Unprecedented tax dodge that somehow held up.

If that was true .. we'd of been made aware of it EVERY DAY ... sorry dude .. this RINGS SO HOLLOW ...

I wonder if he ever claimed his UNDERWEAR AS A DEDUCTION ... *LOL* ...

Thought this was humorous, Trump said Hillary would let in 650 million immigrants in one week.


Ummmm


Just how is that mathematically possible Don? It would take Canada, all of Central America, and all of South America to reach 633 million.

Why must you ruin their feelings with your facts, Candy?

Maybe the 17 million comes from Syria? A total population of 22 million people.

I think you're involved. You're getting ready to round up all the deplorables into FEMA camps!

http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/...e-syrian-refug/

Pence pointed to a real policy distinction between the Republican and Democratic presidential nominees when he said that Clinton "wants to increase Syrian refugees to this country by 550 percent." Trump is opposed to refugee settlement, while Clinton supports it, and at a greater number than Obama’s current policy. Clinton supported allowing in 65,000 refugees when Obama supported a 10,000 figure. (The refugees would be screened.) That’s a 550 percent increase. The UN has determined that about 478,000 Syrian refugees are in need of resettlement.

The statement is accurate and we rate it True.

65,000 a year ... thats 1,250 a WEEK ... just over 5,400 a month ...

Pretty funny stuff there ... hysterical ...

This means zilch. Everywhere I go I see a total of zero Trump signs. All I see are Clinton and before that, Sanders propaganda. I certainly wouldn't hang an election on who has more signs or bumper stickers. I am very active and engaged in this election and I have no sign in my yard. Let the people speak on their ballots rather than billboards.

I said this before ..... but I'll say it again:

I think that a lot of neighbors in my part of the country are going to have trouble reconciling with one another after this election. It seems like whenever I see a Trump sign, next door is a Hillary sign. Every time I see a Hillary sign, I see a Trump sign next door. At one house, I saw both a Trump sign and a Hillary sign in the same front yard.

They'll be alright.

Most of us tend to lose our respective passions shortly after elections, because reality sets in... and we realize that we all still have to 'get along' to make Daily Life happen, once the dust settles.

As 'hyped' as this election cycle seems to have been, I trust that we'll revert back to type, and do what we must to get from day to day.

Of course, there will be nut cases on both sides who can't 'let it go,' no matter the outcome.... but most folks are reasonable when it comes to getting along with their neighbors.


Believe it or not- it's actually one of the enduring strengths of our country.

I sure hope so, because I have heard all kinds of reports from this area of neighbors who have basically gone full feud mode as the election nears.

Who would have thought 2 such putrid candidates would arouse such passions?

Thank god Trump won't be winning this election. These storm front, neo nazi's, consistent breibart users, alt-right deplorables feel empowered enough.


Yes, I'm a bigot when it comes to racism.

The KKK’s official newspaper has endorsed Donald Trump

http://www.bostonglobe.com/news/politics...ry.html?ref=yfp

WASHINGTON — Among the small number of American newspapers that have embraced Donald Trump’s campaign, there is one, in particular, that stands out.

It’s called the The Crusader — and it’s the official newspaper of the Ku Klux Klan.

Under the banner ‘‘Make America Great Again,’’ the paper’s current issue devoted its entire front page to a lengthy defense of Trump’s message — an embrace some have labeled a de facto endorsement.

“‘Make America Great Again!’ It is a slogan that has been repeatedly used by Donald Trump in his campaign for the presidency,’’ The Crusader’s Pastor Thomas Robb wrote. ‘‘You can see it on the shirts, buttons, posters and ball caps such as the one being worn here by Trump speaking at a recent rally . . . But can it happen? Can America really be great again? This is what we will soon find out!’’

‘‘While Trump wants to make America great again, we have to ask ourselves, ‘What made America great in the first place?’’’ the article continues. ‘‘The short answer to that is simple. America was great not because of what our forefathers did - but because of who our forefathers were.

America was founded as a White Christian Republic. And as a White Christian Republic it became great.’’

Reached by phone, Robb said that while the paper wasn’t officially endorsing Trump, the article signaled the publication’s enthusiastic support for his candidacy.

‘‘Overall, we do like his nationalist views and his words about shutting down the border to illegal aliens. It’s not an endorsement because, like anybody, there’s things you disagree with,’’ Robb said. ‘‘But he kind of reflects what’s happening throughout the world. There seems to be a surge of nationalism worldwide as nationals reclaim their borders.’’

The 12-page-long, quarterly newspaper calls itself ‘‘The Political Voice of White Christian America!’’ and has a well-known white supremacist symbol on its front page. The latest edition includes articles about Jewish links to terrorism, black-on-white crime and a man who claims to be Bill Clinton’s illegitimate child. An article near the end of the paper writes that Trump’s candidacy is ‘‘moving the dialogue forward.’’

The publication’s website states that its ‘‘number one goal’’ is to ‘‘stop white genocide.’’

Since the earliest days of his presidential bid, Donald Trump has attracted the support of prominent white nationalists across the country, setting off fears that a dormant fringe faction of the GOP base — one steeped in xenophobic and white supremacist rhetoric — would be folded back into mainstream politics.

In the early months, white nationalists said they were reluctant to publicly throw their support behind the controversial billionaire for fear of harming his strengthening campaign. But the group said as Trump became more emboldened, they did too.

In January, Jared Taylor, editor of the white supremacist magazine American Renaissance, lent his voice to a robo-call recording urging registered voters in Iowa to back Trump. Those potential voters, Taylor said, are part of a silent majority who are tired of being asked to celebrate diversity but are afraid of being labeled bigots.

A month later, Trump was embraced by former KKK Grand Wizard David Duke, which led to a controversial exchange between CNN’s Jake Tapper and the Republican candidate. Asked by Tapper to ‘‘unequivocally condemn’’ Duke, Trump pleaded ignorance.

‘‘Just so you understand, I don’t know anything about David Duke, OK?’’ Trump said.

Tapper pressed him several more times to disavow Duke and the KKK, but Trump again declined.

‘‘I don’t know anything about what you’re even talking about with white supremacy or white supremacists,’’ he said. ‘‘So I don’t know. I don’t know — did he endorse me, or what’s going on? Because I know nothing about David Duke; I know nothing about white supremacists.’’

That same month, Rachel Pendergraft — the national organizer for the Knights Party, a standard-bearer for the Ku Klux Klan — said that Trump’s campaign offered the organization a new outreach tool for recruiting new members and expanding their formerly dwindling ranks.

The Republican presidential candidate, Pendergraft said, provided separatists with an easy way to start a conversation about issues that are important to the dying white supremacist movement.

‘‘One of the things that our organization really stresses with our membership is we want them to educate themselves on issues, but we also want them to be able to learn how to open up a conversation with other people,’’ Pendergraft said.

Using Trump as a conversation piece has been discussed on a private, members-only website and in ‘‘e-news, stuff that goes out to members.’’

In addition to opening ‘‘a door to conversation,’’ she said, Trump’s surging candidacy has electrified some members of the movement.

‘‘They like the overall momentum of his rallies and his campaign,’’ Pendergraft said. ‘‘They like that he’s not willing to back down. He says what he believes and he stands on that.’’

In August, the American Nazy Party’s chairman Rocky Suhayda agreed, declaring on his radio show that Trump offers ‘‘real opportunity’’ to build the white nationalist movement.

More recently, Trump’s rallies have been marred by a series of racially charged incidents.

Last week, a black Trump supporter was booted from a North Carolina rally after he was mistaken for being a protester. Trump’s security detail escorted a man out of the rally as the audience cheered.

‘‘You can get him out,’’ Trump said, making a sideways motion with his thumb. ‘‘Get him out.’’

The person in question turned out to be C.J. Cary, a North Carolina resident, who claims to be a longtime Trump supporter.

Cary, in a phone interview Saturday, said he had gone to the rally because he wanted to hand-deliver a note to the Republican presidential nominee. He made his way to about 20 to 30 feet from the stage and was shouting ‘‘Donald!’’ while waving his note around to try to catch his attention.

‘‘Everyone else is waving Trump signs, and I’m waving this white letter,’’ Cary, 63, said. He said that, coupled with the fact that he was wearing sunglasses during an evening rally to deal with his sensitivity to light, may have been what set people off.

Cary said a security official noticed he appeared to be a supporter but said he should not have disrupted the rally.

‘‘He asked me, ‘What happened? You have on a GOP badge,’ ‘‘ Cary said. ‘‘I said, ‘I’m yelling at Donald, and he thinks I’m a protester.’ ‘‘

Days later, Donald Trump’s campaign manager Kellyanne Conway forcefully disavowed a supporter as ‘‘deplorable’’ for chanting ‘‘Jew-S-A!’’ at a weekend rally, the latest incident of anti-Semitic rhetoric used by some of the GOP nominee’s backers, according to two reporters.

‘‘[The man’s] conduct is completely unacceptable and does not reflect our campaign or our candidate. Wow,’’ Conway said during an interview on CNN’s ‘‘State of the Union.’’ ‘‘That man’s conduct was deplorable. And had I been there, I would have asked security to remove him immediately.’’

The Saturday afternoon incident in Phoenix was captured on video that showed a man confronting reporters at the rally with shouts and a three-fingered hand gesture that resembled hate symbols flagged by the Anti-Defamation League.

‘‘You’re going down! You’re the enemy!’’ the man yelled. As the rest of the crowd broke into a chant of ‘‘USA! USA!,’’ the man repeatedly chanted, ‘‘Jew-S-A! Jew-S-A!’’

If Pit says he is not voting for Hillary, then he is not voting for Hillary His honesty should never be in question. Your 110 percent wrong on this one 40.

OK I read that one wrong, and I can't delete it now. I thought you were calling Pit a liar. My bad 40

Coffee man, Coffee!

I love how congress already knows trump isn't gonna win, so they're already saying no to Clinton on the Supreme Court issue before Election Day even happens.

That shows so much faith in their republican nominee lol.

Damn, he sounds salty


Santorum calls out Kasich over GOP pledge


http://www.cnn.com/2016/11/01/politics/rick-santorum-john-kasich-pledge/?ref=yfp

(CNN)Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum berated several fellow Republicans Tuesday, including Ohio Gov. John Kasich, for failing to throw their support behind Donald Trump.

Kasich -- a primary opponent of Trump's -- wrote 2008 GOP nominee John McCain's name at the top of his ballot. Meanwhile, House Speaker Paul Ryan, who has already followed through on his pledge to cast his vote for Trump, failed to mention the candidate by name during a Fox News interview Tuesday, instead referring to Trump only as "our nominee."
"I'm not happy with either John Kasich or Paul Ryan, particularly John Kasich," Santorum told CNN's Brooke Baldwin.
RELATED: Early voting: Controversy versus convenience
Santorum, a GOP presidential candidate in 2012 and 2016, continued to call out Kasich, rebuking him for his public disdain for the Republican presidential candidate.
"If you're watching, John, you signed a pledge," he said. "You signed a pledge saying that you would support the Republican nominee for president. You signed a pledge in order to get on the ballot in South Carolina. You promised that you would follow through with that. You knew Donald Trump had a chance because he was leading in the polls at the time to be our nominee and you signed it anyway."
"You can't say a man who's not going to keep his word is someone that, frankly, should be paid attention to when it comes to how he's going to vote. John, you are better than that," he continued.

A TargetSmart/William & Mary poll to be released Wednesday, but which was shared early with MSNBC

You can choose other sources if you like.

But Florida is a key battleground ground state.

And it ain't looking good for him there. He needs the majority of swing states if he wants to win this election.

Good luck with that.

I will be making my FINAL PREDICTION of this political season soon and then you will know who the next President will be. Until then, continue the dreaming.

Lol, how many bandwagons you jumping on?

I bet you had a GS warriors jersey on when they was up 3-1.

So much for the black vote. Either they are too lazy for early voting or they just dont care.

And.............?

The Trump campaign quickly denounced the endorsement.

http://www.cnn.com/2016/11/01/politics/donald-trump-kkk-crusader-support/index.html


Here's a little fact: NO campaign can control who supports/endorses them.


Washington (CNN)The official newspaper of the Ku Klux Klan expressed its support for Republican nominee Donald Trump on the front page of its current issue, a move the Trump campaign quickly denounced.
The front page of "The Crusader" had a banner that said "Make America Great Again" with an article dedicated to a defense of Trump's campaign slogan.

Trump's campaign quickly denounced the support from the newspaper, calling the publication "repulsive."
Can Trump turn Iowa red?
"Mr. Trump and the campaign denounces hate in any form. This publication is repulsive and their views do not represent the tens of millions of Americans who are uniting behind our campaign," the Trump campaign said in a statement to CNN.
Pastor Thomas Robb, who wrote the article, told The Washington Post that the paper wasn't officially endorsing Trump, but was instead expressing its support for his candidacy.
"Make America Great Again!' It is a slogan that has been repeatedly used by Donald Trump in his campaign for the presidency," Robb wrote. "You can see it on the shirts, buttons, posters and ball caps such as the one being worn here by Trump speaking at a recent rally ... But can it happen? Can America really be great again? This is what we will soon find out!"
Top GOP official: McMullin's response to white nationalist-sponsored robocall is 'almost as reprehensible'
He continued: "While Trump wants to make America great again, we have to ask ourselves, 'What made America great in the first place?' The short answer to that is simple: America was great not because of what our forefathers did -- but because of who our forefathers were. America was founded as a White Christian Republic. And as a White Christian Republic it became great."
The Trump campaign recently distanced itself from a white nationalist supporter pushing an automated call in Utah slandering a third-party threat in the state, Evan McMullin.
But the Trump campaign condemnations in recent days have come far more quickly than in the past, including when Trump repeatedly demurred to CNN's Jake Tapper about David Duke's support, before finally condemning him.

And?

It doesn't change the fact that they feel empowered with him running. Of course he's suppose to denounce them.

The alt right is a big portion of his voting block.

Who cares if the alt right votes for him. They always vote for the consevative candidate. Duh.

A lot of people care. Basically, the majority.

Which I guess you're right. Who cares, he won't be winning.

Nobody cares. Who did you honestly think they would vote for? Hilary. Come on, I know you have more than half a brain.

In other news, birds fly, fish swim, and monkeys live in the jungle.

Voter enthusiasm is a real thing. It's a problem if they feel empowered. This is Sarah Palin resurgence of the tea party stuff we're talking about.

Voting for and fervently supporting because he supports their racist ideals are two different things.

Not really, its all the same.

Oh. Proceed.

Geesh.

If Trump loses Florida, this will be an azz beating. He HAS to win Florida.
