    Because you don't agree with it, it's a lie?

    Is it the media job, even if they are capable, and they aren't, to pick and choose polls that are "right"? Others than bogus non scientific polls, I said they just report them and that's all they should be doing as for polls.

    You or anyone picking a particular poll is itself not bias? It's exactly that a singleor few poll maybe completely off that a system of weighting all science based polls is a much better approach.

    Amazing speech by Donald Trump. It's obvious Trump will end Washington's corruption.

    I know you support Trump blindly so this will be lost on you but responding to this for general discussion.

    Trump continually says Clinton just talks but hasn't done anything. Trump is saying a lot of things but there is nothing in his background that indicates he will address things like closing tax loopholes, cleaning up regulation, addressing political largesse, and etc.. Trump has bragged about taking advantage of those things and says he's smart to do so. If that is true why then would he address those things that have so greatly benefitted him and which he says smart people should do.

    Trump acts like he has had no choice but to take advantage of those things but no one ever forced him to take advantage of the tax code or donate to candidates to curry favor. If we talk about all talk and not doing anything Trump is bragging that as a prominent businessman he has been part of the problems he now criticizes.

    As Warren Buffet recently showed you can still be successful without taking advantage of every loophole out there if you believe that isn't right. Trump didn't he's not just admitting but celebrating the fact that in spite of his talk when it comes down to it he will benefit as much from a system that he says he can clean up.

    If he did that speech year around he would be up 20 points right now.

    It was a message that would resonate with everyone.

    You think she cares about your 10 bucks? 100 dollars and she'll do cartwheels for you but that's the lowest she can go.

    Like Trump has said during the debates, you don't like it change the laws. Trump as a businessman has one goal and that is to make as much as money as he can. Trump is not the first businessman to use tax loopholes to his advantage. Everyone including yourself tries to pay as little as possible and Trump is no different.

    Yes. Probably. But that's how dumb your candidate is. Every time he tries to do the right thing, he ****s it up. AND HE ALONE IS TO BLAME- if he were any semblance of a decent human being, he'd be doing much better.

    He's like the ******* friend or partner you have when you have to say things like, "If you get to know them, they're great," or have to scrape the bottom of the barrel for any type of compliment. No more excuses- he is what he is.

    Paying little and paying nothing aren't the same. There's the court of law, and there's the court of public opinion. And the former doesn't elect Presidential candidates (well, except maybe in 2000). Many folks don't take too kindly to knowing that they're paying a significant portion of their income to income taxes and Mr. Trump apparently is not.

    You seem to be excusing Mr. Trump for something he did because it is not illegal. It's not illegal to cheat on your wife. Yet, you seem to hold that against Mr. Clinton, ya hypocrite. Even worse are the idiots that use it against Mrs. Clinton. Hypocrisy.

    I'm only brought up Bill because your side keeps bringing Trump's past. I personally could care less about Bill.

    Since we're on the subject of public opinion

    60 percent of Americans don't trust Hillary
    56 percent of Americans think Hillary should have been disciplined for deleting her emails
    56 percent of Americans have unfavorable impression of Hillary

    So, you think that someone stating on tape that it is OK to commit sexual assault is the same as someone having an affair? Got it.

    If you actually believe that, what does that say about the stupidity of your candidate?
