Trump or Hillary as President, who else is petrified?

The Philippines are giving us a peak into what having a president with no filter might be like:

I suspect that we will get to see soon enough what a US President with no filter looks like too......

For me...I promise myself in the future to vote for every right wing asshole I can....I can say F*CK YOU to the rest of my fellow gay people too...and I will...with my vote. Two can play this game...and I will do just that 'til I die...

Per Gary Johnson: "And what is Aleppo?"

We sure do know how to pick 'em.

[MENTION=21382]Doofus89[/MENTION], can you not read google news???!!!!

In all charity, find it hard to believe that your post is serious. If you prefer to be the devil's advocate, please do, but read up a bit first.

I completely forgot about this post! So, sorry for the late reply. But, I fail to see how I am misled in anyway...

Point of Confusion: Is Johnson's Johnson the Johnson of your choice or does Johnson act in favor of those who prefer Johnsons?

The options are terrible. But I will hold my breath and go with Trump. Hillary personifies everything wrong in politics. The last 8 years have resulted in the selection of a Trump candidate. I'm not a Trump fan, but Hillary is corrupt to the core and her time as Secretary of state has left the US in a far weaker and dangerous situation.

For the first time in 76 years, the Dallas Morning News has endorsed a Democratic Candidate for President. This is no flippant announcement.

From That newspaper's editorial board:

"There is only one serious candidate on the presidential ballot in November."

"Donald Trump is not qualified to serve as president and does not deserve your vote."

"Resume vs. resume, judgment vs. judgment, this election is no contest."

"In Clinton's eight years in the U.S. Senate, she displayed reach and influence in foreign affairs. Though conservatives like to paint her as nakedly partisan, on Capitol Hill she gained respect from Republicans for working across the aisle: Two-thirds of her bills had GOP co-sponsors and included common ground with some of Congress' most conservative lawmakers.

As President Barack Obama's first secretary of state, she helped make tough calls on the Middle East and the complex struggle against radical Islamic terrorism. It's no accident that hundreds of Republican foreign policy hands back Clinton. She also has the support of dozens of top advisers from previous Republican administrations, including Henry Paulson, John Negroponte, Richard Armitage and Brent Scowcroft. Also on this list is Jim Glassman, the founding executive director of the George W. Bush Institute in Dallas."

If Hillary can be said to be a summary of what's wrong in American politics, then I think it's even more true that Trump is a summary of everything wrong with the American public.

Yea? Look at some of the candidates they have endorsed in previous elections before getting all excited who they are endorsing now....

The point is that the paper represents a certain Republican constituency and that constituency may well pay attention to the editorial position. Whether one agrees with it or not, there is influence at hand and it is being used.
