Ah, like I said:







A Texas Hiker thread. Questions answered, and responses are 3rd grade "But why???" formulae.
Ad hom attack. He is asking for reasons why you should vote for hillary. What are her major accomplishments?

It's a Texas Hiker thread: engaging him in his patented circular questioning is like engaging you in a simple addition contest.

No one wins.

Off Topic: TH if the boat ever takes you to Massachusetts or Rhode Island lets meet up. We can have a steak and you can tell me how shitty it is vs a Texas steak. This could be a fun meet up.

That would be great, but I no longer work on the boats.

I got tired of being away from home, and there were other issues with the company.

Lets start by enforcing the laws that we arleady have on the books.

Out of the people who are denied a gun purchase, very few of those people are arrested and convicted.

you know it is against the law to try and buy a gun when that person knows they are prohibited from owning a gun?

That reporter that was denied a gun purchase, will he be arrested for trying to buy a gun when he was prohibited? Probably not. All the straw purchases made by reporters, will they be prosecuted? Probably not.

I think a better starting point is 3D printed guns. When does printing parts become a gun, how do we prevent someone who can't own a gun for legitimate reasons from printing a gun? NRA would like to keep people buying guns from established sales channels, I'd assume gun makers would agree. Guys like me don't want to see printed guns. This is low hanging fruit and an easy first step.

**I know 3D printers that can make a gun are prohibitively expensive & printed guns don't work so well but we all know this will change.

Honest question, no trolling.

As a southern right wing, pro-life, pro-gun, pro-work for what you want republican I keep asking myself what has hillary done to deserve all the popularity?

She is better than trump is not an honest answer.

What legislation has hillary introduced that became law that has benefited everyday working people?

What exactly has she done?

sounds like you're voting for nobody.

So nobody has an exact reason why anyone should vote for her?

All I am asking for is an example of what she has done for this nation while holding a public office?

An example of her sponsoring legislation that has helped everyday working people would be nice.

4 divided by 483. You don't work with numbers for a living, I take it? lol

Losses from those bankruptcies dwarf the profits you claimed he made on the other 479.
http://dividendreference.com/articles/2015/1000637/donald-trump-bankruptcies/
Here is just one of them that lost 4 times as much as you claim the other ones made:
The 2009 bankruptcy wiped out more than $1 billion in debt owed to bondholders.

Normal people don't need to start 483 businesses unless they are planning to screw someone, either taxpayers, investors, workers, customers, or bondholders, and then contain the damage.

P.S. Putting you on ignore list to reduce noise, since I find your posts are completely vacuous of facts and reason.

Again its hard to prove so I'm speculating. Trump is an extreme narcissist he doesn't want or need friends but he needs approval & accomplishments and if his odds of becoming the Democratic nominee were greater he would have run as a Democrat. He says what he believes you want to hear. If he was running as a Democrat he'd speak very differently. Even people who have known him say campaigning Trump is a different guy some say they barely recognize him the way he talks.

I simply think of when he claimed to be the greatest fundamentalist, then moments later in the same interview he said he has never asked for forgiveness for anything other than some early memory of him apologizing to his Mother(?) for something he forgot about.

No he doesn't--he destroys jobs. Do you respect a guy that signs contracts then backs out at the last minute, refusing to pay? This guy has destroyed more jobs than he has claimed to create on paper. Those are facts.

Hell, wtf is his most famous catch phrase?

and is not afraid to speak how he feels.

In no way a qualification to be president, especially when everything you feel is pure sewage. A lot of you conservatives confuse bullying and egomania with "strength" and some quality metric of leadership. None of that is, and it is certainly disqualifying for a president.



So, tell us some legislation that Trump has passed for this country or one thing he has done to better people in the USA?

Is this what happens when Texashiker turns on hyperthreading? We get a single core, two-threaded feed of unadulterated pablum?

As a writer, I would not have a problem to write a "speech" like Trump did.

I could, for instance, propose to you that I create "lots of jobs" and make it sound just totally awesome.

However I will not tell you that those jobs would be wiping my a$$ on the toilet for $2/hr..and of course no health insurance or whatever benefits.

You know, writing together some promises in some flowery language and make you appear like Jesus Christ with solutions for *everything* is actually pretty easy. All you need is some marketing skills.

Maybe you can let the audience know *how exactly* Trump will be creating jobs?

It's especially crappy given much of Bill's attributed success was due to an economy he really had little to do with. Sheeple are sheeple though...
He didn't fuck it up at least. That's not a likely outcome with Trump.

My biggest motivation. Trump is a sick authoritarian.

I would likely vote for Hillary regardless, but there's no question my largest motivation is ensuring Trump never becomes President. That has the potential to be truly catastrophic for our republic. As it happens I also think Hillary is extremely bright and I fundamentally do trust her motivations. She is far from perfect but I think she's a reasonably strong candidate and would be a reasonably strong President.

neither of those things qualify any one to be president.

epic troll thread though. OP is a definite hipster. Trying to rationalize such a terrible, terrible choice.

Her stance on abortion and gun controls means I can not vote for her. There are certain issues that my morals and values prohibit me from supporting.

I simply do not understand why anyone would vote for hillary.

Has hillary "ever" shown a trace of morals and values?

But you can vote for someone who advocates violence against citizens who don't agree with him.

Your morals are highly selective.
