    And you know he is supported by them how? Please show the proof of this "link". Not some rant or supposition or DNC talking point...but real evidence. After all, that's what Clinton supporters INSIST upon with regards to any scandal involving Clinton right?

    (If you decide to try, be careful...remember the NYT, WaPo, MSNBC, CNN, Huff Post, Vox, Politico (among others) have already been shown to be propaganda tools of the Clinton campaign and DNC. Knock yourself out!)

    So because I disagree with "your choice" of Presidential candidates you suggest I should simply get out of the country I was born in. I see.

    I would never do that. Unlike the lefty actors/actresses/entertainers the liberals swoon over, I would rather stay and fight for my political point of view to be recognized. And I certainly would never encourage those patriots who have a different point of view from me to leave our country if they don't get their way. That's the cowards way out and encourages 1 party control with media control...like in Russia or China.

    I would note however that your suggestion to encourage a fellow citizen to leave the country seems awfully dark. Trump encourages sending home people who aren't citizens. You're suggesting sending away actual citizens. Hypocrisy...thy name is Calurker.

    And they say Trump is the scary one....

    Well, if you are going to pull the "the whole world is looney except for me" line, then please allow me to introduce you to another, rare, voice of reason: http://www.globaltimes.cn/content/1010318.shtml

    Did you write this diatri..., I mean, prescient observation for Global Times (you know, China's official overseas newspaper)?

    'cause you sound exactly like it. I think you might have found your soul mate.

    You remind me of those poor saps that ushered Stalin and Mao into power 70 years ago.

    Putin and Xi thank you.

    You are an "American" only in name. What sets our country apart from all those that have come before in history is that, so far, we have always managed to do the right thing, and not give in to the baser human instincts of avarice, cowardice and indifference. Keep on believing that you are "American" because a piece of paper says so. But we see you for who you truly are; no different from the same people who remained silent, hoped to benefit from or actively aided and abetted the rise of extremism and totalitarianism throughout history.

    I notice you turned down the chance to "prove" Trump is connected to Russia and China.

    I bet you're the type that thinks Bush "did" 9/11 too. Go get with your truther friends. They will love you.

    ROFL. You see me for who I am? Ok bud. Whatever you say.

    Only one person here has suggested something as unamerican as kicking citizens out of America. And it isn't me...

    The only thing I need to prove is Commies love Trump. And you love Trump. Maybe you should move to Russia or China. And please take Trump with you.

    Still haven't said how you are different from China and Russia. I can't tell the difference.

    I see you're worried about Communism influencing our government.

    Show me your posts where you are concerned with this.

    The USofA straight up sucks at colonialism. The Brits did Australia right: shipped their assholes over and left them alone. They tried it in North America but gave them too much room to expand and that's how we ended up with Florida. It's too late for Cuba, I'm afraid, there's not enough landmass for the lardasses.

    Make Greenland Great Again!?

    LOL, of the innumerable reasons to vote Clinton, Trump will do better in the Crimea is the obvious best one - since he denied Russia even invaded it, two years after it happened, so as with most things that the Hillary Haters & Trumpers like yourself spew forth, it relies on fantasy and alternate reality.

    Enjoy your loss this week, I know I certainly will.

    the republican nominee for president is a reality tv star.

    republicans constantly complain about how hollywood is a bunch of liberals and the democratic party "swoons" over celebrities, yet the republicans nominated a freaking reality tv show star to be president.

    actually, it is donald trump who has aligned himself with alex jones, the leader of the "truther" movement.

    I agree with you that I don't think there is any direct connection between the Trump campaign and Russia or the PRC. I think this is more a matter of a confluence of interests where the Russians don't like Clinton and see an opportunity to create mischief in the US election.

    That said I think to throw out the McCarthyism charge is hypocritical consider how much of Trump's rhetoric follows the McCarthy playbook with frankly paranoid rantings of outside forces out trying to control the country.

    Interesting, I logged in to actually defend TheresTheDagger from calurker, only to find that calurker must be on my ignore list. At any rate, saying people can't call themselves Americans (or similar) is the exact opposite of useful utterance into the e-sphere or otherwise. I disagree with TheresTheDagger on many topics, including several in this thread, but there's no part of me who wants to denounce his citizenship compared to mine or some other liberal's, etc, etc. All this rhetoric pushes us closer to places we don't want to be (internal cold war or worse), instead of places we would all actually like to be (an active, open, functional democracy).

    ON TOPIC, I think in my slow way I figured out what Comey was doing. It came to me last night while I watching Werner Herzog's vulcanism movie, Into the Inferno, at the Castro Theater in San Francisco. Under pressure, Comey did this little charade (both letters, including their timing) to help GOP chances to retain the Senate while not really helping Trump's chances that much.

    GOP Senate retention chances went from 25% to 50% (according to 538 model) in the week after his first letter.

    If you read the totality of posts between myself and Calurker you'll see he was essentially calling me a communist sympathizer because I'm voting for Trump over Clinton on a lesser of 2 evils choice. He's either a huge troll or engaging in McCarthyism.
