Maybe we should just elect Trump president

no reason you can't be polyamorous and love more than one, we won't judge you

I hate to go all Michael Moore on you guys, and it's great that the Dems has some nice speeches this week, but you guys do realize that Trump is ahead in most polls, right? And if there's a major terrorist incident in October? Forgetaboutit.

This isn't even close to true:

The current polls also are showing trumps convention bump. They're not recent enough to do the same for the Dems yet. How about we wait a week before acting like the sky is falling?

I'd say it's closer than one who uses logic and critical thinking would expect it to be
…definitely close if Dems think Trump doesn't have a chance (kinda what the GOP is banking on)

and Johnson with 7.6 of the popular vote…whoa

I'm still proud of my Nader vote in 2000, and would definitely consider Johnson this year if Trump (or Cruz or Carson) wasn't the nominee. Sorry, Gary, have to go with Hillary.

I still Wednesday night was the amazing one… what a line up!


Mr. Khan holding his copy of the constitution and calling out Trump… that was my favorite moment of the entire thing..

Bernie Sanders and his supporters should crawl in a hole and die.. booing Panetta…. they have proved me 100% correct… the left wing of the party is a joke.. I dare them to vote for Trump. Funny how some who supported Bernie are now beginning to walk back their enthusiastic support of him….. not so funny anymore boys and girls?

What can you expect from the folks who registered just so they could vote for the revolution and then realize what an election actually is. All or nothing?!?
How'd that work as a kid? You still holding your breath for that full sized Voltron with light up eyes and lazer sword?

I have never used the term "entitled Millenials" until I met people who refuse to vote for Hillary and simultaneously wipe their hands of any responsibility of the consequences thereto because they are "going to give America what they deserve."

Petulant (asshole) children.

The "busters" have such a myopic and personal view of the election and political process that it's maddening.
The same people spewing equality rhetoric won't look past their own "either way it won't affect me" mindset that they can't see their neighbors, or even friends, that a Trump presidency could affect.
Or maybe they all live very white, upper middle class American lives.

Or threaten to leave the country if Trump [Jesus Christ, I still can't believe it] is elected instead of staying here and trying to fight the good fight. Fucking losers.

You know who trump is going get jobs for ….Lawyers….lots of them

Juan's last comment is classic
Fox News Host: The Bush Administration Got Bin Laden, Not Obama

    JUAN WILLIAMS (CO-HOST): I don't think most people, I don't think most Americans, even Trump supporters think Donald Trump really knows a lot about how to combat terrorism.

    ERIC BOLLING (CO-HOST): I'll tell you about who doesn't know a whole lot about terrorism, is President Obama. And he's proven that over the last eight years. Remember when he said "I want to lead from behind," he said –

    WILLIAMS: He never said "I want to lead from behind."

    BOLLING: – "Let's pull out of Afghanistan and Iraq."

    KIMBERLY GUILFOLYE (CO-HOST): The "jay vee team."

    BOLLING: – "Jay vee team." He's failed on every level as far as counter-terror all the way through.

    WILLIAMS: Oh, I see.

    BOLLING: And if you point to Bin Laden, that wasn't Obama's administration that got Bin Laden.

    WILLIAMS: It wasn't?

    BOLLING: That was the Bush administration that set up the kill shot, and Obama took the kill shot.

    WILLIAMS: Up to then, I was listening to you. But goodness gracious, you went overboard.

I don't get what Juan is doing at Fox News.. I mean I think he just wants to the big paycheck for being the token black guy.. just like Geraldo gets one for being the token latino…… earlier this week Geraldo was staring at O'reilly in disbelief when he went off about people wanting him dead (regarding how great a time White House building slaves had)…

I kind of feel sorry for them but then again they made their bed…in Geraldo's case its kind of sad.. the guy started off being a fairly hip cool dude…..

Of course neither of these guys are Alan Colmes.. how does that guy sleep at night?

On a bed of hundred dollar bills. . . Hundred. Dollar. Bills.

good point…


I guess I'm weird.. I don't care very much about money… then again I don't have very much so I guess I got to believe that…

Geraldo had to do it for the money. He found that safe and opened it and there was nothing.

I watched that special live!

Bernie Sanders should hold a press conference in the morning to apologize for running against Hillary and step down from the Senate. After hearing this, any person who ran against her is basically human shit. Bernie certainly hates progressive democratic policy, no doubt.

oh don't be a sore winner.  having some competition made her a better candidate and has better prepared her for the next 102 days.  i dare you to tell me that bernie hasn't forced her to move a little left of her previous positions.  no way should would have been talking about free college for the middle class w/o bernie.

agreed that that was the best i've ever seen hillary.  can't wait to see next week's polls.  i think that trump did better than hillary at their respective conventions, but likely because expectations were a lot lower for him.

what i found interesting was how emotionless bernie was last night.  every time they cut to him he was blank.  i imagine that he was thinking to himself "that coulda been me, that coulda been me…"

after hillary's speech, that arena looked like a giant Ikea ball pit.  effing hell… it's as if someone said "the GOP had a lot of balloons?  I'LL SHOW YOU WHO HAS A LOT OF BALLOONS!!!"

Hil's two best zingers from last night:

- (after pointing out that trump ties are made in china not colarado, trump suits are made in mexico not michigan, etc.)  "make america great again?  how about making THINGS in america again?"

- "a man you can bait with a tweet should not have nuclear weapons!"

;D
