Presidential race 2016

[Duchess]

Did you catch the dueling speeches by Trump then Clinton today, Duchess?

I sure did! I appreciated her calm, measured tone. I watched one last week and she was almost hollering, I don't like that in her. I LOVED the way she stated Breitbart headlines verbatim. Aha! I also really liked when she mentioned Dole, McCain, Bush. I thought that was a nice touch. Donald's campaign gives her a wealth of material and her and her staff use it brilliantly. Only my opinion, of course.

Trump looks ridiculous. He sounds ridiculous. Blacks, Muslims, Asians, etc., have got to be viewing him as a joke. Sometimes I feel a tiny bit embarrassed for him, he doesn't have enough sense to feel any for himself. He straight up lies. (I hear the Hillary haters after reading that, I'm just acknowledging you. )

I still don't understand those Republicans who support him, Paul Ryan and that crew. I've read and heard it's because they are trying to protect the down ballot people. I think that's bullshit. If I were a power player in DC I would never be able to respect someone who didn't stand up for their convictions. It astounds me when Republicans in Washington say they don't agree nor approve of Trump yet they say they are voting for him. Paul Ryan said some of Trump's comments were "textbook definition of a racist" and then went on to say he supported him. That just disgusts me to no end.
