    I wouldn't call this nothing: http://www.counterpunch.org/2016/03/...llarys-emails/

    The significance of this, however, is probably not that great to the average voter. The average voter doesn't give a shit about this kind of stuff. They see a vaguely Muslim-sounding country and couldn't care less if it gets blown up.

    Yes, I've read that he filed bankruptcy 4 times, so he didn't have to pay creditors and absconded with whatever he could that was left.

    Because immigration is an expensive and time-consuming process so they don't do it legally.

    I mean, sure, legal immigration is the obvious answer, but the US system is so fucked up that it's not as simple as just saying "immigrate legally".

    Well, it is if there's a massive wall there (and they actually fine people properly for employing illegal immigrants). Just sayin

    They want GOOD change. Change that makes sense. If they can't get that, then it's far more sensible to change nothing (if you assume that Hillary Clinton would "change nothing") than it is to just go out and indiscriminately break everything. (I.e, Trump's current campaign goals.)
    That change is never going to come if people keep supporting the establishment though. The young democrats have spoken and have shown they weren't as serious about that revolution as they implied.

    What Im advocating for is for NYC to become its own state. The rest of the entire state isnt having their needs represented because NYC is full of people that only care about city values. People in Buffalo have totally different lifestyles and needs, and they have no say. Also Im not complaining that people get to vote. Im complaining that because a high concentration of people get to decide what happens to other people 400 miles away, and it isnt right. It would be like Spain getting to decide how Poland is run

    You act like the rest of the state is just a handful of farmers owning 3500 acres of land. There are a lot of bigger cities like Buffalo that are diametrically opposed to NYC and pay enough taxes to support themselves

    Why support a "revolution" if that revolution doesn't support what you support?

    Most "young democrats" don't support the afformentioned watch lists, decrease in freedom of speech, anti-equal rights, pro-torture and insane scapegoating building projects espoused by Trump. So why would they vote for him?

    His bankrupted businesses are exactly why you don't want him as prez. If he'd invested all of the money his daddy gave him instead of running his own businesses, he'd have more money than he does now.
    Show me what investments... If I had put all my money into google I would be rich. If I invested in something that went broke I would have nothing. He has never gone personally bankrupt he simply used the declaration to drop dead end businesses...

    Do you just dislike that man? That is ok you know.

    I'm not surprised about that. Manhattan is the most liberal and hipster part of New York.

    "Trump’s foreign policy advisor thinks Turkey is conspiring with Native Americans to build nukes"

    Joseph Schmitz, an attorney and former Pentagon inspector general, was tapped as one of Trump’s five foreign policy advisors last month, along with a bewildering mix of conspiracy theorists and “third-rate people.”

    Schmitz served as co-counsel in a lawsuit filed last year on behalf of Montana State Senator Bob Keenan (R-Bigfork) and former state Senator Verdell Jackson (R-Kalispell) asking a court to block the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes from taking over management of the former Kerr Dam, reported the Institute for Research and Education on Human Rights.

    The dam, which was built in the 1930s on tribal land, was renamed the Seli’š Ksanka Qlispe’ dam when the tribally owned Energy Keepers, Inc., paid nearly $18.3 million to NorthWestern Energy to acquire it.

    That’s when things got weird.

    Schmitz, who’s an “insider” with the right-wing Newsmax website and senior fellow at the virulently anti-Islam Center for Security Policy, and fellow co-counsel Lawrence Kogan filed a lawsuit seeking to block the transfer — which they argued posed a national security threat from Turkey.

    The attorneys claimed the dam transfer would allow the Turkish government and terrorists to obtain nuclear materials, although they were unable to provide any factual evidence of their claims.

    Not a joke (at least, not anymore than Trump's entire campaign, which is indeed a vast joke, of Strangelovian proportions).
    "In today’s America, conservatives who actually want to conserve are as rare as liberals who actually want to liberate. The once-significant language of an earlier era has had the meaning sucked right out of it, the better to serve as camouflage for a kleptocratic feeding frenzy in which both establishment parties participate with equal abandon" (Taking a break from the criminal, incompetent liars at the NSA, to bring you the above political observation, from The Archdruid Report.)

    Well that's quite interesting. I'm not surprised by mongoloids like this though. It tells you a lot that they got anywhere near a bar exam, courthouse, the Pentagon or presidential campaign.

    Did I say something wrong? You said exactly opposite of what I was implying.
