    Point is, when (not if) the war comes to our shores, I do not want that cunt in charge and declaring our unconditional surrender. I want the egotistical blowhard in charge, ready and willing to throw the full weight of the greatest military might the world has ever seen at the enemy, full bore. As a veteran, I care about these sort of things.

    Oh don't take my statement as support of that fucking dirty bitch. I was only clearing up a dispute. I personally fucking hate them both! But I'd rather have him than her. Thank you for your service!

          Can we all agree that voting for president this time was like playing Russian roulette with a fully loaded revolver? There is no possible outcome that's good.
          HARAMBE FOR PRESIDENT!!!
          That's my president!!!

            It is bad from either side when the "stuff" consists of lies and innuendos. Calling everyone else is a common liberal political activist ploy. They have been using it so long that the majority of the population now sees it as what it is, pure lies. Example: Trump want to do something to stop the follow of illegal aliens into our country. The liberals immediately infer that the term "illegal aliens" refers to those who are from Mexico. That inference sounds a lot to me like racism considering that the term actually refers to anyone who is here illegally regardless of race or country of origin.

              I really don't give many shits about American politics - but I'm sure I remember Trump saying stuff like "Mexico... they aren't sending us their best.. they're sending murderers and rapists..." or something along those lines...

              Surely that's why 'liberals' are picking up on that? As an outsider who didn't follow the election you must remember that these are the things we see on TV. Not his manifesto or him saying "illegal immigrants" - the news just focusses on him saying "build a wall and make mexico pay" and "mexico is sending their rapists here"

              Anyway - not meaning to stir a pot - but you must remember that for the average foreigner who doesn't care about politics, all our exposure comes from the super-sensationalized media which certainly did paint a bad picture of trump's opinion of mexicans (seemingly in general)

                I have no problem with his post. After all, this an international forum. Also he did hit the nail squarely on the head with "all our exposure comes from the super-sensationalized media". Had the media been reporting the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, Hillary would not have even made it through the primaries.

                  The leaked emails proved that she shouldn't have made it through the primaries that Bernie Sanders actually won or would have won. Not that I wanted him for president anymore than I wanted either one of those other two worthless asshole.

                      No arguments here. Social media is even worse. Keyboard Warriors are the bane of society.

                        Look, right wing news is as skewed as any other source. I try to watch all sources and form my own opinion. Keep an open mind and don't follow someone just because he is running in the party I associate with. I will not support someone who is a fear mongering racist. The "Us vs Them" BS just divides a country.

                          I agree about the us vs them, this has lead to some of the most sad events in human history.
                          Then again, globally speaking, is there any news that isnt biased ? i have stopped watching the news and reading the papers for over a year now and i am still up to date about most things going on...

                          The internet is full of unfounded argumentation - people tend to lie their asses off just to get a/their point across.

                          Time will tell how it all plays out and one can only hope for the best. Which is pretty sad.

                            Something even more disgusting than American politics? A stack of magazines and a customer's bathroom. There was like 15 magazines in there. And like 15 fat women working there. How's that for random?

                              By right wing news are you using it as a generic or are you referring to RightWingNews.com. Established conservative sources such as John Hawkin's RightWingNews.com, Robert Cleveland's ANDMagazine.com, ConservativeReview.com, Politichicks, ChicksOnTheRight and Pamela Gellar try to properly research their stories. The majority of their followers are true Conservatives and true Conservatives do not tolerate lies. Recent startups such as Youngcons.com are learning this as they get negative feedback from conservatives.

                                I guess Trump isn't a true conservative. He lied his way through the whole election.
