Mega Thread The Random Thoughts Thread Part 2: Electric Portaloo

If you want the epic finale, imagine if Trump wins, and some of the actual electoral college voters switch to Clinton.

The funny part about that is that she still stands a genuinely good chance of winning the popular vote.

 

[LukeSA]

When he wins, his acceptance speech will be the smuggiest smugness in the history of smuggery.

More smug than George Clooney's 78th Academy Awards acceptance speech?

 

[tribey]

Hillary though.

Even if you take everything at face value that there was no wrongdoing or attempt at clandestine dealings/corruption at using that private email server.

What the utter fuwk was she thinking there?

You're the Secretary of State of the most powerful and targeted nation on the planet you complete skeeze.

"Ohh, I'll just set up my official communications hub in that spare room I have behind the doilies and my collection of Me To You Bear teapots".

And the 'deplorables' comment. Way to get people who already didn't like you - but preferred you as the giant douche to Trump's shit sandwich - offside by validating his claims that the elites don't give a fig about the common man and are victimising them/him.

Gosh.

Load her onto her rocket and shoot her into the sun.

 

[Full Credit]

this is the best result the left could possibly hope for. time to stop arguing over whether sushi is cultural appropriation and actually become relevant again.

 

[I Dont Care]

Nobody wins

"I'm here for you, Hillary"

 

[bomberclifford]

So did he, except his celebrities were Ted Nugent and Stephen Baldwin. And, of course, himself.

When the Zombie apocalypse hits, I'm heading straight to Nugent's bunker with as many weapons and ammo I can steal along the way.
He'll be the new leader for the post-Z world.

And having the maid, the ****ing maid, print off confidential emails.

The world is already changing its focus and policies they have had for over 50 years, beautiful.

I have heard George Bush did the same thing with emails, but it's not even talked about.

Honestly, it's just a convenient "reason" for people to dislike her. It's very, very clear people make all the important judgments within 0.1 seconds of looking at a candidate, and any facts presented after that are simply adjusted to fit their view.

"Trump has sexually assaulted many women, Trump bought 100s of thousands worth of supplies from small businesses and just didn't pay" -> He is good at business, and the women are just lying for attention

"Hilary Clinton kept emails on her private server, which technically broke a law, but others have done the same" -> hilary for prison!!

"She is corrupt" is thrown around over and over, however the facts don't support this, or at least suggest she is no more corrupt than any other politician, but people say it enough and it becomes a "fact" of its own.

Trump may actually go to prison for assaulting a young girl, but people either don't know or choose to conveniently forget.

It's the same as "that lady definitely killed her child and pretended it was a dingo, look she isn't crying she is a monster".

People are quite simply really, really stupid unless they go out of there way to question their biases.

Welcome to the world of misinformation and propaganda.

Now, tell me, how do you know what is and isn't truth?
What filter do you use to land on one side of the story and not the other?
How do you know it isn't you that needs to 'question your biases'?

It gets murky very quickly and it's never as clear cut as it appears to be, no matter what leaning you have.

LOL at the thinking that the email saga is the only reason for Hillary hate

Well you see I've got this imaginary friend who knows everything...

LOL at the thinking that Hillary hate caused this result.

Hillary hate was already being thoroughly expressed. The silent Trump vote we've been hearing about is the hate that fewer people are willing to openly express. Race hate, LGBT hate, misogyny, hate of all other.

I don't think people voted for trump because they thought he was better than Clinton ,

He didn't win because of the smear campaign.

I think its e genuine message sent by the people with only power they have over the elitist.

This time their vote wasn't cast for the same agenda policies no matter who they voted for
