    Agreed, the Access Hollywood video is not a gaffe. Threatening to sue the dozen women who have accused him of inappropriate sexual contact is a gaffe. I don't want to get legalistic about it. The original point I was making was that every candidate will endure attacks from the opposition, some legit and some bs. Good candidates don't bring more grief upon themselves needlessly and they triage quickly and effectively when controversy strikes. Clinton has been very good at both of these things. In a hypothetical head-to-head with Kasich, the poise and the professionalism of her campaign would be the same. Kasich's would be up there too so it'd be a very different fight than the one with Trump. But, I think she puts up a good fight because she doesn't make many mistakes. The reason why she's so disliked is that her political opponents have been lambasting her for forever. Some of it is deserved, so it's not about that. But, she's been the focus of hyper-vigilant scrutiny and criticism for two decades. They've trained people not to like her. People have not managed to acquire this animosity of her all on their own.

    Over the wall they go. I'll happily hunt down those illegal scums if I have to.

    Violence toward Trump supporters and conservatives in general has gone on for too long. Wouldn't surprise me if one finally snaps and takes out his frustration.

    RL, you're actually an excellent example of why gun control is so important. This kind of violent rhetoric is very dangerous but it's really become very emblematic of Trumpanzees.

    Message board rhetoric and being dangerous with a gun are quite different. Drama queen.

    That was my reaction after seeing BLM yet again attack another Trump supporter.

    Stop making excuses. You're a Republican, allegedly, and you're supposed to be personally accountable.

    The rhetoric tends to precede the violence and not the other way around. Dumbo king.

    Not making excuse just pointing out the violent leftists. When someone faces real violence don't be surprised if he hits back violently .

    So all the videos you've posted haven't been "real violence" and yet you call those people animals that deserve to die. I guess that makes them not really violent leftists. I'm sure everyone appreciates how much time and effort you've put into alerting us about nothing of significance. It really plays into the idea that you're a bit unhinged and have difficulty keeping your emotions under control.

    You were fearmongering on someone getting angry on a message board. Interesting.

    Saying people are animals and deserve to die isn't mere anger but it's really not surprising that you don't grasp the link between violent rhetoric and violence. Of course Trumpanzees are prone to dismiss anything they don't understand because if it's not in a common sense youtube video it's not real. Derp.

    I agree, and at this juncture, we're probably emphasizing which of our points as being the bigger factor towards Hillary's current success. Her campaign like the '15 Warriors, a good team that capitalized upon a splendid run of luck from weakened opponents. Jeb and even Cruz would be candidates that make Johnson a forethought among Conservatives who aren't staying home and make this race interesting (or scarier).

    I still don't think her resolve or discipline is commendable. After all she disappeared for a few months and allowed Trump to collapse on his own bloated weight, so she wasn't forced into positions that would cause trouble later on (something like TPP with more frequency and harder wedges), It could be above average, but her meltdowns during the 08 primaries are still fresh in recent memory.

    Any one want to guess who the first person this year to get arrested for voter fraud supports?
