^^ sure. Except it isn't about me, it is about the policies that are best for the country. Are you going to tell us that the policies and agreements that have led to 94 million Americans out of work, $20 trillion in debt, tens of millions of illegals, and unfunded future liabilities approaching $100 trillion are the proper way to go? And on top of that, elect the most corrupt politician in history to continue with more of the same? Do you ever focus on the issues instead of the messengers?

You're missing the point. The point of the satirical article is that you assume that, by golly, you're the one who sees the picture fully, and that those who disagree with any element of it are wrong in those elements, all the while ignoring that your perspective on how to fix the problem is largely the result of what the Germans call "sitz im leben" ... your life situation, including the elements of life that have brought you to this point, and many of which were outside your control.

Obviously you are missing the point. I just listed several pieces of terrible economic data, almost insurmountable numbers, and yet you too are focusing on the messenger. No wonder we cannot discuss policy and platforms that might affect the data in the future.

I'm not discussing the messenger. I'm discussing the messenger's view and the root of it. That exists regardless of who holds it. Therefore, it is not a discussion of the messenger itself.

So again, you're missing the point if you think this is purely about the person holding the views and not the events, experiences, etc. that have shaped the views that happen to be held.

It is apparently not a given, because you seem to refuse to acknowledge it.

I mean, that's mostly common knowledge at this point. It's been fairly well-circulated that people have been making Clinton out to be more supported than she is. Even at the DNC.

InfoWars or not, this sort of thing has been circulating for awhile. However, I don't know whether or not "the media" did it.

I saw the clip. Death threat is a stretch, but you'd have to be a real dumbass to not understand what he insinuated. Just another stupid comment from the Donald that will lead to him being clownstomped in November.

Its comical that some of the people on here who i wont put on blast that use infowars as a actual source of information and media. Alex Jones is a whacky bat! haha no offense but i would trust him more than i could toss him and that is being modest. If you want to lost all credibility with me than you should you can keep using alex jones as a reliable source for information cause i for one am not a fan of his!

I get that he wasn't serious and the dark humor. It was in jest. It still doesn't make it any less of a dumbass comment.

Of course he wasn't.

But of course a person running for President of the United States doesn't make comments like that.

What did he mean then? He talked hypothetically that if she were in office she would be selecting members of the Supreme Court. As if she'd already won, so he wasn't calling on 2A people for votes. I interpreted it as him suggesting they take it in their hands and do as they see fit.

You're correct though, just a stupid comment.
