That's the biggest thing Clinton voters miss, she's as bad as Trump. Really the same with Trump supporters. People are so busy seeing the evil that they oppose, they miss it in their own candidate. They are both horrible, horrible candidates. Probably horrible, horrible people too. I don't know them personally (nor do I want to), but it sure seems that way. disagree strongly - just because both candidates are flawed, perhaps significantly so, doesn't mean they're equivalent. That's a bit like saying that a double-A centerfielder is the same as Mike Trout, because they're both professional players. They're not the same - one is far, far more qualified to play the outfield than the other. By relevant experience, Clinton is far, far more qualified to be President. By independent analysis, Trump is far, far more dishonest. Clinton has disclosed far, far more information about her taxes, her charitable foundation, and her personal life. Trump is, undeniably, far, far more bigoted and prejudiced. And, there's an overwhelming preponderance of evidence that Clinton is far, far more adult in temperament and communication. One of these candidates is a highly experienced, highly examined, fully-vetted person with weaknesses. The other is a petulant bully, a spoiled child of privilege, with arrested development at a 5th-grade level. And, given the commentary by Trump and his primary surrogates, there's more than a small helping of old-fashioned male chauvinism underlying much of their objection to a Clinton presidency - just as recent comments and actions by official Trump campaign designees , and elected Republican state office-holders in Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana make it irrefutable that old-fashioned racism underlies much of their resentment of President Obama. That's the problem with Clinton supporters, they are blind to all her flaws. She is not qualified, at all. She is probably more dishonest than Trump (granted, that takes some doing). She pretty close to being as big an @ss as Trump, but I'll give him the edge there. He should be back on TV and she should be in jail. And I hope your racism, chauvinism comment was a general comment.

The 6-year-old girl turned to her mother and asked, “What does it mean to grab somebody by the p---y?”
I was kind of wondering that myself. I've been in quite a few locker rooms and I was in the Navy for about 10 years, I heard some pretty low brow sexual "humor", but I've never heard anyone say anything like that. Doesn't even make any sense?? It's kind of like he's trying to talk like the cool locker room guys, but he doesn't really know anything about women. Fame gave him power over the opposite sex, Trump was bragging to Billy Bush, then the host of “Access Hollywood.” Only seen Billy Bush on the Today show a couple of times. Didn't really like him either.

Nah, sorry. There is NO comparison. That's the biggest thing Clinton voters miss, she's as bad as Trump. Really the same with Trump supporters. People are so busy seeing the evil that they oppose, they miss it in their own candidate. They are both horrible, horrible candidates. Probably horrible, horrible people too. I don't know them personally (nor do I want to), but it sure seems that way. Yet one man's ceiling is another man's floor. And you are entitled to your opinion as everyone is entitled to theirs. Cat said it best. If you don't agree, and Trump is your man, start another thread. And if neither will work for you, start yet another. The beauty of America is that we all can speak our opinions of whom we like and why. The ugly of America is that some feel as though they need to insult and bash those who disagree with them courtesy of the First Amendment and social media, instead of having a civil debate. and if one would step back and take a good hard look, would they see in themselves the very things that they appear to dislike in those others? Dunno...just exercising my first amendment right to air my musings on social media....

[/quote] Dunno...just exercising my first amendment right to air my musings on social media....[/quote] I know what you're saying, but 1st amendment rights don't really pertain to social media. 1st amendment has to do with government interference, not other people's opinions or people who own the social media. As we all know, people (and dogs) can get kicked off social media sites.

I have been in the same room as the donald on a couple of occasions. I have had my own real estate company in nyc since the early 1990's. I can tell you first hand that he has a deliberate strategy to shortchange vendors, regardless of what contracts have been agreed upon and signed. He pays them what he thinks he should. It's gotten so bad that, of the smaller vendors, only those that desperately need work are willing to chance working for him. It's really a despicable way to do business

'Course there is the whole Clinton Foundation way of robbing the poor to pay the rich, but both are so horrible I refuse to defend either, except to give balance to their perfidiousness.

It's really a despicable way to do business And that to me translates to this campaign insofar as this: if he signs a contract and then disregards the terms, what precedent is there to say that he will honor his promises made on the campaign Trail and this is where I feel people should be wary, because as far as I can see, promises and Contracts mean naught to him.
