    ^^^ Come Tuesday, we'll be getting at least 4 more years of this corruption.

    I'm kind of curious as to whether or not Wikileaks waited too long to release this stuff. The email dumps are so large that it takes some time to get through them. It takes a while longer to figure out how to use them. And of course of a lot of people vote early. I feel like if Assange's goal was to get people as informed about Hillary as possible, he should have started all this a couple weeks earlier so at this point we have everything. Dropping a gigantic bomb 4 days before the election might take too long to get to everyone's ears.

    Prepare yourselves for President Kaine. There's almost no other alternative at this stage.

    Unfortunately, if the FBI does this before Obama is out of office, he will pardon her on his way out the door. If I were the FBI and I knew I had her dead to rights (which won't happen before now and the election), I'd hold off on informing anyone until January 21. Granted, she probably won't see the inside of a jail cell as Kaine will pardon her.

    I don't know enough about Kaine to say with any certainty if he's better than HRC or Trump, but I can't imagine him being worse. But I'll be honest, I can't imagine a scenario where she doesn't SOMEHOW wiggle her way out of this.

    It's gotten to the point where I can't believe any of those X supporter attacks Y supporter videos because it's been proven the DNC hire people just to do s*** like that, and I wouldn't put it past Trump to do the same.

    Why would a homeless lady be walking around with a Trump sign, and why would anyone physically attack a homeless lady? No, something smells staged about that.

    I don't put it past someone to have passionate political opinions (whatever it might be) just because of their living situation. If anything some of the quotes she had on her sign make it totally understandable, only one candidate has been saying to take care of our homeless before bringing in refugees. Also the Trump campaign has found her a week later and gifted her, perhaps she started this with the hope of being found and given something. If so, a rather smart thing to do as its paid off for her. If I was homeless I'd totally rip off that idea lol.

    Trump supporters being attacked in LA is commonplace. It's not safe to publicly support Trump here I see people posting vids and pics of being attacked all the time.

    What I don't trust is that this was just an organic incident that happened to be filmed.

    It just feels like there's some ****ery going on here somewhere. I bet she was paid to walk around with that sign at the least, or the whole thing was staged from top to bottom at the worst.

    She was there over night a couple days, became a news story before being attacked and in the video was surrounded by tons of people including news people. The initial video showed it ramping up with the guy talking crap to the old lady, the one posted above is the second video. In the days of camera phones there was no reason for it to not be filmed. I understand doubting it, but I also understand why she would be so loudly for Trump and why she would get attacked in LA.

    I just read that it costs $112 million for Secret Service to protect the candidates. Trump will lose this in a week. Hillary keeps as president and former 1st lady.

    That $$ amount is just criminal.

    Anyone believe there's any other outcome than Clinton winning the election?

    It's a shame the American people are so easily fooled.

    Everyone is afraid to be associated with the people that get made fun of on Late Night Talk Shows. Everyone is so insecure they MUST vote for the candidate the "cool" people like Lady Gaga are voting for. Many are easily fooled. Others are just spineless and weak.

    At this point I'd have taken someone who I disagree with on policy as long as they were a good, decent person. When is the last time we had a genuinely nice guy as President other than George W (who was a puppet for evil people)?

    While I don't agree with Bernie's socialist policies, him and Kasich would've been a refreshing battle for the White House. 2 mature, experienced men of priciple. Sigh.

    I did my part and voted for Trump, whether people disagree with me or not, I felt he was the best out of the two.... I'd still prefer a Mitt Romney...
