RE: Hilary so incompetent State Dept spam filters were blocking her correspondence

Just a reminder, they turned off the anti virus as well as the spam filter. Moving swiftly on...
"I'll vote against Trump" shows how little democracy there is in the country that claims it wants to export democracy all over the world. American needs to change its voting system. Yes, Donald is a very bad candidate but that doesn't mean we should keep quiet about Hilary.
In previous years an FBI criminal investigation would be an automatic disqualifier for a presidential candidate but because it's Hilary she can get away with it. But I have never advocated people vote for Donald. I ask people I know about the election and they are laughing and crying at the same time.
It really irks me when there is a possibility that Hilary isn't playing by the rules and violated one of the few remaining election laws in the United States (in addition to the overt collusion with the DNC). Money from people who aren't US citizens may have found its way to her campaign, which is illegal. So I reiterate my claim of Hilary being more corrupt.
The FBIs criminal investigation into Virginia governor Terry McAulffe (and by extension the Clinton Foundation, which he has worked for) may lead us to the conclusion that Hilary has broken election laws. Whilst Terry was working for Clinton there is a chance he accepted donations from people who aren't US citizens and this illegal money may have found its way to Hilary's campaign
Quote:As part of the probe, the officials said, investigators have scrutinized McAuliffe's time as a board member of the Clinton Global Initiative, a vehicle of the charitable foundation set up by former President Bill Clinton.
And:
Quote:Among the McAuliffe donations that drew the interest of the investigators was $120,000 from a Chinese businessman, Wang Wenliang, through his U.S. businesses. Wang was previously delegate to China's National People's Congress, the country's ceremonial legislature.
...
Wang also has been a donor to the Clinton foundation, pledging $2 million. He also has been a prolific donor to other causes, including to New York University, Harvard and environmental issues in Florida.
U.S. election law prohibits foreign nationals from donating to federal, state or local elections. Penalties for violations include fines and/or imprisonment.
Maybe Wang is a US citizen after all, but the Clinton Foundation has accepted money from all sorts of people. For all his ills, at least we know (so far) that Donald has won his elections without violating election laws. He has somehow managed to play by the rules.

I will reiterate my stance, I am voting against Donald Trump.
I wish the Dems had put forward a better candidate, but the reality is that it's either Clinton or Trump. I am a realist.
I know what side Hillary stands on issues that are important to me. I have no idea which side Trump stands on on most issues becauses he refuses to make a stand, but I do know what side he's beholden to, and what the majority of his supporters support. I will not succumb to populism and rampant, fear mongered nationalism. No matter how close Hillary is with Wall Street, if you think Donald Trump gives 1 millionth of a shit about anybody's wallet but his own, you're crazy. He's a billionaire, and he's going to enact policies that help him, as evidenced by every fucking business decision he's ever made, every tweet he's still freely putting out into the universe, and every speech he gives.
No matter what email/election/funding shit Hillary's campaign did, she did not eggregiously swindle US Veterans, she didn't ruin people's businesses and lives, she didn't put hundreds of people in debt in order to make a buck, she didn't screw hundreds of small businesses out of money she owed them because contract defaults and bankruptcy. She hasn't sued people 3,500 times, been sued just as much, she hasn't backtracked literally every stance she takes, and doesn't blatantly and shamelessly lie or contradict herself daily.
I'll take Hillary, shitty baggage and all, over Trump any day.

You never answered my question, MNMP. Can you vote in an American election?
Let the foot-tapping begin ...

Let the foot-tapping begin ... Of course not. But the warmongering will have an impact on my life. Seeing as the Clinton Foundation had received millions from al-Saud there will be more financing of terrorists (which I don't think Donald would do because he sincerely hates terrorism) from a president Hilary and that will mean millions more homeless refugees because al-Saud wants Assad gone. I don't want millions of homeless refugees coming to Europe because the president is a puppet of Arab royalty. This is the lady, who as secretary of state advocated for selling weapons to the South Sudanese, people who are known to use child soldiers (which is a violation of US law). There is no bottom of the barrel for Hilary or Trunp.
I have every reason to just as afraid of Hilary. Selling billions in weapons to al-Saud whilst at the same time pretending to support women Hilary is the military industrial complex candidate.
Hilary will be a puppet of al-Saud as president. We know millions were donated to the Clinton Foundation in exchange for favorable arms deals and other things. Hilary is controlled by her evil donors.

Kudos just for this bit. Not talking about Thump specifically, but many Americans have flooded the Brexit threads with their opinions and then mocked us for commenting on their affairs.
I won't bother to pretend that I know much about the other parts, so I'll leave it up to the others to debate you about that.

Trump is the GOP candidate. If you think the GOP is going to give up their adoration of the Saudis, again, you have no clue what you're talking about.
All of those points about warmongering and military industrial complex are just absolute idiocy.
Trump wants to massively expand our bloated military. He wants to get involved in the Middle East --- Putin style. Have you even listened to a Trump speech, like ever?
Hillary is still beholden to the liberal voting bloc, who do not want escalated military spending.

But the GOP establishment is panicking over Trump. One the reasons is because he's such a wildcard and doesn't take money from Saudi. Al-Saud is crazy, but not so crazy they'd donate to Donald. The GOP establishment would prefer not to have Donald.
Donald has such a big mouth he sometimes stumbles upon the truth. Th GOP don't like that. And he and Hilary were sparring over who supports homosexuals more, he correctly pointed out Hilary should return all the millions she received from Saudi if she really supports homosexuals.

That's fucking preposterous. You clearly have no idea what the GOP and the Christian right have done to homosexuals in this country. There are several cases involving gay parental rights, transgender rights, gun laws, etc that are going to hit the SCOTUS in the coming years, and Trump will nominate party favorites to the Supreme Court. He has come out against marriage equality repeatedly. He thinks states should decide whether transgender people can use the bathroom of their choice.
Hillary Clinton didn't take money from the Saudis. The Clinton Foundation took money from the Saudis. Between $10mil and $20mil came from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which is clearly visible on the Foundation's website. The Clinton Foundation is a public charity, so its records are available for you to peruse. They do awesome work all over the globe.
The very idea that Trump is a supporter of the LGBT community is dumber than hell. To say, "Well, I don't support equal rights for you, but the charitable organization that spends millions of dollars on fighting world hunger and opening health clinics in impoverished American communities and contributes to programs that promote energy efficiency took money from people who hate gays and it has Hillary's name on it, so I hear people saying she's not a fan of the gay community" is just fucking dumb.
Seriously, you're ludicrous.
