Maybe Trump is onto something with his, "repeal the first amendment and put the press in camps" platform.....

Luckily Clinton hates them too so there's a good chance they start getting shut out of things for being dumbass shitlords no matter who wins

In a country with a free press, the nature of that press is surely a reflection of the population and the culture. I mean, it looks like there simply isn't a great deal of demand or stomach for a more aggressive press, otherwise that aggressive press would exist.

Several Hispanic Trump surrogates reconsider support

quote:

“I was a strong supporter of Donald Trump when I believed he was going to address the immigration problem realistically and compassionately,” said Monty, a Houston attorney who has aggressively made the Latino case for Trump. “What I heard today was not realistic and not compassionate.”

He withdrew from the board following Trump’s speech in Phoenix
, which was heavy on calls for border security and emphasized that all immigrants in the country illegally were subject to deportation.

When we met [earlier in August] he was going to approach this issue with a realistic plan, a compassionate plan, with a plan that was not disruptive to the immigrants that were here that were not lawbreakers,” said Monty, one of the Latino leaders who met with the candidate at Trump Tower recently, a gathering at which Trump reportedly softened his tone toward undocumented immigrants already in the country. “He didn’t deliver any of that.

She got ripped apart for drawing an equivalence between Anthony Weiner cheating on Huma and Bannon beating his ex-wife, too. And deservedly. She's quickly climbing the ranks of my "least favorite reporter" standings.


The media dragging HRC through the mud for 25 years, forcing false equivalencies and horse-race garbage between her campaign and Trump's, and then having the gall to whine about HRC being reluctant to grant them access is one of the most infuriating things about this cycle for me. Why the gently caress should she willingly subject herself to more of that bullshit?

Probably something like 'English is my first language and I have a job, so this doesn't have anything to do with me.' The idea that all Hispanics are single issue voters about immigration is kind of silly, but Trump's rhetoric is heated and racist enough that even the assimilated second and third generation immigrants are finding it hard to justify sticking around now.

If Stein's goal is to drag the democratic party to the left by forcing them not take the votes of progressives for granted, then I guess this makes sense.

Her goal however should be to get to the green party to 15% by campaigning in safe blue states like Minnesota, Vermont and California where a bunch of white liberal voters won't get the feel bads that they might be handing their state to Trump if they don't vote Clinton.

LOL if you think her goal is anything more than more press for Jill Stein. Third party candidates don't really have a history of being party loyalists once they stop running themselves, and 15% very obviously isn't happening this election.
