‘Giant Meteor’ of death tied with Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump among independents: Poll
The Washington Times ^ | June 30, 2016 | Douglas Ernst

Roughly 13 percent of Americans think extinction via “Giant Meteor” would be preferable to electing Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump the next U.S. commander in chief.

“It’s a simple reality that both of this year’s Presidential candidates are unpopular. Clinton’s favorability is 39/54, and Trump is even worse off at 35/58,’ the pollster’s report reads.

“This has given rise to the ‘Giant Meteor for President’ movement, and we find that the Meteor would poll at 13 percent — far more support than the third party candidates actually on the ballot

The meteor could do a better stump speech than Hillary. It would be a real “fireball”.

I see these articles but on the other hand I see articles saying more people voted for Trump than ever before in any election. I wish they’d get their Shitt straight.

Tough call.

Not really. I would take the giant meteor and die in a flash over Hillary and a slow agonizing death.

How about “The Giant Bovine Dump of Death”? Makes just as much sense.

13% of Americans probably believe the Moon Landing was faked.

Apparently this is trending.

But what about the environmental impact of this?

When the media starts mentioning that both candidates are “unpopular”, and that more than a few want an alternative, that’s their way of telling us they know the Democratic candidate is weak and can be defeated. That’s where we are now in this race. The media and the Uniparty are running scared now!

That giant meteor of death is called federal and state government spending. Its called entitlements and public employee pensions. It is still coming no matter who is elected.

Taking action based on a poll is folly. Clinton has little chance of improving her favorability rating. More likely than not, it will be getting worse.

Whereas Donald Trump is an unknown for the most part. His favorability ratings will only go up because he has solid plans for border security, the economy, and trade policies to make America Great Again.

That seems like an acceptable alternative to me.
