Hey Democrats: A Vote For Hillary Clinton Is Actually A Vote For Donald Trump





(ANTIMEDIA) San Diego, CA — With California finally mattering in an election season, it might be the final state primary before the Democratic race for president is set in stone. Regardless, recent developments have made one thing astoundingly clear: Donald Trump will almost surely defeat Hillary Clinton in a head to head matchup — and that's why a vote for Hillary Clinton is a vote for Donald Trump.

It may seem crazy to many, but Donald Trump is now leading — for the first time — in an average of national polls pitting the presumptive Republican nominee against Hillary Clinton. These results come at a time when Trump hasn't even started aggressively attacking her yet; after all, he just finished fending off over a dozen Republican primary yeah girl challengers — a feat thought all but impossible by political experts the world over.

Trump is rising and Hillary is sinking, but this is not a new phenomenon for Clinton — she's been sinking ever since she joined the race for the presidency. Operating almost exclusively on name recognition and gender identity alone, Clinton has seen her enormous lead in the polls over Bernie Sanders evaporate in the last several months, with some national polls even placing his popularity ahead of hers.

This should not be all that surprising in hindsight, with an unknown democratic socialist meteorically rising to catch one of the most well-known names in modern American politics. America is fed up with status-quo politics — and Clinton embodies this bad taste, which is now in a majority of Americans' mouths. But Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump don't. The all-but-guaranteed Clinton presidency now faces a fight from Bernie Sanders all the way to the Democratic convention.

Clinton, like Trump, faces a major favorability problem. Well over half of Americans view her unfavorably, and her honesty and likeability ratings are close to record lows. She's got an ongoing FBI problem (read: email scandal). Trump is running to the left of her on foreign policy, trade, and economy — and to the right of her on immigration. These are all issues that are resonating well for Trump and lackluster for Clinton, who has taken flack for everything from her cozy ties to Wall Street and support of NAFTA to the 1994 crime bill she helped Bill Clinton pass when he was in office.

Trump has only been the presumptive nominee for a few weeks, but he's already overtaken Hillary in the national polls. Considering her utter lack of momentum and enthusiasm, it doesn't take a political scientist to understand this equation looks like a sure defeat for Hillary Clinton.

I hate it because religion takes advantage of the ignorant.

I hate it because religion turns good people into racist.

I hate it because religion justifies doing evil things to people.

I hate it because religion is used to make decent, upstanding citizens into murderers.

Religion is and has always been the root of all evil. it should be banned.

The world should commit itself to educating the masses, exposing the fraudsters and imprisoning the scumbags profiting from the gullible.

Oh lord hear my pleas and strike down the proselytizing thieves and charlatans that have for so many years brought pain and suffering to the world.

Amen... 😈

These are exactly the thing that the religion of science theory often does. For example, Big Bang Theory is not true, but even if it were, there is no way under the sun to ever prove that it is true. But NASA and all kinds of other scientists say that Big Bang is true and real. And they often say it without any question at all.

The science religion is the worst of all.

God organizes your thinking according to the prayers of the theists.    Cool

You have a God Complex.  Grin   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_complex

If you only knew God, you would realize that He is very complex. For starters, anyone Who creates a universe like He created this one, would have to be complex beyond understanding.

Cool

EDIT: I looked at the Wikipedia link. This is exactly the way atheists must feel to place themselves above God by stating that He doesn't exist... in the face of nature all around them, and the fact that science has proven His existence.

Science has proven his existence?? hahaha what a bunch of hogwash!! Only thing proven is that you've been brainwashed and are gullible.

Actually, it only proves that you don't care what the truth is, scientifically, or otherwise. Rather, you want to listen to science theories that are not proven to be true, often can never be proven, but make you feel good. Keep on with your science fiction.

There Has Never Been a Movie Like Amerigeddon: Movie Debuts Today





There has never been another movie like it. The accurate portrayal of the threats to America are so stunningly detailed and accurate that even the most aware of current events will be shocked as to the totality of the revelations.

The Plot of the Movie “Amerigeddon”

The backdrop of the movie is situated among an increasingly angry citizenry at home, while America is being turned into a corporation, a corporation primed for a hostile takeover.

The antagonist in the movie is the United Nations, from which the movie makes clear is in charge of the take down and final take over the both the United States government and the American people.

Trump Is God’s Choice for President





Trump cannot win. The American people are lost. We are about to be totally destroyed. Based on what I have learned, these are logical conclusions. This is what my logical mind would have me believe and my logical mind is wrong!

Against All Odds

To date, Donald Trump has defied all odds. He is the only candidate in the moderate era, with a chance at becoming President, who is still his own person. He owns himself and from a Christian perspective, that is problematic. However, this is clearly God’s plan. He is the only man who broke the choke hold on the GOP by the criminal Bush family. We are a nation whose ruler, at the moment, is planning to attack the American people with foreign troops after collapsing the economy. There are plans to attack the American military, who would dare stand with the people, in defense of our culture, Christian traditions and personal liberties.

Essentially, Big Oil is waiting for the price to go up before they sell to the people. But they almost have to. Why? Because the cost of refining leaves them little or no profit (maybe a loss) if they don't get enough $$$ at the pumps.

One of the major differences this time is alternate energy.

In addition, if they sell less, there is less tax money for government. This means that government might put pressure on them to refine and sell.

If only Trump really would be able top conduct a high-level negotiation I'd vote for him, but I think those are just words. It's easy to say the right words and to bring them to life is not easy.

My sentiments about Trump, exactly.

The only reason Trump is popular is that he talks things that comfort and agree with sentiment of the people of the nation. However, I don't see how he can accomplish much of what he says. And I wouldn't want him to accomplish a whole lot more of what he says.

People don't listen or read between the lines. Some of Trump's ideals would take much of their freedom away - the Wall, for example. Imagine the difficulty traveling to Baja or Rocky Point.

Trump's approach to North Korea bucks foreign policy elite





For example, the standard bearer for this elite, and Trump's likely Democratic opponent for president, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, sneered at Trump's "bizarre fascination with foreign strongmen."

Imagine actually talking to difficult countries, as Ronald Reagan successfully did with the Soviet Union! Trump knows that it takes a tough and effective leader to use negotiation and diplomacy instead of the reflexive use of military force, which has marked the weak and insecure presidencies of George W. Bush and Barack Obama.

Donald Trump's Poll Numbers Are Surging. Is Bernie Sanders to Blame?





With no other primary candidates to oppose him and the Republican Party rapidly falling into line, Donald Trump is soaring in national polls, while Hillary Clinton's double-digit lead has evaporated in the space of a month. On Sunday, the presumptive G.O.P. nominee passed Clinton for the first time in a weekly average of head-to-head polls, edging the former secretary of state by 0.2 points—a virtual dead heat that is the result of an undeniable and dramatic shift in recent days. Of the last five polls released since Wednesday, three show Trump in the lead: Fox News has the billionaire winning by 45-42; Rasmussen shows him up 42-37; and the latest ABC News/Washington Post survey leans toward Trump by a 46-44 margin.

A "Trump Bump" among Republicans is not surprising. Despite pockets of resistance among many conservative intellectuals, ashen-faced party leaders are predictably swallowing their pride and embracing the front-runner—even if, like Lindsey Graham, they are too embarrassed to endorse Trump in public. House Speaker Paul Ryan may still be sputtering, but the rank-and-file are already looking ahead to the general election.

Clinton, meanwhile, is growing more unpopular by the minute as she faces an unexpected eleventh-hour rally by Sanders. Last month, in the wake of a Super Tuesday shellacking, the Vermont senator indicated he would be dialing back his attacks on the Democratic front-runner to run an "issue-oriented" campaign. But the cease-fire came to an abrupt end last weekend, when Sanders's supporters revolted at the Nevada state convention, reportedly throwing chairs and hurling insults at Democratic officials they accused of tilting the scales for Hillary. Sanders barely apologized, inveighing against the D.N.C. and terrifying party leaders with his newly belligerent tone. Despite the fact that it is practically impossible for the Vermont senator to catch up Clinton, Democrats are now grappling with the prospect of an ugly, drawn-out fight that could roil their own convention in July.

Fighting a two front war, with Sanders to her left and Trump to her right, Clinton's unfavorables have risen steadily, reaching a new high in the last week. According to Gallup polling, Clinton is now as disliked by Democrats (29 percent unfavorable) and Trump is unpopular with Republicans (30 percent unfavorable). "If you look at the favorability ratings of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, both of them have very, very high unfavorables," Sanders said in an interview Sunday, characterizing the choice as Americans being forced to pick between the lesser of two evils. "If you look at virtually all of the polls done in the last six, seven weeks, in every one of them, nationally polls and statewide polls, we defeat Trump by larger margins—in some cases, significantly larger margins—than does Secretary Clinton," he continued.

Big Oil Companies Have Already Become Dinosaurs





It's been a tough couple of years for Big Oil. Battered by plunging prices, the oil majors have seen their profits sink and their prospects darken. BP lost $3.3 billion in 2015; Shell lost nearly $7.5 billion in the third quarter of 2015 alone, its biggest loss in a decade. Even mighty ExxonMobil saw its profit shrink by half in 2015 from the previous year. The usual oil company response to a period of shrinking profits is to rein in new drilling, cut costs, and wait for prices to rise again. And recent months have seen a modest recovery in oil prices.

But a new report from the influential U.K. think tank Chatham House says the old playbook isn't going to work this time. The problems go way beyond rock-bottom oil prices, and they are unlikely to vanish in a hoped-for recovery. The oil majors, the report says, "cannot assume that, as in the past, all they need to survive is to wait for crude prices to resume an upward direction. The oil markets are going through fundamental structural changes driven by a technological revolution and geopolitical shifts," and the business model that has worked for the last quarter-century is broken.

Americans: A Conquered People: The New Serfs





Members of both political establishments enrich themselves by betraying the American people and serving only the interest of the One Percent. The American people are being driven into the ground purely for the sake of more mega-billions for a handful of super-rich people.

Neither political party is capable of doing anything whatsoever about it, and neither will.

The optimism that I see is that the public's support of outsiders is an indication that the insouciant public is waking up. But Americans will have to do more than wake up, as they cannot rescue themselves via the voting booth. In my opinion, the American people will remain serfs until they wake up to Revolution.

Today Americans exist as a conquered people. They have lost the Bill of Rights, the amendments to the Constitution that protect their liberty. Anyone, other than the One Percent and their political and legal servants, can be picked up without charges and detained indefinitely as during the Dark Ages, when government was unaccountable and no one had any rights. Only those with power were safe. In America today anyone not politically protected can be declared "associated with terrorism" and taken out by a Hellfire missile from a drone on the basis of a list of human targets drawn up by the president's advisers. Due process, guaranteed by the US Constitution, no longer exists in the United States of America. Neither does the constitutional prohibition against the government spying on citizens without just cause and a court warrant.

...

Anyone who gives a political campaign $100 million dollars expect something in exchange, and the recipient is obligated to provide whatever is desired. So are we witnessing the purchase of Donald Trump?

It's the other characters that I question even more... the ones who jump in with a line or two against inside job, but don't have anything meaningful to say. Seems like they simply want to use up space to push the facts that we write up into the realm of the forgotten.
