What video? The quote itself is attributed to a Magazine article.

http://www.snopes.com/1998-trump-people-quote/

Hillary who is responsible for the deaths of about 2 dozen of her detractors?

Hillary who attacked the character of about 5 women that her husband assaulted and/or raped?

Hillary who committed a felony that even the FBI admits anybody else would be in jail for?

Hillary who called young black men "super predators" and supported the bill that put so many non-violent offenders in jail?

Hillary who was against gay marriage until it became popular to be for it?

Hillary who was for building a wall on the border until it became popular to be against it?

Hillary who has been downright nasty to the soldiers she has encountered (when the camera wasn't running)?

Hillary who speaks out against white privilege while enjoying every bit of it?

Hillary who speaks out against Wall Street while they finance her campaign?

Hillary who has been caught in lie after lie after lie after lie?

That Hillary? A saint you say? Trump isn't making Hillary look like a saint, the media is... by focusing 95% of their vitriol toward him while she skates by...

Please, no more facts! They can't handle the Truth!

She skates by because your boy somehow, someway, manages to one up her every single time.

Think about that. Every thing you just listed is valid. It's accurate. It's the truth.

Yet for some unholy reason, you conservatives managed to find the ONE guy on the planet who, lol, trumps her.

I told y'all before, the democrats give y'all rounds after rounds to blast us with.

Yet, by the powers that be, y'all decide to take those same rounds and use it on yourselves.

I just do not get it.

It's like y'all WANT to be known as the party of bat sh.. Crazy.

Daman, what video did you watch?

Hillary is responsible for the deaths of two dozen of her detractors?

Where did you get that "fact" from?

I don't think that's DC's boy since he voted for Johnson in the poll.

I really hope that ain't his boy.

But he sure is acting like it.

It's funny, but I didn't know it. Anyway, I just thought it odd that you would say he used Cocaine without making it clear why. Like he was a druggie or something.

Oh it's been on TV running as a campaign ad from some pac. Next time I see it, I'll get the name of the pac and share it with you....

Actually I was taking a shot at trump for acting like the guy doing drugs more so than the guy doing the drugs.

No, he's probably just tired of the heavily biased media focusing on every alleged thing Trump has done while Hillary is equally as repulsive, but is largely ignored.

You know, I used to think the North Korea media was pretty ridiculous because they would completely make up stories about how Kim Jong would hit 3 holes in one on the same round of golf. But then I read fluff pieces from the AP about how great Hillary is, while seeing second hand accounts from people who've actually worked with her say how terrible she is, and wondering if our media is just as "state-run", but they just do a better job of making it look believable.

Make no mistake, Trump is vile and I would never vote for him. But if you think he makes Hillary look like a saint, I don't know what to tell you.

Man what?

I haven't gone through a day without reading something negative about Hillary.

Her emails is a daily topic. Benghazi is a daily topic. Her marriage is a daily topic. I can go on and on.

Maybe you should, I dunno, broaden your news sources. I can't go through a day without reading nonsense from both nominees.

AP slams her left and right, too.

This is one of those situations where it seems like people are seeing what they want to see.

Cause I see both sides slapping each other constantly.

Here's a pro tip: trumo gets slightly hammered more because:

A. He's fresh blood. New kid on the block. And

B. The guy can't keep his mouth shut.

Excl, you don't think Hillary would be getting blasted by the media if she said even HALF the crap trump has said this election cycle?

You can't be mad at the media if Trumo is literally FEEDING them crap to write about.

Why can't he keep his mouth shut and handle business come debate time?

LOL Some politician in California has put up some kind of a poll or something that asks for a formal mental capacity test of Trump...

I don't have time to read that thing right now, but I think this is the article.

http://www.rollcall.com/news/politics/karen-bass-wants-mental-health-professionals-to-evaluate-trump
what I read of it was funny

Good idea, then we can hook Hillary up to a Lie Detector!
Have the Fire Department on stand-by if the building goes up!

You mean we need holy water for Hillary.

40 sure hates the next President. Wonder if he'll hate Trump when he's done handing her the office?

It's been 5 minutes, what stupid thing has Trump said now?

The new thing is apparently about trumps comments a while back about the use of nukes.

I'll get you my pretty...

And your Old Cold Dog Too!

Which is exactly what I was getting at. It's a 3rd hand account from an "unnamed source" who was sitting on a panel of the extremely liberal MSNBC. And now a bunch of outlets are running with the story.

Meanwhile, I just linked a first-hand account about Hillary Clinton recently acting like a DB to a military dog handler, which has been somewhat verified to have happened, and the only place I read about it is on Facebook.

Speaking of Facebook, saw this one yesterday:

Q: A boat carrying Hillary and Trump capsizes off the coast and sinks. Who is saved?

A: America.

Because comments about nukes and Hillary acting like a jerk isn't exactly comparable.

Apples and apples, bro. Especially if we're talking about the info coming out at the same time.

Hillary is a massive jerk. How does that relate to nukes, again?

From the internet, the same place he got that Trump kicked a baby out of the rally and asked about using nukes.

Simple, we have decades of verifiable proof that Hillary is a jerk.. we have one clown from MSNBC giving an unsubstantiated report that Trump asked about using nukes and we have zero context for it even if he did ask.

You know there's an actual video of that, right?

There is a video of the exchange, nobody was forced to leave.

Just checking. lol

We have decades and an election cycle verifying trump is a jerk with little foreign policy knowledge.

"Russia isn't in Ukraine"

I loved that one. I guess it's just some guys that look like Russians soldiers, then?

Or maybe they just got drunk and accidentally stumbled into Ukraine? That vodka is rough, yo.

http://wqad.com/2016/08/03/hillary-for-p...raws-criticism/

Parade float with Hillary in a cage in prison uniform. Children encouraged to throw water balloons at her.

I abhor Hillary but things like that don't help anything at all.

That's fine but the comparison that was being discussed was Trump's alleged nuke comment and Hillary being a jerk.. you are now introducing a third variable, Trump being a jerk... which he is, but that has nothing to do with his nuke comment.

I brought it up because that's an apples to apples comparison.

Hillary is a jerk. So I brought up something comparable.

Fair and balanced. Like Fox News.

Fair enough..

I've stated before that is the hardest part for me in this whole process..

In public Hillary is very polished and professional.. but there are umpteen reports out there of her being totally psycho when the cameras are off..

Trump is a lunatic when the cameras on, like he always has to be putting on a show, being rude and insulting people.. but there are a bunch of reports out there of him being a great guy when the cameras are off...

I don't really know what to believe about either of them.. as far as them just being a jerk.

Republicans nominate dangerously insane person to lead America, then panic when he proves he’s dangerously insane

By Greg Sargent August 3 at 3:40 PM


Republicans are in a full scale panic today because Donald Trump’s candidacy appears to be in chaos. There is talk of an “intervention,” inspired in part by Trump’s continuing attacks on the Khan family. RNC chair Reince Priebus is described as “very frustrated” and “stressed,” because he is “running out of excuses” to offer party bigwigs about Trump’s political incompetence and indifference to basic political norms. Republicans are panicking because Trump is frittering away a chance to defeat Hillary Clinton amid “self inflicted mistakes” and “missed opportunities.”

In other words, if only Trump were not acting in such a crazy manner right now, he’d be on track to having a real shot to beat Clinton, and if Trump just gets a handle on his fleeting bout of bad behavior, he’ll be right back in the position of having a good chance to win. An “intervention” just might set that right.

But let’s entertain another interpretation of what’s going on here. Republicans have shifted into a much higher state of Red Alert because Trump’s erratic antics are revealing just how reckless their decision to nominate him really was, and how reckless their continued support for him really is. In other words, Trump is now threatening to damage the party in far worse ways than Republicans had bargained for, because he’s revealing in inescapably clear terms the real character and qualifications of the person they knowingly nominated to run the country and continue to support for the presidency.

[It’s too late for Republicans to retract their Trump endorsements]

This quote from Newt Gingrich to the Post is extremely revealing:

“The current race is which of these two is the more unacceptable, because right now neither of them is acceptable,” Gingrich said in a Wednesday morning telephone interview. “Trump is helping her to win by proving he is more unacceptable than she is.”

Gingrich said Trump has only a matter of weeks to reverse course. “Anybody who is horrified by Hillary should hope that Trump will take a deep breath and learn some new skills,” he said. “He cannot win the presidency operating the way he is now. She can’t be bad enough to elect him if he’s determined to make this many mistakes.”

In this telling, Hillary Clinton is beatable because she is “unacceptable,” and all Trump has to do is be a little less “unacceptable.” You widely hear various versions of this argument. The premise: Clinton is so widely despised that a majority of Americans will leap at the chance to support Trump if he merely acts like a minimally acceptable alternative. Trump’s behavior right now is compromising that.

But this elides the many deeper weaknesses that bedevil Trump’s candidacy. There is no question that Trump’s current follies are likely very damaging. But Trump has long harbored a range of traits and qualifications — or lack thereof — that already render him a very compromised candidate, both in a political sense and in the sense that Republicans should not have nominated him because he is a unique menace to the American experiment.

Trump’s pathologically abusive tendencies, his hair-trigger overreaction to criticism and slights both real and imagined, and his mental habit of sorting the world into the strong and the weak — the dominant and the submissive — render him temperamentally unfit for the presidency. He lacks basic knowledge of the world and doesn’t appear burdened by any curiosity about the complexities of foreign affairs or domestic policy. He is at worst a genuine bigot and at best a charlatan who has actively sought to stoke reactionary hostility to culturally and demographically evolving America. He is indifferent to the inner workings of the American system and instead promises authoritarian glory.

Trump’s basic vision of the country as an apocalyptic hellscape — in which we’re existentially threatened by skyrocketing crime, dark hordes flooding up from the south, and refugee-terrorists menacing us from the east — is based on exaggerations, distortions, and lies. His policy agenda to “fix” things is pure fraudulence. He promised mass deportations that will never happen and would be hideously cruel if he could actually carry them out. He proposed a religious test for entry into the United States — a temporary ban on Muslims entering the country — and then modified that proposal to include a suspension of immigration “from any nation that has been compromised by terrorism,” which is even more absurd. As Ari Melber reports today, experts say his proposal would essentially destroy our immigration system.

[There is something very wrong with Donald Trump]

Trump speaks to legitimate grievances on the part of blue collar workers in the industrial heartland, but he promises to bring jobs roaring back by bullying CEOs who talk about outsourcing jobs, and with trade wars that would do more harm to the economy than good. He promises to preserve entitlements and offhandedly vows to double Hillary Clinton’s infrastructure spending, which is wonderful, except he won’t say how he’d pay for this stuff, even as his tax plan would cost $10 trillion in revenues over ten years, making all of it even more implausible.

All of this renders Trump politically compromised as a candidate. His depiction of the country is pitched squarely at blue collar whites and is rejected by college educated whites and other voter groups, all of whom continue to be alienated by his worldview and persona. Majorities reject Trump’s promised mass deportations and ban on Muslims. While Trump could still always win, all of this is badly hampering his ability to broaden his appeal, casting doubt on the notion that he can prevail simply by being slightly less unacceptable than Clinton.

Beyond this, though, the key point here is that many of the Republicans backing him probably would not quarrel with much of what I’ve said about Trump’s qualifications and agenda. They might be inclined to agree with him on taxes. They have dabbled in the same sort of budgetary hocus pocus and border demagoguery that Trump has. And they do think the 11 million should remain subject to removal. But they agree that proactive mass deportations and the temporary ban on Muslims are basically crazy. Many of them have condemned Trumpism’s xenophobic and authoritarian appeals and many very likely agree that Trump is temperamentally unfit to wield even a fraction of the powers of the presidency. Many of them have adopted a posture in which they say they support him as the nominee but seem to be calculating that he will lose. Along the way, they’re hoping he’ll remain just respectable enough not to reveal just how reckless it was that they nominated him for the presidency.

What’s really happened in recent days is that Trump’s ongoing battle with the Khan family only made all of these traits — the unhinged response to criticism, the bigoted attacks on Muslims, the naked abusiveness directed at a grieving family — more glaringly obvious. By extension, this has made nominating this man even more impossible politically for Republicans to defend. But Republicans knew who they were nominating. They themselves had repeatedly acknowledged that his personal traits were alarming and had castigated many of his positions as cruel and at odds with fundamental American values. Voices from all across the political spectrum, from liberals to centrists to Never Trump conservatives, warned that he would only get worse.

Now Republicans want to stage an intervention?

I have a question:

Why is what Hillary said about Pat Smith perfectly OK?

Pat Smith is the mother whose son was killed in Bengazi, and who spoke at the RNC. Why has the media been all over the Kahns, promoting them at every turn,giving them tons of positive coverage, while Smith has been dismissed by the media? (at best)

The media has lambasted Trump for the things he said about the Kahns, and rightly so. Since they have this level of concern for our Gold Star Families, then why does it only go one way? Why does Hillary get a pass when she, directly, lied to Pat Smith's face about the cause of her son's death, and when told of what Smith said about her said: “I don’t hold any ill feeling for someone who in that moment may not fully recall everything that was or wasn’t said.”

Why isn't the media bringing up that Hillary said, publicly, what this mother said Hillary said about her son's death, only for that to be revealed as a lie?

Why was media reaction to Pat Smith that the Republicans were using her for political gain ...... while using the Kahns at the DNC was somehow a profile in courage? (meaning by the Party, not the family)

Why the massive double standard? The reason is clear ..... but I am just curious as to what some others think.

When people say they see bias in the press, this is the kind of things they see. Bias does not always mean flat out lying in a write up ... it can mean burying stories .... twisting facts, or only presenting ones that further your view, and not the full news story .....presenting them in certain ways, and so forth. There is bias in the press, and it is perfectly clear to those who choose not to look away.

Hillary lied about Benghazi and her sons death? What did she say?

Ytown, thinking people understand that discussing Pat Smith and her son's death only exposes the liberal failing agenda and the lies of this administration.

Same reason they most likely will grant little attention to the 4 mil sent to Iran upon release of the hostages. It will be mentioned, discussed very little with multiple excuses and fallacies then dropped.

You mean it would be similar to Trumps daughter getting questioned about his treatment of women, while the same media ignores and refuses to talk about Bill Clintons use of women?

Weird how that works, isn't it.

Or, is it like this: https://scontent-yyz1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t...amp;oe=581B9FEF

It's weird how the media capitulate and cater to the clintons, isn't it?
