Trollmander-in-Chief 2.0: The Return

Discussion in 'monkeyCage' started by bfun, Jan 30, 2016.

  1. Wall to wall coverage worked out well for Clinton and Trump in the primaries. Negative or not. And there is quite a bit of fact coming out about the email server and foundation now. Stuff everyone suspected but now with some insight into 'politics as usual'.

    She likely would've been unelectable relative to a normal election. But we have no options against an opponent like this.

     
  2. Such as?

    The FBI already investigated the email server for Clinton and came up with a small amount of classified info that the State Department itself failed to label properly. That's it. Compare that to Colin Powell, who was never investigated by the FBI despite the fact that he trashed 100% of his private server emails and refused to allow access to his hardware.

    And the Foundation? It has one of the highest ratings possible according to 3rd party watchdog groups. They've never found any quid pro quo per donors either. Compare that to Trump, who's own foundation wasn't even legally licensed in New York and was already proven to be used by Trump as a personal slush fund.

    I'm in no way comparing Hillary to Trump. There is no comparison there as far as who is more fit to be president.... but in an overall sense it's fucking depressing that these 2 were the choices. Which itself may have been engineered by media propaganda.

    For the FBI investigation, I think everybody knew, or should've known, she was not going to be indicted. It was a waste of money for political theater. What's coming out is Comey agreed to upfront deals that crippled the investigation from the start. The DOJ had leaks about the investigation and 'upcoming' events with Hillary's people. They were barely acquaintances with Loretta Lynch, but Bill discussed his family and grand kids for 40 minutes on a plane supposedly. Stuff everybody suspected, but now with more details for the gaps. But it's basically politics as usual.

    Chelsea was billing her for-profit personnel to the foundation. Friends of Bill (FOB) were ID'd for recovery contracts in Haiti.

    *None of it would hold up in court, but the improprieties are there. Like I said, they seem to constantly tread a gray area.
     
  4. So, the twittersphere is calling shenanigans on the wild story of Summer Zervos. But I actually find her story most credible. It goes something like this:

    Trump tries to dry hump her. Just stops. Buys her a sandwich and leaves. Calls her the next morning to play golf.

    LOL! From everything I've seen, that is 100% irrefutable Donald Trump trolling.

    Trump hasn't been caught with a dead girl or a live boy, so I don't think this sex scandal will hurt him much with his followers.

    Many Trumpers are misogynistic MRA/PUA types, so the way he treats women like disposable sex objects may actually make him even more appealing to them.
     
  6. Crippled the investigation? From finding what? The GOP's own multiple year investigation of Benghazi exonerated Clinton. So there's nothing about Benghazi to find. What's left? Classified info? Comey admitted in testimony to Congress that what little classified info existed in the emails has been mislabeled by the State Department and could realistically be missed by anyone reviewing them.

    Politics "as usual" would be more like Colin Powell, who basically just flipped everyone off regarding his private email server use and nobody cared.
     
  7. Colin Powell is a well known shit head... equating HC to him isn't a win. But even he had the decency to fade away after bankrupting the country with neo-con bullshit. He didn't try to run for president!

    I think they all tried to get around FOIA, but court has ruled private email still applies in Powell, Rice, and Clinton's use case.
     
  8. Condoleezza Rice, Rick Perry, and Jeb Bush, are a few other politicians we know about that used private email. I bet there have been plenty more.
     
  9. lol at the latest backfire.

     
  10. Trump is looking for investors for Trump TV.

  11. Wow. Good call again. Leave it to Drumpf to start a TV network at the bottom of their popularity.
     
  12. There's always the Kremlin.

    Mr.President! Can you take a bullet for the soon to be President of the United States of America?! You play as Dick “Rock-Hard” Johnson a bulletproof man, the best bodyguard money can buy. He is sworn to protect the most hated presidential candidate of all time Ronald Rump.

    Liberal media has rigged the election and tarnished his glowing public image, now they are trying to end his life. You need to leap, flip, fling, roll, and many other verbs to get in between Rump and certain death. If Rump dies, Who is going to pay for your Netflix sub? How are you going to pay for your lifetime of student loans or over inflated medical bills? Where will you get the money for another dumb physics game? YOU BETTER SAVE THE MAN OR YOU DON'T GET THE MONEY! It is your American duty to protect, serve, and live by the mighty dollar, because money is the only true sign of someone’s worth.
     
  14. Actual Trump quote from the most recent debate...

    "And they want to look tough. They want to look good. He violated the red line in the sand. And he made so many mistakes. That is why we have the great migration. But she wanted to look good for the election. But who is going to get Mosul really? We will take eventually. If you look at what's happening much more tougher it's going to be more deaths than we thought. But the leaders I wanted to get are all wrong is because they're smart. What do we need this for? So Mosul is going to be a wonderful thing and Iran should write us a letter of thank you, just like the other really stupid. The stupidest deal of all time. A deal that's going to give Iran absolutely nuclear weapons."

  16. There is a crazy possibility that if Trump loses and doesn't concede the election would go to the Supreme court like it did with Gore and Bush. However this time a split down party lines could end in a deadlock since we are still missing a Judge.
     
  17. It's going to be a landslide victory for Clinton, with her possibly winning even in states like Arizona where Democrats never win. The only reason Trump wouldn't concede is because of his massive ego.

    We have officially reached WWF/WWE levels. Trump and Biden want to fist fight each other behind a barn



    Donald J Trump, wrestling villain. LOL
     
  19. lol Russians have infiltrated the FBI. Just when I thought the election was getting boring....
     
  20. Yeah I think the FBI really messed up on this one. It's vital that the American people have total trust in CIA, NSA, and FBI. Those agencies have to be rock solid and above politics. By breaking policy Holder just made millions of Americans suddenly question if the FBI is trying to influence the election.
