That's fine, because everyone who has real perspective rolled their eyes when you called Hillary sane.

My comment is referring to the fact that in the Huskerboard poll, there are 18 PEOPLE who said they'd vote for Hillary Clinton if the election were held today... Talk about dipsh*ttery at its finest. Well, I see voting for either Trump or Hillary as that way. Now, typically I don't use those terms when discussing other people's views on here. However, well...... However you choose to see it, there are a lot of great reasons to vote for Trump, even while acknowledging his shortcomings (none of which ought to be deal breakers). That's not opinion, that's fact. However, I've heard no one ever tell me anything positive that could possibly come out of a Hillary presidency. There are zero reasons to vote for her. Zero. And that's before we consider the fact that she is a criminal. Like I said, if people choose to look into Johnson and vote for him, I can definitely understand that. But if someone wants to vote for Hillary, be prepared to come under heavy scrutiny based on the stakes that are presented.

Nobody on this board wants to talk about Trump having a strong moment lol In other news, how is it that Hillary is being allowed to run for President? Even more than that, how is she not rotting in a jail cell? I agree. I'm not a huge Trump fan, but it's laughable that many come here to bash him non-stop while hardly saying a word about Hillary. They both are not ideal candidates and have flaws, but many of Trump's flaws stem from his mouth/words, while her flaws are from her actions/policies. Oh absolutely. I can understand why someone wouldn't want to vote for Trump, though I might disagree with them on certain issues. But there is no conceivable reason or justification for voting for Hillary Rodham Clinton. Doing so is enabling corruption, greed, globalism, and yes, evil, in our government. If Hillary indeed is the Democratic nominee, this presidential race ought to be between 2 people - Trump and Gary Johnson. I can understand voting for Johnson. But good Lord, people, DON'T VOTE FOR HILLARY!!!

The man isn't even President yet. Not to mention, you expect him to convince the NRA to budge in 1 meeting? That's super unrealistic, don't you think?... If anything, he ought to get some props as a dedicated gun rights supporter for being open-minded enough to consider restrictions which so many people on this board have been arguing for.

LOL! You can always tell who watches & reads mainstream media.

To be fair to him without any bias whatsoever, he is extremely frugal on a lot of his buildings and investments. He has a great reputation for building projects well under budget (many times ahead of schedule). I was watching a video of one of my business mentors (Grant Cardone) and he was in Trump Tower marveling at how nice the place looked and how cheaply he had it built. (Cue the comments about how he doesn't pay his workers so it's all an illusion)

208k on hats? Is he planning on sending one to each household in America or something? To be fair, he sells them for $30, so that partially funds his campaign. He probably bought 100k hats, so he's making pure profit. Which I actually really like that strategy, though others might not.

When the game turned into a wrestling match instead of basketball, that's when the tide turned in favor of the Cavs. And Curry obviously was not himself all series, whether that had to do with being injured or getting hugged all game to keep him from getting open or just not being mentally right... Probably a combination of all of those. Credit to the Cavs & Lebron - Especially Kyrie Irving, because he was an animal all series, and hit the game winner so Bron Bron wouldn't have to.

I agree that people have to be cognizant of those things, but to be fair, it's hard to defeat an enemy that your "leaders" refuse to acknowledge. The enemy is radical Islamic terrorism. Hopefully people in 2016 will understand that not all Muslims are bad people. Ameer Abdullah, Muhammad Ali, Malcolm X, etc. Kind of set the stage for that idea. Maybe you should watch The President's press conference from last week... might get you a little better informed. You mean the one that he got scrutinized heavily for? By both Democrats and Republicans? I've seen it, and while his ability to be a really smooth and affluent speaker makes him sound good, he's way off base.

I choose none of the above. And it doesn't have to be one or the other. That's just the way Obama would have it.

I certainly agree with the that, I'm just not sure it's more beneficial to focus on that than the actual issue. Can you imagine if the reaction to something awful a Christian did was "hey, Muslims can be shitheads too!". While that's certainly true, it wouldn't be helpful in understanding the actual processes that led to the heinous act. I agree 100%. Focusing on the religion of a "psycho" may help determine some of the "superficial" aspects like "who he targets" and "who he claims allegiance to" but it doesn't solve the real issue of how can a person be so disconnected. Brings us all the way back, why does it matter if a terrorist is called Muslim or not? Regarding the bolded: if Muslims made up the majority of the population and wanted to keep Christians out of the country and put FBI agents in churches, I think it would get the same reaction, and rightfully so. If a large portion of Christians were radical, i think it would be justified. This is coming from a Christian.

Article here Man... He sure didn't run the primary like he wanted to finish second... I will say this, Trump has a few key issues in his platform that he's very firm and passionate about, but there are a lot of surrounding issues that he is not extremely knowledgeable at this point in time. I believe he's got the ability and lack of quality competition set out for him to win the general election in a landslide, but he's going to have to really dig in and learn a lot, develop stances and strategies on issues, and not waiver back and forth anymore. I think a lot of the waivering on some of the issues are because he doesn't have a strong opinion on a lot of them and therefore hasn't established his viewpoint yet. He has a lot of work to do, and a lot of damage control as well with putting his foot in his mouth way too much. We will see what happens.

It's not the reason why we're headed to game 7, but the league and the refs are definitely helping the Cavs along...

Yes, and I'm not sure how you could interpret it any other way... Bringing power back to the state level and privatizing health care... Are you trying to prove me right?

Agree 100%. Trump must be stopped. I have no words for the stupidity of this comment. I know. That's what makes it scary. No, what makes it scary is that Hillary is the one that will continue to balloon the government until we live in a tyrannical socialism and Trump wants the scope of the federal government greatly decreased. What is also even more scary is that people would rather believe a ton of media and political propaganda that makes them believe it's the other way around.

Seriously, you still don't understand what I am asking? This thread is about gun control, about something needing to be done (as in new laws). What NEW law would prevent this from happening, prevent this guy from getting a gun? NOTHING WOULD HAVE! Well considering he was on a terrorist watch list and still was able to buy a gun a week before he shot the club up, this comment is completely off base.

I can see Trump as a very polarizing figure who people either love or love to hate, but the idea that there are people so uninformed that they'd vote for Hillary is seriously mind-boggling. I don't trust any polls, especially 5 months before the election, but wow...

And here I thought our freedoms that made us free. It was being able to own anything we want, all along! Wait, that's not true. We can own many things, but none of them are treated as sacred constitutional protections. Except guns. So our ability to own this one kind of product in particular. That's the key to our ever-loving freedom. America! It was said jokingly earlier in this thread, but in a very real sense. Don't make anyone mad in this country. They'll shoot you. That crackling of eggshells beneath your feet is the sweet tune of liberty, friend! This is extremely off base. Absolutely wrong, and I agree with huskerfan2000 100% on this one. Here is the one overwhelming idea that the genius men who framed our constitution intended, that SO MANY people today do not understand and dismiss: The government should fear the citizens of the country, NOT the other way around. People fearing the government means that the government has exceeded its intended scope, and we are a few steps away from a tyranny in America. It's scary stuff when you really think about it...

To be fair, I, like you, am vehemently against any attempts to get rid of or severely hinder the 2nd amendment. What a lot of people lose sight of (which I did for a long time as well) is that there are very few people who are advocating that people turn in their weapons. And the ones who are advocating that ought to know that it's not feasible and would lead to mass bloodshed across the country. BUT, as many have said already, it's WAY too easy to obtain a weapon right now, and something needs to be done about that (within reason and the confines of common sense).

Not going to happen, but if it did, I'd be all in on Rand Paul.

All this talk of how wonderful president Obama is has me pretty much floored and confused about what you all feel the role of the government should be, so I'll just leave this here and wait... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRLcGqtzv2E
