It is important to be true to oneself, to what one is. I, for example, am Spartacus.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

All America has left from a proud democratic history is the politics of hate...

Tricksy Marxist revisionist, politics has always been nasty business. But give it a hundred years and we'll engineer perfect conformity from the womb. :crumple:

No need to ad hom the US voters. Their votes do it for them.

Yeah, lol' aren't the yanks stupid. How many weak countries would of had their borders invaded by their more powerful neighbours if America wasn't around to keep the peace? Take your teenage edgelord naivety and shove it where the sun don't shine. The USA's very existence has mostly made the world a better place, unlike a thousand pinko commie countries will ever do. Yes they have made mistakes and sometimes those mistakes were predicated on greed and power. Though a world without the United States would be a far worse world than the one we live in today.

I'm glad you agree. When the best candidates to make it into the finals for POTUS by popular vote are a vainglorious clown and a Wall Street apparatchik it isn't too difficult to come to that conclusion, though, is it now? So don't feel too pleased with yourself. Millions of people have come to the same one before you.

You might have a case if he was facing Bernie Sanders but he isn't. He is facing the most crocked monster on the planet in Hillary, she should have been locked up long ago.
locked up? if power lust were to be classified as a lockable mental disease, you'd have to build a slew of new asylums to lock up all politicians. Granted, hers is greater than most, but she's still high functional, and doesn't seem to warrant locking up

The one that should be locked away in a safe place for his own good is Trump.

Good question. How many?

Huh -- guy serves papers on the Democratic National Comittee, found dead....

A guy was about to testify against the clintons, and he died by crushing his own throat, accidentailly....

Democratic staffer Seth Conrad Rich was murdered in an affluent neighborhood, and the killer took nothing from him, leaving his wallet, money, etc. --
