Republicans created Trump

I don't quite understand how or why you're comparing the two.

The GOP is in complete disarray. The party leadership cannot stand trump. Former presidential candidates, leaders in congress, and major influential leaders in the media refuse to endorse him.

Compare that to Clinton who has many democratic endorsements including Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders.

You may not like Hillary. But to compare the two seems utterly ridiculous.

Serious question, did you click and read ANY of the links I posted?
The fact that she has those endorsements is an indictment of the system. Do you really believe that an honest and unbiased person could listen to the evidence that Comey cited and then come to the conclusion that this is the sort of person we need to get behind to run our country? It's an embarrassment that our choice has come down to these two. I agree that it's utterly ridiculous to compare them because they are both so incredibly bad in different, but fatal ways. It is hard to believe that a country populated with so many great and competent people would be put into the position to choose between these two disasters for it's leader.
 
I am glad we created Trump. Enough is enough. It is time to take are country back from all these Chinese an Arab influences. Time to make America great again!

He's popular enough in China to think he's not going to "take back" anything from China.
And the Arab's helped him on numerous occasions.

There is no reason to believe he's against either of these.

Why haven't you picked up Pokemon go yet? reddit saw /r/The_Donald/ posts drop emphatically after it's launch... Yet you're still here.

The line above is not compelling, and convinces no one. It's quite obvious which of the two would be more disastrous to the everyday life of an average American.

If America didn't have some a massive problem with restrictive voter ID laws (clearly done to keep lower class voters out of the booths) it would be very obvious for us to see which argument ppl find less compelling.
 
Hohoho! You got me there!

Still cranky about your lil dysfunction between your legs? Yeah im sorry that even the pills didn't work.

ROFL. You got me there. I mean really got me. Good job.

The fact that you flew off the handle about a legitimate concern I had is hilarious. Keep on doin' your thang though, Thriller. Maybe some day the meds will balance out.

Ridiculous. Liberal's pander to the poor with redistribution schemes, but still can't get all of the people they believe their programs would help to vote (even though they invest millions helping them register- which is incredibly easy, driving them to the polls, etc.), then they blame conservatives for their lack of success.

Again, thanks for your contribution in this thread.

Have you learned how to tie your shoes yet? Still struggling? Is that why you're so frustrated?

Let's re-analyze this for a second.

1. I post two articles linked to the free website hoping for a good political discussion.
2. You willingly enter the Thread and post something completely unrelated. Had you had a sincere question about the legality of it, you could've reported it to the mode or pmed them. Instead, you post about it. By posting about it you reveal that your true intention is merely to troll.
3. I correct you. And give you a neg rep for being a troll.
4. You claim that I flew off the handle.

Who's really the emotional flying off the handle one here?

The bought out mainstream media is to blame, you shouldn't be surprised.
 
The issue here as explained by the authors of the two articles cited, is that for nearly two dwcades the GOP has:

1. Preached anti-intellectualism
2. Xenophobia
3. Anti-elitism
4. Obstructionism

Their candidate embodies these ideals. He wants to wreck the entire system. Make America great again by rejecting the old.

Moderates, party leaders, and big donors cannot control this monster and are running away from it in droves. Just look at trump's campaign donors (or lack thereof). Look at how congressional leaders stay away from him. And look at how writers like George Will have rejected the party altogether.

To compare this to Hillary Clinton? It's silly.

She's a politican, not a reality tv star.
She doesn't campaign on outrageous things; building walls, deporting or banning races, religions, or ethnicities.
She doesn't make fun of intellectuals or deny science.
She has no problem with campaign funding or receiving congressional endorsements from both moderates and those farther to the left.
She campaigns on her ability to work as a politican to get things done.
Trump campaigns that as an outsider he can force congress to get things done.

In short, trump is a wrecking ball for the GOP. A monster which they, party leaders and the media, has created over the course of two decades.

Clinton? Isn't that. Not even close.
 
Let's tone down the hyperbole here.

Clinton committed no crime. There isn't any obstruction of justice. Besides, what would she be covering up? That she and Obama personally planned Benghazi to knock off a US ambassador? For what purpose?

The hyperbole surrounding Clinton and her damn emails show exactly how and why a complete wrecking ball, like Trump, has risen to power.

And Condi Rice and Colin Powell essentially did the same thing.

Those claiming to be objective while demanding Clinton be charged with felony for using a private email server reveal themselves as hypocrites.

I'm curious Dala, how do our great neighbors to the north view the political situation? Do y'all see Clinton as an equally bad choice to Trump?

Btw, next summer I'm visiting Banff. I'm seeing some pics from friends visiting there right now on Facebook and it's making me so jealous

Nobody claimed they were the same so what's your point? What will you be saying if Trump wins? Will that validate or invalidate what you are trying to tell us?

I've read several times in this thread that they're equally radical and/or equally as bad of a choice. Complete and utter nonsense.

How can you possibly be this obtuse?

mmmmmm ya u know nothing on the issue.

Nobody has even mentioned how radical they are. The fact that you can't see what a terrible choice she is simply reflects your unwillingness to look at the facts. Your comment about Benghazi proves that you have no clue what the issue's are.

I don't know of a single person across all ages that would consider Hillary as equally bad (or worse than) Trump.

We all follow the political situation because unfortunately it has massive impacts on our livelihoods as well. I'd honestly vote for Jill Stein and split that Democratic party right into two if the Democrats refuse to make concessions on Palestine, Health Care, Welfare/social programs, Trade, the environment, and military action on their platform.
