If you want to know why there hasn't been any inquiries, go ask them, I am not interested.

What I am interested in, is that here we have, Hillary Clinton, a pathological liar, who is running for President and has told lie after lie, to the American people, she is not fit to run for the Presidency.

I am not saying Trump is the perfect candidate either but Hillary Clinton would make an absolutely horrendous President, given her past bad errors of judgement on many things while she was Secretary of State.

But the fact Trump 1) lies 2) has said horrible things and 3) seems rather unhinged on the campaign trial is better?

He is not a polished orator. Consequently, he often talks a lot of rubbish. He is however, a patriot imo, and isn't part of the machine. I think that if he gets in it'll upset the establishments apple cart......which is, imo, a good thing. That's why all and sundry are shouting blue murder at the prospect of Trump getting is and all that can be done to smear him is being done.

That tape was not poor speaking. Nor what he has said about other women. Or Mexicans.

A patriot doesn't say an election is rigged or suck up to Russia. Or what he said about McCain. That's where we are though. Someone who dodged the draft has a go at someone who didnt and went through torture is called a patriot.

We're judging Trump by this own actions and words. Someone who boasts of forcing themselves on women is not a good man.

Get real. Not reading Biased media talk. Especially when it has HC saying she told no lies at all during a debate.

Really?

http://www.politifact.com/personalities/donald-trump/

And he bankrupts small US businesses by not paying his bills.

http://correctrecord.org/fact-check-...ing-his-bills/

And he criticises companies for off-shoring jobs, but does the same himself.

http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/re...rticle/2585268

Or are they all part of the conspiracy?

A Woman who lies about her emails and the issues surrounding Benghazi, a woman who got an alleged pedophile off a rape charge of a 12 year old girl and then is seen laughing about it, is not a good woman.

You know full well she was a public defender, had to take the case, didn't 'get the guy off' and that she was laughing about stuff that happened on the case and not the victim or the accused.

http://www.snopes.com/hillary-clinto...ghed-about-it/

Quote:
WHAT'S TRUE: In 1975, young lawyer Hillary Rodham was appointed to represent a defendant charged with raping a 12-year-old girl. Clinton reluctantly took on the case, which ended with a plea bargain for the defendant, and later chuckled about some aspects of the case when discussing it years later.

WHAT'S FALSE: Hillary Clinton did not volunteer to be the defendant's lawyer, she did not laugh about the case's outcome, she did not assert that the complainant "made up the rape story," she did not claim she knew the defendant to be guilty, and she did not "free" the defendant.
You're saying 'others are sucked in' but you're refusing to read Hugh's links and you're disseminating discredited tropes.
