If it were criminal, why were charges not filed? Unlike Trump, HRC had no power to muzzle or fire Comey. But there was definitely some gross incompetence in its handling.

No it was very much hillary who got him elected, Anyone who was not a completely worthless human or clump of grass would of won over him; and the grass would of been in the running
Trump went up against umpteen senior GOP candidates incl 1/2 a dozen former governors and beat them like rented mules, garnering the most votes ever in a Republican primary. Seems there were a lot of completely worthless humans both running against him & voting for him.
There's more evidence to support the conspiracy theory about Obama's secret FEMA concentration camps than there is that Russia had Jack or shit to do with the election.
Stay tuned. It's only getting started & there are an awful lot of links on the chains tying Trump & cronies with shady Russians. Even Flynn's supposed work for Turkey appears to be really a Russian front.
This has been known / suspected for a long time but not confirmed until relatively recently. LBJ decided to not reveal because he learned about it by illegal means
That is irrelevant. The US is a union of states not a mob. Do you think the Senate is a good Idea for a bicameral Congress? Why would that idea not be good for a different branch of government? The whole point is to ensure that the Executive has the interests of a majority of states. There is no national vote. There are 50 different independent elections that Clinton lost a majority. Yes, she won by large margins in a few states but that shouldn't be enough to alienate the other states like Obama did with the 'fly-over' states.
The "half the electorate" statement originally came from you. And suddenly it's irrelevant? Btw, Trumplethinskin tweeted in 2012 that the Electoral College was a disaster for the country when Obama cleaned Romney's clock. But he was only too happy to praise it when it delivered him a win. trumptwitterarchive.com Your statement on the Senate is unclear but implies that you're not aware senators are elected by popular vote, not by an electoral college.
No she wasn't. I didn't consider her to be inspiring but she is experienced & competent.
That is your opinion and half the electorate disagreed with you. I thought she was a joke and still think that.
Fair enough - but the same argument works in her favor. Except of course that she lost the Electoral College despite easily winning the popular vote ( i.e. MORE than 1/2 the electorate)
Sure and everything in the election for Trump was in comparison to Clinton. Clinton was a joke of a candidate as well.
No she wasn't. I didn't consider her to be inspiring but she is experienced & competent.
this is just too hard; I miss my old life
Has he said this or expressed this?
Yup. Recorded during an interview with Reuters. "I loved my previous life. I had so many things going"
"This is more work than in my previous life. I thought it would be easier."
Wouldn't you be happy over this if he resigned? lol what do you want?
The only bad thing about him resigning would be that Pence would become President. Not sure if that'll be better; to replace a confessed pussy-grabber with one who's afraid to be alone with a female other than his wife.
You are really projecting any and every failure it could possibly be. Calm down, there is still many years of Trump ahead of us.
Y'know, I and others were telling people like you to all that fearmongering about Obama was just a load of crap and he never did or said anything close to what Trump has already done or plans to do. That didn't even put in a dent in the amount of vitriol & B.S. that was directed against him.
Did you notice that the Tea Party was called racist?
Government shutdowns aren't "dissent". They come from within the government.
So what if they were called racist? The same has been said about Black Lives Matter.
In what fucking universe did you go to school?
This one. In which you also used the word "distrust"? What exactly convinces you that the GOP ever put any trust in Obama? It wasn't a Dem or an Independent who jumped up in the middle of an address to Congress by shouting "You LIE!!"
Rometty has presided over 20 straight quarters of declining revenue growth.
Since she became CEO in January 2012, revenue has declined more than 26 percent on a trailing 12-month basis compared to the year before she took over, and net income has fallen nearly 27 percent.
Has revenue declined, or has revenue growth declined? For a mature company, declining growth isn't a death knell. Declining revenue is.
The Presidency is not or should not be luck of the draw or a coin toss. The man has demonstrated ZERO integrity during 45 years of being in the public eye and knows nothing about what being President mean despite being close to more than one administration.
Can you imagine the outcry if Obama had said 100 days into the clusterfuck economy that he inherited "this is just too hard; I miss my old life"
A smooth transition into 4 more years of Obama-style nonsense, this time using her genitalia instead of her skin color to shut down dissent.
At least Trump has revived dissent and distrust of the government.
Which fucking universe did you teleport in from last week? The mantra of dissent & distrust has been alive and well for a long time. Did you miss the Iraq War protests against Bush? The Tea Party protests against Obama? The continual threat of GOP government shutdowns incl 1 successful one that lasted 2 weeks in Oct 2013? And Occupy Wall Street went on for over a year during your Rip Van Winkle nap.
"Where was your outrage for the past half century before Trump?" That long ago, I was still a foreigner. And I had plenty of outrage then, now and in-between.
" I didn't become a Republican, I have become an Independent" If you've been looking at the political landscape of the past several decades and drawing the conclusion that it's the *Democrats* who've become "nuttier & nastier*, I have to question your judgment. An independent who doesn't vote? That's truly independent, I guess. You do know that the ballot had much more than just Trump & Clinton on it, right?
"First, the sky didn't fall with Trump" Tell that to the people caught in his fuckup of an immigration ban; who knows just what a disaster that would have produced if the courts hadn't shut it down. As if traveling by air isn't stressful enough.
"No, I was never going to vote for Clinton: she proved that she was an evil b*tch when she ran against Obama (who I voted for)" "the Democratic party and its supporters have become even nuttier and nastier" Wait a minute - you voted for Obama in 2008 and you think that it's the DEMS who've become "nuttier & nastier"? I can believe what I'm reading.
That is hindsight 20/20. no one knew what would happen.
"Nobody knew it would all be so complicated!" - Donald Trump. Everyone with a clue knew.
Also, from what I understand it is as much as congress as it is the executive as to why he doesn't have a full cabinet.
Yes, many have to be approved but they have to be nominated first, which hasn't been done for the very vast majority. And there are hundreds, possibly over a thousand positions that don't need Senate confirmation.
Hindsight 20/20 aside, we'll find out when his term is over.
His transition team still has not filled or nominated replacements for a several hundred important positions, the Obama people held over are either quitting or being fired when they refuse to do what is being demanded of them and Jared is already way over his head.
"Honeybuns, the election is over" Does Ivanka know you're stealing her best line? Trumplethinskin mentions at every opportunity how amazing it was that he won such a rough-and-tough difficult election by his definition of a landslide. The arrogant asshole stood in front of the CIA wall of stars honoring their dead and rambled on about who voted for him & how much the media hates him.
"All that got you was that independents like myself got thoroughly pissed off and stayed home" Don't you live in California? You were planning to vote for Clinton? Before you answer yes to that 2nd question, refer to the following quote: "You can stop the pretense and the lying"
"Thanks to Trump, we now have a less-expensive form of universal healthcare that"
No, you don't. It's not yet passed the Senate and even if it becomes law, its greatest achievement will be to throw millions under the bus - and then back up over them a few times. The man's as ignorant a stack of bricks and is the poster child for hypocrisy. Go to trumptwitterarchive.com to see what he had to say about the electoral college, Syria, etc and what he's saying now
Bitch, please. Hillary won her Senate seat in New York state by going out to meet the little people, showing up at country fairs on weekends and introducing herself and explaining what she hoped to accomplish. The GOP whine continually about how Dems & liberals pander to the elite and ignore the "Real Americans" but when a Dem does it & wins, it's evil

"They also didn't force Hillary to run a private email server for years"
There's a long list of Republicans who've run private e-mail servers but they were all very quick to condemn HRC for doing it too.
In exactly what way was Nixon a traitor, as opposed to a power mad egomaniac?

"Nutty & nasty" - ok, you show your nasty nuts and I'll show mine.
You go first.

" Bozo the Clown would have been a better choice"
That's exactly who got elected. How's he doing so far?
With what they had on the table as an alternative, it shouldn't really be surprising.
Now explain Trump's victory.
