    Trump does not buy TV stations he buys Real estate. (Property and builds building and golf courses)


    It will not be a land slide win for either candidate. This will be a tight election.

    Obviously you are trying to prevent it, but what if you don't. What will you do to limit the reign of tyranny of Killary and prevent the ascension to power of any more like her. I admit that I haven't really given much thought to the idea of how I would react to a Trump presidency with the Republicans maintaining control of Congress. I just know that I would want to limit it to two years.

    If anyone truly wants a gov't that is free of influence peddling, get rid of the lobbyists...the guys that spread all the money around. If we do that maybe, just maybe, we can have a gov't not corrupted by legal bribery.

    I'm not big into following gun control, but it seams that there is a difference between taking away guns that you already own and tighter restrictions on future gun purchases.

    1st Amendment is an interesting topic because one of my biggest issues with the Republican party is their idea that they are the moral police of the country. Freedom of religion is fine as long as it is Christianity. I'm a firm believer that religion is and has always been the number one cause of conflict/war. I agree with you that I don't expect my morals to be pushed on any one, nor do i want their's pushed on me. I think a good example of this is same sex marriage, because if you look at it from a strictly legal standpoint (health care, property, taxes,...etc) who cares who is married to who, but most can't get past the religious aspect of it.

    I'll stop short of calling it a landslide, but Hillary will have an easy win in both popular vote and electoral college. There is enough data to analyze it.

    Not REAL data. The media is owned by Clinton's. Yes, CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN All 100% behind Hillary. Read the web and you would see and know that already.

    If you search for data to support your position, you'll always feel you're right.

    If you look at it objectively, Trump is in serious trouble.

    Tell me who with a good track record is predicting a tight race.

    Nate Silver's FiveThirtyEight correctly called the result for 50 of 50 states in the 2012 election, and 49 of 50 states in the 2008 election. There is nothing magical about his methodology, just sensible interpretation of data (http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/a-users-guide-to-fivethirtyeights-2016-general-election-forecast/). Tell me why he will be wrong this time.

    If I had to choose between being a blind sheep and drinking Donald's Kool-Aid I'm happy with my choice. (I will state that my vote is not 'for' Hillary but rather 'against' the Donald)

    That's funny!! I wonder if that's why he made her his Secretary of State. (I don't know this but I'll wager that remark was made in a pre-election speech.)

    Everyone should watch the below video. It is only 20 min long and if you still vote for Hillary over a 3rd party candidate or Trump so be it.

    It just a history lesson and does not say TRUMP in it one time.

    At least know what you are voting for and know you will be crying about it later.


    Here you go watch this and learn who Hillary Clinton is.

    The point isn't what she has or hasn't done, that's a different discussion. The point is she has very, very large lead in the election, and is sitting behind closed doors laughing. Trump is already making excuses for what's going to be an embarrassing loss.

    Could she be impeached some day for prior transgressions? Possibly. But that has no bearing on the election unless something incredible comes out in the next 22 days. She doesn't even have to campaign anymore at this point. The fact that you and many people, including myself, have major issues with her (actually for me, both candidates) doesn't change the fact that she's going to win going away.

    Which is why I'm making sure to vote in the congressional elections...

    Very true. This is the first time I'll be voting against someone and not for someone.

    I think it is rather obvious that the people involved in this thread have made up their minds. No need to keep selling it here.

    This ought to scare some folks....
