Thread: President of the US of A

I wish the FBI would hurry up and indict Billary already!
Who would vote for her anyway, with her history of corruption and investigations?
A misinformed fool?

Would a person hire another person who under suspicion of a crime?
Heck NO!!!

And she wants to be president ?!?!?!?

Glad I am not voting in the US elections.

(These are just my opinion...and in no way reflect or are endorsed by this website)

Here would be my vote for President if I could put anyone in that this world has in it. It is a shame he is not of this country but I have more faith in this man than our, well, I use this term loosely, politicians!

Even at her worst, Clinton is a thousand times better than the tangerine-haired joke the Republicans are about to nominate.

That's a joke, right? If not refer to post #351 above...

I leave this post with no words other than...........

I really think this thread will be shut down soon because I believe it is going to get ugly! Then I am reminded wars have been fought for less than political candidates and whose is better!

I am disappointed that Frances Perkins was not chosen to be on the new $20.00 bill.
Who's running for president?

I am so, so tired of facing yet another none of the above ballots.

Yes, I wish that was an option on the ballots up here at times. The only alternatives seem to be not voting or spoiling the ballot. They don't care if you don't vote and nobody keeps track of spoilt ballots either because they don't count for the outcome. Makes it impossible to show your dissatisfaction with the system in a meaningful way.

As many have noted before me, Hillary is actually more Republican than Trump (look up her record, ignore what she says). In any event, the Republicans roundly rejected the one guy who could beat her according to the polls (Kasich).

Of the two presumptive nominees, I just want to hang my head and cry-is this really the best we can do? But barring possible indictment, she will most likely trounce The Donald in the general, and he will cause widespread down-ballot damage, as many Republicans appear to be abandoning ship in favor of Clinton.

In any event, as bad as Hillary is, an unlikely Trump presidency would be an unmitigated disaster for us both domestically and abroad, and might even spell the end of the Republican party as we know it; it has already split seemingly irrevocably between the base and the establishment. At least one splinter party seems likely at this point.

Of course on the other side, the seething revolution Bernie Sanders has tapped into among millenials and other disaffected groups is causing a similar, but slower split among Democrats between the Clinton "third way" politics of triangulation and liberal progressives, so a reckoning is brewing there too.

And finally, most of the pundits' predictions for this unprecedented election season have almost all been dead wrong. Still, I am predicting absolute chaos in Cleveland this summer at the Republican convention. If there are not actual fistfights and violence on the floor inside (which seems likely even though a contested nomination is no longer a threat, and I think the establishment won't dare try any backroom deals (probably)), there will almost certainly be protests and violence outside. You may recall that when this happened in Chicago in '68, Nixon was able to capitalize on the fears of the "Silent Majority" and win the election, and finish the process LBJ's civil rights legislation had started of flipping the South to the Republicans. So there is a chance he could win, and then God help us.

People are kidding themselves if they think the president of the USA is running any of the show.
We have an inexperienced community organizer that has coasted through 8 yrs, while someone else pushed an agenda, and those someone's are both parties in Congress.

Example. "We have to pass it to read it." None read it before it was passed, and I really didn't see a big push to stop it. Just a lot of lip service.
