Topic Wiki

Thread summary:

Trump walks in a room.

1. Moshe123 shoots at him because he is pure evil, 2. ilherman+hachover jump in front of the bullets because Trump is our savior. 3. aygart tackles Moshe123 because Trump is better than HRC, 4. but Baruch can't stand Trump so he tells aygart he's crazy and Trump is a madman. 5. ExGingi would like to point out that who cares what he is, all that matters is the supreme court nominations. 6. Dan and others aren't really sure how this makes them feel plus they don't really want to drink poison. 7. Spoiler alert: Moshe123's gun was empty, it was just a blank.

And Freddie is in the back of the room just cooking his cholent. Until he announces that there are TWO menu choices, Pareve Cholent or Vegetable Lasagna. While etech0 figured out that they are both poisoned.


Repeat x100.

And then Hilary walks into the room with the most confidence a candidate has had in recent history. She is so confident that she eats both the Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna. Everyone is the room is aghast, they don't know how this happened, could it be Comey is behind this poisoning or was it that her Obamacare premiums were to high to get her the help she needed.

Everyone stared as she choked and was cast into oblivion on November, 8, 2016 the last day she was heard from in the public eye.

Moshe123, ilherman, hachover, Baruch, ExGingi, Dan, Freddie, etech0, and the rest of America are in total shock and hope that so long as Trump doesn't eat any Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna and stays true to his supreme court nominees this may be the greatest thing to happen since the CSR and GC's.

But remember this may be the beginning of the end...

P.S. Thanks to cognitive dissonance aygart, Michael Moore, and Scott Adams knew the whole time that Trump could win, unfortunately for JTZ he may be off DDF for the next 4 years due to his mandatory 3 times daily consumption of CROW!

As things turns out, the most prescient view on this election was that of Michael Moore! Though Scott Adams is also claiming a high view level of prescience.

The pollsters finally caught up with DDF.

The poll also shows that neither candidate is wildly popular among respondents. According to the poll, 53% of Trump supporters say their vote is more against Clinton than for Trump, while 46% of Clinton supporters say their vote is more against Trump than for Clinton.

Apparently yesterday was a big Chidush with DJT actually apologizing for things he said.

Just out of curiosity, did HRC ever publicly apologize or regret anything she said or did? If yes, what was it?
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Correct.

I googled it and found some of them.

The Chiddush is that anyone would call politicians "normal humans". ;)

In my dictionary both "politician" and "journalist" are synonymous with "liar".

Quote
State Senator Mike Doherty sent me an amusing message after I noted that Hillary Clinton is a dangerous person because of her stated desire to confront Russia militarily in Syria:
"Hillary Clinton was against the Cambodian incursion during the Vietnam War but now wants to enter Syria and shoot down Russian planes? Isn't that a little crazy?
More than a little crazy, I'd say.
Clinton's call for a no-fly zone over Syria would not only risk World War III with Russia; it would also be a great aid to ISIS, which has no air force and would be able to take even more territory in the absence of Russian and Syrian fighter attacks.
Doherty is a West Point grad with a good knowledge of military history. And until I read that message, I never quite realized just how thoroughly confused Clinton is in that regard.
How could you have opposed American intervention in Southeast Asia and now support American intervention in the Mideast?

Interesting how our government equates economic disparity with racial discrimination. Unless the "transit-dependant community" is a protected class.

Some interesting outlier poll results from the LA Times tracking poll


One interesting aspect is how there has been a shift among Hispanics and African-Americans

While I'm also grasping to see things going well for trump, I think this poll is a yachid. Based on what I've seen, most have hillay over trump in the 8-10 point range in general and 80-90 among blacks and hispanics.

as I mentioned, this is an outlier, but your numbers of 8-10 are very outdated. RCP is at 5 boosted by some outdated outliers. The recent ones have been around 2-5.

Donald and Hillary Go Into A Bakery on the Campaign Trail
As soon as they enter the bakery, Hillary steals three pastries and puts them in her pocket.
 
She says to Donald, "See how clever I am?
The owner didn't see anything and I don't even need to lie.”
I will definitely win the election.
 
Donald says to Hillary, "That's the typical dishonesty you have displayed throughout your entire life, trickery and deceit.
I am going to show you an honest way to get the same result."
 
Donald goes to the owner of the bakery and says, "Give me a pastry and I will show you a magic trick."
 
Intrigued, the owner accepts and gives him a pastry.
Trump swallows it and asks for another one.
The owner gives him another one.
Then Donald asks for a third pastry and  eats that,  too.
 
The owner is starting to wonder where the magic trick is and  asks, "What did you do with the pastries?"
 
Trump replies, "Look in Hillary's pocket"..
