[US Election 2016] Democratic Primary Megathread III

#ImWithHer

P.S. Who else thinks Hillary should change her slogan to Dump the Trump if you think she should, then comment #DumpTheTrump

Absolutely not. She should adopt a positive slogan that explains her vision for America. "I'm With Her" is cultish and weird.

I like #ImWithHer it's easy, memorable, rolls off the tongue, and is a direct response to "make america great again", plus it denotes the historical nature of her Presidency.

I completely disagree.

[Ameriganastan]

That's what they kept saying during the nominee race. And look how that's ended up!

This shouldn't be surprising. I remember seeing a poll last year that had Trump leading all of the other Republican candidates.

The minute I saw that poll, I knew that he would likely keep his lead, and I was right.

It is surprising. Cause despite my utter hatred of politics, I figured people would have at least one modicum of sense to not let this happen. Clearly, I was wrong, and now we're 4 months from president Trump.

What would be better then?

[The Romulan Republic]

One possible alternative would be the slogan she used at her joint event with Bernie where he endorsed her:

"Stronger together"

It not only calls for unity on the Left against Trump, but works as a response and challenge to Trump's bigotry and incitement of violence.

Violence like Leftists rioting in Chicago or protesting in Arizona?

man, he mustve said some truly awful shit.

I dunno.

TRR had a good suggestion.

I don't have a problem with that one. I guess it worked for Scotland's staying in the UK, but that necessarily makes me think of their failure to stay in the EU.

That's pretty nitpicky though, lol

I don't deny or condone the presence of violence on the Left, but their is a major hole in your straw man argument.

Only one one side has their been a candidate blatantly endorsing and condoning said violence. And he isn't on the Left.

Never said he wasnt, if you excuse me, i have plans to vote for Gary Johnson.

because Fuck shitty choices.

[Ameriganastan]

because Fuck shitty choices.

Amen to that.

Amen to that.

You should join us, its not worth losing your spine to regret doing your duty as a citizen.

...Not sure what that means. I'm just not voting.

[Yumyumsuppertime]

To be blunt, do you have any basis for the assumption that it is impossible for Clinton to beat him other than your gut?

The fact that he got this far is proof enough of the eventual end result.

That makes no sense. Somebody makes it that far each election cycle. It doesn't mean that the person will win.

[Yumyumsuppertime]

Calm the fuck down, man. The election is still four months away.

That's what they kept saying during the nominee race. And look how that's ended up!

Yes. However, at this point, his support has topped out. He doesn't even have support from major members of his own party, whereas Clinton has the unwavering support of her biggest rival in the primaries, and most (though not all) of his followers.

[The Romulan Republic]

For all her problems, Clinton is unquestionably superior to Trump. And as no other candidate has a realistic chance of winning, if you do not vote, or vote for a minor candidate, you are de facto aiding Trump. Its not fair, but that's the way it is.

Do you want to look back at the day your country, the most powerful country on Earth, elected a bigoted would-be despot with zero political experience and not be able to say that you did everything you could to defeat him in that election?

Okay, so you are freaking out about Trump winning...yet you aren't going to do anything to stop it.

If you are just going to sit on your ass and do nothing, then why complain?

You downplaying the situation isn't helping either.

I get it- I personally view Hillary as a really shitty candidate. I originally wasn't going to vote at all...but when you have a protofascist candidate running on the other side, you have to step up and do your part to stop it.

Doomsday predictions?

I said that it is possible for Trump to win, that he is bigoted, and that he is a would-be despot.

Which of those predictions do you challenge with your little straw man/ad hominem?
