Obviously Drumpf is working with BLM. Drumpf promised there would be riots if he doesn't win and now BLM promises riots if he does win. Together they ensure we'll have riots.
In a time when the ******* Congress can't do their ******* job and consider a Supreme Court nominee for a full year because somehow now they've decided you're a lame duck president for your entire term, Drumpf brings us the unity that this country so desperately needs.

There is so much wrong with the health insurance-coffee comparison, I needed to have an extra cup of coffee and gather my thoughts. Here goes:
- Coffee is cheap. It is free (or zero priced if you want to use econ jargon) in many places, a regular drip coffee is a buck or two, a Venti Latte at Starbucks is about five bucks, premium coffees are about ten and the most expensive cup of coffee I've ever had was about twenty dollars. Hospitals bill $20 for individual band-aids and tongue compressors. If someone working for three hours making the minimum wage could afford to buy a cure for leukemia, then coffee and health care comparisons would make more sense.
- People generally know when they will be buying coffee, most people buy or brew a cup or two in the morning, maybe another cup in the mid morning and perhaps one more in the afternoon. With healthcare most of the demand is unexpected. Some elective surgeries, checkups, pregnancies and vaccinations can be anticipated but the most expensive types of health care are unplanned things like burns, heart attacks, strokes, car accidents, premature births, cancer and appendicitis.
- Coffee customers like to drink coffee every day and they enjoy being in coffee houses while most people would prefer to never be in a hospital or doctor's office at all.
- If you cannot afford coffee, I'm sorry but you will not die from a lack of coffee. With healthcare, that is not the case.
- You can make comparable or superior coffee in your own home. With healthcare, you have to go to a professional for anything serious.
- You do not have to go to school for decades to become a barista and there is no barista association of America who uses the power of the state to limit the supply of baristas, schools that train baristas and bars on immigration for foreign baristas.
- The coffee bean distributors do not buy off politicians who allow there to be a state protected monopoly on coffee beans and thus a 10,000% mark up.
- It is easy to open a new coffee house, it takes lots of money and political pull to open a hospital or even a doctor's office.
- Coffee is a search good and an experience good, that is to say you can tell if you coffee is good from the smell of the brewing process and if that is not the case, you will know it is good after taking a few sips. Healthcare is a usually a credence good, you probably will not know its quality even after the goods and service have been rendered.
Coffee both in its wholesaling of beans and in the retailing of brewed coffee is one of the most perfect (in terms of economics) markets out there. So it makes sense that conservatives, who often times have a rudimentary understanding of econ (which is based around perfect markets) would compare healthcare to the coffee business.

I get most of her sentiment but that start off was all lies. America was not built on decency, community, and concern for our neighbors. It was built on slave labor, treachery, and greed.
There's always 2 Americas. The America we think we are/sometimes aspire to be and the America we actually are.
I wish we'd keep it real more often. Especially historians. Trump's popularity and leading votes is just a reflection of the part of America we are; racist, xenophobes, dumb, easily manipulated, violent, and desperate. When you get an honest look at America you realize all that big talk is just bluster.
As for why we don't want him, yeah that's all true. We don't want his ilk to represent us on a global stage or make crucial decisions on an executive level. She basically broke it all down to constantly calling him a loser That's kinda playing Trump's game.
He's winning off of rhetoric and charisma. If you want to stop a con man you have to completely expose his con. That's hard to do in the political arena by a politician. Given the whole game is lies and cons not being revealed and just forgotten over time.

One thing I can't stand is when these leftists can't admit Hilary's wrong doing in comparison to Trump. She is so corrupt it isn't even funny

I love Senator Warren but clearly rudimentary American History is not a requirement for being a Harvard Law professor. Trump is neither an anomaly among Conservatives or in American politics at large. His elaborate comb over and feigned working class modes of speech make him look and sound different from other politicians. However, his message is quintessentially American. He will bring minorities to heel, he will increase the wages of the white working man without asking anything of their bosses, he will restore American manhood's lost honor through conquest and brutality and he can solve the most intractable of problems with his force of personality. He is the personification of the white American masculinity.

Minorities to heel? What are you talking about? This sounds idiotic if not worse.
White people are not the only people that would get increased wages. Another racist idiotic sounding comparison that isn't anything but a lie and assumption
How do you propose defeating a terrorist organization? By taking them out to lunch? sheesh

Let me ask you something. You weren't born in this country. Yet you voluntarily decided to come to this evil, nasty, racist, sexist, indecent, unfair, bigoted, white priveledge filled, hateful cesspool. Why come here and voluntarily become a citizen of such an evil place?
