She still wins by over 100 more. Then again, May in the UK was found to be one point more 'principled', being appointed and coronated by only 199 MPs, while millions voted for the alternative. So, whether this has anything to do with democracy I'm not sure.

The forum's still open for debate, which includes debate about the election, but frankly most of these threads aren't "let's have a discussion", they're just people stating their opinions very forcefully.

So?

As per your own quote, this is supposed to be a debate forum, not source material for /r/forwardsfromgrandma. The low-effort post-truth posts were impeding the forum's proper functioning.

I wrote an op-ed about this election from the view of someone on the spectrum: http://wrongplanet.net/important-electi ... -autistic/

And when people post "their opinions very forcefully", my guess is they're expecting a debate----and, whether they are or not, they usually GET one. How is that "impeding the forum's proper functioning"?

It seems, instead, that you, personally, think people are wrong for saying things the way they want.

Why don't we get his emails, or any information at all that he keeps behind one locked gaudy door... I'm so allergic to hypocrisy, capitalism doesn't even create any products to wash it away...

If the law was to be involved why not investigate him for not paying his employees http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/poli ... /85297274/ - or his links to the mafia http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/ ... ime-213910 - or his death threat, or even his incestual desires, which, it seems, might be contravene some statutes as it happens...

Why is this one called "I Hate Hillary Megathread" when the other one is just called "Donald Trump Megathread?" Seems biased...

I think that people may have a special hate for Hillary Clinton because she claims to be different and to be on the side of women but she is really just like all the men that we are voting to get out of office.

Probably cause it's a waste of time. It's common sense that he would have a horrible record.

Donald Trump's evil is more obvious than Hillary Clinton's. Therefore, it is a waste of time to expose him. It should be common sense not to vote for Donald Trump. Hillary Clinton is better at acting like the "good guy", therefore you need to expose her otherwise, she'll just keep wearing that good guy badge while she murders women and children.

My prediction is: when the election is done, it'll be leaked that Assange had been hired by either Trump, or Russian intelligence, in order to sink the Clinton campaign.

Her health seems to be poor and I don't like her stance on life. If I were American, I'd vote Trump because he's Pro-Life.
