bukatyne: Funny enough if you followed Social media on Trump and Clinton, you'd see Trump was trending far better than her. Donald Trump before the elections had 11million facebook fans while clinton had 7million. On Clinton's page, there were lots of negative comments against her by americans. Funny enough, it was vice-versa for Trump. Also the media failed to elucidate on Trump campaigns which had far more attendees than Clinton. |

It's not so hard to know Trump was gonna win at least after seeing what happened at the fund raising dinner. They made it obvious godfathers were behind Hillary with the boos. Trump's campaign connected well with the common citizens, there was an intersection btwn their needs and his speeches. Hillary on the other hand, was just trying to play on peeps emotions, tryna please every Tom, Dick and Harry, she was neither here or there. U campaign like Hillary and win with a landslide in Nigeria, fortunately Americans are more objective than that. Lil wonder my colleagues thought I was crazy for believing he's gonna win. Too bad I ain't in the country to see the look in their faces when he won. 1 Like |

4th Mysterious Death Connected to the DNC In continuance of the decades-old, specious "Clinton Body Bags" narrative, the deaths of four people with supposed links to Hillary Clinton in the summer of 2016 (over a span of six weeks, not "less than a month" have been proffered as evidence (or at least a very strong suggestion) that those deaths are part of a nefarious plot to bump off anyone who might possess information that could bring down Clinton's campaign for the presidency. However, as is typical of this form of conspiracy theory, those four people had only the most tenuous and indirect of connections to Hillary Clinton, and the putative reasons offered for why they would supposedly need to be killed (if any reasons were offered at all) ranged from non-credible to erroneous: o On 11 July 2016, Democratic National Committee (DNC) staffer Seth Conrad Rich was shot and killed just after 4 AM in Washington, D.C. There is zero evidence behind the conspiracy theory that Rich was gunned down while on his way to meet with the FBI (at 4:00 AM?) to discuss testifying against Hillary Clinton regarding election fraud in the 2016 primaries. As noted by Rich's hometown newspaper, the Omaha World-Herald, despite the lack of any substance to such rumors, WikiLeaks has since fanned the flames of speculation by offering a $20,000 reward for information about Rich's killer: Fevered political conspiracy theories about the death of Seth Rich have been swirling through online comment sections and websites ever since the Omaha native was gunned down early on July 10 close to his home in northwest Washington, D.C. All indications from police have been that Rich’s death was most likely the result of a botched robbery — a sadly too-common case of a promising young man cut down simply by being in the wrong place at the wrong time. But that hasn’t stopped wild Internet speculation from going viral, based in part on the fact that Rich worked at the Democratic National Committee. Internet commenters have suggested that Rich was behind the disclosure of DNC emails to WikiLeaks that helped force the resignation of Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida as chairwoman. The conspiracy theorists got new ammunition when WikiLeaks announced a $20,000 reward for information leading to a conviction in Rich’s death. Never mind the evidence in favor of a robbery, the fact that the leaked emails were released well after his death or even that WikiLeaks itself stressed that the reward should not be taken as an implication that Rich was involved in the email leak. Metropolitan Police Department spokesperson Alice Kim said "there is no indication that Seth Rich's death is connected to his employment at the DNC," and a spokesman for the Rich family said that people "attempting to politicize this horrible tragedy" are "causing more harm than good": [S]ome are attempting to politicize this horrible tragedy, and in their attempts to do so, are actually causing more harm than good and impeding on the ability for law enforcement to properly do their job. For the sake of finding Seth's killer, and for the sake of giving the family the space they need at this terrible time, they are asking for the public to refrain from pushing unproven and harmful theories about Seth's murder. o Former U.N. Diplomat John Ashe died in June 2016, and his death was quickly followed by conspiracy claims that he was about "to testify against Hillary Clinton in US District Court." Although Ashe's cause of death prompted some curious speculation (it was initially reported as a heart attack but subsequently attributed to a weightlifting accident), he was not about to testify against Hillary Clinton or the DNC at the time he died — he was set to begin pre-trial meetings related to corruption charges against himself. o Writer Victor Thorn passed away in August 2016, by all accounts of a self-inflicted gunshot wound (i.e., suicide). Thorn wasn't anyone who had "exposed the Clintons," however — he was the author of conspiracy-mongering books contending that the Holocaust was a hoax and that Israel was responsible for the 9/11 terrorist attacks. His books on the Clintons were in the same vein: long on sensationalist rumor, speculation, hearsay, conspiracy theory, and "just asking questions"-style insinuation, but short on documentation. (Examples: "Was Bill and Hillary's much ballyhooed first meeting at Yale actually part of a much larger prearranged marriage engineered by shadowy New World Order figures whose ultimate plans led them to the White House?" and "Find out how during their academic careers, Bill and Hillary were recruited into the CIA under Operation CHAOS to subvert the anti-war movement." o Shawn Lucas, best known for a viral video capturing him serving the DNC with a lawsuit in July 2016, passed away suddenly the following month. (Lucas was reportedly found dead in a bathroom; although officials have disclosed no specific cause of death yet, neither have they indicated that foul play is suspected.) Lucas was not, as subsequently portrayed in conspiracy memes, the "lead attorney in the anti-Clinton DNC fraud case"; he was just a process server who delivered papers to the DNC notifying them of a lawsuit charging the organization with "fraud" in favoring Hillary Clinton over Bernie Sanders during the Democratic primary process. Killing a process server after the fact as a means of suppressing a lawsuit makes no sense, especially when all the principal parties involved in the lawsuit remain alive and capable of talking. 10 August 2016

Misogynists don't hate women and most women know it...Hence, women voting for Trump despite his misogynist tendencies is never surprising. I'm happy Trump defeated a woman too... |

1) Americans stop believing lying main stream media. 2) www.drudgereport.com very powerful 3) Hillary is a criminal, enough people figured it out 4) Trump actually has solid policies 5) 3/4 wave of feminism is so far left even women hate it. Original feminism was equal opportunity to be a cop, pilot, bus driver, now it is Men are evil (but we need you to fix the roof, build buildings, do hard labor because women won't) 6) Obama's far reaching gay transgender stuff got very annoying 7) Huge difference among Cuban, Domincan, S. American., Latinos and the illegal immigrant Mexican, Honduras, El Salvador types. Domincans do like to vote for their free stuff though, food stamps, Section 8 etc. Swing state Florida Cuban Americans supported Trump in large numbers because Obama normalized relations with Dictator Castro. Cubans have no rights in that country, the ones in Florida do not like this The whites in the mid west, upper mid west, and rust belt that were the swing votes....The democrats have taken them for granted (just like Black Americans) for years. Democrats have become the party of the urban elites, globalists, media, academia/universities, and the chronic underemployed in urban areas. They have nothing in common with middle class upper middle class suburban married with kids people. 9) Voters are tired of USA messing around with war in other countries, Hillary is more of that. 10) Trump as a leader is just light years better than Hillary. 1 Like |

Mindfulness: I wish him luck on that with a Republican Congress. This point reminds me of the RNC's NeverTrump movement. The establishment have licked their own asses for too long, in fact, so long that Republican voters say the GOP is in collusion with the RNC and tagged them the Uniparty. You saw how quickly Republican big wigs came back to support Trump after they all denounced him following the grabgate scandal? The voters didn't care a drop about that and felt Republican politicians were self-serving and even marked them to be booted out at whatever next election they faced. This is symptomatic of the establishment on both sides losing touch with the average voter. Michael Moore is just consoling himself here. If the electoral college system was so important they should have had it fixed or campaigned for its fixing. You cannot come and be changing goals after results. Democrats list this one and that's that. He's also making the mistake most mainstream media talking heads make, ie, identity politicking. Is there anyone in America being underpaid because she's a woman? No. Why is he bringing that up? Hillary brought it up at a rally, and it's not a valid talking point. Anybody who says there's a gender pay gap in the US should be quarantined, they have a defective brain. Per Obamacare, well, all you have to do is google the dissatisfaction People have with it. Go to Reddit and you'll see people can't wait to have it scrapped. They literally cannot afford it. Yes, the poor benefit from it, but someone who works hardly can. Some guy said he had to turn down a $2000 dollar raise because it would be detrimental to him on the ACA requirements and you think people don't want it scrapped . Michael Moore has finished his assignment, he should go and sit down. 1 Like |

Your hatred for Trump won't let u see the Bigger picture. Hillary lost for so many reasons. One she plan to continue the unpopular Obamacare which is even very expensive and out of the reach of average Americans. 2. She is an avowed abortionists and planned to increase federal funding of planned parent hood which incensed the Conservative Christians especially the catholics who re the largest denominations. About 5,000,000 babies are Aborted in America yearly and black women account for 31 percent of abortions. 3. She planned to continue with Obama's promotion of homosexuality, forcing if religious group to wed guys, lesbians, transgender, and many like reason 2 above were determined against her ascension to the White house. 4. Many Americans never forgave her for causing the death of four Americans including an ambassador in Benghazi,Libya and the email scandals despite FBI exonerating her. 5. The attempt where her campaign team attempted to stir a revolution with the Catholic Church was one of her greatest undoing. This greatly incensed catholics who love their church so much despite not really living up to its teachings. cococandy: |
