Trump turns bitter
« on: October 12, 2016, 09:26:17 pm »
The Republican nominee, sinking in the polls, lashes out at the dishonest media, a partisan debate commission, and a GOP establishment out to get him.

A bitter Donald Trump on Wednesday ratcheted up his accusations about a rigged system designed to coronate Hillary Clinton, blaming a corrupt Democratic nominee, a dishonest media, a partisan debate commission, an unjust justice system, and a Republican establishment that’s in on it all.

Trump also offered a glimpse into his potential administration, a reign that would jail Clinton and the law firm that helped delete emails from her private server, and would include an investigation into the Justice Department investigation that ultimately cleared her of criminal wrongdoing.

But Trump signaled that such things are unlikely to happen — not because that’s now how the federal government operates — but because the political establishment is working to elect Clinton over him.

“Look, we’re in a rigged system, folks. This is a rigged, rigged system,” Trump said Wednesday during an afternoon rally in Ocala, Florida.

The real estate mogul lamented Republicans and Democrats in Congress for not doing enough. He recommended that the next Congress pass a bill to address Clinton’s email scandal. Simply put, he added, he’s embarrassed that Congress has allowed Clinton to run for president after committing “crime at the highest level.”

If one wants to say the Mainstream Media is not rigged in favor of Demon Rats, one must have their heads in the sand.

You do understand that a presidential candidate is not supposed to sound like his  most partisan supporters right?

Good. I hope he goes full bore. The more people he drives to third party voting, the better.

Highly unlikely, but it's a nice thought.  Even IF the House has to decide this election ... my hunch is they would still elect Hillary.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Oh I'm under no delusion that she won't be prez. I wrote this election off when Trump was nominated. My only hope is that enough third parties get votes so next time the fence sitters will be more apt to go that route.

He's reminded me of Queeg for months.  But Queeg was a better man than trump.  Instead of steel marbles, Trump uses tweets.

In his little hands, of course.
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

If no one want to say that all of Donny's troubles are self inflicted and not the sole result of the MSM, one must be named TomSea.

And what he's trying to do now is lay the groundwork for blaming everyone but himself for his loss.

Expect his followers to do the same here shortly.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

Nobody is saying that.  Trump is his own worst enemy, and everything being used against him is his own voluntarily produced work product.

I would certainly not say that, considering we're pretty much screwed either way.

I can only guess you won't have to pay for the consequences.

After Trump won the nomination I figured the Pubs would lose, but it sure didn't make me happy. During the last 8 years under the reign of obama I've had to replace all but a few of my employees with contractors. My healthcare was terminated and the replacement for it was twice as expensive. I began moving a part of my business out of the country and with a hillary reign I will have to move more of it. I find nothing to be happy about this mess and I blame the Trump supporters who wouldn't listen to their fellow Pubs.

He's just joking.  He will feel it right along with the rest of us.  He has the gift of humor which we are all going to need more of as things play out, no matter who wins.

I get it, but sometimes I just want to vent my frustration.
