The media is looking more and more desperate everyday to manufacture controversies to throw at Trump.
How did he insult the Khans specifically? Was it by pointing out that Mrs. Khan didn’t speak?
If your son is a fallen hero, are you allowed to challenge anyone on anything and expect that they won’t respond?
Mr. Khan didn’t seem to specify which of Donald Trump’s proposals he felt was unconstitutional.
In spite of all this, Trump and Hillz are still neck and neck in the polls. Whether this is accurate or if the pollsters are protecting the globalists and Wall Streets chosen candidate, we probably won’t know until election night.

“How did he insult the Khans?” You’re obviously living in the bubble…You see boy, it’s that Drumpf doesn’t know about the constitution and when the Gold Star parents confronted him on it Drumpf doubled down and proved again he doesn’t know, believe in, of follow it as he said Khan doesn’t have the right to speak DUH❗️
On another note… http://www.alternet.org/election-2016/paul-krugman-reveals-real-sinners-behind-trump
He never said in his speech why he thinks Trump doesn’t know the constitution.
I also wonder why the Khans are so pissed at Trump. Trump didn’t vote for the Iraq war. Neither did Bernie. It would seem that Hillary bears more responsibility for their son’s death than any other candidate.
If gold star parents are to be exalted and believed regardless of what they say, then the media should be giving ample coverage to Sean Smith’s mother and Tyrone Woods’ father as well.
I wouldn’t put too much stock in the polling. In actuality, I believe things are further in Trump’s favor than the pollsters are willing to let on. There are a lot of cool tricks pollsters can use to get the results closer to their desired outcome. For instance, keeping “Neither/None of the above” as an option when it helps Hillary’s numbers, but removing it when it helps Trump’s numbers.
Hillary’s swing state tour didn’t seem to have much of a turnout in a few of her stops. She couldn’t even fill a medium sized AME church in Cleveland.
Compare that to the crowds that Trump is bringing in, or would be if fire marshals and mayors weren’t closing the doors before the venues were to capacity.
The ruse can’t go on much longer.
One last thing of note: I really don’t take pleasure at the thought of this but it does appear Hillary may have had some sort of growth removed from her tongue. I won’t speculate but there are pictures out there for anyone interested showing before and after pictures of her open mouth.
Combined with the coughing fits and hesitation to release medical records, Hillary may have a problem convincing the American people that she is healthy enough to serve. That is, if any respectable journalists are actually doing their jobs and digging.
Aside from all of this, I wonder if you are actually excited for Hillary Clinton as the Democratic candidate, Tbone. She is the Wall Street candidate. She will most likely reverse course again and once more support TPP if she is elected.
She is everything Bernie railed against.

Trump wants to ban foreign citizens from Muslim nations that have been infested with terrorists. Which part of the constitution prohibits that?
I did know that many illegal immigrants coming from Mexico are rapists and murderers, and are carrying diseases that had been all but forgotten in the U.S. just as Trump said.
What’s bad for the uniparty is that a lot of Americans know it, too.
It seems to me that Trump is almost trying to lose the election. I don’t know what he was trying to accomplish with his criticism of the Kahn family. All he had to say in that interview was that he was sorry for the loss of their son and that they should have instead spoken out against the candidate (Hillary) that voted for the war in Iraq in the first place. That would have completely turned the tables and reminded voters about Hillary’s for it, before she was against it stance on the Iraq War.

I’ll laugh at FoxNOTnews(if it exists at that time) and all right-wing extremists on talk radio because they’ll be without anti-Hillary hate material and then watch Drumpf quit and his “bloodbath” to begin because of the “rigged election.” Drumpf says the election will be “rigged” so what will he do if/when he wins? Will he step down since the election was “rigged?” Or, can the election only be “rigged” if Hillary wins?
The irony in that question 😎 You must’ve gotten confused and thought FoxNotNews asked Hillary where she gets her foreign affairs information when she answered…”On Sunday morning talk shows” 😆
And then democrats all jumped on her bandwagon because nobody could be as smart as Hillary since she knows all there is to know from Sunday morning news shows. Now, back to reality…if you switch Hillary for Drumpf and democrats for crazy GOPers you’ll experience reality for once. :chuckle:

Which of Hillary’s policies do you agree with, Tbone?
I can’t think of a single (legal) thing she did well. She even failed at being first lady. In an act of egregious nepotism, her husband immediately assigned her as the head of the healthcare task force, she hired 500 of her closest lawyer friends to work for her on the governement dole, and then she proceeded to ruin the military healthcare system (the only thing she had control over).
Imagine for a moment if a base Commander acted like Clinton did and hired his wife to oversee mission support or something. And then he proceeded to differ funds slated for road repair and moral and recreation over to the spouse’s club or something. This is in essence what Clinton did on a much greater scale, right after taking office.
Why should we watch some cynical old white woman who got so dissed by Barry that she went to work for him? And then got Americans killed. And then made tens or hundreds of Millions off selling American Uranium mining to Putin. And then lied about keeping classified emails on a server in a bathroom.
Trump may be a jerk; but he hasn’t killed Americans yet. And he doesn’t seem likely to do so, either.
You certainly can’t say the North Koreans aren’t ambitious!
North Korean space officials are hard at work on a five-year plan to put more advanced satellites into orbit by 2020, and don’t intend to stop there: They’re also aiming for the moon, and beyond.
In an interview with The Associated Press, a senior official at North Korea’s version of NASA said international sanctions won’t stop the country from launching more satellites by 2020, and that he hopes to see the North Korean flag on the moon within the next 10 years.
You know, considering the technological level of 1969, it’s not entirely inconceivable that the North Koreans might pull it off. After all, North Korean astronauts are pretty much expendable.
Soon, the T-Shirt that says “There are two types of people in the world. Those who use the Metric System, and those that have been to the Moon!” will be obsolete.
Some people might remember an Andy Griffith TV series called Salvage 1, where a salvage yard operator built his own space ship and went to the moon to salvage some of the equipment left there. Maybe Fatty Kim came across it on YouTube?

Sounds like the Trump campaign has a bit of a shiit sandwich to eat on the Melania thing.
What it likely boils down to was working while on a tourist visa which is troubling but certainly isn’t a dealbreaker to me and probably not for most Trump supporters.
Right now they are pushing questions about how she got her green card.
The answer is probably: she applied for one.
I get it. Not everybody can just get a green card easy peasy, but if she had a green card, then she was issued one by the government, followed by a successful application for citizenship.
Or maybe she illegally crossed the border of Slovenia and the U.S.

“A Republican presidential candidate hasn’t won a statewide election in Pennsylvania since 1988 when George H.W. Bush won the Keystone State, but PA has widely been seen as in play for Trump as his populist message appeals to blue-collar workers in the state’s rural areas. And it finally seemed like Pennsylvania was a swing state once again.
But any candidate who wants to win a statewide election in Pennsylvania has to do well in the Philadelphia suburbs. Democrats typically win Philadelphia and Pittsburgh by landslide margins, and Republicans do well in the state’s “T” region — AKA that places where Philadelphia and Pittsburgh are not.
Philadelphia is won and lost in the four counties outside Philadelphia — Delaware, Chester, Montgomery and Bucks. A third of the state’s 8.2 million registered voters are in Philly and its suburbs. Those four counties have fluctuated in voter registration over the last several years, but still have a relatively balanced party registration compared to, say, Philadelphia, where Democrats hold an 8-to-1 advantage.”
When the unarmed black teenagers stop stealing cars, stop trying to kill police officers by hitting them with stolen cars, and quit running from the police in the dark where it is hard to see if they are facing you or not (unless they smile), they will stop getting shot.
Despite mumbling of the tired “he was a good kid” and “just starting to turn his life around” bullshyt, even the Black Lies Matter crowd are unusually quiet on this little turd… hard to rationalize trying to kill cops with a stolen car. Even the lowest and most feral blacks know the rules of that game.
If the city has black leadership and one of the usual snakes, such as Sharpton, get involved, the family will be winners of the Dead Negro Lottery… with everybody getting their cut of the taxpayer-funded payout… regardless if the shooting was right or wrong or even investigated (e.g. Freddy Gray).
Almost overwhelmingly in support of the police. Or maybe not even that. People could just be sick of the crime and of the criminals being painted as completely innocent victims.
I do wonder if charges will be brought against any of the officers.
Seems like the “fleeing felon” precedent is applicable since the guy almost ran over the cops.

Surprise! Trump’s ‘Economic Council’ Is All Men, All White
So Donald Trump’s “council of economic advisors” announced this week all White.
The announcement comes ahead of Trump’s speech Monday at the Detroit Economic Club, where the Republican nominee is expected to lay out his agenda for the American economy.
…Trump said in a statement released by his campaign..”For too long we have watched as President Obama and Hillary Clinton have ruined our economy and decimated the middle class. I am going to be the greatest jobs President our country has ever seen. We will do more for the hardworking people of our country and Make America Great Again.”
If you watch the video they had just stopped the patrol car and were getting out when he sped by the officers. He could have killed them.
From what I gather, the law doesn’t allow police to use deadly force against someone for simply running away, but if the officer thinks the suspect poses an immediate threat to the public or the police, then deadly force is authorized.
I don’t presume to know how cases with the police claiming fleeing felon justification have historically worked out, but I would imagine that almost running officers over could be successfully used as an argument if any charges were brought. I get the feeling there won’t be any charges.
So that’s important to you? You need a government you can squeeze one out to while you’re alone at night sitting at the computer watching Samantha Bee vids in slo-mo?
Sheesh I thought ChickenHead was a perv but you… 😮
I guess Trump’s ridiculousness has a bright side, maybe enough Repewplicans will see the light.
Unfortunately I don’t think there’s anything in the world capable of deprogramming the Demodrones. I don’t think we’d want them in the Lib anyway. :hmm:
I don’t get a Lib vibe from Trump at all. Most of the time he doesn’t explain how he’s going to do a thing just that “we’re gonna do it!” and the things he does explain aren’t Lib at all like wasting so much on some ridiculous wall. What’s he said that give you the Lib impression?
Considering the federal government spends around $5 billion a year on soda and junk food, I would be okay if we paid $15 billion in attempts to make a dent in the illegal immigration numbers. But there really is a way to make Mexico pay for some if not all of the wall.
Hit them where it hurts, not the assistance we give them every year. Instead, a surcharge or fee on money that is wired to Mexico from the U.S.
ChickenHead

I agree with Johnnyboy…
…tax money transfers going to Mexico and confiscate cash smuggled to Mexico (as the government is so quick to confiscate money held by Americans not linked to any crime)…
…but I can add to that.
When an illegal is caught, they spend a mandatory minimum sentence doing hard labor…
…building The Wall.
The actual wall is neither complex nor expensive. Clearing ground for its construction is a perfect job for 10,000 illegals and their shovels.
I could go on with specifics. You can likely fill them in for yourselves.
Trump is quite clever to set policy without specifics. Things change… and that leaves him the flexibility to change with them.
There is a good chance that The Wall will morph into a Virtual Wall… meaning through agressive arrests, harsh punishment, very harsh punishment for repeat offenders, encouraged shooting of felons such as coyotes and mules, anchor babies faced with adoption or deportation with parents, no government benefits or free medical care for illegals, etc., it will have the same effect as an actual wall, or better, without raising a shovel.
According to AEI, New York produced a similar GOP as South Korea but with a third of the workforce. Interesting comparison of the 50 states to various countries:

The announcement comes ahead of Trump’s speech Monday at the Detroit Economic Club, where the Republican nominee is expected to lay out his agenda for the American economy.
…Trump said in a statement released by his campaign..”For too long we have watched as President Obama and Hillary Clinton have ruined our economy and decimated the middle class. I am going to be the greatest jobs President our country has ever seen. We will do more for the hardworking people of our country and Make America Great Again.”
If you watch the video they had just stopped the patrol car and were getting out when he sped by the officers. He could have killed them.
From what I gather, the law doesn’t allow police to use deadly force against someone for simply running away, but if the officer thinks the suspect poses an immediate threat to the public or the police, then deadly force is authorized.
I don’t presume to know how cases with the police claiming fleeing felon justification have historically worked out, but I would imagine that almost running officers over could be successfully used as an argument if any charges were brought. I get the feeling there won’t be any charges.
“It is also a total sausage fest.”
So that’s important to you? You need a government you can squeeze one out to while you’re alone at night sitting at the computer watching Samantha Bee vids in slo-mo?
Sheesh I thought ChickenHead was a perv but you… 😮
GOP congressman says he’ll vote for Libertarian ticket over Trump

I guess Trump’s ridiculousness has a bright side, maybe enough Repewplicans will see the light.
Unfortunately I don’t think there’s anything in the world capable of deprogramming the Demodrones. I don’t think we’d want them in the Lib anyway. :hmm:
Problem is that Trump is more of a libertarian than Johnson… 🙁
I don’t get a Lib vibe from Trump at all. Most of the time he doesn’t explain how he’s going to do a thing just that “we’re gonna do it!” and the things he does explain aren’t Lib at all like wasting so much on some ridiculous wall. What’s he said that give you the Lib impression?
It’s more the Big Government speeches and positions taken by Johnson of late…

Smokes,
Considering the federal government spends around $5 billion a year on soda and junk food, I would be okay if we paid $15 billion in attempts to make a dent in the illegal immigration numbers. But there really is a way to make Mexico pay for some if not all of the wall.
Hit them where it hurts, not the assistance we give them every year. Instead, a surcharge or fee on money that is wired to Mexico from the U.S.
I agree with Johnnyboy…
…tax money transfers going to Mexico and confiscate cash smuggled to Mexico (as the government is so quick to confiscate money held by Americans not linked to any crime)…
…but I can add to that.
When an illegal is caught, they spend a mandatory minimum sentence doing hard labor…
…building The Wall.
The actual wall is neither complex nor expensive. Clearing ground for its construction is a perfect job for 10,000 illegals and their shovels.
I could go on with specifics. You can likely fill them in for yourselves.
Trump is quite clever to set policy without specifics. Things change… and that leaves him the flexibility to change with them.
There is a good chance that The Wall will morph into a Virtual Wall… meaning through agressive arrests, harsh punishment, very harsh punishment for repeat offenders, encouraged shooting of felons such as coyotes and mules, anchor babies faced with adoption or deportation with parents, no government benefits or free medical care for illegals, etc., it will have the same effect as an actual wall, or better, without raising a shovel.
