2016 USA Presidential election thread II: And. Here. We. Go!

[Krandor]

Pretty ironic considering no one gave 2 shits about Trumps indiscretions until fucking October 2016. All of this shit, wiki leaks, trump tapes, would have been nice to see in the primary.

This definitely goes hand in hand with the popular conspiracy theories (which are being heavily vindicated in all these wikileaks dumps) of the Dems wanting Trump so they could use all this ammo during the general, and since all the media organizations are in HRC's pocket, they sat on it thru the primaries so he would get the nom.

New Trump groping accusation just dropped...

Woman says Trump reached under her skirt and groped her in early 1990s

Kristin Anderson was deep in conversation with acquaintances at a crowded Manhattan nightspot and did not notice the figure to her right on a red velvet couch — until, she recalls, his fingers slid under her miniskirt, moved up her inner thigh, and touched her vagina through her underwear.

Supporting legalized prostitution would be one of the biggest and best things she could do. I don't know why people are against it.

I think that you could reasonably say that a lot of his opponents on the republican side didn't take his candidacy seriously until it was too late. And I think that a lot of republican candidates didn't want to sink as low as to personally attack him, they actually tried to win based on policies. Something which we all know is a real casualty in this race.

Believing all the media organizations are in HRC's pocket makes me laugh. Not just because of the level of tin foil hat conspiracy, but because half the people I know that say that think of Brietbart as the shining beacon of truth, and the other half some liberal equivalent I haven't really heard of.

I highly doubt media organizations sat on anti-Trump bombshells. They care more about the scoop and the ad dollars and clicks and pulitzers they can get than some huge conspiracy to give Hillary an easier opponent. Remember that most newspapers and TV networks are owned by bottom-line driven huge publicly traded companies, profit is what they care about.

As far as the Clinton campaign wanting to run against Trump or Cruz or Carson over Bush or Kasich or Rubio...duh

[Krandor]

It's been in the Podesta emails that Hillary's campaign has both veto power over articles and can control on what date/time they get published so...

Articles that depend on access to Hillary or her campaign people, yes.

In regards to the election, I can honestly say I'm tired hearing about both Bill Clinton and what he may have done, and all of the things Trump has said on Howard Stern. There's a few things Trump said on Stern that were really bad (like letting Stern call his daughter a piece of ass), but for the most part it's just creepy old man talk.

Is there any actual proof she wants to get rid of the Freedom of Information Act or that she supports legalized prostitution?

I'm too tired to find the link were she publicly talks about her disdain of the FOIA, but her whole email debacle should be enough to show her stance; as for prostitution I provided the link in my last post taken from a meeting with BLM.

Isn't legalizing the oldest profession a good thing?

I have found nothing in the Podesta dump that is even remotely unexpected.

Not even the Risotto?

That's what I say. Honestly it's better all around. People are always gonna be hooking, at least we should increase the safety of everyone involved.

Seems like a clear win-win for everyone

[archibaldcrane]

But like she says, that's not something in the control of the feds, if a state wanted to legalize prostitution they could.

I'm personally not against it, but it's one of those things you could imagine if Trump said the media would have a field day.

[Dantrag]

I thought it WAS illegal at a federal level? Just like pot is even though states have made it legal the feds can still swoop in and arrest people and take all of their stock/wares etc.

No, that's why in Nevada there is regulated legal prostitution in brothels. Human trafficking is a federal crime, but not prostitution.

Wiki:

"The regulation of prostitution in the United States is not among the enumerated powers of the federal government. Under the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, it is therefore exclusively the domain of the states to permit, prohibit, or otherwise regulate commercial sex, except insofar as Congress may regulate it as part of interstate commerce with laws like the Mann Act."

I like how people are trying to say she supports prostitution as if thats a bad thing.
