They say this is oldnews.
No, but it’s a decent reason and a concern. She is no spring chicken and the campaign has been tough on her. I doubt if there’s anything that serious, but I accept this as a valid concern.
But not as a reason to vote for Trump.
We need some sort of Smilie for an admiration of bravery. And FWIW I admire you saying what you feel.
I saw this from America’s favorite pharmaceutical exec:D
Y’know, Clothy, you and I don’t agree on anything politically, and have been rather insulting to each other in The Pit, but I will say this for you:
I have to admire your ability to stick to your guns, even in the face of a seemingly never-ending stream or snark and insults. I don’t agree with your views on anything that I can think of right this second, but I have to respect your ability to swim upstream, and to announce something on this board that you know is an unpopular sentiment.
It takes spunk. I hate spunk.
You do know that he is a hedge fund manager with utterly zero knowledge of medicine, right? He has a high school interest in chemistry that has led him to spend most of his business life playing with pharmaceutical companies, but he has less knowledge of anything medical than a C- student LPN.
So she’s a Dalek? Makes sense to me…
She must be the older classic Dr. Who model Dalek that cannot negotiate stairs
“You’ve got spunk. I hate spunk.”
Hehe. Lou Grant to Mary Richards on her first day of work at WJM.
I would vote for Trump over Clinton on the off chance that he is just trolling the Republicans and if elected would return to his historical moderate political views. But considering he seems to be doubling down with his selection of a TeaBag VP and going more extreme I’m leaning Johnson right now or Karen Weaver as a protest write-in vote.
ETA: Suppose tomorrow Trump said that he said all that to get nominated and started to campaign as rational candidate, would he win in a landslide or would it cost him too many right-wing votes?
Clothahump, a question if I may;
All of those are reasons you list, legitimate or not, are why you would never choose to vote ***for ***Hilary Clinton. But the question asked was who is voting ***for ***Trump. Do you have *positive *reasons to vote *for *Trump? Do his positions resonate with you? Do you think he is a strong, clear, consistent, engaged, interested and responsible enough for the role of World Leader and Commander-in-Chief, or is simply being *‘not Hilary’ *considered a good enough reason for you? I’m interested in understanding the good things about Trump that others see; thanks.
Well, he’d have to issue a comprehensive apology for every nasty, idiotic, racist, misogynistic, ableist, and otherwise bigoted thing he’s said just in the past fourteen months or so.
It wouldn’t be a landslide, either; it might be a horse race, and it might actually be close, but he’d lose a lot of conservative votes and he’d mainly pick up independent votes, which wouldn’t help him in winning over the solid blue states on the map. He also has no campaign apparatus and he has a campaign staff composed of people who joined and stuck with him throughout the Old Trump period, so he might lose them if he changed tack that comprehensively. He’d have a serious uphill battle, and there’s no indication he’d be capable of it even if he were entirely sane and moderate.

Best typo of the month.
As much as I vehemently disagree with the severity/incompetence angle that Trump supporters take against Hillary, at least I understand it. However the whole Benghazi situation really aggravates me because the GOP/Trump Supporters completely fail to acknowledge, admit, deny or flat out are uneducated on the following FACT:
Prior to Benghazi there we 20 embassy attacks and 66 deaths under Bush! Where is the unbiased outrage?!
For the record I do not blame Bush, Powell or Rice 100 percent for those attacks, yet somehow Hillary is hammered on this. The GOP is really reaching on this one and hoping for short memories of the voting public.
I will probably hold my nose and do the unthinkable. I cannot say for sure as it will come down to whether or not I’ll feel worse about throwing away my vote on Johnson or potentially helping to end the Republican party. Meh.
Denial is apparently more than a river in Egypt to you.
[QUOTE=FBI Director Comey]
From the group of 30,000 e-mails returned to the State Department, 110 e-mails in 52 e-mail chains have been determined by the owning agency to contain classified information at the time they were sent or received. Eight of those chains contained information that was Top Secret at the time they were sent; 36 chains contained Secret information at the time; and eight contained Confidential information, which is the lowest level of classification. Separate from those, about 2,000 additional e-mails were “up-classified” to make them Confidential; the information in those had not been classified at the time the e-mails were sent.

What about your denial about all the falsehoods about “letting the whole world look”, and “getting a US ambassador and three security people killed”, and “establishing a “foundation” to accept bribes from foreign powers in return for political favors”, that you put forward?
Also, are you interested in discussion, or just bomb-throwing? I’ve tried to engage you in actual reasonable and factual discussion before, but I’ve never succeeded. If this will be just another Clothahump fact-free bomb throwing session, then no need to continue; I’ve seen it before.
You’re using Drudge as a cite? Please tell me I’m getting wooshed. If Drudge reported the sun would rise in the east I would start expecting to get hit by a nova.
She is no sodding chicken, but Trump is even older than her.
What if Trump gets elected then, also being older, suffers a similar illness and needs be replaced?
You want his VP in charge?
At least if Hilary drops the new President isn’t sworn to overturn Roe vs Wade!
I’d take my chances with Hilary, I think!
There’s also the slight fact that military ROE’s are not designed by, nor initiated by, the Secretary of State’s office. But other than the fact that the SoS is not in the chain of military command that would cause orders to be given or withdrawn, yeah, she’s responsible. :rolleyes:
Even Fox News had copped to the fact that no one, even Hillary, was responsible.
No stand down, no missteps.
