 Re: Who Will Be President? Utah: Trump (26) vs. Clinton (26) vs. McMullin (22) vs. Johnson (14) vs. Stein (1) This is a lovely poll.

Re: Who Will Be President? If Trump were to somehow win, it's hard to believe Congress would let him get away with anything too awful.

Re: Who Will Be President? I'm just thinking about one step back where it seems kind of incredible actually that on the Republican side they weren't able to put a better candidate than Trump forward.

Re: Who Will Be President? Well, they've had a history of putting up morons. Remember George W. Bush? But I do agree that Trump has found a new level of idiot. If Bush was an 8/10, Trump is a 20/10.

Re: Who Will Be President? I am waiting for the cocaine and sex video of Trump!
And the video where a black woman is stepping to close to Hillary and Hillary calls her a dirty n..ro slut.

Re: Who Will Be President? Thank god for Michelle Obama. I love how she doesn't even dignify Trump's scummy, disgusting ass by saying his name, just calling him "the candidate." Quote: First lady Michelle Obama delivered Thursday an impassioned denunciation of Donald Trump, calling the recently unearthed comments by the Republican presidential nominee "shocking" and "demeaning," and below "basic standards of human decency."
Speaking at a rally for Hillary Clinton in Manchester, New Hampshire, Obama lit into Trump over a video that surfaced last week in which he can be heard talking about being sexually aggressive with women.
"I can't believe I'm saying a candidate for president of the United States has bragged about sexually assaulting women," Obama said.
Obama never addressed Trump by name, referring to him only as a "candidate." Her voice quivered at times as she recalled a meeting earlier this week with young women at the White House.
"I told them they deserve to be treated with dignity and respect," she said.
Obama said the comments made by Trump in the video, which was recorded in 2005, had left her "shaken."
"I can't stop thinking about this," she said. "It has shaken me to my core in a way I could not have predicted."
She added: "I know this is a campaign but this isn't about politics. It's about basic human decency."
In the 2005 video, Trump can be heard describing in graphic terms how he uses his star power to force himself upon women. Since the footage was published last week by The Washington Post, several women have come forward to say that Trump had touched them inappropriately. Trump has denied those allegations, and has dismissed the remarks made in the video as "locker room talk."
At the rally on Thursday, Obama rejected that explanation.
"This was not just a lewd conversation," she said. "It was not just locker room banter. This was a powerful individual talking freely and openly about sexually predatory behavior."
The speech was an uncharacteristically direct attack from the first lady, who also cautioned against a "protest vote."
"If you vote for someone other than Hillary ... you are helping to elect her opponent," Obama said.

Re: Who Will Be President? So when does MOBAMA run for office? She'd win this year in a landslide.

Re: Who Will Be President? Hmmm.....a black woman would be the next step when Hillary wins......Hillary is 68 so she might only do 4 years most likely.....Michelle Obama will then be 56/57......
Btw I just noticed that......did never somebody have a "problem" with the fact that both Hillary and Donald are allready quite old?

Re: Who Will Be President? I think people were particularly looking for an older, more experienced person this time. All three of the last presidents have been pretty young when assuming office.
But yeah sure, being (nearly) 70 and getting elected president is old. My preference would go to a younger candidate sure. It seems though that in general in the presidential race, age and experience are generally favored over youth.
Bernie is 75 even.

Bernie is 75 even. I wouldn't say Trump is old. He may be come the first 13 year old president

Re: Who Will Be President? Weren't Meatloaf and Kid Rock supporting Mitt Romney in 2012? Man. Who knew celebrity support could get worse than that, but it's a steep drop-off to Scott Baio and Curt Schilling.

Re: Who Will Be President? So when Trump loses, does he hold a press conference with Reince Preibus and say "You're Fired! Tune in to Season 10 of the Apprentice! Good night folks."
I could almost tolerate this entire campaign if he came out and admitted it was a long con. Andy Kauffman like.

Re: Who Will Be President? The only way Trump can redeem himself is after it's over, he says "Look, I'm not a Republican, I did this to basically blow up their party and show what broken ideas they have and I did it. Some things came out that I'm not proud of, I'm a scumbag, but it was worth it to fuck with the Republican Party."
