Not to derail this thread, but are you serious?

I'm genuinely interested to know what you find inspiring about her.

As far as I can see, Clinton is a politician in the worst sense of the word.

And if you'll read the article I linked to in my thread about "understanding obama-trump voters" you'll see that there is some compelling research to suggest that the dems will never regain power if they cling to Clinton style policies.

I too am astonished at some of the posts from Walrus. Hillary was all V for Vagina, a potential warhawk, bought and paid for by Muslim countries and big business, on an unprecedented scale, and might as well have had STATUS QUO stamped on her forehead. That still made her better than Trump, but I saw nothing redeeming in her. It was just about who was going to do the least damage, both would have done considerable damage.

Oh, on topic, he didn't take a salary for being president.

I find that hard to believe after seeing this convicing video:

Hooray! :cheers:

One of the reasons I like Trump is because he is not your average politician. And to be honest, after years of growing up with many corrupt politians in Puerto Rico who use the same deceptive tactics as the democrats, I'd rather have an unusual, unpredictable (and potentially dangerous) president over one that would sell America's freedom (of speech) to the highest bidder (like Saudi Arabia)!

Is it the meme or the politically heavy tensions?

He kept Carrier Air Conditioners from moving to Mexico----thus, saving about 1,000 (+/-) jobs.

I agree with the others----Hillary was in no way, shape, or form, "inspirational"! !

Wow I can't believe a lot of people here got upset when Walrus said that Hilary was "ispriational". It feels good to know that I am not the only one who felt suspicious about Hilary's motives. :D

Why is it that the butthurt SJW's don't mention things like that? I mean if they are so "objective" and "accepting" then why don't they bother mention some of the positives about Trump!?

Cuz that would take the focus off of their belly-aching----they want the only thing that people hear, to be "WAAAAAAAH, Trump is soooooo HORRIBLE!!"----and, talking about him saving jobs, doesn't help their case.

I cannot think of anything in particular...except for his admission that being president is 'hard' so much harder than he thought and he doesn't like it, which implies he may rethink his presidency. However if he decided to do something like resign before the 4 years are up then we'd just get Pence so even that wouldn't be 'good'.

Also seems like he is just making the swamp bigger and more closely knit, not 'draining' it like he claimed he'd do. How is it some of his supporters are blind to this?

Then where is his current salary coming from exactly, perhaps a source to confirm this would be appropriate.
