Re: Wikileaks announcement at 2AM CST

The issue with Hillary is that she's an attorney. While she definitely has done some shady things, she's always stayed within a hair of the law. Trump has brazenly defied the law outright repeatedly.

Re: Wikileaks announcement at 2AM CST

And Trump's Stop and Frisk gun-grab does far more damage to the 2nd Amendment than anything Hillary has suggested in the assault weapons ban and considering no-fly lists in background checks for gun purchases. From a 2nd Amendment point of view, Trumps position is far more disconcerting than Hillary's.

No, they didn't.

Also, since Trump wrote about it, there's no confidential information which was disclosed.

Yes, this is how all Trump supporters are trying to spin the story.

Of course, this just adds another reason why Trump should release his taxes.

True, Trumps business failures aren't a secret. But I do hope he doesn't plan on running the country like his businesses. lol

I don't think that Trump broke the law regarding his taxes. However, it would clearly reveal how billionaires can manipulate the law in order to evade taxation altogether. He's a walking example of what is wrong with this country. lol

I paid my fair share, and I live paycheck to paycheck. And Trump manipulated the law to evade taxation altogether? If that doesn't upset you, maybe you should marry him, because evidently you don't mind him screwing you and the rest of the middle class. lol

I can imagine some Trump supporters on here staying up just to hear what the major announcement was to be... And nothing.

Roger Stone gleefully tweeted Hillary would be finished. Which is funny, because the only chance Trump has is if Hillary is actually arrested and forced to resign as the Democratic nominee.

Also funny is Originalist and other Trump supporters bashing NY Times, wrongfully claiming it did something illegal.... Yet they're waiting with bated breath on every tweet from Assange, who only receives and releases information ILLEGALLY!

Talk about a double standard. But they'll just -- deflect!

C'mon, even conservative news papers who have never endorsed a Democrat are endorsing Hillary. Republicans in Congress and all over the country are coming out for Hillary.

Face it, Trump is a LOUSY candidate. He dazzled the GOP in the primaries with his money and sarcasm. However, everyone thought it was an inside conversation and that he'd shift into being Presidential in the General Election. Sadly, we're discovering that the guy has no real tact or political savvy. Every time he opens his mouth, he sounds like an idiot or offends someone.

Bad candidate. Terrible candidate.

is trump flawed. I don't know one person that would say otherwise. The issue is his vision compared to Hilary's vision. They are both lousy candidates. Both have personal issue. However, each has a particular vision and I happen to agree more with trumps's than Hilary's.
