If you haven't realized that this forum leans heavily to the right you haven't been paying attention.

WHITE MALE conservatives have been voting in droves for Trump. Women and non-white males have been voting against Trump. The one thing you say that is true is that many people do not like the political scene, which is why people are saying they are voting AGAINST both Trump and Clinton rather than for them.

They don't want to fight a civil war when their wealth is their G-d. They are disgusted by poor whites, have basically said they do not care about them.

Trump cares about Trump, but he will take their votes. He is getting their votes because he is the only rich guy who appears to care about them.

Unfortunately, Trump is a long shot because of the negatives painted on him. He is lucky to run against Hillary, because so many hate her, also. Simple minded Uncle Joe, VP Emeritus, now realizes he would have trounced Trump if he squeaked by Mrs. Clinton.

So true. If Trump was running against Obama, he would be destroyed in my opinion. Clinton is carrying more negative baggage than any Presidential candidate I can remember, and it's currently neck-and-neck. Like Clinton, I think Trump does more to hurt himself than anyone else. Both Trump and Clinton need to select strong running mates. That alone will be interesting.
Add one more vote for the Libertarian.

Frankly I don't care if president cares about me or not. I just want the rules followed and the country cared about. You take of the country and I'll take care of me. Wanting the president to care about you personally is pretty narcissistic which a liberal trait.

looks bad for hilliary.

with 97 voters in this poll, she's barely leading the libertarian candidate by 1%.
A third party may have a shot this time, H$D are the two least favorable goons that have been up for election ever.

Otherwise, whoever has the plurality in each state...wins.

That would sure make you even more popular down at YOUR gloryholes there in KansASS ! And you could final break out YOUR inflatable doll of her and proudly display your support for her down at the 'holes !

Kind of surprised that the Libertarian isn't doing better in this poll given that he is the only one who would legalize our hobby. (Of course, it is doubtful he has had more strange pussy than Trump --- or than Hillary for that matter).

I certainly don't expect the Libertarian candidate to win any electoral votes. But if he can crack 15%, he makes it onto the debate stage. Giving us a bona fide third option is a healthy thing for our republic. Small victories today leading to a political realignment in the future.
