2016 US Presidential Election Thread XIII

[prbiker15]

"Taking away guns from gangs and people that use them". Oh, Trump...going against the ideologies of your own party.

 

[BigMacPhisto]

Bill DeBlasio is probably shocked by all this talk...it's a little inside ballpark for two people to talk relentlessly about an NYC issue since they're from the area.

 

[corianderstem]

To me, she's coming across as patient and vaguely amused, even as Trump talks over her.

I can see where smug might come from. She might be a little self-satisfied to be all "look how patient I'm being with this buffoon," but you know what, I'll take it. It's either that or resorting to eye-rolling.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

I have property there

 

[BigMacPhisto]

OMG. The birther issue. This is gonna be great.

I mean, holy fuck, did anybody in 2008 think they'd be debating Obama's citizenship in 2016? Jesus fucking christ.

 

[Moonlit_Angel]

I have property there

I'm trying to count how many times he says some variation of that, regardless of the topic of conversation.

 

[Moonlit_Angel]

Trump's answer to this birther thing, I can't even.

 

[corianderstem]

He was able to get him to produce his birth certificate. ... does he want a cookie? This is not something to be proud of.

 

[BigMacPhisto]

Trump got in a good hit about the Muslim garb pics that the Clinton campaign sent out in 2008.

 

[corianderstem]

"Hey, it wasn't just me and we didn't have to admit anything" is not really a good answer, sir.

 

[Moonlit_Angel]

"I noticed the nasty commercials you do on me, that I don't do to you...maybe I'm trying to save the money."

This from the man who just got on Clinton for acting holier-than-thou.

 

[anitram]

This is so embarrassing.

Everybody supporting this know-nothing should be deeply ashamed.

 

[corianderstem]

He's stopped interrupting her so much, at least.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

I opened up a club in the whitest neighborhood ever, and let a black guy join, so I'm so totally not racist.

 

[BigMacPhisto]

Wow, so he makes up some fake 400 lb person in a bed that could be the hacker?

Then we get to bring up the DNC issues for no reason.


Then he talks about his son being good at computers, "cyber" and our "governmental society"

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

I am equal parts amused and horrified by this.

 

[corianderstem]

I had no idea he had a son that young; I thought he just had the 3-4 grown kids.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

 

[Irvine511]

Clinton is coming across as smug, fake, polished, sure.

Smart, prepared women often sound that way to older men.

 

[corianderstem]

"Wrong."

"Wrong."

"Wrong."

*awaits fact check*

By the way, sir - NYPD tweeted that murders are, in fact, down.

 

[Diemen]

Trump: No, stop and frisk isn't unconstitutional because I, a man who is completely ignorant to constitutional matters, say so.

 

[corianderstem]

Hey, surprise! In 2002, Donald Trump said he supported invading Iraq.

Edit: although the quote is "I guess so," which does kind of line up with his comments now.

 

[BigMacPhisto]

Her facial reaction to him blaming the media and Clinton for saying he was for the Iraq War...

 

[Moonlit_Angel]

"I also have a much better temperament than she does."



Okay, dude. Okay.

 

[BigMacPhisto]

She can't even stop laughing at this ridiculousness. Got to hand it to Trump, if he's one thing, it's certainly entertaining.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

@funnyordie: Fact check: Trump is correct that nobody wants to call Sean Hannity. #debates

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

At this point I think Clinton's best strategy is to just not say anything at all and let him just keep talking.

 

[Moonlit_Angel]

At this point I think Clinton's best strategy is to just not say nothing at all and let him just keep talking.

Solid strategy. That's what I'd do.

 

[corianderstem]

"I have a much better temperament than she does. I have a winning temperament!"

 

[BigMacPhisto]

At this point I think Clinton's best strategy is to just not say nothing at all and let him just keep talking.

Yep. I think she appears better when she's not attacking and just letting his idiocy stand on his own. When she attacks, it actually gives him legitimacy in people's minds.


So, he says nuclear is the country's biggest threat but then doesn't say why...just complains that other countries aren't paying us for our protection.

Trump's unpredictability would make this the most amusing thing ever if he could hold onto a thought for more than three seconds. Instead, your brain just collapses in on itself trying to comprehend what he's saying.
