This whole "MSM conspiracy" was invoked in 2012 to explain away the fact that Romney was crashing. What's next, you going to point me to some poll "corrections"?
Trump has lost. If he continues the trend he's in right now, it could very well lead to a landslide victory for Clinton, but one way or another, when you wake up the morning of November 9th, Hillary Rodham Clinton will be President Elect. And I'm sure you've already got your "MSM/Establishment" conspiracy theories ready, and there'll be four endless years of bitching and sniveling, and refusing to admit that Donald Trump was the worst mistake the GOP made since Barry Goldwater.
The only poll that showed that was the LA Times poll, which is a bit notorious because it polls the same people at each iteration. All the other polls, as fivethirtyeight.com show, always showed Clinton ahead. Yes, after the RNC, Trump received a bump that got him within a few points of Clinton, but Clinton's own nomination saw her pull further ahead, and then his dismal performance after the first debate, and the bizarre and pointless Twitter war with the model ex-model he called fat saw him crash, and he's been crashing ever since.
You mean "alleged victims", and since Bill Clinton isnnotnon the ballot this is little more than a red herring. Even if it were true, that wouldn't make Trump's statements correct.
It would be nice if people trying to make historical comparisons actually had some knowledge of history. First of all, it was five and a half years between the burning of the Reichstag and the invasion of Poland. Second of all, Germany had in fact been planning the Second World War since the 1920s, when the Weimar Republic employed the supposedly disbanded General Staff as "civil servants" so they could spend their days planning for the lightning campaigns that would later become invasions of France and Russia.
Do Trump supporters like yourself actually believe Clinton is going to go to war against Russia, or that Russia would actually want a war with the US? I've seen hysterical pronouncements before, but this is so over the top it makes me think your family should be worried about your mental health.
It's a lot like the Cosby scandal. A famous rich guy sexually assaults women for decades, gets away with it precisely because he's a rich celebrity, and even when some hint of scandal gets out, no journalist dares pounce on it for fear of the fires of legal hell raining down on them, thus encouraging the rich celebrity to continue behaving in that way.
Well, Cosby got outed by just a handful of accusers, and once you have a few, when you're dealing with a long-term sexual molester, well the dam bursts. Now it's happening to Trump in his turn. He'd best hope that his victims are only interested in depriving him of whatever small chance had of actually winning, and not of doing a Cosby on him. Cosby, at least, is a lot older and may not survive to experience the full onslaught of judicial wrath. Trump is a lot younger.
He doesn't have a chance. There is literally no precedent in the modern era of a candidate coming from as far behind as Trump is less than a month out. He's done, finished, kaput, and he seems to know it, as he transforms his campaign into some sort of bizarre attack machine lashing out at everybody and everything.
The reality is he never had a chance, and I doubt he ever believed he did. But a lot of rather angry people and some pretty incompetent competition during the Primaries handed probably the most unsuitable big ticket candidate in half a century the nomination.
No he just bragged about walking in models in various states of undress, grabbing women's genitals, and expressing his sexual attraction for his own daughter. He's a real genius alright.
No, I think the US space program is far more advanced, it's just in a sort of pause mode while the next generation of space craft come online. When China can put a Rover on Mars that will last 12 years, you let me know.
Okay, to be fair, they do still (for a very brief while) have a space station, so let's say they're where the US and the Russians were in the mid-1970s. They have a bit of a leg up because of the work the Soviet and US space programs did, and they also have a lot more computer power at their disposal than their predecessors did in the 60s and 70s.
I will repeat, if you can't express your feelings without wanting to personal physical harm to someone, then you have a serious emotional problem.
It's one thing to call for Blair's arrest and trial. It's implausible to imagine it happening, but that's the kind of discourse one should have in a civilized society. Bullies, brutes and morons are the kinds of people who can only express their agitation in the form threats of physical violence.
Mars has more resources readily available for supporting some kind of habitation. There's a CO2 atmosphere and plentiful water, both of which could be used to produce oxygen. Nitrogen might be a bit of a problem, but I have been reading there's probably enough trace nitrogen in the atmosphere for a habitat's purposes.
Brandenburg v. Ohio gives the police and prosecutors the power to charge someone if their speech leads to imminent danger. In other words, you incite a riot, you'll be charged.
And if you call your neighbor a pedophile because his dog shits on your lawn, he'll likely own your law after the civil trial is over. Ever heard of slander?
There are some kinds of speech that can be criminalized, or at least made into civil matters. Shout fire in a crowded theater, urge on a violent mob, or, on the civil side, call your neighbor a pedophile because he dog craps on your lawn, and you'll find out awfully fast that freedom of speech is not limitless, and that like any liberty, there are edges.

And then people started to appear stating that they were victims of the kind of sexual assault he was describing.
This is how the Bill Cosby apocalypse began, and Cosby's defenders were doing the same dance you are.
Since he's talking about groping women he's never met before, explain how they grant consent.
You mean "alleged victims", and since Bill Clinton isnnotnon the ballot this is little more than a red herring. Even if it were true, that wouldn't make Trump's statements correct.
Ah yes, the "sexual assault and depravity" crowd is out to support Donald "Cosby" Trump.

When was grabbing women's genitals perfectly alright? And why are you an apologist for sexual assault? Have you no morals? Are you a sociopath?
The fact was he was bragging about sexual assault.
No he just bragged about walking in models in various states of undress, grabbing women's genitals, and expressing his sexual attraction for his own daughter. He's a real genius alright.
Perhaps if Trump hadn't publicly bragged about doing what he is now accused of, his campaign wouldn't be crashing and burning.
The Drake Equation is just plain gibberish.

Are you serious? They're basically where the Soviets and US were in the early 1960s.
There's a reason the Articles of Confederation didn't work as a constitution. A country actually does need to be run, it turns out.
But, of course, you would know that, if you had ever actually cracked open a history book.
If you can't express your feelings without calling for someone's rape, then you have a serious problem.
Brandenburg v. Ohio gives the police and prosecutors the power to charge someone if their speech leads to imminent danger. In other words, you incite a riot, you'll be charged.
And if you call your neighbor a pedophile because his dog shits on your lawn, he'll likely own your law after the civil trial is over. Ever heard of slander?
What happens if the Internet troll is threatening to rape or kill you?
Believe it or not, it has never been acceptable to threaten bodily harm against people, and "on a computer" is not a defense.
