The Next President of the United States: IV

Can you guys at least wait until the result is official?

I’m literally replying to the words that you wrote. Why am I doing this?

Why? Trump’s not going to accept them anyway.

I wonder if this will push the gay vote a little into the Trump camp

Doubtful because no one thinks AIDS is a gay disease anymore…

November 8th can not come fast enough…

Are you honestly good with stats? That’s incredibly high for a population that only makes up 2% of the US.

Do you lack the ability to follow along or are you just trolling me?

Half of the people that have AIDS are NOT gay or bisexual. So why the fuck would only the GAY community turn against Clinton because supposedly the Clinton Foundation wanted to keep AIDS medication out of the US? AIDS meds being kept out of the US would affect everyone with AIDS including the 45% that are NOT GAY.

Of course, 2% making up 55% of any demographic is a lot, but that has literally ZERO to do with my comment.

Trump is a big favorite here in East Tennessee, just across the border in (Western) North Carolina, and a little north of us in the coal country of (Southwest) Virginia. People took down their flags and signs for awhile 2 weeks ago, but they are back up now.

Because they are disproportionately affected. Really not hard to follow.

Also it’s really difficult for a heterosexual male to get HIV outside of shared intravenous needle use.

If AIDS medication was withheld from the US than the people that are most likely to be upset about it are those with AIDS and their families. 55% of those with AIDS are gay/bisexual. 45% are not. Your rhetorical question “I wonder if this will push the gay vote a little into the Trump camp” ignores 45% of the people with AIDS.

Knowing you, it’s because you think AIDS is a gay disease as so many once did.

Gay anatomy isn’t different. It isn’t any easier or harder for a straight person to get AIDS. The odds of getting it are just higher if you’re gay.

Im feelin’ the tolerance, diversity, and inclusion.

Exclusive: Trump says Clinton policy on Syria would lead to World War Three

U.S. Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said on Tuesday that Democrat Hillary Clinton’s plan for Syria would “lead to World War Three,” because of the potential for conflict with military forces from nuclear-armed Russia.

In an interview focused largely on foreign policy, Trump said defeating Islamic State is a higher priority than persuading Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to step down, playing down a long-held goal of U.S. policy.

Trump questioned how Clinton would negotiate with Russian President Vladimir Putin after demonizing him; blamed President Barack Obama for a downturn in U.S. relations with the Philippines under its new president, Rodrigo Duterte; bemoaned a lack of Republican unity behind his candidacy, and said he would easily win the election if the party leaders would support him.

“If we had party unity, we couldn’t lose this election to Hillary Clinton,” he said.

On Syria’s civil war, Trump said Clinton could drag the United States into a world war with a more aggressive posture toward resolving the conflict.

Clinton has called for the establishment of a no-fly zone and “safe zones” on the ground to protect non-combatants. Some analysts fear that protecting those zones could bring the United States into direct conflict with Russian fighter jets.

“What we should do is focus on ISIS. We should not be focusing on Syria,” said Trump as he dined on fried eggs and sausage at his Trump National Doral golf resort. "You’re going to end up in World War Three over Syria if we listen to Hillary Clinton.

“You’re not fighting Syria any more, you’re fighting Syria, Russia and Iran, all right? Russia is a nuclear country, but a country where the nukes work as opposed to other countries that talk,” he said.

Not sure why you left the rest out…

Clinton’s campaign dismissed the criticism, noting that both Republican and Democratic national security experts have denounced Trump as unfit to be commander-in-chief.

“Once again, he is parroting Putin’s talking points and playing to Americans’ fears, all while refusing to lay out any plans of his own for defeating ISIS or alleviating humanitarian suffering in Syria,” Clinton spokesman Jesse Lehrich said in a statement.

Trump said Assad is much stronger now than he was three years ago and said getting Assad to leave power was less important than defeating Islamic State.

“Assad is secondary, to me, to ISIS,” he said.

OBAMA FOCUSED ‘ON HIS GOLF GAME’

On Russia, Trump again knocked Clinton’s handling of U.S.-Russian relations while secretary of state and said her harsh criticism of Putin raised questions about “how she is going to go back and negotiate with this man who she has made to be so evil,” if she wins the presidency.

On the deterioration of ties with the Philippines, Trump aimed his criticism at Obama, saying the president “wants to focus on his golf game” rather than engage with world leaders.

Highlights from Reuters’ exclusive interview with Donald Trump

Since assuming office, Duterte has expressed open hostility toward the United States, rejecting criticism of his violent anti-drug clampdown, using an expletive to describe Obama and telling the United States not to treat his country “like a dog with a leash.”

The Obama administration has expressed optimism that the two countries can remain firm allies.

Trump said Duterte’s latest comments showed “a lack of respect for our country.”

The interview comes two weeks before the Nov. 8 election, with Trump trailing badly in the polls. He repeated his assertion that the “media is rigging the polls” and said his supporters were upset with Republican Party leadership.

“The people are very angry with the leadership of this party, because this is an election that we will win 100 percent if we had support from the top. I think we’re going to win it anyway.”

He said if he wins he would not consider putting Democrats in his cabinet but would work with them on legislation.

Rodrigo Duterte’s seems like a real winner

Kind of rich for a guy who’s, um…what’s that again?

Ah yes. That.

Maybe Barack is just so excited by Donald’s new course opening that he really wants to be ready to hit the links.

Right…

It’s wasn’t because the very next sentence is Clinton’s response. That wasn’t it at all…

An identical message from the Kremlin was sent to the US through two individuals - both of them unhinged Putin’s puppets…

On a side note, I think the most damning verdict from a historical perspective will fall on Paul Ryan and hiss fellow GOP-ers who, through their pathetic and meek acquiescence, allowed that joke of a person named Trump to run against arguably the worst (make that second worst) US presidential candidate in history.

Solid guy

He was selected by the process set in place, that makes the nominee the person who gets the winning threshold of votes at the convention. That is the system and he legitimately succeeded, under its guidelines.

Beat me to it. What do these people expect?
