals” include foreign governments, political parties, corporations, associations, partnerships, persons with foreign citizenship and non-permanent resident immigrants."

Apparently foreign nationals can contribute to Democrats.

In the interest of full disclosure, I think it's a tragedy that our great country will have Mr. Trump and Sen. Clinton as the two candidates in the fall. I think it's ludicrous for either to attack the other. Neither has a principle beyond "If the money's there, I do not care."

Proves the theory that, if Obama or Hillary stick their heads in a bucket of pig manure, they would gladly do it too, because Obama and Hillary did. :mrgreen:

You lost me there.

The point is there is no significant difference between the lying Democrats even if one is running as a Republican.

I will never again vote for the lesser of two weevils.

Fair enough. A toast to Gary Johnson then? :)
