At best, he is light on details of all of his policy. But based upon what he has stated that he wants to do, the costs would be astronomical - I really struggle to piece together why conservative voters would vote for someone whose only real conservative idea is a bigger move toward trickle down economics. Everything else is spend, spend, spend - wall, defense spending, mandatory paid maternity leave, more military actions, etc - all while reducing Trump's federal tax.

I fix the last part. Now, it makes perfect sense.

He put out a 20 page white paper on his policies

Wikileaks just posted the 4th batch of Podesta emails. I recommend everyone take a look.

Looks like there will be roughly 2000 released per day for the rest of the month.

And I would not call that "emotion". You know, they don't smile because they are happy. They smile because they HAVE to.

OK. If they smile because they HAVE to, why does she need a cue to do it? Like I said, she has been in politics for 30 years. If she is so "experienced", she should be able to smile on her own.

Do you know what emoticon stands for? emotion/icon. Kinda like this

, a smile.

In looking at all of these it makes you wonder how in the hell they will find the time to represent the American people.

That's why I said whether the cheat sheet is legit or not.

Emotion includes feeling. Politician's scripted smile is just pulling the muscles.

With the MSM and Hillary supporters burying their heads in the sand about all the new Wikileaks info, that is about all they can do with how much corruption and lies are being exposed. This info should really put "party lines" aside so we don't mortgage America's future to all of this bad stuff, but that would be too rational and objective.

No I was being very sarcastic it feels like 30! I'm ready for her and Bill to go away.

If there is gridlock with a typical president who at least has the backing of one part of the legislature (their own party), HTF is anything going to get done if a president doesn't even have his/her own party on their side?

Yep - and Shel Silverstein has a 200 page book of children's poems - not sure what your point is.

My questions for anyone that has read that 20 page document, gone through his campaign promises, enjoyed his ideas, etc is...What policy have you gravitated toward and why? Which of his campaign promises have you found to be differentiating, unique and attainable?

trixstar · 10-12-2016, 11:35 AM

They can released 10k emails per day for the rest of eternity. The only question remaining is how many Republicans down the ticket Trump will take with him.

This is what happens when you have a disruptive candidate that doesn't conform to any establishment. Sanders was the same type of candidate on the Dem side, but he was colluded against by the DNC and everyone on the left to not get as far as Trump has for the GOP.

White = blank? I think I get his point.

I like his holistic view of America first. A lot of his positions show he will do what he thinks is right for all of America, while pointing out (rightly thanks to Wikileaks) how Hillary really is for Globalism and Elitism.

Dear Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, I Am Not Sidney Blumenthal

Is NewsWeek liberal scum? Someone clarify please.

Turn the country into a dictatorship like Russia :/

The guy who wrote that piece also tweeted that Donald Trump had spent time in a mental institution...which was later deleted because it was false. Bravo.

So, a couple of things to point out with this statement:

1 - Not one of his policies is mentioned here.

2 - Why is it that no Trump endorsement can be given without a "Hilary Sucks" message in it? OK that one is a question, not a statement.

I get what you are saying and understand my post is based in curiosity not confrontation.
