regarding hillary you said
“calculating liar and has been that way all her career and to award with the presidency is shameful.”
Now I agree whole-heartedly. However that is the way of politicians, they lie.
Tom Friedman explained the difference well
” What is grating about Hillary is that her prevarications seem so unnecessary and often insult our intelligence. But they are not about existential issues. As for Trump, his lies are industrial size and often contradict each other. But there is no theory behind his lies, except what will advance him, which is why Trump is only scary if he wins. Otherwise, his candidacy will leave no ideas behind. It will just be a reality TV show that got canceled.”
Trump has praised Putin, Saddam Hussein Qaddafi and Kim jung un. He has on more than one occasion advocated for war crimes. He has downplayed chemical weapon use as not a big deal.
Are we really having this conversation?
Yes Hillary is a liar. Yes she isnt trustworthy. But war crimes?!
forget the fact that many of Trump’s supporters are antisemitic and soem are already pronouncing his victory as the beginning of the 4th reich(!!). although he has on more than one occasion shown a reluctance to condemn them. I grant he isnt an antisemite. He is pro-trump that is it.
Forget that.
War crimes Should be a non-starter.
