Donald and Hillary: Putting Your Worst Foot Forward

Tomorrow is the South Carolina primary and voters will vote for one of the two front runners, Clinton or Trump……it is NO secret that I do not support either of these two…..and will NOT vote for either……I cannot think of two more terrible candidates to run this country……..

I read a good analysis (at least for me) about the two candidates……

Much to the dismay of most Republican leaders, the nomination of Donald Trump now appears increasingly likely, if not quite inevitable as yet. On the other side, the outcome is far less certain, but the delegate math continues to favor Hillary Clinton in what could be a battle that continues through the spring.

This is in spite of the fact that Trump and Clinton are at present the weakest candidates of their respective parties for the fall election. In the Real Clear Politics polling averages, Clinton beats Trump by 2.8 percent (45.3 to 42.5) while Bernie Sanders beats Trump by 6 percent (47.5 to 41.5). Clinton would lose to either Ted Cruz or Marco Rubio, while Sanders would beat Cruz and tie Rubio.

I realize that many will not agree……… but for me at least….neither candidate is trustworthy……one will be business as usual and the other is an unknown quantity that could be disastrous for this country if elected…..

      1. I don’t like that there are “presumed winners.” But that’s a separate conversation…

  2. For your interest chuq…..
    or maybe you have seen this already…?
    Every time Clinton claims she never cast a vote because of corporate $, watch this 5 minutes from Elizabeth Warren https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12mJ-U76nfg …

  3. The current crop of presidential candidates are the product and progeny of a totally dysfunctional government — a broken system — and how can anyone expect any of them to be prepared to become President of The United States and not carry the dysfunction forward? I don’t think there is a single candidate who can do the job and I think that is where the disaster lies.

    2. While I am at it….
      Gloria Steinem (American feminist) was interviewed here apologizing for Trump and then had the cheek to support Hillary Clinton!
      Bloody feminist!
      🙁

  5. Since I hate to be redundant, this time I’ll merely say this…. Trump, and Clinton, are, together and separately, excellent arguments for anarchy….

    Bernie, i suspect, would have to look up the word….

    1. Ah…anarchy….my fave word….some of my best memories are from the books my grandfather gave me on Proudhon, Foucault and Luxemburg, who was not an anarchist per se….all great thoughts….chuq

      1. Seems to me, it’s the one form of government we haven’t tried, and promises the best results for the common man, as it is based on his existence…

      2. In my early days I was what some term a syndicalist…..I even was a delegate for the IWW….go Wobblies! I say let’s try anarchism…could not be any worse than this mess….chuq

      3. Agreed…. well, except for the wobbling… remember what Yun-Men said… “Above all, don’t wobble.”…
