No, I cannot, because he is a private individual and his private business endeavours are his private matter (Libertarian, remember?), unlike Secretary Clinton who held a public office while the organisation operated, which does make it our business as it can directly skew policy on the basis of donations, and if you try to sell me the story about how she wasn't directly involved again then I'm just going to sigh because it's called The Clinton Foundation for a reason.
This kind of response to my opinion is why we can't have nice things.
You seem to have been too busy furiously typing "fuck off" to read my qualifier.
If you have no preference between the two or don't care about this year compared to the next year, we have no problem.
That's odd, I thought tax was theft. Anyway, the problem is that you can't just deport all illegal immigrants without destabilizing the economy of the places where a significant amount of them is working. It needs a lot more though put into it, even if you end up deporting them all in the end.
Your education system is already completely fucked.
One does not get to claim the moniker of private when running for public office, by definition. Again, I am not saying one should be compelled by law to release his or her tax returns. I am, however, saying it's our business as voters. It also shows poor judgment and poses a lot of questions when one does not release his or her tax returns, and why Trump still wouldn't do so despite knowing this compounds the questions.
This post wins the thread.
Just unfair taxation.
You're misquoting, that wasn't my statement, correct your quote.
That's actually a really funny and smart joke, well done!
So typical of liberals to misinform and disorient people! THE WALL GREW BY 10 METERS TODAY!
I actually did before you posted the reply
it ate a whole block of text because a ] went missing (don't know if it'll show up now or not)
Running, not holding. Big difference. Trump cannot use his political power to sway anything in either direction as he has none, Clinton could.
Sure. It's uncommon for politicians to be influenced by the activities of their immediate family, it's also uncommon for groups who wish to influence them to approach them through such channels.
It sure does. I should engrave it on my tombstone.
You seem to have been too busy being dismissive of other people's opinions. Sorry we can't all be graced to think like you are your flock and that we're so flawed as to refuse to vote for a person we perceive as an absolute piece of shit.
My preference is they both die in a plane crash and America has the chance to vote on real candidates.
That'd be funny. Who would rise to the challenge? The old geezer socialist Sanders, the "eco-socialist" Stein and Johnson, huh? I guess that's one way to get Libertarianism into a position of power.
If you believe Clinton is the better candidates, you should vote for Clinton. If you think Trump is the better candidate, you should vote for Trump. I don't think it's fair to call someone an idiot just because they disagree with you. Political views and intelligence are unrelated. There are intelligent people and stupid people on both sides
Imagine this scenario: The election race is close. Gary Johnson manages to win a single state. Clinton and Trump split the rest of the electoral votes. Neither gets the majority needed to win the election and so the decision goes to congress. Republicans control congress and they really don't like Trump so they band together and elect Gary Johnson president, as they are allowed to choose between any of the top three performers in the election. Now that would be a drama-filled election.
I think it's absolutely fair to call someone an idiot based on their beliefs if those beliefs are idiotic. In fact, it's the single best reason to call someone an idiot.
I like the plane scenario better - it's more chaos, and chaos is great. I have a game plan - you paint a funny depiction of Muhammad on the plane, I'll fill the cargo bay with bacon, then we'll tell the pilot to fly over Mecca - it'll be a blast!
I should confess, I saw it on Slashdot earlier. But seriously, we might go elsewhere or even fix everything, but it's a pretty big bet with too much uncertainty. I don't think we should risk the existence of civilization because of it if we can help it. Even if we're dead by then.
Throw in snakes on the plane and we've got ourselves a plan.
Don't worry, my bacon/Mecca joke is stolen too, but it fits too well with my devious scheme of painting the plane, so I had to use it. Let's make Mecca the holy land of bacon strips.
