Guys, if you want me to make this clear, I think Trump is a horrifying disaster of a person and thoroughly unfit for the Presidency and, for all her faults, Clinton is, by an immeasurable amount, the better and more qualified candidate and who I would vote for if I had to make that choice.

I believe this is a civil suit, not criminal.

Birds in Hell is right. Donald Trump should be in charge of Australia.

It solves almost everybody's problems.

That would be fucking stupid. It's only an "issue" because the Repulicunts made it one. The same with Benghazi. It's just a non-issue that those crybabies have blown way out of proportion, because they are desperate to make her look more sleazy than Trump, which will never happen. It's just a distraction, and it works really well because the mob mentality can go really far in this country, as I am sure you've noticed.

We're not dealing with smart people here. How else can you explain them supporting building a huge wall across the Southern border of the US to *possibly* stop less than 1% of the illegal immigrants from entering the country? It doesn't get any stupider than that.

Sometimes I wonder if he is just seeing how far he can push things and have people still believing and supporting him. I'm not sure if there is a limit. For someone like him, there is probably no better feeling.

And it looks like I was 100% right that Trump was in this just to start his own TV network and "cult" of personality. TrumpTV was just launched the other day.

I think he knows damn well that he will never win, and is just going out of his way to make a mockery of our system and our country, and rightfully so.

This thread needs a bit of levity.

Room for me on this jet? I've got a great digital copy of Binaural Deluxe we can listen to while the world below us burns.

Would it really be that surprising? It seems like rich and powerful people are caught up in this shit way too often. Also I cite that Jared from subway and Anthony Weiner were both in Sharknado 3

I don't have a very informed opinion of either but, from what I gather, I probably have zero common ground with Stein.

Johnson seems pretty likeable, I found his recent "gaffes" endearing.
