Not an issue as there is no one running who can do that. Going to take a monster third party candidate at some point to get it done. I doubt if I'll be around to see it.

 

I do still hold out hope that someone will appear that can at least work with the other side, although they aren't in this election. My point about Trump, is that from reading many posts here and elsewhere, lots of people seem to believe that Trump will just fire everybody that's not on board with him, and will be able to clean up Washington. Washington doesn't work like his businesses or his reality show. And if his party doesn't support him, there's no way he gets anything done.

And to take it further, what makes anyone believe Trump will be the guy to change things and unite the country? He's struggling to unite his own party.

 

Unity? :lol2: You don't actually believe that they give a crap about that, do you? It's all about "winning", consequences be damned.

But...but...he's going to make America great again!

Seriously, it's still too early. I just know it won't be the guy who, according to Michael Gerson:

 

"Make no mistake. Those who support Trump, no matter how reluctantly, have crossed a moral boundary. They are standing with a leader who encourages prejudice and despises the weak. They are aiding the transformation of a party formed by Lincoln’s blazing vision of equality into a party of white resentment. Those who find this one of the normal, everyday compromises of politics have truly lost their way."

Just cause someone who you like says something, that does not make that statement correct and likewise for me to be fair. Every article published that says anything good about the conservative side is immediately downplayed by posters on here as right leaning or a homer. While the left can quote anyone under the sun and its suddenly the absolute truth. Do you now that the right can say and has said much worse about Obama and Hillary? Is it all truth or is it a lie? Thats my question to you.

If people who support trump have lost their way, how do you describe someone who supports Hillary and the awful things she has done?

Opinions are like...

 

 

...but it just so happens that I believe the one I quoted.:thumb:

Just remember a vote for "3rd party" or stay at home might as well be a vote for this

 

 

No it's not.

My take? Electing someone who is (by far) the lesser of two evils.

I appreciate your take, I wonder if Michael Gerson quoted above acknowledges the numerous flaws in HRC and how someone who supports her supports a traitor of the US or if he has his blinders completely on.

The problem is that neither side really wants to work with the other side. That's why I expect it will be years, probably decades, before it happens and it will take a third party candidate to do it. Neither side can let the other side be successful, no matter how good it might be for the country.

Agree 100 percent. National politics has been a two-party urination match for quite some time now.

That is the bottom line for many people trying to decide between the two, they just have different views on which is the lesser evil based on the qualities they deem more important.

Correct. Which is why it's funny when people claim voting third party is the same as voting for Hillary. They very well could be taking a vote away from Hillary just as easily.

Trump has been painted by the media and the left as a bigot/racist. That's just simply not true. If you don't like the guy because he has no political experience or speaks his mind and doesn't follow certain political "rules"...fine. If you dislike him because you think he "hates" women or "hates" people of minority then you are just misinformed and have fallen prey to the lies the media and left wing.
