2016 USA Presidential election thread I: The warm-up

[ringthree]

Personally, I don't have a problem with the VP pick. The guy has some views I don't agree with but I might be in the minority here in not wanting a hyper partisan ticket. I could be wrong, but I feel like such a pairing would only make the republicans in congress stick to their current philosophy of, "Whaa, my way or nothing at all."

I think Pelosi is drunk or having a stroke on stage.

She is like 8 billion years old.

Head is basically a list of bullet points that have been repeated for decades.

I am beginning to believe that Headay is just a conservative post both.

Also sorry about the late posts, been at a conference all week and I am catching up.

Oh no

Left the party after being a registered democrat for 10 years. I won't reward their behavior or throwing progressive values under the bus.

Can't wait for Syria to be another blackhole like Libya once Hillary gets in.

Truly we are Israel's greatest ally.

>>implying Syria is in better shape than Libya right now, lol

can we end the Hillary-destroyed-Libya meme.

No, we can't. No matter how clearly you or I lay out the facts, no one will reevaluate their position on the issue.

[Zealot]

I hadn't heard the Hillary/Libya connection before very recently and I have to hand it to Republicans, realizing the cut-off date of when to stop blaming Obama and start shifting to Hillary.

[Qeomash]

She worked in his White House, so everything was actually her fault.

How can it not be when it has the white lion valiantly fighting for his nation.

Holy shit my phone thought I was way more important than I am.

[ringthree]

Why the fuck is my phone randomly quoting other shit?

[ringthree]

Also, am drunk, but I have posted long enough to drink post without multi-quote.

[Andalusian girls]

[Aerin]

[Tyche]

Yep. No idea. Biggie makes more sense and probably offends fewer people.

Sanders delegates claim chaos on Monday was because they still thought Bernie could win.

Bernie could have had a heart attack and dropped dead on the convention floor and they still would have thought he could win.

[Krandor]

And what about every other night that forced them to install white noise machines and coordinate counter cheers whenever the Sanders delegates got out of line?

[Gredival]

You go to a daycare and see if you don't want a white noise machine

About the whole Hillary e-mails thing: I've never thought she should go to prison for it. I figure even if she had been indicted she would have gotten off with no jail time and probably not even any sort of conviction (which is probably part of why charges were not recommended, they knew they wouldn't successfully prosecute). What I do think the e-mails show is some poor attention to detail at minimum, and I also do buy into the theory things were setup specifically to avoid FOIA requests, which should make people question her judgement and trustworthiness.

That said, while a small part of me would be open to risking Trump in the hopes that it wholly destroys the GOP and/or causes us to have a Constitutional convention to fix our clearly broken system, the chances of either of those is rather small, and the chance of him simply being monumentally terrible is rather high, so I am certainly on the Hillary > Trump side of things.

And with all that, I live in a state that 100% is going to Clinton, so I'm still voting Stein. I'll be encouraging people in swing states to suck it up and vote Hillary, but those in safe states can toss some votes towards Stein. I think worst case scenario the electoral college will save us from some brexit shenanigans.
