It’s beyond debate that Donald Trump is unfit to be president

By Editorial Board September 25 at 7:17 PM

DEMOCRAT HILLARY CLINTON and Republican Donald Trump will debate on national television for the first time Monday night, and the stakes could not be higher. The presidency and, by extension, the country’s future — maybe the world’s — could hinge on what they say and how they say it.

Or so we have been told — in breathless pre-event speculation about everything from whether the moderator, NBC’s Lester Holt, will intervene to correct a candidate who strays from the truth, to whether one candidate or the other will be able to goad his or her opponent into a campaign-altering gaffe before an audience expected to reach 100 million.

Permit us to dissent from this conventional wisdom, vigorously. Yes, Monday night’s clash, and two additional debates to follow, will add drama to the election, and a bit more data to the massive pile of it already available to voters. In a fundamental sense, however, there is nothing much at stake, or shouldn’t be, because there is not much more to learn: Mr. Trump has amply demonstrated his unworthiness to occupy the Oval Office. It’s beyond his capacity in the upcoming 90-minute question-and-answer sessions to reverse or even substantially modify that conclusion.

NY Times pretty much ran the same headline as this Sunday; obviously, this is coordinated, all of the forces are out.

Being ineligible did not stop him, either.

The Kenyanesian Usurpation was brought to you by BOTH parties.

The Constitution says natural born citizen.
That means one who is naturally an American because they couldn’t be anything else, born here of citizen parents.
Everyone in DC wanted that changed without the hassle of amending the Constitution.
The Senate passed a resolution declaring McCain a natural born citizen because he had TWO citizen parents, even though he was born in Panama.
Then Obama runs and wins based on just being born here, even though he told us on his website he was born a British subject.
So the standard went from born here of citizen parents to just TWO citizen parents to just being born here in one election cycle without amending the Constitution.
This was done intentionally because Rubio (no citizen parents), Cruz (foreign birth, one citizen parent), Jindal (no citizen parents), and Haley (no citizen parents) were all ineligible and the future of the GOP.

The truth of the Kenyanesian Usurpation will never see the light of day because they all cooperated in the violation of the Constitution.

Virtually everything is “beyond debate” with these people.
They would love us to not even have elections. What is the point? They are right and everyone else is wrong (from their point of view).


Really.

The entire media establishment is using its resources to get an America-hating marxist elected. Again.

So the old criminal vagina who is terminal ill and cant stand, falls on her face frequently or speak for any length of time, who has made a living out of stealing from everyone including us is fit to be president, delusional

msnbc is also carrying water for their gal as fast as it can:
`Low expectations for Trump’
“He also has never faced the bright spotlight of a one-on-one debate.”
He destroyed 16 Uniparty candidates in debates, but all Hillary has to do is be Li’l Miss Sunshine.
Hillary needs an edge, a helpful Moderator/Grand Inquisitor while all we ask for is a level playing field.
I guess we’ll see.

Within the confines of the WaPo’s minds, there is shear emptiness! A total vacuum!

It’s a bunch of liberal puke. I read it earlier and it’s just one lie after another about Trump

It demonstrates their desperation. The only thing they can do it repeatedly resort to character assassination. They have nothing else. Its Alinsky, Alinsky and more Alinsky,

Bezos’ WaPo has had a large team of reporters looking for dirt in Trump’s life for months, and hasn’t found anything of note. Therefore, he has to resort to such hysterics.

WAPO has been running a similar deal; but I hate supporting them even as much as I already do. I don’t think print newspapers are long for the world - which makes me very sad - so we’ll probably have to find an alternative soon anyway.

Yes it is beyond debate, because it is settled truth that he would be a fine president.
