***Official Political Discussion Thread***

The polls are getting closer. This is gonna an interesting election day to say the least

Polls tightening closer to Election Day is completely normal. It's almost the rule. Per folks that track polls and stats, it'd be odd if this didn't happen. Even before Comey, HRC's lead was shrinking, slowly but surely.

That said, most polls show a clear advantage for HRC. I don't believe it's going to be as interesting as we all thought. Trump still gets washed IMO (I hope? :lol).

The aftermath is what'll be interesting to see.

The lulz is gonna be on a level we've never seen before.
 
I'm ready to cry watching this. It completely exposes what it so great about Obama and what is so wrong about Trump. The contrast is unmistakable: one man, born into a country racist against him, clearly espouses the wisdom of the founders and what makes this country great. The other, half-man half-steaming piece of orange ****, born into great wealth and privilege, who has left behind a legacy of selfish destruction, blatantly lies and repeatedly ***** on the principles of this great country.

:{

This is video from a couple rallies. One where Obama deals with a protestor in a manner befitting our President. In the other, Trump lies about it.



:x

FOH Trump.

Even though I don't think trump ever getting this close to the whitehouse was his plan, and would like to think the second it is over hand he will just peace out and do his TV channel, I feel like trump is going to drag this out regardless of if it is close or not.

He will still have rallies on how the election was rigged lol.

If we believe the polls completely -- the race has tightened. Hillary still has the clear advantage but it's close enough that, within the polling errors, Trump could win. It's not quite a coin toss but close.

If we read into the early voting, however, an argument can be made that Hillary may still be trending towards a blow-out victory. But it's much harder to conclude the results from just the early votes. We'll just have to wait till Tuesday, which I think is about 2 or 3 weeks away.

Lol I took a day off for this election day. After voting I'm probably going to stay at home and follow the election via the Internet and cnn

Nate Silver seems to be really cautious. A couple articles I read seemed to take Nevada as a sign that Hilary got this election in the bag.

Nate is like, wait not so fast. You don't know if all the Democrats voting early in Nevada are necessarily voting for Clinton.

Internets saying there's proof of Alex Jones Stratfor connections in email leaks. Havent looked into it yet.


10% into this book on the History of the FBI...I'm shook. :lol


The FBI, with a president Trump is a truly terrifying notion and the fact that the entire FBI is so eager to make him president makes it doubly terrifying.



I mean the main thesis of the book seems to be that the FBI is in a constant battle against the American people to expand the scope of it's influence, and we really aren't that far removed from FBI being a partisan reactionary authoritarian secret police force.


we could back to a quickness under prsident Trump.


You're just now shook of the FBI? Black folks been tryina tell yall for 60 years :lol
 
Yeah given the FBI's history (COINTELPRO) it doesn't shook me the FBI would be leaning towards someone as authoritarian as Trump they know he would give them more even more power to do even more.
 
FBI, controlling "american" interests within the borders. CIA, controlling "american" interests outside of the borders. Both of those iinterests do not include the interests of anyone who is not white and then male. As stated in the movie everyone else is "just visiting."

I mean I am black, and yeah I'm well aware of black peoples relationship to goverment agents in general.


but I'm talking about a generalized view, the degree to which the FBI has ALWAYS from it's inception been an organism with the central goal of eating away at civil liberties one loop hole at a time.

I was not as informed about that...

Right on the money
 
I mean I hear people say that Comey was ruining the FBI's incredible reputation of independence an non partisanship in eyes of the public.

after reading this I'm like it deserves to be ruined. :lol

Of course. CIA operates on a global level.

It's comical that "we" helped fund, arm, & train the likes of bin laden, hussein, noriega, the late 70s & early 80s Iranian revolution, & they've all come to bite the US in the a** later...

"On Friday, voters headed to drop off their absentee ballots at a voting location in Loudoun County, Virginia, were greeted by a man sporting both a Trump shirt and a gun strapped to his waist, the Huffington Post reported.
"He’s like, 'Who are you going to vote for, crooked Hillary"

And this isn't illegal. I won't have this problem in ny but Tuesday gonna be crazy in certain parts of the country.

That's the thing. If Hillary were to win I feel sorry for all immigrants and minorities Wednesday on in the rural areas, and smaller cities. He has empowered these bigots to beat up, intimidate, and potentially even kill people if the results don't go their way.

Living in NYC we are shielded from all that craziness to some extent. But best believe those sorts of people are still around us. A neighbor of mine is one them.

Without a doubt there are many in ny mostly upstate but the city has its share as well like. Highly doubt any of them here will act out as you say when trump loses Tuesday tho.

Don't forget this recent story from New Mexico:

http://www.salon.com/2016/10/17/new...ts-your-neighbors-will-know-if-democrats-win/

This was done by the New Mexico Republican party themselves. ******* savages.

 I wonder what will be their next tactic in this noble democratic process? Straight up putting death threats into people's mailboxes, threatening their lives if they vote Democrat?

I'm starting to think that this might actually be a good idea:

Just give these yokels their land and laugh at them when they go bankrupt, just like their candidate has done multiple times.

I live in Atlanta and i'm still not taking any chances. Tuesday i'm headed straight home after I leave the gym around 4pm, not staying around on campus late downtown tuesday or wednesday. On our campus they even have a "viewing party" of the election on Tuesday night and one of my boys asked me if I wanted to go...I don't think i've ever said "nope" to anything faster in my life
