    I did Google, and I found nothing that I would consider remotely reliable. I'm just wondering what kind of sources you get your information from, as I'd like to see where you're getting this information. If there is an abundance of sources, please point me in their direction.

    what sources do you consider reliable? cnn? I was stating my opinion, which you're not going to change with smarmy posts on boards. have a flick through some of the leaks that have come out recently.

    It isn't inconceivable that Trump will drop out.

    He won't drop out. He's doing all this for himself. He couldn't care less about the Republican party. If he were a true republican he might consider it but he's not.

    Loosing the presidential race would be a feather in his cap in a way, dropping out would be a disaster for him personally. He will go on to the bitter end.

    Edit: I'll eat my keyboard if he does.

    I'm not being smarmy at all. I'm not trying to change your opinion. Claiming that Hilary killed a peace deal with Libya is pretty serious, and I would like to see where it's coming from. The only thing I could find with a cursory Google originates from Infowars.

    I'd consider many sources to be reliable, Infowars and Alex Jones aren't among them.

    Just give me some of these links and I''ll read through them, I'm not being smarmy. "Just use Google" is a cop out; I could easily say "everything you've claimed has been disprovev. Have a Google mate, you'll see".

    Dwayne - ooooooo, sounds interesting, what are they?

    Depp - ah go do your own research....anyway it's only my opinion...anyway you're smarmy...

    Its not recently.

    The republicans have been running a smear campaign against Clinton for 25 years since she tried to introduce healthcare reform in the early 90's.
    They investigated them for years and found nothing then tried to impeach bill and failed.
    The Benghazi thing has been investigated by congress for years and has resulted in no blame on Clinton.
    But still they keep on with the smears.
    So when you talk about "leaks" coming out you're really talking about rumours put out by the republicans.

    The paradox of Google will lead you back to this thread anyway!

    No you weren't "stating your opinion". You made a factual claim(or two actually) with no evidence to back it up. Grand if you want to go around doing that but don't be surprised if somebody calls you on your bull****. If that's what you want maybe r/thedonald is more your speed.

    I don't know a whole lot about HRC but I'm not seeing anything inappropriate apart from the server thing (which I reckon was actually a fairly intelligent move on her part).

    So what exactly has Hillary done? Because it's veginning to look like just a long standing smear campaign.

    In the last two weeks the Donald has...

    Been found to have broken a Cuban embargo
    Had his foundation stopped due to illegal use of funds
    Picked a row with a former miss universe
    Brought up a non existent sex tape
    Been shown to have pretty much not paid taxes
    Bragged about sexually assaulting women

    So if there's a Hillary smoking gun I'd love to see it.

    Repeatedly banging on about media bias, like getting the #Trumpwon no1 trending hashtag after first debate, doesn't actually make it so.

    You literally gave zero sources.

    Not sure whether I want Trump to lose by a little or be crushed.

    Either way, it would be pleasing to see that what might bury him is one of the things he likes to brag about, his sexual prowess.

    What would clear the decks for a proper Paul Ryan tilt in 2020? *

    Makey uppey sources. They are valid - right?!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,343 ✭✭✭dwayneshintzy


    The source I managed to find, about Clinton killing a peace deal for Libya, was this one; http://www.infowars.com/exclusive-hillary-killed-libya-peace-deal-over-personal-vendetta-claims-whistleblower/

    Everything else referred back to this "exclusive".

    I also love Donald Trump. And I select him as a best candidate.

    What a site....they also think he will win 2nd debate because of the leaked audio tape!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,828 ✭✭✭gosplan


    OK, I checked out the 'exclusive' on that Lybia thing.

    I'm giving up after reading this sentence...

    "But there was a problem.

    Secretary of State Hillary Clinton didn’t want peace. She wanted Muammar Gaddafi dead for her own selfish, spiteful reason"


    Clearly rubbish one-sided journalism.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,828 ✭✭✭gosplan


    Oh and look, the 'source' has been a friend if trumps for 13 years and endorsed him way back in Feb.

    http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/seven-reasons-why-dr-ka-paul-worlds-most-popular-evangelist-is-backing-donald-trump-for-americas-president-300227500.html

    So yeah - Google!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,828 ✭✭✭gosplan


    So is there actually anything on Clinton or are Trump supporters just regurgitating nonsense they haven't checked.

    dont understand how much traction this tape is after getting, trump makes a lewd comment about women in a clip from ten years ago and all of a sudden everybody completely forgets all the horrifying sh!t hillary has following her around lately, such a strange election in general but its really opened my eyes to how trustworthy the msm are

    I never claimed I had sources, and if you read the post I actually made I never explicitly accused hillary of anything I was saying there are an awful lot stories following her of late. Personally I don't think either candidate should even be allowed to visit the whitehouse. My main point was how untrustworthy the msm have become.

    But why with the Hillary thing? What's wrong with her?

    Any horse look-alikes for VP? Or to secure the trump fan votes again clay Matthews lookalikes? :pac:

    I know! It's ludicrous to be giving anything coming from him or his site any credence whatsoever. Just that we have people claiming that Hilary killing a Libyan peace deal is a big controversy, and this is where it's come from.

    Because the video of Donal Trump is an actual, primary source of Trump saying something despicable. The Hilary stuff isn't comparable; you mentioned the Libyan peace deal thing as one of these things that isn't getting any attention.

    Well, there's a reason it isn't getting any attention.

    A journalist can't publish a story without sources, what do you not get here? You're complaining because news outlets aren't making up bull**** stories to slander Hillary for the sake of balance? They'd be sued out of business.

    Something sexist?
    He's boasting about sexually assaulting women.

    Hillary using the wrong email server isn't comparable.

    You're just saying that because of the mind-control drugs The Government puts in the water supply.

    As people have mentioned, the facts are important.

    This whole biased mainstream media thing is I think a total myth.

    They're reporting facts.

    Hillary has left them very few.

    Trump just can't help himself.

    He's losing because he doesn't have the disclipine for an election. If he can't run an election, how can he run a country.
