Two lousy options, but a vote for anyone but Trump at this point amounts to helping the hildebeast regime take power. No way. It's going to have to be a vote for Trump and hope that he's not as bad as hildebeast.

I don't think that is what he said.
Why are you consumed with the urge to twist everything someone says that doesn't agree with your liberal bias?

NO, NO, NO!!!! there is no candidate that HAS your vote until you give it to them in the booth. A vote for a green party can is just that a vote for that person, not a vote for the other candidate. This twisted way of thinking that a vote for Johnston is a vote for Clinton is nothing more than a scare tactic to keep people in line. Everyone that hates Clinton but still votes for her instead of voting their heart is EXACTLY what they want you to do. There has to come a time when you stop worrying about you don't like or want in the here-and-now and worry about the future. The reason both Clinton and Trump act the way they do is because they know when it comes time to bite the bullet Americans would rather bend over and take a big fat spiked one up their ass then do something that might be for the better good. It is the every people that guilt others into voting for one of the major two that is a huge part of the very problem they claim to despise.
To all those that are planning on staying home this election, PLEASE don't! If you hate the major two, do yourself and the rest of us a favor and vote a third party. Don't stay home and complain that there is no good candidate, DO something! In 2012 54.9% of those able to vote in the US did. If the other 45.1% voted for a 3rd party candidate would not have a Trump of Clinton in the White House. Don't be part of the problem be a part of the solution!

What is the source of this core belief that Hillary and Bill are the most corrupt, evil, lying politicians in history? I know that so much was built up decades ago via Newt's coalition through unfounded conspiracies and accusations that persisted well beyond investigations that turned up nothing.
This type of incessant and unfounded train of accusations is a well-publicized strategy championed by Newt, and it has survived despite any real factual basis. This has inculcated within the typical conservative mind the feeling that the mere presence of persistent accusations is evidence of truth alone.
I don't really like Hillary, but this core belief that she is a grand liar unique in our political history is pure delusional fantasy. Despite the legality and common nature of her and Bill's corporate speeches and fees, I do find these things distasteful for people in their position--but again, it is for whatever reason activity that no one--especially conservatives--hold against any other politician. I find her cold and distant, but that in no way disqualifies her from being president or from any of the positions under which she has served admirably. The major issue that I don't like about her candidacy is that I don't like this dynastic nature of the presidency--I thought Bill was great for the time, but I do not want another Clinton, I do not want another Bush--outside of policy, I simply don't want to see the presidency under the control of a very small handful of families. That is, in fact, my only real complaint against Hillary.
I see those issues in the words of "Hillary is a corrupt liar!" types of people because such people never have a foundation from which to base these beliefs. It is decades of brainwashing, because they will always point to tired old fantasy bullshit cooked up by a coalition that only ever cared about perception over substance. When one begins their defense of such beliefs with "whitewater" or "vince foster," you know the individual is mired in a "feelings" structure of facts being secondary to repeated accusations entirely void of substance. Weak-minded people are susceptible to such tactics.
Even the core of the republican party has publicly admitted that the Bengazi charges against her were nothing more than a political farce. But this little nugget festers in the contemporary conservative brain. Who cares if the accusations are a sham? They were made, and she's already had a history of accusations--therefore true!
Trump is a fascist. That is plain to anyone that is paying attention. Any support of Trump, for any reason whatsoever, is a clear endorsement of fascism. Period.
Even if Hillary were the evil god-hating liar that small-minded republicans believe her to be, that is no excuse for supporting fascism in the US. In a way, this is why Trump is the enema that the repub party needs--take the chaff out with him. Hopefully his disastrous candidacy will live on in book deals and re-education camps such that his acolytes can fully embrace the new order, leaving the repub party forever and disappearing into their own insignificant and properly marginalized communes in remote areas of Montana and Wyoming, taking pictures next to Trump cardboard cutouts over the next decade while shoveling piles of money into his coffers, promising to win back the country, again! some day....some day.
Are you really fearful that in the unlikely event Trump is elected pres, he would actually use nuclear weapons?So apparently in his foreign policy briefings Trump kept asking over and over why the US couldn't use nuclear weapons, saying something to the effect of 'we have them, why can't we use them??' If that report is true, would you maybe want to reconsider your choice?
The only way to make a third party viable is by changing the fundamental way candidates are elected. Until you do that, voting for third party candidates is a waste of time and effort.
Are you really fearful that in the unlikely event Trump is elected pres, he would actually use nuclear weapons?
So your telling me that if the almost 45% of those that did not vote last election were to vote for either Stine or Johnston, we would still end up with a Clinton or Trump as Prez? Your math is a bit off there.
Stop requiring others to make a change for you and help to make the change for your self.
As my grandfather always said, shit in one hand and wish in the other and see what hand fills up first.
Are you really fearful that in the unlikely event Trump is elected pres, he would actually use nuclear weapons?
Do you understand that even a modest increase in likelihood of that event is an insanely bad thing?
Iran? (your thoughts on whether you believe we cut the best deal possible w/them)
Are you really fearful that in the unlikely event Trump is elected pres, he would actually use nuclear weapons?
You cannot believe she is an honest and truthful person? Ignoring everything for the last 2 decades and just looking at the last few months, exactly how many times has she lied just about the email issues? Ignore any legal issues with what she may have done or did not do, there is at least 5 or 6 things she lied about.
(1) Emails were used just to communicate with Bill. Bill does not use email.
(2) No marked as classified email ever when through her server. Several marked as
classified or higher were found.
(3) All email was turned over to those investigating. All of them were turned over, except for the 30000 she deleted.
(4)And when asked if she had permission to run her own server, she stated she asked and was given permission. That request was never submitted or granted.
That is just 4 outright bold faced lies about a simple thing that even you have to acknowledge. There is no dispute of these things, they are fact, not something made up by some back room group of "small-minded republicans bent on getting rid of Hillary. In my book when someone lies to you about something so simple to prove, they have and or will lie to you in the future.
And the email thing still doesn't tip my "Oh, she's a secret anti-american agent!" meter that so many people want it to be. It strikes me as misguided and, only in retrospect, incompetent at many levels--the IT people that set it up and the advice that she may or may not have gotten that this was a good idea. Or if that was simply her intention all along.
Obviously she lied about points of this investigation. I don't see them as dangerous lies or any that point to an intentional attempt to cover-up some conspiracy that "surely must exist! because Hillary." Again, it stinks absence any other influence--but it reeks to the degree it does merely in concert with the decades of conservative brain-conditioning to scrutinize anything attached to Clinton.
She didn't turn in many of them because they were deleted--when were they deleted, these 30000 emails? At the moment they were supposed to be handed over, or over the course of her tenure as SoS?
My interpretation of the email thing is yet another situation that would just breeze on through the public not-give-a-shit meter were it anyone but the evil Hillary Clinton.
The deal with Iran made a nuclear weapons release less likely, not more likely. I don't know what the best possible deal would have been with them but the deal we did cut was very positive for us.
Exactly, you're wishing. This is a collective action problem where the incentives are aligned against you to an impossible extent. If all 45% dos suddenly decide to vote for a third party that would indeed change things. You have absolutely no way to harness people to do that though and you never will so long as our system remains winner take all.
People vote for the two parties because they are voting strategically. It isn't dumb of them to do, it's the undeniably smartest choice given the system of elections we have.
I really would love to know where you bought those rose colored glasses. You have your mind made up, that is clear. So long as you are OK with her lying, who am I to convince you otherwise. Enjoy the day!
"I despise this woman because decades of unfounded and repeated charges against her and her husband's character spearheaded by butthurt republican children have eventually convinced me that the mere persistence of such spurious charges is evidence of truth. Therefore, I choose fascism."
Sounds about right.
Exactly how Mussolini and Hitler came to power. Good for you, little fascist shit stain.
Lol, I knew it wouldn't take long before some stupid idiot would bring Hitler into the discussion. You fit the bill, congrats!
