Go Trump!
Just joshin'.
Yah, fat fingeers. But my Japanese friend would call it “grobar walming” so you’re right!
I do note that climate change/whatever they call it now handily beat “clowns”, which is a bit of a surprise since the both get about the same amount of MSM attention.
A nuclear war with Russia is Hillary wins.
For the love of God, someone in the Trump campaign needs to listen to this stuff...
He should hammer the return of accountability and faith in government. Here are his two themes. One is red meat for his base and the other is a plea to the appalled and disgusted middle.
1. Law and order within the government. He should reiterate that he would look into the trail of corruption of ALL past administrations.
a. He would start by releasing FBI personnel who investigated Hillary from their NDAs and
b. immediately appoint an Independent Counsel for investigation of CF and affiliates during her tenure at State.
2. Immediately appoint an independent review of the FBI investigation including oversight, review and proceedings of the investigative processes pertaining to mishandling of classified documents and destruction of records.
3. Immediate introduce policies by EO and then legislation that anyone asserting their 5th amendment privilege in the course of a congressional or legal investigation for activity being investigated as a person fulfilling duties requiring that of Public Trust shall be immediately removed said position and permanently disbarred for further positions of Public Trust. Furthermore all benefits and retirement provision shall be irreversibly revoked from all positions, including all previous positions of Public Trust.
The justification for number 3 is simple, if you refuse to answer questions during your security clearance investigations, that is grounds for immediate disqualification for said Public Trust.
If Donald rolled this out during the last debate...THE RACE WOULD BE OVER!!!
you might go to RSBN and watch the replay of his speech from noon today, he wasn’t as far into the details as you are but he sure hammered on the main theme of corruption over and over again, with example after example. I think it was highly effective and would be surprised if he doesn’t do the same at the debate.
If number 3 is found unconstitutional, then he should answer that we will push a constitutional amendment for an exception for positions of public trust.
When Eric Clapton played Japan, he was called Alec Crapton.
