With the number of times she has been caught lying is there any reason to trust anything she says about any subject.
Putin associates had $2 billion in offshore accounts, report says.

Putin says Hillary is lying about this to try and create hysteria and influence voters.

Do you think the Clintons hacked the voting machines in the South?
Hard to believe that that every black voter thinks the same thing about her. Are they mindless sheep?FIRST of all -- it's actually not easy to tamper with votes, in the US. Some are saying the Russians have sort of tried a bit, but even they won't be able to.
SECOND -- no, Hillary Clinton did not hack the voting machines in the South.
THIRD -- guess what, black folks like the Clintons. They just do, and this is their RIGHT. If they ever want to be Republicans one day, that is their right too. There's a lot of analysis of this out there, you can google it up, that it's just that minority voters are actually more conservative in today's D party. Whereas the more liberal views are from whites in the party. Over time though, minorities are becoming more liberal too.
The black vote went for Clinton, simply because they are more conservative and Clinton was the more centrist / conservative candidate.
The Clintons won in the South, and she won the nomination, she just had more votes.
Black folks stuck with Bill Clinton in the 90s, and then they were loyal to Hillary, and they'll stick with her on November 8th too.
What does the Russian government 's opinion have to do about anything? The fact she lies more often then Putin just makes the case against her.With the number of times she has been caught lying is there any reason to trust anything she says about any subject.
The Putin government lies even more, though.
Look folks -- I don't mind talking about the wikileaks, if only the same person talking about the wikileaks can also write just as much about the Putin government.
Putin and the oligarchs' corruption is worse than the Clintons. Everything over there, has a kickback to it.. from the Olympics, to military contracts, everything.Putin associates had $2 billion in offshore accounts, report says.

Trump Aide Carter Page Slammed America During A Moscow Speech
Donald Trump’s right-hand man criticized American foreign policy for using cold war stereotypes and “often-hypocritical focus on democratization.” But it wasn’t all doom and gloom– if Trump’s foreign policy chief was against American policy, he loved Putin. Mr. Page publicly complimented Russia, currently aiding Assad in Syria against American-backed rebels, for “really moving ahead.”

Again I could champion him as apposed to Hillary on almost every count based on the depth of her depravity but I will let it rest as I will not vote for either one of them as they both would be a disaster for the country.Sixstrings wrote:vtsnowedin wrote:Why doesn't he talk about that?

The ONLY thing, the ONLY time I've ever heard Trump say something that makes it sound like he has traditional Mike Pence type of Republican views.. was just one time, Trump was saying something good about Putin or something like that, and Trump said something like "now okay, we have a different system of course."
That's the only thing I can remember though vt, can you cite anything?
Trump's certainly talked a lot, for a year. Can anyone cite some traditional Republican Ronald-Reagan freedom sounding kinds of things? Talking about the Constitution? And sounding like he understands why democracy is the best way in the world?

Why this Iraq War veteran is supporting Hillary Clinton
From the moment I stepped off the bus and onto those world-famous yellow footprints at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, South Carolina, the U.S. Marine Corps constantly drilled into me – and every other Marine recruit – the importance of one being able to maintain their bearing.
Throughout this entire campaign (and her career in public service), Secretary Hillary Clinton has shown that she, more than anyone else running – and certainly more than Donald Trump, knows how to maintain her bearing.
She’s shown that she has the acumen to lead under pressure and she’s presented her case without bringing dishonor upon herself or embarrassing our country.
Secretary Clinton is aptly prepared, on day one, to serve as president of the United States and commander-in-chief. She will keep our nation safe. She will destroy our enemies.
Mrs. Clinton will also ensure our veterans – my fellow veterans – are welcomed home from service not simply with more standing ovations at football games, but with quality health care that’s delivered through a strong, fully-funded and fully-staffed VA; welcomed home not with more yellow ribbons, but with what we need more than anything else: a job – a good job that allows one to live a life with dignity and live out the American Dream that we fought to protect and defend.
On the other hand, her opponent, Mr. Trump, is the most unqualified, unfit, and unequipped candidate for the presidency that our nation has ever put forward.
Mr. Trump has no plan to keep us safe. Well, he says he has a plan, but he won’t share any pieces of it, aside from leveling attacks against our military, speaking in a terrifyingly careless way about our nuclear arsenal, being fickle with our allies, and fawning over dictators like Vladimir Putin and Sadam Hussein.
Mr. Trump has no plan for veterans. Sure he likes to use us as political props, but what else? He’s said that he doesn’t support the GI Bill. He wants to destroy and privatize our VA. And when it comes to jobs, he’s been quoted as saying that he believes that wages for American workers – including millions veterans – are already “too high.”
And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.
There are 14 Marine Corps leadership traits: justice, judgement, dependability, initiative, decisiveness, tact, integrity, enthusiasm, bearing, unselfishness, courage, knowledge, loyalty, and endurance. There isn’t a single trait from this list that Mr. Trump possesses. Not one.
For almost two years, we’ve had to endure Mr. Trump and his charlantry. Each day he’s showcased for the world his fascist proposals, racist ideas, sexist viewpoints, and anti-American values.
But there’s good news: Our long onerous slog through the bright orange Trump muck is nearly complete. Mr. Trump’s campaign is sputtering on what toxic fumes are left in the tank.
In all likelihood Secretary Hillary Clinton will soon be president-Elect Hillary Clinton, and you, me, our nation, and the world will be better for it.

Trump: 'We should just cancel the election' and declare me the winner
The apparently lighthearted comment falls against the backdrop of Trump's repeated and serious questioning of the legitimacy of the presidential election in recent weeks as he has tumbled in the polls.
Trump has called the election "rigged," argued that the media and establishment politicians are conspiring to sink his campaign and warned supporters that the presidency could be stolen from them due to voter fraud -- instances of which are extremely rare.

The Last Thing My Mother Did Before She Died Was Vote for Hillary Clinton
"How did Hillary do?" Mama asked me on Monday, 15 days before the election.
At 94, bedridden in my home in Raleigh, North Carolina, Mama was going down quickly. ...
Mama's absentee ballot had finally arrived that morning. It was a moment she had been living for since she was a girl: the chance to elect our first female president. She cast her ballot; I sealed it and drove it to the post office. But even by the time I came back, she was slipping in and out of consciousness, confused, and thinking the election had already happened.
Born in 1922, Mother was the rebellious middle daughter of three brainy, beautiful Olesen girls raised in Texas and Oklahoma. When her sisters married and started families, Mama headed for the big city, playing the field and pursuing a career. At 30, she got married (“I’d done everything else!") to an unorthodox choice: a displaced Polish Catholic intellectual. ...
Even at 94 she was still fighting. The idea that a bouffant charlatan like Donald Trump could step onstage, spout outrageous rhetoric, do unthinkable things, and be applauded, infuriated her. "What has been lost in this election," she told me months ago, "is its historic nature. Blacks celebrated Obama's ascendancy, as they should have. Where are the women standing up for Hillary, cheering on her courage, brains and tenacity?" She was right.
This Monday afternoon, when I returned from the post office, receipt in hand, I stepped into the bedroom where Mama was barely hanging on.
"Did Hillary make it?" she asked once more, her words trailing, her voice almost inaudible. Looking at the fading light in her eyes, as her boney hand stretched out from her hospice bed, I considered how to respond. Do I tell her the truth? Hillary's poll numbers are looking positive, but the election is not in the bag.
"Yes, Mama," I told her. "Hillary made it."
