American Politics

I agree on all counts apart from the wall.

No, I don't particularly want a fence round my house. I've got a brick wall about two foot high though. And yes of course I lock my day.

No, I don't live in that kind of area, it wouldn't happen.

Yeah, I didn't think I did either.

To me the issue of the email server is all I need. Her intent of setting up a private server was to bypass any freedom of information act inquires. That on its own makes me not trust her. She is an employee of the government, in other words she works for us. What the hell gives her the right to try and hide what she does from us?

She also lied to our face about a YouTube video being the cause of the Benghazi attacks.

Then there is the issue of selling out an American uranium mine to the Russians.


Plain and simple I do not trust her.


I'm not a fan of Trump either. I think what appeals to me most is the fact that he isn't a career politician. Those assholes are the ones who got us in this mess. If the Dems and Republicans both hate him then he can't be all bad. If he can go in there and upset the Washington cartel I'm fine with it.

The biggest issue for me is the Supreme Court Justices. It's a gamble but I feel that Trump is far more likely to put Constitutional Justices on the court than Clinton is.

Plus I really don't want to hear that voice of hers for 4 to 8 years.

Seriously. Who wants to hear this shit for 4 to 8 years?

This I cannot understand. It's this unconditional hatred of politicians that somehow now dominates the political scene these days. "All they want to do is fuck us over", "they're only in it for themselves". Particularly with America, there's this overwhelming idea that the establishment is conspiring against you, that the country is constantly in a state of irredeemable corruption. Maybe it is corrupt, maybe some are in it for themselves, but no one stops to consider that maybe there's some politicians who want to do good. And even if they are only in it for themselves, they at least know what they're doing. They're able to adequately manage situations because they know what to do, they can tactfully hold negotiations. Trump's a firebrand who is all mouth and no brain. He isn't experienced with politics. He is, however experienced with business, but not in a good way, he is nowhere near an ethical businessman. His conduct in business legal affairs is far from ethical, it shows he doesn't give a fuck about the little man as much as you might think politicians don't as well. He doesn't really care about the people, he manipulates people to get his way and push his crazy ideas, which are borne from his practically constant "successes" in life. It looks like he's always been so "successful" in life, he's always come out on top, he's great at making money, and there's this mentality of "why can't Donald J. Trump do politics too?" A sort of "I might as well give it a go, I'm good at other stuff so why not?" because Donald J. Trump has always done well for himself, he thinks he can apply that to politics. That thinking gets you nowhere. It's not considered, it's not tactful, it's not intelligent. It's him thinking that because he's successful with everything else in his life, he might as well give politics a whirl "'cos why fucking not?"

It's better than Trump's unguided waffling. He's like an easily distracted hyperactive child. "I'm shouting about Mexicans!" "Now I'm gonna talk about that baby in the audience down there". "Okay, back to the, what was it? Oh yeah, the Muslims, that was it". "Oh, look at that man's red hat, let's talk about that". It's just spontaneous crap, it's like the clickbait title of political dialogue.

Have you listened to a whole Trump speech? I found the one he gave yesterday was actually fairly well delivered and on point.
