Hillary's laugh in this vid is so forced she comes off like a mentally ill person or bad actor playing an evil scientist in a B movie.

Despite how bad the deck is stacked against Trump (media-wise, gov't dependency of most voters, big money being thrown against him), this is a big hint as to how he can still beat her. She has no charisma. None.

I find it hard to believe that the Democrats could have found anyone less likeable with less social/human skills to run.

Trump's tax plan is not a flat tax. His proposal uses a fairly standard progressive tax with 4 tiers instead of 7.

Trump's plan as outlined here: https://www.donaldjtrump.com/positions/tax-reform is missing some key details that would allow for a thorough analysis.

The basic message is: Trump would cut taxes for everyone except people relying on loopholes and exemptions and he'll cut corporate taxes. The cuts will be paid for by closing loopholes. Without actually knowing what loopholes he intends to close and how he intends to enforce those changes and ensure the exploiters pay up, it's hard to evaluate his plan in full.

On phone, can't quote.

100% agreed, completely horseshit ad from Hillary. I'm not even saying this as a fanboy.

Unless her aim was to remind me of her barking like a dog during her own attack ad she shouldn't have sampled Trump's ad. Free advertising bonus. Trump- 1 Hillary- 0.

Do we need this thread? What goes here can go in the main Trump thread.

Edit: I merged it with the main thread.

Agreed, complete fail. It's unoriginal, reactive, and only Hillary's most unlikable and out-of-touch feminist hag supporters are likely to find it funny.

i'm pretty sure he uses/used or know which loopholes to use to pay less tax.

Sure, I'm just saying we can't reasonably have an in-depth discussion about possible consequences for Trump's tax plan without knowing what those plans actually are.

The funny thing about Volume 1 and 2 especially was the sheer number of people talking smack and then having to quit. Volume 3 was good also but it only had 3 people dropping out (naturally) and didn't seem as good to me personally as I've already seen all the scenes used numerous times in various other videos. I still like it though, otherwise I wouldn't have posted it.

The oblivious arrogance of those guys in the first two videos is striking.

Was Donald's ad where he shows Hillary barking the ultimate agree & amplify response to the Trump is sexist ad in which he is accused of calling women dogs? I think so.

Anyway, is Rubio going to be slain in some kind of macabre ritual for failing his cult leaders during a meeting in a tower of a Gothic castle.

We choose the nominee, not the voters: Senior GOP official

The backlash is strong in the comment section. 10K+ votes all threatening to leave the Republican party if they deny Trump over bogus rules. Obviously those comments are representative of the voter base writ large, I wonder how suicidal Republicans are feeling this year?

Not only that.

One of the key concepts I talked about in Stumped was domination of space. Trump is winning in large part because he dominates so much media space. He sets the political Go board.

What do I see in that ad? Immediately I see that Hillary is operating in Trump's territory. Not her own. She's buying into Trump's frame. Trump is the proactive one and she's being reactive.

It's already starting.

In Stumped I explored every single presidential election in history. By every conceivable metric that I noticed in those who won, Trump has the advantage over Hillary. I think this is going to be a landslide assuming normal rules are in play (no voter fraud or contested conventions, etc.) and Trump can come across as less of a fearful presence.

I don't think Trump will take kindly to having the nomination taken from him.

Because it means they wasted his time. And he doesn't like having his time wasted.

At a social today I spoke with a writer for the Washington Post. She works three jobs and all are very shaky. Constantly thinking about privilege and '-ism's. 100% WNB.

As soon as she started accusing people of sexism and talking about white privilege I figured she was not a closet Trump supporter.

Interestingly, I slipped in some non-PC things which should have caused an outrage about five months ago. It was passed over.

The ice is thawing, gentlemen.

On top of everything, the clip of Clinton laughing comes from the hearing about her Benghazi fuckup. Complete failure on all levels.

So I watched this video that some people posted:





Great video showing how much of hypocritical shithead Bernie is. However, I noticed a comment on YouTube that claimed that Bernie said recently something along the lines of that "there are no poor white people/they don't know what it's like to be poor."

I was thinking: No fucking way he is that stupid to say that. But he did during the March 6th debate.

Quote:During the Democratic debate in economically distressed and racially diverse Flint, Mich., CNN’s Don Lemon asked both Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders the same question:

"In a speech about policing," Lemon said, "the FBI director, James Comey, borrowed a phrase saying, ‘Everyone is a little bit racist.’ What racial blind spot do you have?"

When it was Sanders’ turn to answer, he began by talking about several specific examples of racial discrimination. He [Bernie] then drew a contrast with what whites experience.

"When you’re white, you don’t know what it’s like to be living in a ghetto. You don’t know what it’s like to be poor. You don’t know what it’s like to be hassled when you walk down the street or you get dragged out of a car," Sanders said.

Poltifact did a detailed breakdown of his statement and they do a good job clearly showing that plenty of whites live at or very near poverty levels. You can read about it here:

http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/...-you-dont/

Anyhow, I've been saying for a long while that the democrats are anti-white and if anyone need overwhelming clear proof to shut up libtards (especially white libtards) and maybe convert them to get on the Trump train, just show them that link. Bernie's comments are incredibly offensive, racist, and enraging on a visceral level to the vast majority of white people who have or know another white person who has experienced the ramifications of being poor.

Can you imagine the outrage if Trump said that black people don't know what it's like to be poor? Even I don't think he could survive such a retarded statement.

I'm not religious but I pray that Hillary gets caught making a statement like the aforementioned between now and election day. The political fallout would be massive. In the meantime, find people who admit to liking Bernie (a lot of libtards do) and show them that link and give them a harsh reality check on what the democrat party is really all about.

I am convinced that most Bernie supporters have negative net worths and/or have never owned anything more valuable than an iphone. (or macbook, if white)

You'd be surprised. I live in an upscale town and I see Bernie yard signs all over. The other day I saw a decent-looking guy in his 40s with a Bernie tshirt.

Don't kid yourself thinking it's only "loser" millenials supporting him.

I believe you. I just don't see his appeal beyond "free stuff", especially "free college". Though he is right about campaign finance.

His appeal is that of a non-threatening white guy who also cares (or pretends to) about the lower classes. Since liberals are obsessed with image and status, by supporting Bernie, a liberal wants to signal to you that he also cares about the poor, despite living in a gated community.

Trump is too "openly white" for east coast liberals to handle.

Bernie isn't white though. He's Jewish.
