    One of the real concerns about Trump is probably that he might reverse, disrupt or disclose long term strategic plans that have bridged several administrations, involving both political parties.

    I would vote for a fire hydrant over 95% of Congress too. And I would campaign for a fire hydrant over hiillary.

    A nice find. Now if only it was registered in every state, it would probably be a big winner.

    I see it as Trump bringing an end to U.S. participation in these basket case countries wars. It'll become the UN's and wannabees problems. Too costly, better off playing the money game (Trump's strong suit).

  5. Trump is not an ideal choice but the idea he would start WW III in a fit of anger is far-fetched. Trump may use colorful or even careless language, but he is very measured when it comes to using the military or getting us mired in more quagmires. Hillary is the one who seems to want to confront the Russians everywhere. Superpowers should give each other plenty of elbow room, something Trump seems to understand. It's why the republican neo-con wing despises him so fervently.

    Hillary's judgment has repeatedly been demonstrated to be terrible, whether it was in overthrowing Libya or lying about the Benghazi attacks or her cavalier disregard of security rules and the inevitable Clinton coverup.

    You, nor anyone else including his closest advisers, have any idea whatsoever how he would react to a confrontation. And you are underestimating the amount of damage that can be caused by an irrational person in control of our armed forces. The constitution has not provided for anyone to say 'No!' to the commander in chief.

    I urge you to wise up and vote for the fire hydrant.

    Note: The Arizona Republic, for the first time in history, endorses a democrat for president, asking "Whose hand do you want on the nuclear button?"

    voting for hillary is safer than voting for trump?
    how the hell can you make that assessment
    did you see what she did to the libya and the middle east.
    She created ISiS, she armed terrorists.

    Her judgement is far worse than a fire hydrants.
    Plus what her sup ct will do for our constitutional rights is far gravely serious.
    As we speak they are giving the internet away so we lose are freedom of speech to a large extent.


    Trump is a guess. Hillary is assured destruction.

    The neocons have all turned to Hillary precisely because she'll give em the wars they want. And that they don't believe Trump will give them. So how is Trump worse?

    So lindq is selling the goldwater mushroom cloud commercial. Trump just might go nuke and blow up the world. Nevertrumpers are left with that questionable assertion because how else can they sell their position? They can't very well tell the truth that Trump won't give them the wars they want.

    For a person who think he's informed on the topic, were you aware Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, and ranking Democrats want a no-fly zone in Syria, enforced by America? So Russian jets are shot down by NATO?

  10. Trump is not a guess. He's an ignorant asshole. Perfect for dumb righties like you that think Clinton created ISIS. That's Trump levels of stupidity.
