Thanks man...Just finished the Marco Polo Netflix series, and that was the first thing to mind. My recollections of World History is vague at best. Was in too big a hurry to look it up.

What's more important than the presidency is the Senate and h.o.r. Everyone should vote when these elections come up as these are where laws are actually passed.

Wrong again, what is THE MOST important is who is appointing the judges to the SCOTUS. Sure congress is passing laws but SCOTUS is now legislating and re-writing said laws from the bench. There will be up to 4 new judges appointed this go around. So basically, if Hillbittch is elected President, you can kiss this country and your guns goodbye!!

I agree 100% with you, but the future SCOTUS selections are just as, if not more important. Laws are often ambiguous and it makes a big difference to the American people on who is interpreting those laws.

Now we are having fun. Let's take a look at Hillary Clinton:
1. Hillary Clinton is a Liar. Proven and verifiable.
2. Hillary Clinton was MIA when the 3AM phone call from Benghazi
3. As and attorney Hillary Clinton defended a child rapist and laughed
about it. if you are unaware of this read up.
4. Hillary Clinton has accepted millions of dollars from foreign
governments.
5. Hillary Clinton is endorsed by Barack Obama, the worst president in
modern history.

So, Donald Trump has had a few marriages go south. All of his kids seem to be well adjusted and I don't see the ex wives trying to stab him in the back. Appears to have managed these well. Probably half of the people I know have had at least one divorce. Need more than a young wife to offset Hillary's lack of character and her condescending approach to the American public.

Now what WILL probably happen is a whole $hitload of voter fraud because the damn courts keep ruling against voter ID requirements saying it is a form of voter suppression. Total BS. That's where they will steal the election thanks to groups like ACORN and it's successor organizations. And if we can't get immigration under control, the dem's will be guaranteed an impenetrable voting block for ever and ever.
But, but, but, I can't afford to have an ID. Wait, I have to have an ID to cash a check, drive a car, use a credit card, but not vote??????

Discrimination I say......

bashing Trump for marrying a trophy wife is pure jealousy.........bottom line is over 50% of the public is divorced........many remarried. AND over 50% of the married people cheat............it's simple facts. That is why Bill got away with BJ's in the oval office..........but I digress.

Trump was not my first choice by a long shot.
But I will rally behind him because we absolutely need to appoint justices that understand the constitution in the supreme law of the land.

Anti-Trump does not = Pro-Hillary

I am not anti-Trump, I think Trump has come a long way during this process, and I think he is 10,000X better than Hillary (which doesnt say much) but still has a long way to go. Anyone can get up and say they will do this, do that, but we have yet to hear HOW this will get done. I look forward to hearing some solutions and not just how bad Hillary is. Anybody that is silly enough to vote for Hillary is going to vote for her no matter what, and no amount of Hillary bashing is going to change that.

What I fear is that during the debates, Trump does nothing but bash Hillary and gets into name calling and does not have any solutions to the problems he is addressing and ends up looking like a fool. I hope I am wrong

X2

I think you have to have a photo ID to sign up for welfare and "food stamps". If so, I'd bet those peeps find a way to get a photo ID. BTW, in my former life, I used to accompany the popo on search warrants on some of my cases and in many cases, when the search was conducted, numerous ID's were found with the same pic, but different last names. Reporting this to the Fed's, i.e. ICE, Border Patrol resulting in a great big yawn. They just weren't interested.

Hell I would high five him. She's hot. Who wouldn't want that?
The Supreme Court is a major player here. Hillary appointees would be a disaster of epic proportions.

If you go back and look at prior campaigns for president, very few have come out with specifics during their campaign, just a platform, what trump is doing is normal politics
