    Unfortunately, news of this sort could be negative for Clinton. It fits the narrative of the "corrupt, two-party duopoly" that fuels anti-establishment sentiment. If I were Trump, I'd say "Look, the elite families on both sides are in cahoots. Is this the government you want?"

    That corruption is common in Third World countries where ruling families take turns ruling.

    This is well-trodden ground. Under the US Constitution, treaties entered into by the United States constitute the "supreme law of the land". One such treaty is the UN Charter, which establishes the World Court and establishes other restrictions on the kind of international aggression that is represented by a superpower attacking a small nation like Nicaragua.

    And of course, the US did recognise the courts authority - right up until the point where the 1986 ruling went against it.

    So?

    The U.S. is bound by nothing that could damage its interests

    That is simply a natural right of a nation

    Something Rick only understands when he wants to be angry, is that power is the only determinant factor.

    Power is the determinant factor in the ability to flout the law. It isn't the only determinant factor in what the law is, or whether perpetrators such as Reagan or Bush are pieces of shit for doing so.

    So the grand daddy of neocons is voting for Hillary Clinton.

    And her supporters consider this a good thing. :lol:

    A good thing only insofar as it's highlights how broken your party is that it can't even count on the allegiance of it's elders. Even they know you're damaging the Country.

    David Duke of the KKK endorsed Hillary Clinton, too.

    I guess that means the party is definitely in shambles. :walz:

    It's cute the way Ramen tries to frame it as deranged status quo against reform and unicorns. There is plenty of need for reform in this country, but electing a bomb thrower ain't it.

    Bush has always been a one world order puke. His whole damn presidency showed many us that that was his final goal. He also knew that he couldn't do it during his term in office. WE weren't ready, back then. I believe that we're getting really close to it now.

    The fact that you no longer have the support of a significant portion of the movers and shakers within the party is telling and should give you pause, but it won't.

    Trumps whole schtick is bucking the party apparatchiks and special interests. :shrug:

    On the other side - if there's any escalation of enthusiasm for Clinton, a funeral will break out. :bergman:

    You 'have' Alzheimer's either from about your mid twens onwards or not at all. However, the symptoms usually only manifest themselves between 60 and 70. You'll even stay functional for years and years during the first phase. There is also a rare form that will break out at about 40-ish.

    Absolutely. Voting for Trump is like firing your offensive coordinator after two games because your defense sucks, or drinking cyanide to cure a rash. Just because you think you need change doesn't mean that some changes aren't inherently idiotic and obviously worse than the status-quo.

    Voting for Hillary is like sitting during the national anthem then losing your sponsors before going broke from your little boys addiction.

    You should just kill yourself right now to save time.

    If the RNC had just murdered Trump, you wouldn't be in this fix.
    You have only yourself to blame for all of it.

    You are under the delusion that we're stuck with Trump.

    In fact, he's stuck with us. :)
