I suspect that Paula Jonres, Gennifer Flowers, Kathleen Wiley and Juanita Brodwerick would disagree with you. Covering up your husbands sexual assaults and rapes is hardly pro-women. Then there are the 600,000 women a year killed with her full support and the Nuns she wants to force to buy contraception. Unfortunately for the left “women rights” means the right of a woman to pay someone to kill her child. I dont know how anyone could be proud of supporting this woman.

As far as corrupt-Whitewater, The Clinton foundation, Cattle Futures, Missing law firm records, Vince Foster, Webster Hubble et al… And of course she it the First nominee in history to be running for office while under investigation by the FBI

Just how did the Clinton’s become so rich in the 16 years since they left office given Hillary said they were “dead broke” when they left office? .

And nevertheless, despite all this, she is still a much better pick by far for prez than Trump. Let’s just face it!

Next few days should be very interesting for the Trump campaign. Tomorrow night a rally in Dallas with large counter protests planned.

The most interesting thing about Trump rallies is that they’re shrinking:
Recent polls show Hillary Clinton leading Trump by double digits nationally. And his unfavorability ratings continue to rise.

That slowdown in support seemed evident on Wednesday when Trump spoke at Atlanta’s Fox Theatre, which holds less than half the audience he commanded during his last appearance in Atlanta in February. “This place is packed,” he said, shielding his eyes against stage lights. “We have people outside who couldn’t get in. Does anybody want to give up their seat?”

Apparently Trump could not see the hundreds of empty seats in the theater’s second level. A similarly reduced crowd showed up at a recent campaign stop in Virginia.

Isn’t one of the reasons possibly for that is, is that Trump is now the presumptive nominee, and other Republicans have dropped out of the race… obviously he’s competing with the likely Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton going forward, but Trump is now the Republican presumptive nominee, perhaps that may be factor?

He is overexposed.

Basically, all the cable news stations have shown him like crazy to jump their ratings and I heard Rush Limbaugh today and he was live broadcasting the event and making comments (not the entire event, but I listened for 10 minutes and it was at least that long).

He needs to go away until the convention so that people are excited when he gives his nomination acceptance speech.

But that isn’t bound to happen, he’s campaigning, it’s going to get covered by media. Trump is probably getting millions of dollars worth of free coverage when those speeches at campaign rallies or other events that he’s speaking at, air.

Does “face it” mean clam up and don’t try to get stop her? There’s democracy for you. 😉

Won’t do him a lick of good if everyone’s totally sick of him on election day.

Of course, keep putting pressure on her to reform and come clean and halt fracking and make and promote policies to reduce climate change, as well as bring about a true Bernie-style revolution, including not only more equitable distribution of wealth (making the rich pay their fair share of taxes and wages to wage-earners), free or inexpensive college, free professional child-care, and paid maternity leave. Maybe guaranteed wages, even for the unemployed (and don’t call it welfare), at the very least wages for stay-at-home poor moms with kids (that is REALLY hard work for the benefit of society and worth good wages).

I think she would be amenable to all that. If she had only known regular, decent people would pour out their money to her campaign the way they did to Bernie, she may not have gone astray in the 1st place. There is hope for her reformation.

There is virtually no hope for Trump to be an acceptable president. He is a psychopath (that should be very obvious to all). It would take years of therapy to get him straightened out and years of education and experience as an elected official to make him ready to become prez. And the 1st step for him would be to admit he has a problem and needs to change, then submit to psychiatric help…which is practically unheard of for people like him with borderline or narcissistic personality disorders. It might take a psychiatrist to tell us if what he has is borderline, narcissistic, antisocial, or paranoid personality disorder, or some combination of these.

At the least he has “authoritarian personality” disorder, as Hitler (and his followers) had, according to German sociologists.

As a MMGW activist, you should be more worried about Hillary Clinton than Trump. Sure, Trump is likely to do that, regarding the environment, that he thinks is more efficient and conducive to jobs. Clinton, on the other hand, is for sale. What she says means nothing. What matters is who is able to bring the most money to the table in front of her. Now, since the oil states have given her something like $40 million so far, perhaps she will curtail energy production in the U.S. But there’s no certainty that the western oil companies won’t outbid the oil states. And there is a certainty that the oil states won’t want her to eliminate a high degree of fossil fuel use in the U.S. They just want it to be their oil.

It just amazes me that Democrats don’t realize that despite a clear history of it.
 
Hillary loyalists should follow the advice of Obama, their dear leader, and do some soul searching! Vote for Trump!

If you mean that Hillary is “for sale” because she accepts donations for her campaign, then you’d have to put Trump in the same boat, since he is also accepting donations for his campaign. He is no longer self-funding.

People say that Ms. Clinton is for sale because she has shown herself to be. For example, we have Mr. Rajiv Fernando - a securities trader and major donor to the Clinton Foundation - appointed to the International Security Advisory Board in 2011. The ISAB is involved in such things as arms control and US nuclear strategy. Mr. Fernando had zero experience in politics, diplomacy, military strategy, or international relations. What he did have was between $100,000 and $250,000 that he had donated to the Clinton Foundation.
