    Just an absolutely spot on speech by Hillary today. She needs to continue driving home that Trump's base are people that want dysfunction in this country, they want racial tension, they want race wars, they want to be able to attack others who don't look or think like them. This alt-right movement is exactly what is happening. I mean, Trump is so dumb he called Alex Jones respectable. Alex Jones is one of the biggest psycho right wingers out there. And than he hires the head of Breitbart???? Lmao. That's all Hillary should talk about from now on, is attacking these people that he admires. He talks and associates with the most fringe of right wing nutters. Plenty of them are here on this website, there are websites all across this country. Mostly white nationalist ones, but they literally want dysfunction.

    They don't like the country they live in, they haven't since the 1800s and when they could do whatever they want and control whoever they want. It's a very dangerous movement. I don't know what Trump was thinking, but he pretty much guaranteed a landslide by his choice of O'Bannon. It is completely the opposite of the "shift" he needs. He's pretty much tripling down and going even deeper in to the crazy world of far right conservatives.

    Hillary needs to keep hitting on that point. Just nonstop, reminding everyone, what Trump wants, who he associates with, and his primary supporters. A group of agitated people from white nationalist groups, the new alt-right, American Nazis, the KKK, psycho conspiracy theorists, the furthest right fringe. I mean, it always seems like Trump is intentionally trying to lose this election because everything he does makes no sense. He has the crazy people locked up to vote for him and now he's targeting the even crazier people. But if you haven't heard her speech, it's a good one. She finally took off some gloves and attacked Trump.

    I think she was waiting for the moment when he reached critical mass and the moment that Breitbart came on board, critical mass was achieved.

    Hear that sound on the Republican side after Clinton ripped Trump a new rear-end?

    Hear that sound?

    CRICKETS.

    Not one single Republican Party upper-up has defended Trump from Clinton's attack. Not Paul Ryan, not Mitch McConnell, not Reince Priebus. Not a word on the GOP website. Not one word.

    True.

    It makes the minuscule handful of people (who actually still think that Trump still has a prayer) look even more delusional.

    You sound delusion and a bit panicked, but boy is the press behind her:

    Washington Post: Bill Clinton Allegedly Cheated on His Wife

    Um.

    Sunday’s Washington Post Magazine has two cover stories, one for Bill Clinton and one (if you turn it upside down on the other side) for Melania Trump. As expected, Bill Clinton is going to get a gushier treatment. Post writer Neely Tucker is so tender to the president that he mangles a fact, and the copy editors (also tender hearts) allowed it. “Fact Checker” Glenn Kessler will not be assigned to this story.

    Tucker wrote, “He allegedly cheated on his wife, repeatedly, even in the Oval Office, and with a young woman who wasn’t that much older than their daughter.”

    Just wait for the response, the problem with political ideologues is they assume the race is over because Clinton made a speech about Trump being a racist. Wait for trumps response, Hillary won't be able to debate him she almost lost to a 70 something year old socialist. I mean come on, you think because she attacks Alex jones this is going to end the trump phenomena? The fact that those war mongers aren't supporting him will only continue to have him surge with voters. Hiring the head of brier art is bad? What about Clinton hiring the head of the DNC who cheated and rigged an election for her?

    Lmao, Hillary will destroy him in the debates. The one thing she knows is policy. The one thing Trump doesn't know is policy. He'll look like a clown up there. But good one, lol.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Lmao, this is the easiest election since I've been alive. Trump is universally hated. He has no chance. But I was just getting a little upset Hillary was laying low. Glad she came out and said what every normal person was thinking. I know the Bannon pick was what gave her the ammo. That was so dumb. He basically picked the furthest right "mainstream" group out there to run his campaign. This is comedy gold. Congrats on picking the worst candidate this country has ever seen.

    The failure of your retort is in multiplicity, not only do you willingly ignore my assertions you also forget to take a look at the past 24 years of roller coaster rides. Has the minirity community had any meaningful advancements in living standards? Us bonds are lower than ever before while the stock market is peaking, and wages are flat. This implies stagnation and we've been printing money at 0% for 8 years. Hillarys policies have given the rise of trump and you assume her policies will end him? As long as we neglect the truths set fourth by economics will we see the rise of more demagogues like Trump and Sanders, populism is on the rise because of the Clinton bush Obama policies, please don't be so misguided into assuming she actually knows what is best.

    Further more, she knows how to flip flop and use policies to defraud American people time and time again, which trump will bring up in the election.

    The reason Trump is popular is because of his lack of experience in political banter.

    Obama has a a 53% approval rating. Trump has a 62% unfavorability rating, lol. Attacking Obama's policies is not going to help Trump. He doesn't have enough alt-right voters out there. He's done for. And he's definitely not going to look good in debates against Hillary because no one trust anything he says except his degenerate poorly educated base. Hillary will tear him apart. Sorry about your badass luck. Better luck in 2020.

    Again, even conceding to the possibility of the approval rating being accurate, it does not reflect the state of our society. Obama suggests that everything is great while we have violent riots almost every other week, Obama suggests the economy is fine while we see the millennial a being the most unemployed generation in American history. The mere fact that there is a Trump shows that Obamas policies are a failure, the fact that Hillary had to cheat to beat Sanders shows the democratic base is no longer on board with the party, and shows the animosity of the people.

    This debate is obviously going no where because you can not respond to any of my arguments all you can produce is doctored statisctical assumptions.

    Prefect speech? I thought that meant she had sentenced Trump to an hour's detention.

    Just because people are "upset" with the state of our society does not mean everyone is dumb enough to blame Obama. Obama has a 53% approval rating, the Republican lead Congress has the lowest rating in recorded history. People are not going to vote for Trump because they're unhappy with a Republican Congress, lol. Trump by all measures is absolutely the most disliked presidential candidate in recorded history. I don't know what you guys are watching. Heck, even people like Glenn Beck, Ted Cruz, Mitt Romney, and the Koch brothers can't stand him... and you think he's gained tons of votes from Democrats and Independents to make up for the loss of support he has from conservatives and republicans? Lmao. The dude is toast. I don't know what you guys are watching. You can support him all you want and look foolish, but at least be realistic.

    Very strange election. Trump's main selling point is that he's not Hillary. Hillary's main selling point is that she's not Trump.

    Hillary is Tweeting Breitbart headlines to embarrass Trump. You can see some of them here.

    They include:
    "Birth control makes women unattractive and crazy"
    "Hoist it high and proud, the Confederate flag proclaims a glorious heritage"
    "Would you rather your child had feminism or cancer?"

    Way to engage minorities and women Donald.

    Trump is going to lose big time. With all the dumb stuff he has been saying lately it almost looks like he WANTS to lose.

    Everything in Clinton's speech against Trump and the Alt Right....was based on FACTS.

    And notice? The Trump campaign came out quickly to just generally dismiss it (they didn't even try to refute the facts, just said "Nuh-huh!")....

    and NO prominent Republicans came to Trump's defense about the speech. They know it was factual and they don't want to be seen being associated with the "Alt Right."

    So, 10 hours have passed and still, no upper-up Republicans are coming to Trump's defense. Not one.

    Bingo. Spot-on. Trump has doubled down on the double-down one time too many and now with the Immigration reversal which really isn't a reversal, what Latino is every going to believe the man? Hordes of Republicans of name and some fame who know how government really works and more importantly, how it HAS to work in order to keep us safe night and day are gritting their teeth and grudgingly giving their support to Clinton. I've never seen anything like this before in my life. And it is showing in polling EVERYWHERE, not only in the toplines in two and three-way race matchups, but also in questions about the firmness of the respondents' choices. Too many more voters are already locked-in for Hillary and not enough are locked in for Trump and soon, early voting will commence. This race is Hillary's to lose, no doubt about it.

    We shouldn't discount that as a possibility.

    If he intends to lose, why should he bother to conform to the normal routine of nominees making their tax returns public?

    The reality tv performer would be subjecting himself to ridicule, humiliation, contempt, and derision for nothing.

    My concern is that Hillary has cast her lot with the establishment Republicans (and vice-versa) and is going after establishment Republican votes meaning, like Bill, she will be a DINO. Be prepared for another 8 years of middle class stagnation and NON-CHANGE.

    Agree, and my other concern about her is her penchant for using our military and proxies to effect "regime change" in places that are none of our business. I worry that with her at the helm our military will be misused and that she is going to endanger our country. I see a strong potential for getting drawn into yet another unnecessary war under her leadership. Military conflict with Russia is on the table as a possibility.

    My opinion of her in foreign policy is that she is a moron and out of touch with common sense. I worry that she will be the most dangerous president in history.
