No, what "bothers" me, if that word even applies, is that I express an opinion about Trump's potential VP pick and I get back a recorded message (in addition to a bunch of insults). That's not what I come to Sigforum for. I come for the quality discussion.

Well, I am willing to guess that you have made a few ignore lists. Now, you are playing the victim.

And to slime the pages every now and then.

Hillary Clinton is also a combat veteran is she not?
Took fire in Bosnia at the airport on the runway.
No??

I see. Only people willing to sing from the choir book need participate.

That's fine. I'll leave y'all alone, I promise.

She tried to join the Marines as well. IIRC.

Sure, that move worked great for John McCain. Let's try that.

Right, because every female is a Sarah Palin, right? Being female doesn't qualify her for VP, but it doesn't disqualify her either. Do you know much about her? I didn't. But what I have learned is impressive, and Trump interviewed her recently.

Why put her down?

Very True!

But the Presidency isn't amateur hour, which is unfortunately what we've been dealing with for the past 8 years. So forgive me for wanting to see someone with some real intellectual heft in there.

Well, perhaps the problem of not having anyone available who has been president in the past might have something to do with it.

We do not meed yet another establishment asshole in the white house. We need someone who is independent of the "establishment", and will do what is necessary to head us back in the right direction.

We need someone who will cut gubbermint head count by 60-70%, who will do what is right, not what is politically expedient. That means a "new comer", like it or not.

Trump may not be perfect in all respects but he beats the hell out of anyone else on the horizon. We need someone with the balls to actually do what is necessary, not what will pass muster with the PC crowd or the establishment!

And to be clear, this is what I called "TrumpBot". Don't you think that reads like the output from a chatbot? I could pull dozens of other such phrases that I see over and over again from Trump supporters and have a bot just spew them out randomly onto Twitter or something. It would look exactly like this.

I'm am not a Trumpbot, I... am... a... TrumpMonkey™!

Obviously the choice need to be competent. If they can bring more voters to Trump's side, especially in swing states, that is a major plus.

Wow their really getting desperate and showing just who is their favorites to keep the same old crap going on. Looks like their paving the way just a bit for a take over candidate.

Poll: Clinton leads Trump, but how would November look without him?

Hillary Clinton has a 5-point lead over Donald Trump — a slight dip from last week in her margin over the presumptive Republican nominee, according to data from our latest Weekly Election Tracking Poll. This week, Clinton enjoys 48 percent support of registered voters to Trump's 43 percent.

As the campaigns gear up for conventions later this month, there have been murmurings of a "Stop Trump" movement that would open the convention to the possibility of nominating another Republican candidate.

Though Clinton has picked up momentum against Trump in the past few weeks, the general election in November looks different when we poll other Republican candidate alternatives against Clinton in hypothetical match-ups. Voters are split when Clinton is matched up against Mitt Romney. In a match-up against House Speaker Paul Ryan or Ohio Gov. John Kasich, Clinton falls behind. These results are according to the latest from the NBC News|SurveyMonkey Weekly Election Tracking Poll conducted online from June 27 to July 3.

Clinton has a clear advantage over Trump (41 percent to 38 percent) when Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson and Green Party candidate Jill Stein are included as choices in an alternative version of the horserace question.

One of the motivations of the "Stop Trump" movement is that other Republican alternatives are better general election candidates than Trump. Our hypothetical general election match-ups suggest that some Republican alternatives do, in fact, fare better than Trump against Clinton.

This week's poll asked how Clinton would do against former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, current House Speaker Paul Ryan and former presidential hopeful John Kasich. In the case of a Romney and Clinton match-up, voters are evenly split. Romney, an outspoken Trump dissenter, has publically denounced the GOP's nominee in favor of a more presidential candidate.

In a Clinton match-up against Ryan, the race is close, but Clinton is slightly behind. Though the House speaker has repeatedly said he has no interest in a White House bid, if the election were today and he were on the Republican ticket, Ryan would barely edge out the presumptive Democratic nominee by 2 points—47 percent to 45 percent.



Perhaps most surprising are the results of a Clinton vs. Kasich November match-up. Though the Ohio governor was only able to secure enough support during the primaries to win his home state of Ohio, he leads Clinton by 8 points—the same margin as Clinton's lead over Trump last week.



Kasich's large lead over Clinton is mostly due to the fact that he pulls in more Democrats and Independents than either Ryan or Romney—who pull in similar numbers of partisans. Though 9 percent of Democrats would go for either Ryan or Romney, Kasich pulls over 15 percent of Democrats. And while Independents are more tepid in their support of Romney or Ryan (roughly 52 percent), nearly six-in-10 Independents would swing toward the more moderate Republican candidate in a general election scenario.



Though a move to nominate a Republican alternative to Trump does not seem to have enough support to actually happen, our recent polling data suggest other Republican alternatives do perform better than Trump against Clinton. This is somewhat unsurprising as hypothetical candidates usually do better than the actual candidates in polling match-ups and it is still very early in the general election contest. Nonetheless, the results provide an interesting glimpse into the strengths and weaknesses of Clinton and Trump across different electoral groups.

All I hear when our horseshit media says Trump and Clinton are tied is that he will win in a landslide.

All I'm hearing from idiots is how racist Trump is, how he's going to destroy this country (what the fuck do they call these last 8 years?) and how horrible he is. Haven't heard any facts, just a bunch of whining emotions.

GOP is fucking stupid if they try to stop Trump. So damn busy fighting themselves that they don't want to unite and get this country back on track again from the 8 year disaster of hope and change.

something decent to ponder - we can hope the scandals are the leaches that drain Hilary's votes

Despite the lack of prosecution of Clinton for her emails (shocker, I know), I think the lack of prosecution should be a massive boost to the Trump campaign.

He now has endless fodder for commercials ("careless", "should have known", etc.), but, more importantly, he really has ammunition for saying the whole system is rigged and it's the perfect time for an "outsider" like him to come and torch the place.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Yes, no chance for prosecution, but Comey did give up many talking points pointing about her lies, incompetence, etc.

Of course, our Boy Wonder Paul Ryan decides to attack Trump instead of Hillary on the day of the FBI press conference. What a scumbag.

And good for Trump hinting that the Clintons might have bribed Lynch on that airplane. Everyone is thinking it, but won't say it.

Better late than never

Wisconsin Governor and former Presidential candidate Scott Walker told Wisconsin’s WKOW that a vote for anybody but Trump was essentially a vote for Hillary Clinton.

The popular Wisconsin Governor also tweeted his support of presumptive nominee Donald Trump Wednesday while squashing RNC convention revolt fantasies by declaring Donald Trump the inevitable Republican Presidential nominee.

Governor Walker will speak at the RNC convention in Cleveland.

Did you figure this out all by yourself, Oppenheimer?

For those who are, insane as this sounds, on the fence in regards to Trump, here is the official 2016 Democratic Party Platform released a few days ago. Just reading the table of contents is sickening enough.
