I am quite looking forward to the Trumpmeisters demise.

Re: 2016 Election
Trump supporters are lurking outside of local Democrat/Clinton campaign offices and "showing" their guns to the unarmed people working inside.
When will the threats and intimidation stop? |

However - think back to the Republican primaries; Trump got ALL the media attention ... when Jeb Bush and such were trying to talk about 'issues', Trump got wall-to-wall coverage. So this is consistent behavior; everything Trump does is "news" ... |

They don't know about all of the others, they are humiliated, and other than with the people closest to them, they don't talk about it. Serial molesters/rapists/pedophiles know how victims tend to self-blame and they count on that to keep their whole game going.

Re: 2016 Election
Hillary’s State Department Pressured Haiti Not To Raise Minimum Wage to $.61 An Hour
In Haiti, people work for peanuts. Slave wages. Less than $5 per day, but they supply the U.S. with tons of affordable clothing from big-name brands like Levi’s, Hanes and Polo. Haiti’s big advantage, compared to Asia, is their proximity to us, and thousands of Haitians are employed in the textile industry in part because of that. When Haiti passed a wage raise from $.24 per hour to $.61 per hour, American companies were predictably outraged. U.S. companies, especially the clothing manufacturers, outsource their manufacturing to places like Haiti specifically because they can get away with paying slave wages. They would only support a minimum wage increase to $.31 per hour, and decided to get the U.S. Department of State involved to try and pressure Haiti’s government to keep the wage raise down. This took place in 2011, and Hillary Clinton was the Secretary of State. Our corporations were successful, and Haitians continued to work for worse slave wages than they otherwise would have, all so U.S. corporations could take home higher profits.

Hillary’s State Department Pressured Haiti Not To Raise Minimum Wage to $.61 An Hour Cliff notes: It's an absolute disgrace. We live in a disposable society where consumerism rules. Companies keep costs low so that people buy more and more and more. Politicians work for large corporations, not for the people. This won't change until we get rid of lobbyists and stop putting the needs of big businesses ahead of the needs of human beings. That won't happen unless we get rid of the 2 party system so that people who don't get massive donations from big corporations to fund their political campaigns are still able to be heard by the public. This is a large part of the reason why I don't much like Clinton. But if anyone thinks Donald Trump is likely to change any of that, you're barking up entirely the wrong tree. |

Totally agree and Trump is as bad as Hillary, well in the same zone, arguments about who is worse are pointless. |
Re: 2016 Election
Here, in his own words, is what Donald (the sniffer) suggested today at his New Hampshire rally with regard to his opponent ....
"I think we should take a drug test prior to the debate because I don't know what's going on with her, but at the beginning of her last debate, she was all pumped up at the beginning, and at the end it was like, huff, take me down. She could barely reach her car. A lot of things are going on, folks. A lot of things. I think she's actually getting pumped, you want to know the truth? She's getting pumped up",...She's getting pumped up for Wednesday." The man is deranged, desperate and dangerous |
