It looks to me, now that Trump is looking like he can beat HRC, the administration is starting to cut her loose. The State Department is setting her up for an indictment. This will clear the way for Biden to run in November. Am I wrong? We'll see.
Even if she is not charged criminal wise, she will not win in the general. Got to remember she is damaged goods and Trump will hand to Hillary her rear end.
The same way he fends off cops!
Trump never plays the underdog.
Winners never do.
A winner always views themselves as a winner.
On the other hand Hillary portrays herself as a victim.
Losers always see themselves as victims.
Trumps whole campaign "Make America Great Again", is based on Trump being a winner and to ONCE AGAIN make America the winner it has been.
More people identify with being a winner or with a winner.
It's because of this, that Trump will beat Hillary like a mule.
Hillary's "vision" is about herself.
Trump's vision is about the nation and her people.
If Hitlery steps down, she will frog walk in a week.
Land. Slide. Ava. Lanche.
“Bring back the ‘90s”
The Clinton years?
I’m a card-carrying curmudgeon myself, but most of us here would like to skip Clinton Redux.
What if Hillary goes to the dims convention, gets the nomination and select Joe Biden as vice president? Then she steps aside. Biden steps up to the top spot on the ticket.
It is a theory.
Another is a Black Swan event in October if HRC is not winning. I think we saw the same thing in 2008 and agin in 2012.
My fear is that ‘they’ (the military-industrial-trilateralcommission-financialsector-governmentalbeauracracy-internetbillionaire-neosocialist-WashingtonEstablishment complex) will try to kill Trump. If that doesn’t work or doesn’t seem feasible, they will attempt a Kennedy assassination remake and take out Obama so Hillary can be swept in like Lyndon Johnson was. ‘They’ have too much to lose.
This site got its start as a gathering place for people following the Clinton scandals. Since it was basically focused on anti-Clinton material, the people who were here then had a wide range of opinions.
Somewhere between then and now the range of opinions got much, much narrower. Which is too bad, because a bunch of angry aging curmudgeons who all believe pretty much the same things and rage against any hint of deviation from that orthodoxy isn’t very interesting at all.
If you want to characterize it that way: “Why can’t things be the way they used to be?” all I can think to say in response is, yeah, FR ain’t your uncle’s symposium/watering hole anymore and it has never been a place for a range of opinions deviating from conservative categorical imperatives.
Any conservative who isn’t furious by this time with the results of a pretense of pluralism (most recently evidenced by speaker Ryan saying Congress is going to finally start asserting its prerogatives, I can only suppose the day after Trump is sworn-in), and willing to pick another GOP-e spud out of his teeth on November 7th, prolly won’t be happy here.
With Trump leading the way we’re taking this country back.
So you can join in, drop out or GTH out of the way with the holier-than-thou attitude and negative waves, Moriarity.

Um, you may not have noticed but I was here for seven years before you showed up. Perhaps you should take it from me that this place used to be very very different and open to a much wider range of opinion. Used to be a lot of genuine subject matter experts here, rather than people who assumed they knew everything and had nothing to learn from anyone else.
After all, I was here and you weren’t so I am in a position to tell you from firsthand experience what happened before you showed up.
If you don’t know what an Ash Alert is, or who Don Morgan was, or what CaL and DITHF refer to, then you’re in no position at all to say how things used to be. I literally have the T-shirt from those days.
Anyway, your other assumption is completely wrong also, I’ve been on the Trump train since the day Rand Paul dropped out. The backing of Trump is not among my complaints.
I think that passing Bernie up for Biden would maybe piss a lot of Dems off though.
How does Hillary get swept in, She isn’t in the line of succession?
“Subbing Biden may push Sanders into running as an independent. Biden will pull less votes than Hillary. Hes not a woman and hes not black.”
All very good points, although I think the time will be long past for Bernie to get on the ballot as an Indy in too many states. Biden may pull less votes than Hillary, but right now, she seems so toxic I think the Dems out of desperation will try to make the switch.
Lighten up Francis it’s good, fun discussion. Adult discussion is rare.
