most people who use the 'both sides are terrible' rhetoric are liberal democrats who think it is more persuasive to pretend to independent while pushing liberal talking points.

Aaaaand more inaccurate generalizations. How can you fail to understand that the way you approach a political discussion is problematic? You are not approaching this with any sort of attempt to understand why someone has an issue with Trump. Instead, you see your view that Hillary is bad (or insert whatever escalation of that word that you would use to describe her) as absolute and require nothing from Trump EXCEPT that he is not Hillary. Meanwhile, you condemn others for taking the exact same approach from the opposite side where they see Trump's racism, immaturity, and reluctance to give real answers (amongst other things) as disqualifying him to the point that Hillary's only requirement to receive their vote is to not be Trump.

For God sake. Both sides are digging holes so fast their own people are seriously inquiring as to whether it is possible to replace them. They ARE terrible.

Reading the latest FBI disclosures, along with emails establishing ongoing leaks from DOJ to the Clinton Campaign, Hillary Clinton is in a more perilous predicament now than Nixon was in 1973 as Watergate began to heat up. Her election will be a detriment to the country in ways we've not seen since Nixon had to step down. It is going to be terrible.



Considering how little respect middle-ground Americans have for either candidate, is the idea of impeachment not almost a selling point? Some might see that possibility to elect one of these two while expecting that person not to serve very long in office as a positive. I am certainly not advocating for a voter to play that gambit, but I can see some people seeing it as the best option in a terribad situation.

I parsed them down into simple points for Tillman. He's not real quick on the uptake.

I know you believe differently and that's fine, you're an educated person who thinks for himself.

However, at this point, the "Alt-right-get-Hillary people" have worked hard to earn a "boy who cried wolf" label with regards to the Hillary prosecution. I challenge them to produce their smoking gun evidence of nefarious Hillary and every time I look into it and try to decide for myself, it's obvious their smoking gun is nothing more than circumstantial, something taken way out of context, or something I wouldn't consider a disqualifying/criminal event.

It's why many people are fed up with the Alt-right's weak accusations and half truths, mostly produced and spread by the conservative radio talk culture (i.e. the poliboard).

I guess we won't know until we get a special prosecutor

And if that special prosecutor clears her of all charges, nothing will change in the minds of anti-Hillary crowd.

I think I have posted on there maybe 3 times since I joined tRant, and have a similar feeling. Should probably rename the Board to "Abandon all hope, ye who enter here"

I care man, you may be cray cray, you may be sane in an insane world, who really knows, but keep on trucking man.

Open discussion always advances everybody while promoting fear and blame seems to push us back towards the stone age.

Forget it man, he is either dumb as a post or just trolling for the sake of trolling. Who knows but best not to engage him and just ignore his posts.

you keep saying Trump is a racist with no evidence, and there are tons of black people supporting him. you just want to scare black people so they are not open to voting for him. that is basicaly racism. you want to keep black people on the democrat plantation.

Hillary described blacks and latinos as 'underachievers' in the wikileaks dump, and she has also described young black men as 'super predators' in the pas.t she's said racist things about Jews.

note every liberal uses this type of rhetoric, pretend to be republican or moderate but then dive right into standard democrat talking points about how racist GOP is


The GOP isn't racist but some posters on the politics board sure are, which was my point. They are the type of "conservatives" who make the GOP a easy target for the media.

Well, you could read 13 unquestionably racist comments and actions from Trump thanks to Huffington Post. Now, I'm sure you'll just attack the source instead of addressing any of the actual situations, but I can't FORCE you to educate yourself. His bigotry is not just about race either. There are plenty of other examples of him making sexist or religiously divisive comments.

And ya know what, Hillary may well be the worst racist and bigot on the planet. She at least has the tact to keep her hate speech private.
