But of course, your narrow-minded view of everything is that if someone votes opposite to you, you class them as stupid or uneducated which I find quite pathetic, IMO.

Meanwhile, Julian Assange has done a very interesting interview just recently describing the same money which funds ISIS, passing through the Clinton Foundation. So perhaps the Americans voting for Trump, because let's face it, why vote for for a candidate that is facing potential impeachment, if she wins anyway, perhaps they are not that stupid after all.

Re: US Election 2016

Prof. Michael Hudson, economist and author speaks to Ross Ashcroft about the difficult choice faced by Americans in the upcoming US elections.

Never heard of this guy before, but what he says is pretty grim.

So you obviously missed Crooked Hillary looking rather unhinged, ranting at a similar protester at her rally the other day...

But let's not forget he is just as class, when he said only eight years ago, Hillary Clinton will say anything to get elected and now he thinks the sun shines out of her ass.

Also, if I was an American Citizen, I'd be questioning the use of Air Force One, which is tax payer funded, to continually campaign for crooked Hillary. How many rallies has he done this week for her ? I'd also be questioning, has he got nothing else better to do at all than campaign for a potential criminal?

The campaign pays for the use of Air Force One. The same question comes up when a President is campaigning for election. They charge some sort of pro-rata fee to the campaign in question.

Let's not let facts get in the way of another childish rant:

FACT CHECK: Air Force One, Who Pays?

Still does not make it right that he is spending all the time in the world trying to get her elected, when she is under FBI Investigation (Again) and facing possible Indictment and Impeachment if Elected.

Not to get too technical but Fox News have retracted that Indictment story: http://www.politico.com/blogs/on-med...-report-230743

What has Fox News got to do with the price of fish ? Far as I am concerned that crooked devil is still under FBI Investigation (Again).

Because you said she would possibly be indicted, which was first said on Fox News (then retracted).

LOL - hence the term 'Possibly' and I haven't mentioned anywhere about Fox News, don't watch it, haven't watched it. The point is still irrelevant either way because she is still <-- important key word here, under FBI Investigation.

Jeez talk about double standards you get on your high horse when the current president uses tax payer money but when Trump does the same it's "irrelevant"

Jeez nothing - It is not double standards at all. If DJT is given a budget to travel, and to carry the Secret Service that protects him then, what is the issue? None at all.

The issue here is. The current serving President is spending time, a lot of time, I might add by the way and money, while in Office, campaigning for a candidate under FBI Investigation. Am I the only one who finds that troubling ? Or again are those rose tinted specs for Hillary, blindling folk again, seems to be the case.

Re: US Election 2016

Chill out Michael, mind the blood pressure! Seems you are looking for all the positives from one side and the negatives from the other.
President Trump will for a while be very amusing, but after a few months be a disaster for the world. Clinton has no more dirt on her than most other US presidents, maybe Obama excepted. Seems to go with the job. Some inconsequential emails not secure? We've probably all done something unintentionally wrong at work. Hardly the multitude of sexual allegations at Trumps door, and his tax avoidance.
