POTUS Election thread

[Ironside]

Hillary broke the law keeping (c) emails on her private server. She really messed up when she lied to everyone about it and as time has gone on more and more internal corruption has been brought to light. Watch her trial videos or when they are questioning lynch or comey. They all beat around direct questions. "Is it illegal to go 65 in a 55? Lynch: well you'd have to ask the highway patrolman." "Is it legal or illegal to provide an unauthorized person access to confidential material? Lynch: There may be statutes for that buuuuuttt..."

The problem is that she did the same thing as the previous government did (Bush and Cheney) with Obama knowing about it. Thus, you'll end up either prosecuting plenty of top politicians or you don't push too hard here despite knowing that there's some grey zone parts. The evidence is that she used the private server for non-classified information and private information, with like a dozen mistakes after you discount the over classification rivalry. Not enough to go deeper.

The whole thing was a farce. Watch Clinton's face when she is getting questioned. She doesn't care, she looks annoyed and bored about being there, she looks like someone who is just going through the motions but knew the outcome before it happened.

Yes? A political pre-trial of that caliber is going to be hinting about the outcome long before it's done, as the political impact is going to be much larger than any punishment (we're talking about less than 2 year probation and a 100,000 fine).

But Hillary has done over night 180's several times already. Pro Iraq against Iraq, against gay marriage for gay marriage, this list goes on. At least Trump is telling us what he wants to do. I also believe there are enough people in this country that if Trump tried to gear us for Nuclear war or WW3 then we would see a new assassinated president. If Hillary on the other hand did her back room dealing I see our country being sold down the river before anyone even knows whats going on.

In a time span of decades. I mean Iraq, seriously? You'll never allowed to claim that you did a bad call ever? That's not really doing 180. She is a political pragmatist, who'll probably won't state her own opinion on something if she knows its quite unpopular at the time and can change her mind. But that also means that you know she won't push for some really unpopular stuff.

Also, if I'm a master planner with 40 years of hidden agenda and are owning most of the political structure of the country, why am I running for president in the first place? I already own the country.

Trump is going to attack some muslim country, probably just bomb it, to avoid doing Iraq II. He's a bully, has called the US army weak and wants to make America strong and respected (read feared, because he'll never get respect). He's toying with the idea of trade wars and protectionism, which will do havoc to the US economy. He's going to be doing some nice "wink" stuff when some Trumpist does a racist crime.
He's petty, so he's going to use his position to go after people/countries who has hurt him.
He'll probably stamp BLM as terrorists, like he's already doing with muslims , which is going to be hell (the core of BLM is peaceful and has mostly reasonable demands), as its how to signal that a peaceful solution is impossible...
That Russia thing is suspiciously good at sticking on him. Total denial doesn't work well when you have a record.

Have you watched her trials? If you havent just go watch them and stop reading biased news. Go directly to the source and actually come to your own conclusion rather than using propagandic pulp to give you a "clear" view on things. You honestly cannot trust anything written by a reporter. Integrity is a thing that died with the rise of Pulitzer and Hearst.

That gives an interesting question. How are you getting your news? I mean, you did consider Hillary to be a hidden evil long before the emails didn't you? Through some vague information osmosis without any big smoking guns...
