    It really comes down to two salient facts. Hillary to the extent that it matters is a left wing ideologue. Trump is a deal maker and not an ideologue.
    More importantly, the next president will nominate 1-4 supreme court justices. I think you ca cut a deal with Trump and get more constitutional conservatives on the court. With Hillary that won't happen.

    Translation: "We know Trump doesn't have any real ideas or policies that can be realistically implemented so our only choice is to focus on Hillary instead to instill the fear card"

    Trump has certainly met my qualifications requisite. But i would vote for Mayor Mccheese before i would another Clinton. I'd vote for Bernie if he was a conservative, and Trump wasn't running.

    When you talk about Constitutional Conservatives, they know Trump is not one of them and they know Hillary isn't either. It is a lose, lose situation for them. In the end probably most will end up voting for Trump. What percentage of most is, I am not sure. I would guess 75-80% with the rest staying home or voting for the Libertarian or Constitutional Party candidates.

    A lot of them will say we went this route, of voting for the lesser of two evils and it has gotten us no where. Why continue something that doesn't work?

    Anyone who scares career politicians enough to make them fear him, is doing something right in my book. Anyone willing to stop the gravy train...👍

    Are you serious?

    Not only that but Hillary has a severe problem with being truthful about anything. So I have no doubt anything she says to get elected is pure BS. The evidence is that she can't even keep her answers straight. It amazes me that dems would even try to run her for president.

    And you prove me right again. When someone says something bad about Trump, his ideologues automatically switch to deflection mode and try to bring up the Dems or Clinton.

    BTW, I love ideologues that think just because someone is against Trump that means automatic support for the Dems. Sorry, but not the case here. Both Trump and Clinton are worthless and neither should be near the White House.

    Trump has flipped flopped more times than Kerry. Trump also is saying or doing anything to try and get to be President.

    The fact that you think your side's (*)(*)(*)(*) don't stink is hilarious. And as I've stated before, neither Clinton nor Trump should be near the White House. Anyone supporting either candidate is supporting lies and if they don't realize that they are lying to themselves to make them feel better.

    No, he won't. You just drank the Koolaid just like many Obama supporters drank the Koolaid of "Hope and Change". You bought into a meme and nothing more. Memes are cute, but nothing more.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Can't disagree there, but you don't get to where Trumps at without being a lying bull(*)(*)(*)(*) artist either. Keep believing that Trump is somehow different and not being a bull(*)(*)(*)(*) artist all you want, you are just lying to yourself to make yourself feel better.

    You're too cynical. I believe things can and will get better. I am optimistic about a Trump Presidency, and the people with whom he surrounds himself. Obama didn't really have much to offer.

    There's a BIG DIFFERENCE between a candidate that says things to get elected when it requires Congressional approval, and candidates that say things they don't believe at all in order to get elected.

    Lies aside, I'll pick the candidate that DOESN'T have the potential of being convicted of a crime. LOL

    Of course, those that drink the Koolaid of Trump and Clinton ALL think things will get better. However, his "Make America Great Again" is nothing more than a meme. But hey drink up all you want, just don't be disappointed if he wins and doesn't do what he says. Trump is a bull(*)(*)(*)(*) artist and able to spout off things, but isn't going to implement them.

    No matter if Clinton or Trump get elected, America is screwed....again. two decades of politics has shown that.

    Keep thirsty my friend and drink that Koolaid. I know others have said it tastes good, but its not going to get you anywhere.

    My sons are hard working, middle class. They are going to vote for Bernie. They say he is the only one that has the working class' backs. I tend to agree, even though I am centrist, and do not believe in socialism, and like some of the things Rand Paul has to say, Sanders is the only one who seems legit in his concern for the working class. They know that the establishment will never let Bernie win, but they don't care.


    As for me: I wrote Rand Paul's name in. But, his hard tilt towards libertarianism seems like a plan for corporate anarchy, and open borders to me; and I can't vote for that. I might just throw the ballot away, or ask for another ballot, and, like my sons, vote for Bernie.

    You don't even have a clue what drinking the Koolaid means when you are voting for Hillary. My preference for president dropped out and NOW I'm voting AGAINST Hillary.

    Sheeesh!

    Where am I voting for Hillary? You just continue to prove how many of Trump's supporters are ideologues and don't bother to think rationally. I'm not voting for EITHER Trump or Clinton. However, YOU and the other Trump supporters are doing nothing but lying to yourselves. and yes, you can throw in the same for Clinton voters.

    Keep thirsty my friend and enjoy that Koolaid :roflol:
