If he can go a whole term (that will be a miracle) without finding a new country to attack and destroy then that will put him a cut above the rest in modern history. As for health care and immigration, how is that any of the rest of the planet's business? Japan has the strictest immigration laws in the world. I don't think it allows any muslims in, and mentions them specifically. Oooh. How RACIST. Why aren't the SJWs jumping up and down about that?? I bet they all drive around in Japanese cars. SJWs surpass, or at least equal, kristians in the hypocrisy department.
Perhaps those SJWs should consider their own bigotry for wanting a candidate to win just because of her gender. How quaintly archaic.
I couldn't see the point of the video, but then I couldn't give a crap about the gender of politicians. People in civilised countries don't.
Btw, why don't you just link to the youtube version instead of those virus-infested bs links you post?
How do we fix the world, veg? Serious question.
Depends on how you define 'fix'. I'm sure arms manufacturers are perfectly happy with the way the world is-- full of gullible idiots who seriously believe that the military blows up foreign countries (countries that many of them have probably never even heard of) in order to preserve some vague and undefined concept they call 'freedom'. How these two things are connected is anyone's guess, so don't even think about it. Thinking is disrespectful to 'heroes'.
As far as I can tell most people love war. The world is in excellent shape as far as they are concerned.
I'm not so sure it's war they love, I think it's more the idea of punishment. I have noticed that in many people the Punishment ' instinct is very strong. Practical solutions for the world's problems are trashed ideas if it means that perceived wrong doings go unpunished. You could tell people that they would be showered with wealth and prosperity if they would let a perceived wrong go unpunished and they still would not care about their own best interest. They want vengeance above all else.

Well, I know you weren't asking me, but the simple answer is don't leave politics to people who care about politics.
lol... seems to me all the good people tread a little too softly on this Earth. They are the only ones who know ya can't reason with fools.

Punished for what? And I think you give them too much credit for even thinking about it that 'deeply'.

I don't think they even know this about themselves...it's just my observation. The reason why I think they don't particularly like war is because there is a chance the enemy will be bigger and stronger or more clever.

Right...I know this is your perception which helps you justify your wrong doing. But is it the truth?

And...again...do you want for anything? If you are starving on the streets, then I would say thelse "lazy deadbeats" who you think are "taking all you money" are putting a hardship on you. On the other hand...if you have a home, food on the table, a car, a TV, a cell phone, etc. Then I would say you are merely being an petty evil thinker who will soon know what karma is all about by the choices you have made.

Bet on it. Since the sixties, people work for the luxuries.
This is why advertisers spend $billions, and look at the unnecessary crap they're selling.

:lol:

Joining with your energy as indicated by the quotes, you’re quite the clever little snot, aren’t you.
And judging by your other postings, quite the judge of the world.
Quite.

You do realize that during the Obama administration, the government actively promoted food stamp use. Food stamps used to be a helping hand. Now, it's a way of life. To snottily suggest that pointing this out, is to advocate misery for people, is dishonest. You should be ashamed.

If you think it's broken then first, fix yourself.
The world is in you. You are not in the world.

I’d say an old-timer like Trump, who has already made it and who surrounds himself with beauty, who gets into politics for the first time is, as a rule, more trustworthy and honest than some ambitious little shit seeking wealth and fame via politics, or some female crook who is beholden to sketchy special interests via the acceptance of donations laundered through a foundation that spent the bulk on administrative costs.

In addition to term limits for politicians, in a philosophical sense, I’d also say that on the basis of observation, those who begin a chain of reasoning based on belief rather than observation, no matter how sound the reasoning, are idiots.

The reason is illustrated by Doc’s point that reliance on belief overrides reality when summoning memory, and memory is required to plot a responsible course through life for others, via government, which is influenced by politics. That doesn’t require a helping hand from government to figure out.

The world would be better off with fewer idiots. Ergo, in the quest to reduce idiocy in the world, and keeping in mind that you pay for what you get, freely dispensed advice. If interested in philosophy and not just pushing a belief, begin with an examination of what “one” calls, intellectual integrity.

Quite.

AS: this is what Republicans do... you are trying to "morality shame" but you cant...because you can't shame something that is good. Shame only works on 'bad".
I quite enioy being good. Being good is liberating. Gone are the shackles of trying to see who's got something I don't. There is no thought of jealousy, pettiness, greed or ego. With morality I can simply enjoy life , free from the shackles of devising the next plan to harm humanity.

W: You do realize that during the Obama administration, the government actively promoted food stamp use. Food stamps used to be a helping hand. Now, it's a way of life. To snottily suggest that pointing this out, is to advocate misery for people, is dishonest. You should be ashamed.

AS: There you go again. Worrying about who got something you didn't. Is this any way to live life? Let it go. Food stamps cost is a pittance compared to the entire government waste. If you want to save government the big bucks...start rallying against corporate welfare! Lol...petty minds Crack me up.
And another thing. Don't be stupid. Look into what the future is likely to bring. There is sure to be a new system, one that is based on socialism, and it won't be a poor system. Why? Because the people demand it and the leaders can breathe easy when people are fed, clothed and privy to the niceties of life. With kindness comes "good". With "good" comes civilized behavior. No Shame there.
However, you keep being petty and you'll see a dystopia like no other...and why exactly? Because you didn't want a poor person to get a free food voucher. Really? Lol...quite laughable.

I thought this American politics? Given he doesn't pay his taxes and games the system and pillories the banks whilst making a fortune out of their scams and then puts those same bankers in charge I'd say trustworthy and honest stretching it a little.
The world would be better off with fewer idiots. ...
So why put one in charge?

Ummm, I think food has always been a 'way of life'. A way of living actually. What a little fascist fuck. Begrudging people 'food stamps', which I imagine would be extremely humiliating to use. Do you have to count them out at the checkout? How much money do you think poor people have left for food after paying power and rent (or do you consider those luxuries too?), let alone for any for all those things you so imaginatively listed? You should cease your little fantasies about poor people. It will make you blind.
At the same time you don't mind a great useless bloated oaf flaunting his billions--which he pays NO tax on, making him nothing but a greedy bludger himself-- and spending the money he's stolen from the taxpayer on tasteless gold taps, faux Louis XIV interiors, and every other hideous vulgarity you can think of, yet you can't stand the thought of poor black people eating (and don't deny it. Everyone knows that's the 'reasoning' behind every fascist American KKKristian). Btw. I imagine you are probably past working age, bludging off the taxpayer every pension day, spending taxpayer money on frivolous luxuries like computer and internet access.

I have to say that the woman seems more convincing than Trump. I know I'm not supposed to think that. But the male "clinton" seems far less convincing than Hilary ever did.

I didn't see the original debate. In this one I thought the woman was a total a-hole, constantly interrupting and shouting, basically being insufferable, portraying all issues as black and white. Horrible. I definitely preferred the man in that debate.

Anyone who shouts and interrupts constantly and doesn't listen is not to be trusted because those tactics are intended to prevent the kind of calm debate that would expose them.
