    Donald Trump actually believed in more of the things he said than Hillary. Hillary didn't have any policies except 'vote for me because I have a vagina'. [...]  Hillary actually tried to cover it all up, the money from Saudi Arabia, while promoting women rights, unbelievable.
    I trust you won't mind me pointing out that the DT media playbook requires each message to be declarative, not speculative; requires it to finish up with an insult of some kind, preferably without a verb; and requires that the final punctuation should be an exclamation mark.

    You should have written that last sentence as:

    The edited text is much snappier and hopefully, sticks longer in the seething cauldron which is the mind of an angry DT supporter.

    I hope this helps.
    Sorry, you bored everyone with that post.

    To where ? Muslimstan where all Muslims come from ?

    Does that include the likes of Shaquille O'Neal, Dave Chappelle, Mike Tyson, Omar Sharif,... ? Or just poor Muslims who nobody knows ?



    Don't encourage Islam, try to get them out of the religion. Learn about the natural world. Religion is bullsh*t.

    Banning people from a country because of their religion is ironically the most Hitler like thing that you support. I don't agree with many aspects of Islam, however I would never support banning them or deporting because of their religious beliefs. The average Muslim is not a terrorist as you seem to believe.

    Majority of Muslims aren't terrorists, yes. But Islam is a regressive ideology and I for one don't know why people defend it, then claim to be for women and LGBT rights.

    Gratz, Billy, it's very entertaining to see the alt-rightlets get so thoroughly trolled for once. I don't think I've seen them this revved up in ages. The low-information thing appears to have gotten a nerve.

    Maybe we should troll them more. Makes a difference to trying patiently to explain the blatantly obvious to them.

    For instance those who after spending the election season on here and still comes out with absolute bull (&/# like Hillary having no policies aside from having a vaginally which came up here only a few pages ago. Granted from a non voter but it still shows how people get the impression that Trump supporters have less of an idea of what is going on.

    Banning a person from entering the country because of their religion is regressive..... I will not defend Islam but I will defend one's right to practice their faith.

    Safety first, but it isn't going to happen anyway. I think people on here should look into Islam more, learn what the scriptures say.

    The American people thought she had no good policies, as seen by the election.

    Which does nothing to argue against the fact that you were wrong about her having 'no policies apart from a vagina', but that's to be expected from a "low information poster" (again, using the PC term) which you seem absolute dead set intent on proving to us that you are.

    It's not sports. He actually has to govern after jan20th and will face a lot of opposition.

    Not from Sanders supporters he won't. They just won't vote Democrat.

    By opposition do you mean protests, more recounts, or more lies from the media perhaps ? They were all failures last time I looked.

    No, I mean opposition to his policies.

    In the first 100 days he plans on repealing low income healthcare. Raising the retirement age. And gutting old age pensions.

    There will be opposition to these plans.

    I'm perfectly aware of what is in the Qur'an, most religious text express horrible views. It's not safety first to ban people from a country because of their faith..... It's extraordinarily intolerant.

    A hahaha hahaha.

    Duck and dive. Duck and dive. This post has absolutely nothing to do with someone saying she had no policies.

    Also what 51% or 52% of voters seemed to agree with her policies. At least more than Trump's at least.

    Yet she got the most votes. 3 million more than Donald.

    As seen by the election, the American people thought she had good policies and you'll completely ignore that fact.

    Presidents over there are elected by the states, not the people. It's not necessarily a system I agree with, but Hillary could have won if she didn't arrogantly assume some of the more traditionally blue states weren't just about tired enough of being ignored to turn red, and ignore them.

    Ironically, she lacked diversity in the amount of areas she should have appealed to. Trunp took advantage. I actually was surprised to see him nab Florida tbh, wasn't expecting that.

    Change the subject, change the subject!

    The discussion is about people not thinking Hillary had no good policies, not who won the election. Thus the popular vote is entirely relevant to the discussion.

    Well actually the discussion was about Hillary having no policies at all but we had another patented Trump supporter subject switch like the one attempted above.

    The election is NOT about the popular vote. Trump didn't campaign for the popular vote, neither did Hillary. You need to win the electoral college to win the election. Trump decimated her on that and that is why I can say without hesitation that the American people did refuse her. 

    If Hillary and her policies had been so good, was going to create millions of jobs, toughen up immigration, she surely should have won, but it was the opposite. She was weak on all that. She lost Northern states, Trump destroyed the blue wall, won the working class rural vote, defeated political correctness along the way.

    Hillary had everything on her side, she even had GOP establishment figures on her side, a lot of the liberal media on her side and got decimated. Trump actually survived the Billy Bush tape, which would have destroyed any other politician from Ireland/UK or the US but he managed to still win.

    He did so because he changed the narrative quickly, in terms of conversation that incident was over after a week and a bit and Trump came out with something else to get the focus away from it, politically very smart. No one is saying Trump is some great moral crusader but he is a great strategist politically. His victory was the greatest political victory I have ever seen and will ever likely see from a candidate.

    Will be interesting to see how the Trump administration deals with Syria, in particular the north of the country. Can see some more trouble brewing between the Kurds and the Turks.

    She didn't even visit one of the states, for a long time did barely did any press conferences. Trump worked his ass off for the win, he was all over the place, constantly working away to get his message out. If he runs again, he will win again. I don't see anyone who is on his level for strategy and having that will to win.

    Read it again. That's not what I was talking about at all. I know why she didn't win. Never mentioned that at all. We were talking about policies and the American people agreeing with it.

    You just completely changed the subject. :confused:

    So did my main man, Gary Johnson. Although I imagine Aleppo will haunt his dreams in a similar manner to countless Syrian soldiers.
