Debate #3: The battle to keep voters at home
Washington Examiner ^ | 10/19/16 | Beverly Hallberg

Posted on 10/19/2016 9:28:09 AM PDT by sally234

Tonight's the night — the third presidential debate that (unfortunately) doesn't end with a "three strikes and you're out" rule. Because this election season has become a race to the bottom, a bottom so deep most Americans are questioning how we got here, the mark of a successful Round 3 for scandal-ridden Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton is nothing a campaign should ever brag about.

Trump is not scandal ridden. Hillary is, and she is also a crook who needs to be put in prison for her crimes and treason. The person who penned this is an ignoramus stooge.

Hillary literally is surrounded by massive scandal from deaths on her watch to felonious handling of classified info to conspiracy with media and foreign figures to throw the election. But let’s call Trump scandal-ridden because of a private off-color comment 11 years ago. Unreal.

This from the “News Media” who, from the 1st GOP debate, started this desperate race for the bottom? Look in the mirror hypocrites. YOU started this with the 1st question at the 1st debate.

Hillary loses on the issues so they made a conscious effort last year to make this the slimiest election ever.

Hillary only wins if she can scare enough people to vote against Trump. Virtually no one is voting FOR her.

Is it a trifecta troll train today?

Apparently the author is not a historian and doesn’t read much about previous American elections.

It’s all about depressing support for Trump. It’s called voter suppression and how the kenyan won in 2012.

Race to the bottom and then the MSM is standing there with the National Enquirer that maybe the only investigative journalist.

The point the Donald has to make is this:

I don't care if Hillary has ever spoken vulgarly in private. Its none of my business. I care about her taking bribes and doing favors for people that do not have the interests of the American people, nor any people other than themselves at heart. I care about the Democrat party using operatives to train and pay people to attack innocent citizens who oppose them politically. I care about using the IRS as a weapon against dissent. I care about a woman who would threaten to go to war with Russia so she can discredit the damning revelations about her corruption and that of her colleagues in the wikileaks emails. I care about the American people....not about Hillary's private life.

I got into politics to fix the established system of corruption that both parties have let run the government for years. The corruption has gotten so bad and so obvious they can't hide it anymore. So what do they do? They slander me. They twist my words. They paint me as a racist. They paint me as making fun of disabled people. They paint me as being a sexual predator. They paint me as being a liar. And whenever we debunk one thing they say, they have spun two more lies to take its place. Don't think its about me. Its not. If you were to put up your money and get to where I am now, they would do the same to you. They are sending a signal to the American people. They are saying this is what we do to those who threaten our system. If you go into public life and you go along with the corrupt system, no problem, we will cover your back. If you oppose the system, then everything you ever said. Every gesture you ever made. Will be twisted and condemned by the defenders of the system to make you out to be a moral monster.

“this election season has become a race to the bottom”

I disagree. The race is to stop America’s slide to the bottom.

Hillary Clinton violated the Federal Records Act and the Espionage Act. She grossly mishandled classified information, and lied about it. She got four good men killed in Benghazi, and had an innocent film-maker jailed because of it, and lied about it.. She covers for and defends rapists, smears their victims, and lies about it. She facilitated Iran's nuclear weapons program, and lied about it. She facilitated the formation and growth of ISIS, and lied about it.

Donald Trump said "pussy".

ROFL...I was on the Trump Train the day he announced, never looked back, and have been working very hard for this man...

If they think that me, my family, friends and neighbors are going to stay home, think again, we have already sent our votes in and all for TRUMP/PENCE to lead this Great Nation America!!!

These under educated hicks from the Hillbilly Farm Trailer Park think differently, they are in for a BIG SURPRISE!!!

It is always interesting how the Dems/Libs can sling mud, lie etc and nothing is said. But let a Rep actually fight back (which rarely happens) and all of the sudden the campaign is nasty and a race to the bottom. And of course it is the Repub who is making it that way.
