    Unhappy because they wasted 8 years. Isn't Trump talking about increasing the minimum wage to $10? Isn't Trump talking about infrastructure? Isn't Trump talking about a rigged system?

    Well you actually have to want to look. Being lazy and expecting someone else to educate is part of the problem.

    I thought Trump University is a criminal charge (fraud) while the hundreds to thousands of other cases are civil.

    No Trump is just a shady businessman who expects you to believe he won't be a shady politician.

    Correct. We are an economy in transition, from a manufacturing base to a service and knowledge base. This is why we have the current wage gaps that we do.

    I don't recall this being a particular position Obama had, but in any case, it's been going on for a few decades now. As globalization took hold, firms were able to shift their manufacturing to far cheaper places. This has been going on since the 70's.

    My point is that Trump using a lot of Hope and Change themes, he's just a lot darker. His "Republicans don't help people" comment was pretty telling for Trump (whether or not believes it is uncertain).

    Nope, all of them are civil. Trump is a con man, but he's good enough to avoid criminal charges.....just like Hillary.

    That's a really strange statement to make. Just a little bit of internet research shows study after study that Republicans are much more charitable than Democrats, in both money and time (volunteering).

    That's entirely the result of church-giving. It's technically a charitable contribution, but whether it's money used to help people depends on your views.

    I understand your frustration, you wanted change and not much changed. I think not much will change with Trump either because he won't even get all Republican support behind some of his proposals.

    I looked through several of those articles and not one said they were "embarrassed" , sorry man. Besides it could be like me sending you Fox articles and claiming everyone felt that way.

    Take care, young man.

    All charity is subjective, that's not a fair argument.

    Giving money to a homeless person might not help them either if they happen to be one of the ones who blow it on drugs, but that's charity still.

    Frustration? Demagogues scare me.

    So if you think trump won't change much, then what's the big deal about Hillary?

    "Embarrassed", "dislike", "hates". Whatever if you are that caught up in semantics. No telling if you actually even looked, but that's on you.

    Heh. Glad I was able to make you change your tone.

    The big deal is she is corrupt, a liar, surrounds herself with people who lie for her and extremely careless as a public servant.

    Look I gave you an out to switch your stance on embarrassed thing a few posts ago.

    I changed my tone when I came to grips with you being a kid. I kept reading your user name and all I could think of is a backwards hat wearing pimple faced teenager making it rain with Monopoly money.

    The FBI has already recovered all of the emails.

    Much like many charities who give 10 cents on the dollar to the actual cause?

    Not many things changed because Georgie left us in a hole we hadn't seen since the Great Depression.

    If you mess with the numbers like people do with labor statistics, we were in several periods of recessions...aka depression.

    Wikileaks poll:

    US Poll: Who will you vote to become president?

    Donald Trump 42%
    Hillary Clinton 24%
    Gary Johnson 15%
    Jill Stein 19%

    54,728 votes cast...non-scientific poll.

    10 hours left to vote if you're interested.

    Hilarious- as if anyone reading Wikileaks is going to vote for Clinton- she's lucky she received double digits in this poll. But this is DEFINITELY how I see the general election results turning out.

    So many conspiracy theories, so little evidence.
