All is well

America has the right leaders.

A while ago VP Kerry waxed poetic, a la Ambrose Bierce, about how understandable the terrorists are. After all, who are we to tell others we're Boss, so get over it already.

Obama knows better, too, and so does Hillary. But Trump has been hired to play out the appetite for bold, self-assured populist patriotism, and when he goofs it, Marco Rubio will be tapped to validate Hillary. After all, she paid her dues, and who could be better managed than Hillary, from the cartelist perspective?

We work for the folks, we devote ourselves to their TV, news, and every possible aspect of our lives is staged for the better good.


If we really elected folks who would overturn our apple cart, we wouldn't know where our next meal would come from.

So anyway, I'm signing up. I've been invited into the club.

Sarcasm won't change America.
And neither will good looks.

We are worthless.

No, babe is on to something. There is a peacefulness to his words. Acceptance brings serenity. Apple art, his great metaphor for everyday life, even when it's overturned and rolling off the table onto the floor, is still life and beautiful on it's own.

 

[BabyPeterzz]

I think this country and the people in it are pretty awesome.

 

[JAZZGASM]

As much as I am tired of politicians being PC and lying out of their collective asses, I do not want Trump to be my leader.

 

[Gameface]

I don't like any of the candidates. That said, I don't believe they are members of a secret society with plans to enslave humanity. If they are trying to get ahead or gain themselves advantages, well, that is what humans do. It isn't surprising and it isn't an indication we've all been had.

Does Trump even have a chance if he IS nominated?

Doubtful, thus the conspiracy theories about Dems using him to destroy Reps.

no

I believe he has about 35% of support from the bottom of the barrel republican *******, but I don't think very many more republicans would support him if he got the nomination and he would get very very little of the swing vote and pretty much none of the dem vote. Basically it'd be, at best 60/40 in favor of the dem if Trump was the nominee.

At least I really hope that's the case.

??? Democrats are paying him to do all this??? How does that work???

It's called a conspiracy theory for a reason. There is no evidence of such a thing. But many believe his nomination would be a disaster for the party.

What if he announces a HUGE tax cut? He's a businessman after all and I wouldn't be surprised he uses that kind of bait to 'seal the deal'.

It's a pretty far fetched theory though...

Right.

He has been friendly with the Clintons and donated money to their campaigns.

The conspiracy theory, as I understand it, was that he joined the race on the R side to muddy the waters and put the republican ticket in disarray. By the time there is a nominee they will be playing catchup to Hillary. If the nominee is Trump then it's a guaranteed win for Hillary. If it's Rubio or Cruz we'll only just start getting to know them as all the attention has been on Trump.

I mentioned it because Babe, a conspiracy enthusiast, mentions it in his post.

I guess as a prominent businessman it would be prudent for him to 'hedge' and donate to both parties...

stop being reasonable, we;re talking about conspiracy theories.

For the record, I could see a World War III breaking out if Trump does somehow become the next President... LOL

 

[mellow]

For the record, I believe WW III has been going on since atleast 2014, maybe since 2008. Libya, Egypt, Georgia and Ukraine have been the battlefields. Syria is just a continuation of that war. More will come.
