When we were broadcasting from Manchester for the primary Rocky and his son were pushing really hard to get on the air and were douchebags about it when we said no.
I think visiting that site has ruined my internet for the next month or so, since I just got this ad on Twitter:

Allegedly, Obama has cancelled his remaining campaign stops for Hillary.

An old lady doesn't understand how e-mail works and is too careful about what she says.

OMG WORST PRESIDENT EVER!

I'm voting for the loose canon who mocks cripples, sexually assaults women and has gone bankrupt 4 times. It's the only logical choice.

The last thing we need right now is somebody with common sense who can keep a secret.

This is more or less what I was getting at. In the context of everything that's happened the last several months, this email thing is a total non-story, yet the press insists on milking it.
All of the Hillary (and Obama) "scandals" are non-stories. I've never seen people get so worked up (and conservative government waste so much money) about a whole bunch of absolutely nothing. It's almost funny to hear people analogize about why Hilary is worse than Trump. It never even comes close to adding up, but then they'll stand back and look at you like, "LOOK WHAT I FIGURED OUT!".

And they have answers for everything, no matter how ridiculous, as long as it defends Trump. I have a friend who works with cripples and when I brought up the Trump thing he said, "Oh, those are hand motions that Trump always makes. The press twisted it and blew it out of proportion. They are always trying to make him look bad."

I am going to have to wrap duct tape around my head to prevent it from exploding.

The classified nature of the emails isn't the biggest deal, but if there was a coordinated effort within the federal to shield her as a private citizen from being charged, that is kind of important.

It certainly speaks to her incompetence (and possible criminal negligence), but I guess when the other candidate is almost certainly a literal fascist, it seems unimportant in comparison.

So, the only voter fraud that's happened in the election actually voted FOR Trump. Not only that, Trump says the fraud is ok, as long as the votes go to him.

I think he truly gets off on how *stupid* his followers are, and that he can pretty much say anything he wants and get away with it. Hypocrisy means absolutely nothing to these people.

This is one of the dumbest pieces of coverage I've seen throughout this election cycle.

Yet it's somewhat accurate. The reaction of anger in the press towards Comey is telling; whatever they found on Abedin's laptop doesn't matter because Trump. If this were anyone other than Hillary, she would have been forced out already, but Trump. We are making a shit ton of excuses for her corruption because somehow the republicans have a worse candidate in place, but what does that say about us?

Consdiering the Republican candidate for president, I'm not sure this new revelation is really the straw that breaks the camel's back regarding our dignity. In regards to this race, that got jettisoned ages ago. I also don't really see why "Trump is worse" isn't good enough, and it ties into something I've never really understood about a person who will only support someone that checks every single box for them. Out of the 350 million plus people in this country, I'm offered two of those, and am asked to choose one to lead the country. Couple that with the fact that these people are often coming out of situations that will lead people into ethical quandaries more often than not, and I'm fairly shocked that in my life I've had a chance to vote for a viable presidential candidate I actually respected and supported.

The e-mails are important, sure, and if she wins I have no doubt we'll be hearing about them for years to come. Unfortunately at the moment that point is moot because Donald Trump's the other choice, which makes my decision fairly simple.

should Donald J. Trump step down? Apparently he has been accused of sexual assault by 11 women in the past month
