the irony that he ended up stealing the GOP from themselves was not lost on me. I have been revolted by his persona since he crawled into the light in the 90's. I never watched 'the apprentice' because a commercial was sufficient to bring the bile up.

What, is she no longer "proud of her country for the first time"?

At least she is proud of her country... Trump thinks our nation is a shithole and is working hard to make that a reality.

Her pride in country is completely situational and she won't be again as soon as the "wrong" person gets the Presidency.

Or until you find the next thing she says that you take out of context.

"For the first time in my adult life, I am really proud of my country because it feels like hope is finally making a comeback,"

Yeah, that context.

Now make yourself an African American woman and think about that for a while. Then get back to us in 50 years.

Or not.

Please do not/

You're going for post count I guess, almost nothing you post has a ring of trying to convince anyone of a thing.

What, did you need to divert from the subject so soon?

Her lack of pride in her country speaks directly to how much credibility you should put in her opinions. It's pretty obvious she's not going to think highly of a white dude running for President given her statement of 8 years ago.

Trump is the one who has repeatedly shown a lack of pride in country.

Even his slogan.

Or has that not sunk in yet.

Are you really not self-aware enough to see how laughably weak your rhetorical positions so often are? If you're not even trying, why are you posting?

I guess you're not self-aware enough to stop spamming the forum with what amounts to political advertising.

I'm sure you are more than welcome to start a thread of you're own, if you are so on fire with passion and find valid reasons for whoever you're backing.

Cheap shots seem more like you're MO.

Deflection and derailing is a way of life for glenn1... especially when the topic reflects poorly on his beliefs. It's all he has left...

Case in point: weak nonsense troll by you . . . after all, this is the forum where posters energetically advocate for their political beliefs. Have you been unaware of this all these years? Or, are you really that dimwitted? I'll just be kind and go with "weak to the point of embarrassing."

No thanks, unlike Perknose I don't feel a need to create fully 1/7th of all threads in ATPN in the last few days (13 threads out of 100) having basically the exact same topic. Perhaps a Mayne style post limit should be considered.

That's because the forum is rigged against you.

Now go put on your 2nd amendment panties.

ABC News radio just reported on Trump attacking his accusers and then following that attack with an attack on Hillary for attacking Bill's accusers...lol! Trump just flew the loop-the-loop-the-loop! ABC News radio also reported that someone yelled "rapist!" at Bill Clinton while he was speaking at a Hillary rally. The guy who did it was later interviewed and said that he did it in hopes of a payoff from Alex Jones.

Kids, don't ever do conservative... your brains will wither away if you do.

There are different ways to advocate something. Some prefer a mixture of sycophantic worship and appeals to catchy one-liners (you), others try to advocate using things resembling actual arguments. Why is anyone compelled to vote for Clinton when the Clinton campaign wanted him to be the Republican candidate? Clinton will have no problem destroying Trump come election day. Your constant "With us or against us" bullshit is tiring, Perky.

Michelle's speech was undoubtedly one of the best if not the best of this entire election cycle.
Too bad only one side will every hear it or take the time to listen.
Obama gave a similar great speech in Ohio Thursday night.
A speech you will never see or hear repeated on Fox News or on the Rush Limbaugh show.

When we get thru this election, if we get thru this election, I for one will miss the words of wisdom from the great Obama democratic party and the philosophy of soul from the Obama democrat party.

Abraham Lincoln may be dead and long gone, but his spirit is very much alive in the words of Michelle and Barack Obama.
And republicans of Donald Trump can pretend and attempt all they want to hijack the wisdom of Abraham Lincoln, but they can never own it.
Because the words of Mr Lincoln are an alien voice to them.
The Republicans of Donald Trump are not the soul of Mr Lincoln. Nor is Mr Lincoln's soul within them.

In your reply you advocated nothing, stood for nothing, and typed nothing but an empty ad hominem attack on me referencing "using things resembling actual arguments" while putting forth NONE yourself. Congratulations.

Relentlessly sounding the alarm against arguably the worst Presidential candidate ever and his horde of ugly-minded supporters is not bullshit. Trump is bullshit. And so was your petulant little post.

That's some truly lame-ass bullshit, blaming Clinton for Trump. It's almost as lame as ignoring what Michelle said.
