Most insane conspiracy theory I have heard all year. The woman who was on stage debating Trump was not even Hillary at all. It was another body double. I felt sick reading that. It's the stupidest opinion I could possibly imagine. An actress who can convince millions of people to be a well known public figure for several hours while also memorizing countless political facts, keeping her calm around Donnie and baiting him so much, would be by far the most competent person alive. I absolutely lost all political respect from the person who told me that. Like I can't even argue anything anymore. If he is so far down the hole, nothing I could ever say to him would make the slightest dent into his convictions. I've read countless political articles and tweets and sometimes even their comment sections. But the stupidest conspiracy came from a personal friend. He's not even an uneducated blue collar worker. We recently got out college degrees. I kind of hate him now.

GalacticAcid posted:I read through some really old posts about Trump just to see what people said about him before he became...whatever the gently caress he is. Hahaha! Just imagine Donald read that sentence and for that reason alone he decided he must become president. Because not even he can retroactively make his grandparents that rich. He doesn't really seem interested in the policies, paperwork, presidential salary, stress, living in the white house, meeting foreign leaders, keeping any of his promises, or looking presidential in any form whatsoever. This is probably the only perk he actually wants. On the other hand if he was president there might be a portrait of him in every mayor public office space and military base.

At this point i'm genuinely interested what Asange has to say. Not because I think it will be anything worth my time, but because I want to know just how disappointing it is. "In fifth grade, Clinton cheated on a math test."

Yes, no one ever claimed that he broke the law with this. This is perfectly legal and theoretically there isn't a problem in getting the best deal for yourself. The thing everyone hates is the fact that this is possible. Basically this is saying that a rich person can gamble away tons of money and destroy countless jobs. But the government pays for it because he would feel bad otherwise. The US tax code is broken, but Donald wants to lower even more taxes which only affect people like himself. Hillary will probably argue along those lines. His intentions could not be clearer if he proposed a special exception on taxes for anyone who is directly related to himself.

Seriously though. If that was all Assange had to "leak" he might be a bigger narcissist than Trump. But to be fair, he lives in social isolation in a tiny room. It's not actually surprising to get mad under those circumstances. He doesn't really have anyone who would look at such stuff critically and ask: "Julian do you really think that this is as earth shattering as you claim?" But maybe it was just a false flag´operation to lure us into thinking we are safe. The real news might drop soon. Any day now.

fknlo posted:Who the gently caress are you people that think she was actually serious about drone striking some random rapist idiot in a foreign embassy in loving London? Has anyone here actually implied that we'd take this at face value? Of course it was a stupid joke. People are either feigning shock over how tasteless it was or they believe Clinton strangled Scalia and 50 other people with her bare hands anyway. I can sorta understand how their cognitive bias works: "She killed a supreme court judge, and wasn't even put on trial for it. Of course she could and would bomb an embassy in London without any repercussions."

If Trump had been less than a burning heap of acid sludge in the first debate the spin would have been that he outperformed expectations. If he isn't at least mediocre now, the spin will be that he didn't manage to improve. Losing the first debate so significantly that even the foxnewspoll showed it left him in a disadvantageous position.

And is it legal everywhere? The easiest way would probably to search "betting on presidential race" or something like that. Depending on where you live you will get a bunch of betting sites. Obviously you want to chose the one which gives the biggest payoff. But I have no clue how taxation on betting wins works and wehter it's legal wherever you are. ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Yeah that is probably a better answer.
