    I watched the video, but I didn't see any cock-eyed looking. That said maybe if I watched it at a slower speed I would catch it.

    Watch her left eye. It's possible she's focusing on a transparent display screen for a teleprompter, but it would have to be pretty close.

    Watch it on mute. The voice is distracting.

    So Hillary's eyeball goes screwy and then later she cancels another event.

    And you remember way back when Hillary wore those funky glasses?

    They help with lazy eye. The same eye in Hillary (the left one) that we see in this video acting screwy. Here's a pic of the glasses. Only the left eye has the special lenses.

    @oldfella1962 look at 1:07 in the video. It's the most clear example of it. Her left eye turns in towards her nose while her right eye is still looking straight.

    Her left eye went lazy as the result of a stroke and/or blood clot that caused brain damage.

    Trump says there's nothing like doing stuff with other people's money. If his supporters had a trace of introspection they might notice this is precisely what many of them have been railing against the Federal government for doing, but they won't.

    Of course, Trump was talking about getting other nations to pay for his schemes (in this case, making the Gulf states pay for his "extreme vetting" programmes) but the message is clear - this man is constantly on the lookout for ways of stiffing folk and conning investors. You think he's not gonna use your taxes for his own benefit when he's in office?

    So you're saying there's a chance Trump might be corrupt?

    Gee, better change my vote to Hillary. Tried and true. :rotfl:

    At this point, their posts are worthy of a laugh and immediate dismissal. No need to waste any effort with a written response to such obvious absurdity. The meltdowns will be delightful.

    You know I don't think you guys understand Trump people.

    They don't give a fuck. They are sick of the elites in Washington on both sides that are in their opinion fucking up the country.

    If you took Trump out and replaced him with say Clint Eastwood and Eastwood took no shit and threw political punches like Trump is doing the people would be supporting Eastwood.

    Trump is not where he is because of himself. He's where he is because a significant portion of this country is reaching the end of the line with their patience regarding the idiots in Washington DC.

    Trump could not be the nominee in 2012 or 2008. It can only happen now.

    We also see this in on the "left" with Bernie Sanders. I still believe that had Sanders gone after Clinton hard like Trump went after the Republicans he could have been the nominee for the Democrats.

    This is the why it almost doesn't matter what Trump does. He's not going to lose support. It's also why so many on the left are not enthusiastic for Clinton. To many on the left Clinton is part of the Washington elite.

    Do all Brits think the President of the United States has a solitary grip on the federal purse strings or something? He's just going to create a bunch of off-shore corporations and funnel as much tax revenue as possible into them for as long as he can, all by his lonesome? Get real.

    Even when Obama wanted to pour $500 million into Solyndra like a corrupt little tinpot, he still needed help from Congress to do it.

    And Congress is not likely to be receptive to helping Trump. Especially the Democrats.

    Yeah, I know, I get it.
    And being led by emotion over brains is always the precursor to going over the cliff with the rest of the lemming herd.
    Being anti-establishment ain't enough, someone needs a plan.
    "Yay!! Let's burn it all down, and be Rick or Negan!", ain't a plan, it's giving the fuck up.

    No, I think he will push legislation that favours his business, at the expense of the middle class taxpayer. And he'll have a lot of support from the rest of the GOP because lobbyists. Of course I don't believe he can just squirrel taxpayer cash away directly, but his supporters ARE dumb enough to buy his rhetoric about putting more money in the pockets of the working and middle class, when his actions make it clear he'll be the same "tax cuts for the rich and hope for the dropped food off our plates, plebs" stuff they already get.

    What's good for "his business" will in RL also be to the advantage, not the expense, of the middle class taxpayer.

    The US's already had eight years of policies circumscribed by the left's "business is evil" mantra and "business must be kept in its place, which is subordinate to the state" theology.

    Eight years of shit economy more like the UK than any US decade before Obama. The reaction against Obama isn't solely related to Muslim-ball sucking and tickling.

    Wow, when it comes to politics Americans have to be the most stupidly partizan twats on planet earth.

    Why does no-one on the right ever say anything good about anyone on the right? All they EVER do is attack (pathetically) people they perceive as 'on the left'.

    I DARE YOU. I fucking dare you righties to ONLY comment on the right for a week and the lefties to only comment on the left for a week.

    Go-on lets see if you're adult enough
