The Donald-thread

[NineBerry]

Trump sees a lot of things no one else can see. Maybe he should go into the prophet business instead of politics.

That gold star father Kahn turned out to be a radical sharia law supporter...... Oh, and he's an immigration lawyer specializing in the controversial buy your way in visa, something trump would probably try and end. Trump should keep up the attacks because kahn is a poster child for muslims we should NOT let in.

And his son died even for the likes of you.

A short biography of Khan in the journal article says that he is the author of “In Defense of OPEC” and “Legal Index of the Quran.” It also lists that he is the co-founder of Journal of Contemporary Issues in Muslim Law.


Yup, not a moderate.

I think he meant from a reputable source.

The information given in the article actually seems to be okay. How one gets from the facts in the article to the assessment made by Tyrannical is beyond me however (I suppose drugs or drinking a lot of the Brown Aid).

Doesn't every president need to know why they cannot (or can) be used in given circumstances?

Most presidential candidates already know. That's because they already have experience in government. And they aren't a reality tv circus clown.

We have been witness to Donald Trump’s hostility toward anyone who is at all critical of him, even if it is only to the extent of asking him questions, or accurately quoting him. This has morphed into something more with reports that the live feed cables from MSNBC and CNN were tampered with during a Trump event.

More ominously, Donald Trump wants to be able to take legal action against those he thinks are unkind in their reporting. Friday in Texas, Trump revealed his utter disdain for the First Amendment’s freedom of the press, proclaiming that he’s “gonna open up our libel laws so when they write purposely negative and horrible and false articles, we can sue them and win lots of money.”

He complained to the crowd, as he sold them his own pack of lies, “I think the media is among the most dishonest groups of people I’ve ever met. They’re terrible.”

That’s some claim coming from one of the 21st century’s foremost liars. The solution to people reporting unwelcome facts about him, Trump says, is to tear up the First Amendment and start suing the media silly. This claim earned him thunderous applause. Nobody hates critics of Donald Trump more than Donald Trump than his cultists.

Yes, but the Merkins do it without trying.

For Trump the world seems to have taken on the surreal, dreamlike character typical of someone overly reliant on pharmacological remedies to combat sleep deprivation. For fucksake don't give the launch codes until he's had about a month of good sleep. "The Spiders are coming! The Spiders are coming! Go to DEFCON 1! Fire everything we have!!"

During a 33-year career at the Central Intelligence Agency, I served presidents of both parties — three Republicans and three Democrats. I was at President George W. Bush’s side when we were attacked on Sept. 11; as deputy director of the agency, I was with President Obama when we killed Osama bin Laden in 2011.

I am neither a registered Democrat nor a registered Republican. In my 40 years of voting, I have pulled the lever for candidates of both parties. As a government official, I have always been silent about my preference for president.

No longer. On Nov. 8, I will vote for Hillary Clinton. Between now and then, I will do everything I can to ensure that she is elected as our 45th president.

Two strongly held beliefs have brought me to this decision. First, Mrs. Clinton is highly qualified to be commander in chief. I trust she will deliver on the most important duty of a president — keeping our nation safe. Second, Donald J. Trump is not only unqualified for the job, but he may well pose a threat to our national security.
