Hopefully someone will be monitoring signals to her earbud during the debates.

Reply

I would find it humorous if someone intercepts that signal, even replaces it such that she at some point needs to pull it out of her ear mid-debate!

One of the best posts.... I’m impressed with the level of thought going into many of these posts.

This is not about us not welcoming a balanced, fair and lawful immigration system. This is about Democrats ignoring and abusing immigration and border laws, and doing nothing about illegals flooding our country.

It’s about a lawless, unpatriotic, narcissistic, Muslim sympathizing President Obama.

It’s about admitting, year after year, only Muslim and dark skinned immigrants from 3rd world countries.

It’s about the war on Christianity.

It’s about a total abuse of our benefit system, our money handed out by The Fed with no checks and balances.

It’s about the Democrats cheating and lying to let these illegals and felons vote to cancel out the law abiding citizen’s votes.

It’s about Democrats pandering to and only caring about thugs, law breakers, illegals, Muslims, minority groups, and social PC Justice.

It’s about ignoring and abusing the middle class and blue collar workers for decades.

It’s about the Democrats trying to water down, ignore, or change the United States Constitution.

It’s about a lying, biased Main stream media.

It’s about so many other important things, but now we have a voice. We will be heard in November. We will vote for Trump, and we will take our country back again and make it great again. You can count on it.

10,387 Comments so far and the majority are pro Trump.

This on a liberal rag that supports Hillary. Keeps in mind, every poster must register prior to making any posts.

Worthy of a popcorn award.

If you put lipstick on a pig, is it still a pig?

And most of us believe that a pig looks good when it is cured, cooked and carved.

When it gets to zero, let’s all gather at CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, NPR, MSNBC, LAT, WP, COMCAST, FOX and any other media I’ve forgot, carefully remove all the people and burn the buildings to the ground. This, because TRULY these media are a bigger enemy of the people than ISIS, RADICAL Islam, China, Hitler, Tojo or Mussolini.

Interesting post:

This is no longer “conspiracy theory” it’s a public fact: US military operation is currently being conducted to manipulate US social media.
.
The US military has developed software that will let it *secretly* manipulate social media sites by using fake online personas to influence internet conversations and spread its propaganda. A Californian corporation has been awarded a contract with United States Central Command (Centcom), which oversees US armed operations in the Middle East and Central Asia, to develop what is described as an “online persona management service” that will allow each chosen US serviceman or woman to control up to 10 separate identities based around the world. The project has been likened by web experts to China’s attempts to control and restrict free speech on the internet.

Critics are likely to complain that it will allow the US military to create a false consensus in online conversations, change the narrative, crowd out unwelcome opinions, and smother commentaries or reports that do not correspond with its own objectives.

The discovery that the US military is developing false online personalities – known to users of social media as “sock puppets” – could also encourage other governments, private companies and non-government organizations to do the same. The Centcom contract stipulates that each fake online persona must have a convincing background, history and supporting details, and that up to 50 US-based controllers should be able to operate false identities from their workstations “without fear of being discovered by sophisticated adversaries”.

Centcom spokesman Commander Bill Speaks said: “The technology supports classified blogging activities on foreign-language websites to enable Centcom to counter violent extremist and enemy propaganda outside the US.” Google it.

List of Hillary’s lies... per Washington Post website (too funny)

1. My husband is not a sexual predator and I don’t support his abuse of women.

2. Bill and I have a normal marriage, and any assertions that by defending him against allegations of aberrant sexual behavior I enable him to continue to prey upon vulnerable women are false.

3. Paula Jones, Gennifer Flowers, Juanita Broaddrick, Kathleen Willey and all the others who have claimed to have had sex, been sexually harassed, assaulted or raped by Bill Clinton are just white trash publicity seekers.

4. Bill did not have sex with Monica Lewinsky; allegations that he did are part of a vast right wing conspiracy.

5. I was shocked to discover that Bill had had sex with Monica Lewinsky, but I forgave him because I love him and he had never done anything like that before and he hasn’t since.

6. I do not have a vicious temper and reports that my ripping into Vince Foster on the morning he committed suicide may have driven him over the edge are unfounded.

7. I never have had temper tantrums or exhibited violent behavior like throwing ashtrays or lamps when I found out about something I didn’t like or couldn’t get my own way.

8. Reports that I told White House staff and Secret Service agents to step into a closet or hide behind a curtain because I didn’t want to have to see them when I walked down the halls are simply stories made up by an unscrupulous reporter.

9. Had Hillary Care been implemented it would have provided high quality affordable health care to all Americans while preserving their freedom to choose their doctors and their plans.

10. I had no idea where the Rose Law firm billing records were.

11. The Whitewater land deal was totally above board and there was nothing illegal or even unethical about it.

12. When I said I came under sniper fire when I landed in Sarajevo I wasn’t lying.

I could feel sorry for her if she weren’t so evil. Coughing is a big problem for those who are somewhat incontinent. Trump may need some nursing home spray for the debates. She would be better off with one of those bags. They will never send her to the Big House.

I think she’s been wearing a diaper since that dem debate when they all had to wait for her to use the bathroom.

I saw a u tube video which claims she has vascular dementia due to the blood clot several years ago. Incontinence is one of the symptoms.

The writer is behind on the news. Trump is now more popular than Hillary; or to put it another way, he is less unpopular than Hillary.

Funny comment... Time for Hillary to top it with all the “Finger Guns” during her speeches.

For an anti gun woman, she sure uses a lot of “Finger Guns.”

It was funny the other day as I saw her use the finger gun with no words as she forgot what she was going to say...

Kind of reminded me of a Village People dance move!

“or to put it another way, he is less unpopular than Hillary.”

What ever works as long as he is ahead and wins in the end. I don’t care if Trump is the least unpopular candidate.

Comment 13,847... when the average number of posts is around 300 for a Washington Post article

These high-priced spreads called consultants just don’t get it. The problem isn’t one of tactics, fundraising, or avoiding the media. The problem is Clinton herself.
The reason why Trump is gaining supporters, many of whom have not readily admitted to supporting him, is because he’s not her.

This country doesn’t want or need an Obama Third Term. Clinton cannot close this deal. Recent polling in North Carolina that shows Trump up also shows Obama’s unfavorable rating high, and get this, Clinton’s higher than Trump’s!
Trump’s not going to win on issues, because he knows all the right things to say, or because he knows all the government programs, or has 30 years of government experience. He’s going to win because he’s not her. And all the speeches about being a warm Mommy is not going to change it.
