Pence's gay counseling comment got way overblown by the left-wing media. That being said, Mike Pence is a religious nutjob with a vendetta against gays. But to be fair, he's the Governor of Indiana...you kinda have to have those qualities.

I'm not a Trump guy, but this media bashing on Trump's "Russia" comments are laughable. How much money did they receive by the Clinton Foundation to take a CLEARLY sarcastic, joking comment on Russia and these emails and turn it into a serious "espionage" accusation? lol I mean come on

Bill Clinton fell asleep during Hillary's speech last night because she is a very boring speaker. Overall, the Dem convention had a lot more drama than the RNC, which I am surprised about. Way more boos and empty seats at DNC, and protests/ arrests.

HC has spent over $100 million in the last month on attack adds, Trump hasnt really done anything. DT has something up his sleeve.

He has about a 40% approval rating in Indiana, so even his own state doesn't like his insane anti-gay crusade.SportsAndLady;1804945 wrote:Pence's gay counseling comment got way overblown by the left-wing media.

But Trump will probably raise 1/4th what Hillary will....and somehow I don't think he's reaching deep into his pocket to fund his campaign (and not just because I don't he's worth anywhere near $10B).Spock;1804950 wrote:HC has spent over $100 million in the last month on attack adds, Trump hasnt really done anything.

Trump loses a close election in which Hillary outspends him 4-to-1 and he'll happily declare victory and privately laugh how he really didn't even want to be POTUS.

lol exactly. Pure deflection. Also Hillary shouldn't be concerned if Russia has those emails. They were about wedding planning and yoga after all.SportsAndLady;1804947 wrote:I'm not a Trump guy, but this media bashing on Trump's "Russia" comments are laughable.

"The most qualified person to ever run for President of the US" has to hire from Craigslist to fill seats lol!
She might have the job listings on her resume, but does that really mean she's qualified? Does job performance has anything to do with it?
Unfortunately, yes. Too many people want the novelty of the first woman POTUS, too many people are deeply entrenched into the democrat ideology and too many people dislike Trump.
Add all of that up and ... yeah...

Probably not true, but it wouldn't shock me. People do get paid to protest and the convention had a lot of empty seats that they were trying to hide.Automatik;1804959 wrote:You actually believe that? I recall something similar going on during the RNC.

Q2 GDP just came out ......another anemic report of just 1.2%. The assault on the economy continues unabated by the radical regime in the WH, and Hillary will do more of the same. In fact she would raise taxes that will further damage the economy and The People (see link below). Additionally the dems gutted their platform to eliminate the planks they had on energy policy just 4 years ago; now it is all-in on wind and solar, and to hell with everything else, including fracking which has literally lowered oil/nat gas costs by half. There is not one redeeming quality about her or the radical left turn that the dem party has chosen. Hard to believe.

Trump is going to clean house in the debates. I don't know how much sway debates at this point will have in the GE but I can't see how Hillary is going to be competitive.Spock;1804950 wrote:HC has spent over $100 million in the last month on attack adds, Trump hasnt really done anything.

If there's one thing I can praise Trump on, it's his ability to drag his opponent in the mud and beat the heck out of them. Only 3 debates though and it wouldn't surprise me at all if HRC cancels at least one of them.

Last time I checked, Trump has barely spent any of his own money and the money he has put into the campaign is in the form of a loan.gut;1804953 wrote:But Trump will probably raise 1/4th what Hillary will....and somehow I don't think he's reaching deep into his pocket to fund his campaign (and not just because I don't he's worth anywhere near $10B).

If you look at cost per vote, Trump will break and hold the record on this forever.

Guy knows how to get the press. Most candidates don't like to do many interviews or pressers because their message has to be so carefully refined and controlled. Trump loves it, doesn't worry about what he says or how he's perceived....and he gets all the invites he wants because it's good for ratings.

But watch what will happen. Trump could be neck-and-neck in the polls and get slaughtered on election night because his ground game and "get out the vote" is almost non-existent.
I think that is what makes you question just how much Trump really wants to be POTUS.

My fear is the record amount of fraud that will occur in Dade county, Broward county, Cuyahoga county, and Franklin county in order to steal Ohio and Florida for Hillary to win the election.

Political acumen doesn't win elections. Marketing wins elections.
