[kj] A Year of Trump

[jpwhkj at aol.com]

Some interesting and well-referenced points there - thanks.  And I definitely agree that the two main options on offer last year were poor ones.


But, I'd still take Clinton over Trump by a very long distance indeed.

There were a couple of Gatherers who were far more up-in-arms about Hilary than Trump, but I can't say I've heard much from either since.

Because there’s no point talking about what some has-been might have done?


Maybe she would have blown a couple of Russian jets out of the sky,

maybe not. Who can say about what might have been?


Maybe she did fail as secretary of State to allow North Korea to develop their nuclear program. But apparently this all started a year ago, or something.


Maybe she did destroy Libya for this sort of reason,

and reintroduce the Slave trade to North Africa, and the European migrant crisis, maybe not, maybe it was worth it, you know, in the long run. 



Maybe she did conspire with foreign powers to undermine the elected American Government, in the same way she undermined Bernie Sanders,

It’s certain that Trump is stupid egotistical oaf. He may well go down as the Worst president Eva, But is he the worst presidential candidate eva? That’s a lot more arguable.




Sorry, I’m boring myself here. Still I look forward to being called a racist woman hater. Laters!
