2016 Democrat National Convention
- Thread starter Walter
- Start date
Somebody said (and I paraphrase)
"Funny how everybody is so upset about what Trump says, but not about what Clinton has done'
Point.
And I am NOT a fan of Trump, who is a liar, a con-artist, and a danger to both the Constitution and national security.
The problem is.....so is Clinton.
BTW, you link leads to a Democratic Party site........it is a little early for the Dems to be declaring victory over the Republicans.

Jumping from the frying pan into the fire is a better analogy.

I doubt if Trump is any choir boy by any stretch of the imagination and I have no doubt that he tells the odd fib, but with Trump what you see is what you get- he doesn't try to hide the "rough edges" and he won't take any crap from anyone, nor is overwhelmed with this political correctness sh*t. As far as Hillary goes, of course her husband, her daughter and the Democrat President are going to speak highly of her and anyone who is fooled by that just isn't playing with a full deck. GO TRUMP GO!

Some points I'm wondering about that nobody seems to have noticed:
1) The Muslim father who lost his son. His son was definitely a hero. No one will dispute that and may God rest his soul!
BUT:
a) who was he fighting against? Muslims!
b) what about the fathers of the soldiers who were gunned down at Fort Hood by guess who? A Muslim soldier. None of those grieving
parents were invited to speak.
c) his wife stood silently beside him with her head covered, nothing to say. The father never referred to her at all or acknowledged her
presence, just spoke about HIS son. That was HER son too, fella!
d) he said that Trump has not lost anything or anyone. Who or what has Clinton lost? He asked if Trump had ever visited the graves
at Arlington. Has Clinton?
Where were the parents of the soldiers slaughtered at Benghazi? They sure weren't invited!
I don't doubt there are Muslims defending America but let's not forget that they are fighting against Muslims. How the hell is anyone supposed to know which one's are on America's side?
Then there was the retired 4 star general and his followers assuring us that 'Clinton will defeat ISIS'. I wonder when she is going to start working on that?

Congratulations, those arguments sound suspiciously like the ones used to justify the rounding up of Japanese Canadians in WWII. You're certainly in good company
To paraphrase Hillary.. the phrases of "getting America to build things again" and a country of "full employment and rising wages". Well HOW, sweetie.
Maybe she hasn't been keeping up on current events but America is in the throws of an industrial collapse which has put it into an existentional crisis. It has a cause.. it's Free Trade. It's NAFTA which her husband Bill rammed through Congress over the opposition of his own party.. and a host of other agreements which has dismantled the integrity of the American industrial economy, destroyed the work place, wiped out unions and left a flea market economy of minimum wage service jobs in its wake.
It's the debacle of rigged, deregulated markets in housing, equities, currency, commodities which Bill AND every other President of the last 45 years has championed allowing a parasitic and predatory cult of hedge funds and investment banks to take control of the World.
It was Bill Clintion, the most radical Free Market President of that era, who completely ditched all Wall Street oversight and regulation which led directly to the 2008 housing, derivative and debt bubble and debacle.
It's failed, honey. And you have NO solutions.. except more of the same.. more empty promises. I honestly don't think has a clue about economics.. she relies on advisers that Wall Street and her husband have given her.
She's every bit as incompetent and as credulous to the nonsense sophistry of Free Markets as Bill was. She would be a disaster as President.

Well done.
Bill Clinton was the sleaziest bit of human garbage to ever live in the White House as President.
Hillary is worse.
They are "pieces of work" for sure, but the "sleaziest bit of human garbage" may be a little hyperbole!
Warren Harding and Dickie Nixon might have held that honor.
plagiarism...clinton-style.

Yeah....okay.
Andrew Jackson was a whole different kettle of fish........a man I do have some admiration for.......great soldier, courageous in a fight be it a battle or a duel, a man of frontier principles, an enigma.
