What an incredibly dumb time to be alive. -
Democrats/MSM say Trump is a #YUGE security risk...while Hillary is under FBI investigation for mishandling secrets.

REMINDER:
Hillary's server IS the smoking gun.

It was so obvious that I (incorrectly) even thought that Gator would see it
He constantly disregards well thought out articles without even reading them,
because it is a "right-wing" source
But no.
He goes with the weak-ass fake outrage response.

THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE JUST DECLARED WAR ON NORTH CAROLINA, David French writes at NRO:
Is there a single person who believes that the Congress that passed Title VII in 1964 believed that it was doing away with the distinction between male and female — making it completely dependent on individual preference — and thus granting men access to women and girls in bathrooms, lockers, and showers?LGBT activists used to be angry with the Obama administration for its failure to pass or even press hard for ENDA, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, a bill that would have added sexual orientation and gender identity as protected classes in federal employment law. But passing bills is so tiresome and inefficient, especially when a mere memo can change the law, and the Obama administration can be confident that leftist judges will uphold most anything done with Obama’s ”pen and phone.”The letter claims that North Carolina treats “transgender employees, whose gender identity does not match their ‘biological sex’ . . . differently from similarly-situated non-transgender employees.” This is a howler. I wonder . . . will the DOJ intervene to defend the state from liability the first time a woman or child is assaulted in a bathroom by a man who was granted a legal right to be there? Quack science meets quack law, and social justice warriors rejoice.Jazz Shaw writes “For their part, the state is thus far standing firm against the threats coming from Loretta Lynch’s office.” Shaw links to a Boston Herald article today that notes:
Giving no indication of yielding to pressure, North Carolina’s Republican leaders called a federal warning about the legality of the state’s new law limiting LGBT anti-discrimination rules a broad overreach by the government.Gov. Pat McCrory and top state legislators were determining what steps to take after the U.S. Justice Department said in a letter Wednesday that the state law violated federal civil rights laws and threatened possible litigation.“This is no longer just a North Carolina issue, because this conclusion by the Department of Justice impacts every state,” McCrory said.As Shaw writes, “The stupidity surrounding this entire argument is staggering, but we unfortunately seem to be living in a time when the courts must be called in to decide every demand from the You Will Be Made To Care battalion of the SJW. It’s sad, but unless there is a resurgence of common sense around the electorate you can expect more and more of this nonsense to clog up the courts for years to come.”
While a two-front war is always a dangerous proposition, it’s got to be good for Mr. Obama to have President Ash Carter in charge of fighting ISIS. It frees up our reverse von Clausewitz, the man who views American politics as the continuation of warfare, to continue his all-out war against the American people, which as we’ve seen over the last seven and a half years, Mr. Obama views as the much more important of the two struggles. (Just ask him.)

She has nothing to run on because she's done nothing. Nothing. Unless you count blaming others, lying, inciting racial and class strife, selling out American interests to the Russians and Chinese, ruining the lives of her husband's sex victims going back to the Arkansas governor days, dodging "sniper fire" in bosnia and jeopardizing the security of the country using her private server to circumvent oversight and the FOIA.
Actually, No. Hillary Clinton Isn’t Better Than Donald Trump
FTA:
Now that we have destroyed the most qualified and conservative field of GOP presidential candidates in the history of the nation and decided that an unstable Democrat named Donald will be the Republican standard-bearer, some Republicans are claiming that Hillary Clinton is a better choice. This thinking is no less deranged than the thinking that Donald Trump will not be a disaster, no matter if he wins or loses the election.
Hillary Clinton’s sole preparation for and only qualification for any office she has held is the fact that she allegedly had sex with Bill Clinton over a period of years. She is an impulsive and vindictive person. She is monumentally unsuited to any enterprise whatsoever. Let’s just look at her record for a moment:
Rose Law Firm.
Whitewater.
Hillary-care.
White House travel office.
Illegal use of White House to acquire campaign contributions.
Allowing her grifting brothers access to the federal government to enrich themselves.
Terrorizing Bill Clinton’s harem of former mistresses to keep them quiet and discredit them.
The Clinton Foundation.
Her private email system.
Benghazi.
Any public testimony she has given on any subject.
The destruction of US foreign policy and alliances
Where Donald Trump’s business career is an uninterrupted series of failures, the exact same critique applies to Hillary Clinton’s record each and every time she was allowed to actually exert personal authority over anything. In fact, Hillary Clinton’s failure as Secretary of State is the direct causation for the rise of ISIS, the civil war in Syria, and the refugee crisis hitting Europe.
This is not even a question of choosing a “lesser of two evils.”
Trump may be unable to dissociate fact from fiction, Hillary Clinton thinks they are the same thing. Saying that Hillary Clinton is better than Donald Trump is just as stupid as saying that Donald Trump is qualified to be president.
He isn’t. She isn’t.
Paul Ryan is creating a best, safe non-answer for other Republicans -- Trump has to prove he's worthy of my endorsement -- smart

HOW GOOD IS TRUMP? HE JUST HAD HILLARY PAY FOR HIS FIRST PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN AD:
https://twitter.com/MZHemingway/status/727948570507288577?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw
Build a wall, deport illegal immigrants, stop schools from being defenseless from terrorists, end federal support of Planned Parenthood, repeal Obamacare, get tough with terrorists overseas — in short, Make America Great Again. Thanks Hillary, for spreading the word!

Basically the Republican establishment is not fighting the attempts by the administration, specifically Obama, to rule by fiat. Congress has abdicated its rightful authority. It used to be that conservatives railed at Pelosi and Reid. Now that they aren't in the majority, conservatives rail at the establishment Republicans for acting as if they are Pelosi and Reid. We have a government that is tone deaf to the average American. Trump has resonated with a lot of people because those people despise the federal government for its overreach with its non Congress approved regulations and political correctness. In a nutshell, the calls for amnesty by the establishment became the rallying call for "The Wall".
Well put.
President Fox Apologizes, Invites Trump to Mexico...
HOW WOMEN VOTED IN INDIANA:
The Republican Party returned to a more narrow gender gap, with 53 percent of the primary electorate made up of men and 47 percent made up of women.Both sexes voted for Trump. More men than women voted for Trump, 59 percent to 47 percent.That’s a gender gap of 12 points.Cruz came in second, but it was a distant second with men (33 percent) and a closer second with women (41 percent voted for the Texas senator).The Democratic primary electorate faced a much wider gender gap, as has been the norm this election. Fifty-nine percent of Democratic primary voters in Indiana were women, and just 41 percent were men,for a gender gap of 18 points.Sanders won over 57 percent of men, but women split evenly. . . .Sanders doesn’t usually do this well with women voters in close elections,but it could be a sign that Clinton isn’t going to run away with the female vote as easily as she thought. -

Hillary Clinton Orders Liberal Media to Get Tough on Trump (VIDEO)
The scandal-plagued Democrat wants liberal reporters to get hard on Trump–
Because 64,000 negative ads were just not enough.
The Weekly Standard reported:
“I think reporters now have a chance to ask some tougher questions,” said Clinton. “It’s not enough to call in and give somebody a platform. It’s now the time to make the tough decisions, and you got to the ask him, okay, so what exactly would you replace X, Y, and Z with? If you’re going to be against trade agreements how is that going to work?” -
Humana is considering following the lead of United Health and dropping out of Obamacare exchanges in some states. Reuters reports:
Here is the key paragraph from Humana’s press release:
Humana is in the process of finalizing plans for its ACA-compliant individual commercial medical market offerings in 2017. Humana anticipates proposing a number of changes to retain a viable product for individual consumers, where feasible, and address persistent risk selection challenges. Suchchanges may include certain statewide market and product exits both on and off exchange, service area reductions and pricing commensurate with anticipated levels of risk by state.Meanwhile, NPR published a story yesterday showing what Obamacare plans are really like for some families:
[Renee Powell] shopped for insurance through the Obamacare exchange and learned that rates in her new area were much higher than they had been in Oklahoma City. She bought a health plan fromfor $750 a monthwith a manageable deductible.Then last year Blue Cross eliminated that plan — which is pretty common as insurers adjust to the Obamacare markets — and Powell was forced to buy the more expensive policy with a deductible of $3,000 for each person in her family. The insurance pays for checkups and prescriptions, but if anyone gets sick, Powell has to pay the full doctor bill until the deductibles are met.[…]Powell has spent about $4,400 so far this year in premiums for that Blue Cross policy, and she said the plan has only paid a few dollars for antibiotics one of her boys needed when he was sick.“I felt like we were paying money to the insurance company so that they could just sit on it and put it in stock,” she said.As the NPR story makes clear, Powell is now spending more on “affordable” insurance than on her rent and yet she is seeing almost no real benefit.
It’s a lot of money to pay for what amounts to a catastrophic insurance policy.

UNEXPECTEDLY:
Study Finds Employers Are Hiring More Freelancers To Avoid Obamacare.
And building more robots to avoid minimum wage hikes.
Who could have predicted such developments?!

It's obvious why.
"Mrs. Clinton, do you have any comment on the rumored pending indictment of you concerning your emails?"
"I'm sorry...it's illegal for you to even ask that question."
DOJ Replaces 'Criminal' With 'Justice-Involved Individual'
In an instance where we all need to stop for a second, sit back and think about the government monster called “political correctness” that has been allowed to grow, this episode of PC Culture is being brought to you by the good people at the Department of Justice (DOJ).
Keep the word “justice” in mind.
Apparently the DOJ has been phasing out the use of the word “criminal” to describe well, criminals. On the DOJ website the newer term, “justice-involved individual,” can be traced back to 2009. However, the term has seen more and more daylight over the last couple of years.
http://www.mrctv.org/blog/doj-using-term-justice-involved-individual-instead-criminal
Even U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch got in on the action:
The future of our nation depends upon the future of our young people – including young people who have become involved with our justice system. By helping justice-involved youth find decent jobs and stable housing after they return home, these critical grants provide a foundation for a fresh start and offer a path towards productivity and purpose. In the months ahead, the Department of Justice will continue helping justice-involved youth enrich their lives and improve our country.Lynch can’t even say that youths have broken the law. Instead she uses the phrase, “young people who have become involved with our justice system.”

Gross Domestic Product: The recession ended in June 2009. Obama's recovery, according to the Joint Economic Committee, averaged an inflation-adjusted GDP growth of 2.2 percent over the next 25 quarters. The average recovery following post-1960 economic slowdowns, which lasted more than 12 months, is 3.9 percent, and under President Ronald Reagan it was 4.8 percent. President Obama will be the first president to reign over a recovery in which not a single year's economy grew at least 3 percent.
Jobs: During this recovery, private-sector jobs grew 11.6 percent. According to the Congressional Joint Economic Committee., the private-sector job growth under the average recovery is 17.0 percent. Under Ronald Reagan, average job growth was 23.6 percent.
The national debt: When Obama entered the White House, the federal debt stood at $10 trillion. Federal debt, according to the summary tables in the last budget Obama submitted -- which runs through September 30, 2017 -- will be over $20 trillion.
Reminder........these polls that show Hillary over ten points ahead of Trump, there is only ONE category that they give him the edge
The economy.
How will that play out..........

SCOTT ADAMS: Clinton Versus Trump — Persuasion Scores:
“We’ll start with Clinton’s new campaign slogan: LOVE TRUMPS HATE… Spoken aloud, the slogan sounds like asking people to agree with Trump’s hate, as in “Love Trump’s hate (because Trump hates war, terrorism, and bad trade deals, same as you?).
This is the sort of mistake you never see out of the Trump campaign. The slogan is pure amateur hour. It accomplishes the opposite of its intent, and you can’t fail harder than that. Now let’s look at the ‘woman card’ issue:”
You can’t make this up. When you saw that symbol, you thought of a restroom. it is automatic.But the biggest mistake was putting a magnetic strip on the Woman Card. That makes you think of a credit card. And that makes you think of debt. Or perhaps it makes you think of a transit card that Clinton had trouble using at the subway in New York. All bad.You might ask yourself why the campaign did not go with a playing card model instead of a credit card. After all, “deal me in” is not typically associated with a magnetic strip.I’ll tell you why they didn’t use playing cards as their clever response. It’s because you would have to end up labeling Clinton the queen of – let’s say –hearts. And in cards, the queen is ranked below the king. That’s not so good if your opponent is a man…who lives in castles.Read the whole thing. Arguably more likely though, is the fear of making Hillary the 21st century equivalent of Angela Lansbury’s infamous character in the Manchurian Candidate, which might hit a little too close to home, given Hillary’s Saul Alinsky connection and the various facets of her leftwing politics, which connect to her virtually all of the postwar strains of American politics in Liberal Fascism.

You do realize a lot of his support came from the left side of the aisle?
No, no,
If the GOP picks you as their candidate, you must be an extemist right-winger.
You know.................................like John McCain and Mitt Romney.......
