I wanna know what that guy who kept saying Hillary was just Soros' puppet in his quest to take over the world and establish a New World Order has to say to this lol.

Me too XD

And that's without mentioning how he got even richer with OneWest bank.

At least we tried. Just another history lesson for us to not forget.

Unless he ends up doing a good job still.......

Well, I wouldn´t say voters really tried at all since they didn´t reflect on the fact that a compulsive liar might not tell the truth about draining the swamp. Voters were morons that went for the celebrity, not with candidates that had some substance in what they were saying (and I am not referring to Hillary in that case either).

lol at the idiots who thought Trump would be the second coming of Christ.

I doubt Trump's win was because of him being seen as Christ, thats absurd, but more about not wanting to spark a war with Russia. But thats just me, a believer of the lesser evil theory.

War with Russia? The last thing Russia would want is a war, but what they got now was a puppet instead.

So that's Bush, Obama, and Trump having the same Treasury Dept., as all three Treasurers have been colleagues.


I guess there's no point in voting at all, ever.

This is why I said people who think anything was seriously going to change were naive. 

Bankers are a lot of things, but thing they're not is stupid when it comes to self interest. They know how to play this game and are good at it. 

I never really thought things would change but at least one person was promising to try and changes things while the other was guaranteeing it would continue.

If I said "I hate guns" while I´m shooting people, would you really believe me?

Better hope global warming is a hoax I guess. Don't know if there is a lesser evil than that.

Even if the US-Russia were dumb enough lets things spiral downwards that far, Russia doesn't want any piece of the US in a head to head war, that would not go well for them, though they'd probably go bankrupt before any type of war could even start. 

Average Russian salary is $300-$500/month (yes *a month*). Imagine trying to live on that for a month. I prefer peace of course as well and I like many Russian people, but I don't think in any scenario is a war feasible between the two. 

Hillary was threatening war with Russia. They already invaded Ukraine and Syria because we can't keep out of other people's buisness. If you think they would lay down by even further aggression your delusional and history has shown the exact oppossite. At the end of the day what your talking about is pushing a country with pretty much nothing to lose and an arsenal of nukes to the edge. I don't want to play that game and Hillary even joking about it was extremely irresponsible. People are done with war they don't want to hear that your ready to go to war with a country that has nukes because they hacked your emails and people saw you for the scum you are.

No but if you were saying I hate guns while shooting people and the other person was saying I love guns and I want to get rid of guns which choice am I left with? I just have to hope there is some rhyme and reason to you shooting people more that I don't know or understand.

So you're saying you'd rather trust the guy you know is shooting people instead of something you don't understand? That makes no sense. Its like watching a cow stand in line for the slaughterhouse because it doesn't know what is beyond the open gate.

I think he's saying that Trump is less scandalous/more obvious about his agenda while Hilary has stated before that the person she is in front of the public and the beliefs she tells us is completely separate from the beliefs she has behind closed doors and in front of her colleagues. So in other words, Hilary would be like every modern politician ever while trump is at least an outsider that doesn't have a lifetime of conditioning in politics and everything that comes with that.
