I'm not fan of Mr. Trump, but let's call this Trump-is-a-puppet-for-the-Kremlin for what it is... rehashed McCarthyism.

That's not what it is.

I don't know if it's been mentioned in the thread, but I've read a few places that Donald can take criticism in a lot of areas, but not when it comes to any implication that he is not as wealthy as he claims. I noticed Hillary hit that as one of the three things he might be hiding, and Donald took the bait.

If I were Hillary, as soon as any subject gets uncomfortable, I'd segue to his personal net worth.

Don't forget small hands criticism.

The "short-fingered vulgarian" line first appeared in print in 1988, when Carter and Kurt Andersen were running "Spy," a satirical magazine.

"To this day, I receive the occasional envelope from Trump," Carter wrote last November. "There is always a photo of him — generally a tear sheet from a magazine. On all of them he has circled his hand in gold Sharpie in a valiant effort to highlight the length of his fingers. I almost feel sorry for the poor fellow because, to me, the fingers still look abnormally stubby."

Some on the fence Trump voters simply won't vote. It's not about switching to Hillary, it's getting the motivation to vote for Trump at all. The guy's a complete disaster.

I actually heard the opposite.

Just listening to the radio as I was driving to lunch and back they referenced this Michael Moore tweet:

It's over. Trump, the egoist, the racist, the narcissist, the liar, "won." We all lost. His numbers will go up. She told the truth. So what.

Basically, they are saying that while Hillary was OK, she didn't really do anything to fire up the Democrats. Trumps supporters are crazy, but he gets them going and they are ready to vote. Meanwhile, Hillary has a lot of folks thinking that she is the least worst option. But she doesn't have a lot of people who love her and want to vote for her.

They took it a step further and even discussed if maybe she shouldn't up the pressure as far as how bad a president Trump would be - saying that she might have more luck getting people excited to vote against Trump than she will getting people to vote for her.

Honestly makes sense to me.

I've made it clear from the beginning that I'm not interested in voting for either of these two. While I don't want Trump to win, I have to admit that it doesn't make me as sad as I thought it would to hear that Clinton may lose. Of course, that's when I focus on whether or not she wins or loses and don't think about the fact that her losing means Donald has won.

That's not what it is.

Sen. Harry Reid agrees with you.

Yeah, my vote wasn't changed from one idiot to the other. In fact, my vote hasn't changed from the beginning. #FeelTheJohnson I just caught part of the debate because I was wondering how the twitter streaming thing was going to work. It was kind cool watching the debate and seeing all the dumb comments people were making about it realtime. The networks need to put up tweets in realtime as well before people finally stop paying the cable bill. Of course, maybe it is too late.

Yeah, you're guy isn't an idiot in his own right at all. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXhR41lsEJY

Michael Moore is full of crap. I don't understand why he keeps saying Trump will win. I will be surprised if it is close at all. Sadly, we are gonna have to deal with Hillary for hopefully only 4 years, because I just don't think enough people are feeling the Johnson.

Moore is trying to motivate recalcitrant democrats to vote out of fear.

Yeah. He's trying out reverse psychology of some sorts. I just don't think his little mind game will motivate many.

I just think he's trying to energize people to get out and do something for Hillary. Some of his tweets after that one are comments like:

If u just turn off the TV right now and do nothing, you've just elected Donald Trump. Do something! Plan what you're going to do tomorrow.

Pro-Hillary gloaters doing end-zone dance again when still on 50-yd line. U MUST get it in your head TRUMP IS GONNA WIN and act accordingly!

Johnson is a weirdo with absolutely no understanding of foreign policy. I say this as someone who has voted third party before, and was at one-time Libertarian, their platform isn't viable at all.

First, the DNC's email gets hacked. Now their cell phones have been hacked?

FBI investigating possible hack of Democratic Party staffer cell phones

The FBI has asked to examine the cell phones of a small number Democratic Party staffers as it investigates a possible hack, law enforcement and Democratic sources told CNN Tuesday.


The development comes on the same day Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson told lawmakers that 18 states have asked for help in warding off cyberattacks on their electronic voting systems.


Law enforcement officials have reached out to the staffers individually about "imaging" their phones to search for evidence of hacking, such as malware. Investigators are still probing whether this attempted hack is part of the original breach of Democratic National Committee emails -- which is widely thought to be the work of the Russian government -- or a new hacking attempt.

The DNC is a bunch of dumbasses... They should buy iPhones.

Probably some super battery for the exoskeleton she was wearing to keep from collapsing. Why do you think she wears pantsuits all the time?

She's more machine than human.
