Well, looks like we're getting a lizard presidency. Prepare for insufferable smugness from liberals from coast to coast.

No, I plan on holding her feet to the fire like I did the guy I voted for twice before her and the guy I didn't vote for twice before him. You should join me and the others like me to whip her into shape, it'll be fun.
 
I think even though Clinton is not particularly affable or personable, it will be a similar situation to Obama where liberals did not become disillusioned of their choice until midway into the second term.

Hillary already has really low favourability ratings, while Obama entered office with pretty high approval.
 
Nearly 70% of that debt is owned by United States citizens and corporations through Treasury bonds, considered one of the safest investments on the planet. So those interest payments are going into the pockets of Americans and American businesses and, thus, directly into American economic activity.

Trump is suggesting essentially defaulting on them. That may work for him, just pocket whatever isn't nailed down, declare bankruptcy, and fuck his investors, but it would crater the value of such bonds.
Seriously. Debt at 1.8% can be outpaced by fucking inflation (assuming the world's governments decided inflation was an actual thing and not make believe).

Want to end the world? I don't think an asteroid cracking the planet in half would do the damage of the US defaulting on debt payments like a fucking 70s banana republic. Between this answer and his NATO bullshit a month or so ago, Trump is just dumb enough to cause actual damage. Not the Nazi/rapist/white supremacist/abortion/Russia lover nonsense everyone is chimping about. Potential real apocalyptic damage.

Null would sperg on and on about the New World Order and troons hunting him while taking a shit.
Katsu would probably sperg about the alt-right.
AnOminous would just snark on everyone in the debate and the moderating booth.
@Jaimas would be uninterested because they're not SJW or troons
 
Romney hadn't even written a concession speech because he was so confident he'd win, which was why there was such a delay for him to concede in 2012. No candidate wants to accept defeat. But Trump actually saying he may or may not accept the results of the election on the debate stage is unprecedented in the history of televised debates. I'm sure Ryan and maybe McConnell will say something about it in the coming days.

Not sure what effect it'll have on voters though, or if it'll just be something that drives the news cycle for the next few days before fading in the background when Trump says or does something even stupider.

I've been defending Trump from his views on Islam to wanting to deport all Mexicans to Pussygate. That response to a question which could have been a simple "of course" had to be left ambiguous because of Trump's previous claims that the election will be rigged. That response finally broke me in how cringe-inducing it was. It's over.

I mean fuck Hillary as a person, a politician and as a future commander-in-chief but she's going to be president. Ain't nothin' we can do about it and I really don't believe it'll mean anything more than Trump bitching about it for a month or two after she's inaugurated as Supreme Lizard.
 
This part of the debate kinda perplexed me. It sounds like a muttering of "dozens". Time for conspiracies ahoy.

Mouth says hundreds, voice says dozens.
Hillary is an alien confirmed.
There were more bodies for Bohemian Grove.
Praise Artemis.


Something I learned: If you want to trigger the shit out of Hillary, just say the words "Wiki" and "Leaks" in a sentence.
