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.

Thiel, Barrack, and Ivanka did very impressive jobs in humanizing and stating the case for Donald.

Trump himself did well overall, but I still have my concerns. Need some time to process them still.

What's the big deal? He released it.

After it was leaked since it was already out there.

Don't think this changes anything for me. Speeches are just words. Doesn't change his character.

True, but that is definitely an indication that there is some kind of framework out there that when forced into, Trump will follow. His choice of words was very nicely diverse, rarely went off-script, which was no doubt because he was FORCED to go that way.

What about the story about the note to the kid? Shows a different side we have not heard about. Also how about his kids? How does that reflect on the person?

If character is what matters, then there are no good choices.

But while we would have loved to have someone we can look up to for character, that is simply not on the table now.

Look up thread as to what's at issue.

Thiel did not look comfortable but did a good job. Barrack seemed 100% the real deal. Ivanka knocked it out of the park and seemed like she was doing this forever. She did Jews proud.

I actually don't think I've EVER been to OH (maybe travelled once through to a Chasuna in MI many years ago, but I don't think that counts).

There is a 3rd candidate, you know.

Whose chances of being elected POTUS are even lower than the chances that my vote would make any difference in this election.

You can just escape to:
חומש
תניא
גמרא
לקו״ת
לקו״ש
סה״מ מלוקט
בשורת הגאולה
Etc etc
You won't find one word of politics there.

Guess you missed what you wrote, unless you meant something else

Speeches are just words. Doesn't change his character.

So if I'm understanding correctly, words don't change his character unless he's saying something bad?

Don't see how a tailored speech has any effect on your decision
What about the story about the note to the kid? Shows a different side we have not heard about. Also how about his kids? How does that reflect on the person?
His kids are by far his most redeeming factor though sometimes kids come out great in spite of a parent
Guess you missed what you wrote, unless you meant something else

So if I'm understanding correctly, words don't change his character unless he's saying something bad?
Its not the word its how he treats other people
