I might actually hate Trump's surrogates more than the man himself. At least Trump might just not know what he's doing but his surrogates are just blatant bullshiters.

Even more people to blame for his failure later
From Yahoo reporting on a recent rally...
Trump told the crowd he would fight for them and hammered Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton as being out of touch and unwilling to be truthful or apologize for mistakes. “While sometimes I can be too honest, Hillary Clinton is the exact opposite,” Trump said. “She never tells the truth.”
“In my Administration, every American will be treated equally, protected equally, and honored equally,” Trump said. “We will reject bigotry and hatred and oppression in all of its forms.”
Is it opposite day?

No, that's just how Trump's brain operates. Pure, unadulterated psychosis.

It all depends on how you read what he said. When Trump talks about his administration doing things "equally", he fails to specify any particulars. Equal to himself? Equal to Rosie O'Donnell? Equal to what? When he talks about rejecting bigotry, hatred and oppression, that doesn't really mean anything, either. Rejecting something is passive. He's not saying that his administration will take active steps towards preventing bigotry, hatred and oppression by anyone. Saying you reject a state law that allows evangelicals to discriminate against gays is not the same thing as issuing an Executive Order preventing such discrimination.

Hey black people! Did you know you're poor and unemployed?
It must be true, because Trump said so. Vote for him because "what have you got to lose?"
Wonder how many bullet wounds his foot has now?
Edit- I almost forgot! Your schools suck too, but he loves the uneducated, so vote early and vote often

I mean, isn't that the message that people have been trying to get across to us privileged honkies? It's hard out there for blacks because of unemployment, rubbish school systems and poverty?

I mean, isn't that the message that people have been trying to get across to us privileged honkies? It's hard out there for blacks because of unemployment, rubbish school systems and poverty? Took the words right out of my mouth. This election is irritating me mostly not because of the candidates themselves, but how much its exposing how stupid people I knew and respected are. And I'm not talking exclusively about Trump supporters. I am one of those crazy folks who thinks Hilary running for President should be overturned due to legalities and corruption. I voted for Sanders in the primaries because he was the lesser of 3 evils. Trump has some good policies if you go looking for them beyond the memes and propaganda mainstream media news stories shared with you by your echo chamber friends. I also find the "I'm not going to be politically correct" banter hilarious at times because I'm tired of the way the internet gives crazy people all kinds of power to try silence people who disagree with them. However, he's also stirring up some real nonsense with his followers as well, and I cringe at things he says sometimes. My mom is a legal immigrant and a staunch Republican who is worried he runs his mouth too much. She says she will vote for him, but she hopes he reins it in. I've been waiting for someone socially liberal and fiscally conservative for some time. Trump fit that mold at one point, but I think he's starting to pander to conservatives enough to make me question what he's really going to put energy into. I will say that I am entirely appalled at, and fed up with, global, corporate corruption, job outsourcing, tax evasion loopholes, and the like, and he says he's going to work to put an end to all that. I'm willing to give him 4 years to put his money where his mouth is to see if he will do it. He also put up his healthcare policy outline a long time back and said the magical words I've been waiting to hear from a political leader for a long time: "Americans are crossing the border to have medical procedures done because the healthcare system is corrupt and charges people way too much money - this needs to end." I'm in full agreement. I've also seen Obamacare disappoint friends and family based on how expensive it is as well. So, yeah, my vote is hesitantly going to Trump. Not much else choice for me, but I simply refuse to vote for Hilary, and Trump at least has some policies I'm for. Politics suck, and there's rarely a solidly great choice. This is the most I've said on the matter in months, too. If Trump wins, I'm popping a lot of popcorn to watch all the whining. Either way, life will go on as it always does. The internet is a world that looks vastly different than the one I live in every day.

I don't believe a single word of the molten shit that seeps out of Trump or any of his cronies' mouths.
Fuck them.

Yeah that tweet was a low blow. Trump just rails off on everything and everyone on Twitter. That's where things come out of his mouth without taking a pit stop in his brain.
We don't need a knee jerk President like that.
People might not like Clinton, but if you wanted Sanders' policies, her plans include a lot of his ideas because of how much support he got in the primary.

So what are our thoughts on nearly-dead Hilary?
Is a half dead zombie-lady the best you can do against Trump? Really?

As I've said before, if any other Democrat were running against Trump the election would be over. If any other Republican were running against Hillary the election would be over. Whichever party loses really, REALLY deserves to lose.

You are legitimately fucked.
As is the UK is after Brexit.
The similarities are peculiar.
Hoisted by our own petards.

Hey I don't like Trump as much as any of you but when it comes to Hillary I guess I just don't get why people think she's this incredible candidate. If she's such a tremendous candidate....why is she virtually tied with presumably one of the worst presidential candidates we've ever had? Shouldn't she be creaming him right about now?

Because people are grasping at any excuse they can to vote for the racist guy, also the media is doing anything in their power to look "fair and balanced" and it's leading them to make huge scandals out of minor things because of it. In any other election cycle using an incorrect email server, getting sick once, and having run a damn charity would not be scandals and if Trump did any of the above it wouldn't be given nearly the same air time.

Trump is the best thing to happen to Hilary as despite her many despicable flaws she still comes out looking like the sane choice.
She must be laughing into her Cornflakes.

Speaking of charities, Trump hasn't put a single penny of his own money into his Trump Foundation in probably at least 8 years. Like all of his transactions, he goes around asking others for money,then makes donations in his own name and gets all the accolades and awards for himself.
Trump only does what's good for Trump. He says he will divest his businesses and give control to his children, but that does nothing in reality. He will use the office for his own business interests and the amount of business dealings his children do will benefit from his position and policies.
In his economic speech yesterday he made mention of the Ford decision to move their production of small cars to Mexico. He alluded to job losses in Detroit, but Ford is not planning to lay off anyone. The workers will be transferred to the assembly lines for big cars they are continuing to make here in the USA. So again, he's misleading the people who believe in everything he says.
Also, his tariff plan can easily backfire. Putting tariffs on imports sounds good on paper, but that can lead to other countries putting tariffs on our exports. Tariff Wars can result in economic downturn and recession.
He's going to FUBAR all of us and try to make a profit like he does in all his business transactions.
