    Really? First, there was no debate. That was political posturing with a moderator. Second, this is no more of a trainwreck for trump than anything else he has done in his entire campaign is a trainwreck, even though there is a substantial basket of deplorables who seem to buy it. Third, HRC looked awful at times, truly awful. She is every bit as despicable, albeit in very different ways, than Trump. And anyone who cant see that makes me laugh. In my mind, she is the better alternative, but I reach that conclusion reluctantly and feel disgusted that it is where I find myself.
    PLesa excuse the tpyos.

          Ha. You are clearly dissembling now. Everyone here knows you are incapable of laughter!

            I guess you're LOLing at me then. I'm sure you have an argument that makes a somewhat compelling case that Clinton is just as despicable as Trump. But I LOL at people who watched the debate and think so. C'mon, inviting Bill's alleged assault victims AND the girl who was raped by Clinton's client? And then introducing them after his weak apology for his own alleged assaults? What, were Lewinski and the ghosts of all the Clinton's murders not available?

            Trump is a despicable human being who has no business even contemplating national office. Clinton is a politician and does things politicians do, like lie and do other ethically questionable things. But bad as Trump?!? Um, no.

Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

              They're still under a gag order from the multi-million dollar settlement.

              Try to keep up.

                If you assess the candidates based on those very limited issues and data points then you are not paying close attention and you can satisfy yourself pretty much however you want. Clinton is very polished compared to Trump, but she is despicable in a different way.

                And it isn't out loud. More of a little internal chuckle.

                    Until I hear that cogent argument of yours, I guess I'll remain content satisfying myself with very limited data points...

                      If for no other reason her dissembling on emails after the fact of her purposeful and knowing decision to ignore government email rules/regulations, constitute reprehensible conduct. There's more of course. But you know the facts as well as I do, and likely better.

                          "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                            That whole 'basket of deplorables" episode is further reasoning. She is horrible.

                            For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                            Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                              Exactly. She is replete with despicables.

                              I wonder why nobody worries, given her sloppiness in adhering to security protocol, why no worries about Bill sleeping around with bimbos has not been mentioned (His current lover is nicknamed the Rabbit). History is littered with lovers being told state secrets.

                              Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

                                I don't understand how anyone can vote for either candidate. I'll write in a clown before I vote for either of them. I wish more people would vote third party just to give the finger to both the DNC and RNC.

                                I wish the primary elections all happened at the same time. All states should have primaries at the same time so we get all the candidates on the ballot in all states.
