Withdraw my application to re-join the Navy and probably move to Europe. No, I'm not kidding. There's no way in hell that I would have that man be my commander-in-chief. That's what Alec Baldwin has said for 15 years. He's still here. | ||

He has broad electoral appeal, in part because he is an asshole. There are these two groups you need to win to be president. Blacks and women. Hispanics help too. Trump cannot win those groups. | ||

I think that if her persona was mixed with Kasich's pragmatism (as opposed to the off-the-wall, hyperbolic rhetoric she uses), the Republican's would have a pretty great candidate. | ||

I'm no fan of Bush, but realistically there was no way a president would have prevented 9/11. It was the result of interagency fuckups more than anything, and it's not like Gore or Nader or anyone would have untangled those because they're too entrenched. Edit: Oh lord Carson just said we shouldn't have withdrawn from Iraq. | ||
