A headline from today's RealClearPolitics.com:

quote:

Obama: Trump "Unfit," "Woefully Unprepared" For Presidency, Has To Be A Point Where Republicans Say "Enough"

It's the ultimate pot calling the kettle black....

I also don't seem to remember the Democrats saying "enough" in 2008, when they nominated the most unprepared loser in American POTUS history. Comparatively, Trump is infinitely more qualified.

if the debt goes up only by half under Trump he will have done twice the job of PBO

Trump in a landslide = Trumpslide!

Before the rise and nomination of Donald Trump, we never had a chance to beat Hillary... Not even a little, teeny, sliver of a chance... Because the GOP is and was that fucked up, because she is and has been that worshipped, and because people in general (on both sides) are just that stupid, that selfish, that distracted, and that narrow minded of voters.

But maybe, now, with Donald Trump's help, we may actually win this thing.

However, win or lose, Trump has helped save the GOP from itself, helped refocus what's important and what's not, helped thwart the Establishment's desire to maintain the status quo, helped expose the Media and their appalling lack of objectivity and appalling bias, and shown that first and foremost - a genuine love for America, warts and all, is powerful.

Ultimately, I don't know who will win, but I *think* we can, and *only* because of Trump.

No, in each case, I thought the GOP nominated the wrong candidate, and that Obama would win. I though Romney had a chance after the first term, but though McCain was dead in the water from the start. In the Obama/McCain election, I don't think any Republican could have won.

Same here.
McCain was a horrible candidate.
Romney had a better chance... and after the first debate I thought he could win. He kind of shifted into neutral and coasted though after that. He didn't fight tooth and nail to win.

With Trump.... if the election were held today, he would probably lose but like 538 says: predictions right now are meaningless.
It's really too early and too volatile to say.
I will say this: Trump is going to have to win in Virginia and Pennsylvania. It won't be easy.

quote:

That's what makes me so nervous about this election. I feel the same way about Hillary. There should just be no way she should win. Hell, there should be no way she made it this far, but she has.

Awhile back I said in one of these threads that if Hillary walked away untouched from the FBI investigation that it didn't matter who became the next president. Maybe I should have said that she will be President not that it didn't matter.

Well we all know what happened. The full width and breadth of the power and influence the Clinton's have should now be obvious to everyone. Honestly I thought she may have hit the wall with Comey but he is obviously owned as well.

There is enough corruption across the board now that it is no longer a concern about keeping it behind the curtain.
I agree with Trump. The election path is paved for Hillary. It's rigged. She didn't get this close to lose it and she won't. The fraud will be obvious for all to see but only half will care and the other half such as those of us can go pound sand. Just like when Comey walked off stage. Pound sand people because there is not a damn thing you can do about it.

Wikileaks or the Russians or some pimply ass kid in his gramma's basement can dump whatever emails or proof of anything she may have ever done and it will be to no avail. Nothing sticks, nothing gains traction. Nothing is brought against her.

It's a disgraceful shame that people like the Clinton's have been allowed to wield this much power and bring this level of corruption upon this country but it's a fact that can no longer be disputed.

After the way Clinton raped Sanders in the primary, I've a bad feeling that the Dems have another plan to rape Trump with voter fraud.

Yes, by all means, let's fret over phantoms and things over which we have no control, because that helps so much.

Hillary does not own Trump, and she does not own anyone who does not want to be owned.

But damned if I can fathom some people who say they support Trump, or anything but Hillary, then in the same breath, "prophesying" her ass right into the Clinton Humidor, (aka Oval Office).

Makes my brain hurt trying to figure it out.

I do not fear Hillary on bit. I fear the weak minded who fall for her witchcraft.

I think you mean "hires her again".

In my never-ending quest to mend fences, I have to say that she has been very gracious in accepting my reaching out to her. It does seem that she is willing to go the extra step in order to unite us all. Although I have the feeling that my words have ignited something unpredictable in her. Regardless, here is a lovely pic she sent me in appreciation of my efforts to mend fences with her. It's almost like we are BFF. (I had no idea PBS was allowed to get involved in partisan politics)

I was informed by a friend that Trump kicked a woman and her crying baby out of a rally today.

WTF, more ammo for the leftwing media to go apeshit over portraying him as an evil ogre.

You have to have a U.S. Attorney willing to prosecute. Their boss is Obama. Why is that hard to figure out?

You can't blame the police (who, if they are federal, also have Obama for their boss). A Dem administration is unlikely to allow the Dem candidate to be indicted.

I get it. She deserves it. But it isn't going to happen. You may as well talk about unicorns. Point out the crimes - use them to persuade others. But quit whining about an arrest and indictment.

I think I agree that Trump may have had the best chance of any of the prospects, although it is hard to say because it didn't happen that way, and to many variables exist.

I also agree that the GOP needs to find a new way. Clearly what it has been trying hasn't worked. I'm not sure Trump is that new way, but he has shaken things up. No one can deny that.

Thanks for sharing.

You guys are just going to have to buck up. Hand-wringing doesn't help.

Now that we all know how dirty Kahn is:

http://www.breitbart.com/2016-...ay-muslim-migration/

Khizr Khan, the Muslim Gold Star father that Democrats and their allies media wide have been using to hammer GOP presidential nominee Donald J. Trump, has deleted his law firm’s website from the Internet.

This development is significant, as his website proved—as Breitbart News and others have reported—that he financially benefits from unfettered pay-to-play Muslim migration into America.

A snapshot of his now deleted website, as captured by the Wayback Machine which takes snapshots archiving various websites on the Internet, shows that as a lawyer he engages in procurement of EB5 immigration visas and other “Related Immigration Services.”

The website is completely removed from the Internet, and instead directs visitors to the URL at which it once was to a page parking the URL run by GoDaddy.

The EB5 program, which helps wealthy foreigners usually from the Middle East essentially buy their way into America, is fraught with corruption. U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) has detailed such corruption over the past several months, and in February issued a blistering statement about it.

“Maybe it is only here on Capitol Hill—on this island surrounded by reality—that we can choose to plug our ears and refuse to listen to commonly accepted facts,” Grassley said in a statement earlier this year. “The Government Accountability Office, the media, industry experts, members of congress, and federal agency officials, have concurred that the program is a serious problem with serious vulnerabilities. Allow me to mention a few of the flaws.”

Grassley’s statement even noted that the program Khan celebrated on his website has posed national security risks.

“There are also classified reports that detail the national security, fraud and abuse. Our committee has received numerous briefings and classified documents to show this side of the story,” Grassley said in the early February 2016 statement. “The enforcement arm of the Department of Homeland Security wrote an internal memo that raises significant concerns about the program. One section of the memo outlines concerns that it could be used by Iranian operatives to infiltrate the United States. The memo identifies seven main areas of program vulnerability, including the export of sensitive technology, economic espionage, use by foreign government agents and terrorists, investment fraud, illicit finance and money laundering.”

Khan spoke alongside his wife Ghazala Khan at the Democratic National Convention last week in Philadelphia, and they were honoring their son U.S. Army Captain Humayun Khan—a hero who lost his life to a suicide bomber in Iraq in 2004. On behalf of Hillary Rodham Clinton, the Democratic nominee for president, Khizr Khan ripped into Donald Trump’s policies on immigration—specifically bashing his plan to bar Muslim migration from regions afflicted with rampant terrorism into America temporarily until the United States can figure out what’s going on.

Khan even brought out a pocket Constitution, claiming inaccurately that Trump’s plans were unconstitutional. That’s not true, as Congress has already granted such power to the president under the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952—allowing the president to bar migration of any alien or class of aliens the president sees as a threat to the United States for any reason at any time. Such a class of aliens could be Muslims, or it could be people from a specific region of the world, or any other class—such as someone’s race, weight, height, age, national origin, religion, or anything else.

The media, along with Hillary Clinton and her supporters throughout the Democratic Party establishment, has pushed the line of attack against Trump for days. Now on Tuesday, President Barack Obama has said that Trump is “unfit” to serve as President over the matter. Even a group of anti-Trump congressional Republicans has gone after Trump on the matter.

But as Breitbart News and other new media have exposed Khan’s various deep political and legal connections to the Clintons—and to Muslim migration—the attack line has crumbled. Now, with Khan deleting his website in an apparent effort to hide his biographical information, the attack is falling apart even more.

What’s perhaps interesting is that also on this website that he has now deleted, Khan revealed that he spent nearly a decade working for the mega-D.C. law firm Hogan & Hartson—now Hogan Lovells LLP—which connects him directly with the government of Saudi Arabia and the Clintons themselves. Saudi Arabia, which has retained the firm that Khan worked at for years, has donated between $10 million and $25 million to the Clinton Foundation. Hillary Clinton, despite the repeated urging of Trump, has refused to return the Clinton Cash money to the Saudis. What’s more, Hogan Lovells also did Hillary Clinton’s taxes—and helped acquire the patents for parts of the technology she used in crafting her illicit home-brew email server that the FBI director called “extremely careless” in handling classified information.

What’s more, the entire mainstream has proven negligence with regard to this matter as none of them even thought to look into this Khan guy’s law practice before bandying him about as some kind of magic elixir that cures the country of Trump.

As a matter of fact, someone posted a quote a while back, may be even in this thread, and it states my philosophy:

Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage with others. - Robert Louis Stevenson

Buck up. Encourage you fellow soldiers in this fight. Defy the enemy. Tell them to go pound sand, and laugh at them. Come on, gentlemen.

Voting for the Donald & beating the Hildabeast's ass is all the encouragement I require.
