    The thing is Trump's speech was full of lies and inaccuracies. His plans to deal with immigration are in part unconstitutional, and in part not possible.

    That being said, he was largely focused on actual issues. Not everything Trump said was inaccurate. Some of it was valid. He stayed focused on actual issues.

    I disagreed with him for obvious reasons. I like our nation's constitution. I'll try and stick to that. Trump and his supporters obviously aren't particularly interested in preserving our constitution, but that's their choice. Although if he won Trump would have to swear to uphold and defend the constitution. That will be difficult for him.

    That being said, if he'd run his campaign like this the whole time, he might actually be in the lead in the race.

    Has the city of Detroit done so well under anyone since the auto industry left in the 70s....

    However.... when you actually look at the METRO Detroit area... It's done well under Obama (among others) and is still a major exporter despite a lot of the manufacturing moving to the South.

    LOL. Because illegal immigrant murders are at such rates it's a crisis..... Your side is probably better at manufacturing crisis....

    It's hilarious how a real estate mogul has become the immigration fixer.... Now that Trump made his money on cheap, illegal labor.... NO SOUP FOR YOU.

    Perhaps we should give them the same treatment as the "they took er jerbs" crowd.

    This is actually a very important topic. She's laying out American policy in the event of a major cyber attack on US infrastructure. Last year I read this book called Lights Out by Ted Koppel, it basically explains how incredibly vulnerable our power grids and financial systems are to attack by the Russians and Chinese and even perhaps terrorists in the future. The US needs to state very clearly that an attack on our power grid or economic infrastructure could be responded to with military force. This is a necessary warning to the Russians and Chinese.

    So this explains why Hillary has been dropping bombs in her bathroom at home

    Clearly a decisive counter-attack on the hackers' efforts on her home server

    This was a week ago. We've moved on to a dozen other ridiculous Trump things since then.

    This is in no way Trump's fault, but it's still great.
    If Hilary pledges taco trucks on every corner, I'll vote for her.
