On the History Channel the NRA keeps running anti Hillary ads saying she'll take away your guns while showing her get out of a limo and getting on a luxury jet while a voice over of her saying she knows how hard the common folks have it

Whats the royalty payment on $55k in book sales anyways? $5k, maybe??

Even if they were trying to get on the best seller list, this goofy article already stated that some Tea Party jokers tried this with another book and spent ALMOST $427k and didn't move the needle.

Hillary sells government access and government favors to foreign donors to her foundation, and these guys are worried about where $5k in book royalties may, or may not have ended up?

I really hope this isn't true

You should probably invest in bullets and water if you honestly believe gold will be currency. The entire United States and thus world economy would have to collapse which 100% no doubt would cause anarchy and someone with a tank will take your gold

There is no WAY anyone can look at gold's track record and think it should ever be more than 5-10% of a portfolio

Please allow someone who knows what they are doing to help you diversify and invest. You seem like a decent person from past interactions...

To each their own and I have been handling my own money for years and and doing fine. On pace to retire at 55. Almost 24% percent return over last 12 months and this was not in gold. I know what I am doing

One things for certain, a year from now there's going to be a whole lot of "I told you so" posts regardless of who wins the election.
Granted, that's not a good thing, but it's pretty certain.

So now we know for a fact that President Obama authorized the transfer of $1.7 billion to Iran and basically lied about the process. More transparency from this administration after they are caught. I guess we can expect 4 more years of this?

You can expect it infinatum. Both major parties are bought and paid for shysters that couldn't give an oven baked crap about the average american. They want your vote and money for themselves and their friends. That's it.

Every President lies to the American public.

She was never charged with a felony, so she did not get off a felony charge. But yeah, it was a questionable joke.

Does anybody in this thread consider themselves to be Alt-Right? Is this something that people actually call themselves, or is it a derogatory term? This is a new term to me.

Haha, looking forward to making mine, and I have the feeling it'll be a very good thing indeed. But even if I'm wrong, I'd still present myself for the reckoning I'd have coming to me at the hands of the new Trumpocracy, have no fear.

And to NeilCO: "Alt-Right" is a newer term used by a particular group to describe themselves since it has a more palatable sound than their previous (and actual name) which is White Supremacists. Normally loathe to it in its many forms, apparently, they can make an exception for political correctness when it suits them.

As you were.

With any luck this thread will be deleted the day before the election and any post by anyone about this thread or election will be banned. I don't care who the winner is, we don't need post election drama or I told you so. It speaks highly of one character if I told you so's are even a thought, let alone an action.

Same here. But I am very concerned about any changes to the Amendments and my rights.

Well, geez, man, it was just going to be a little GIF of Hillary swiping some lint off her shoulder during that epic 11 hour appearance before a Congressional committee and a line or two from Taylor Swift's "Shake It Off", but now you made it all weird. I wasn't even gonna say nothin' else!
Just never mind.
