It's always the anti Trump people here getting angry and willing to use personal attacks while debating lol. Being able to stuff as many personal insults in your post as possible doesn't make your points any better.
If you're calling me pointing out linking a Russia Today article without reading it was dumb, a personal attack, I honestly don't know how to respond. If you're referring to me pointing out that a strawman was either a strawman or a lack of reading comprehension, maybe people shouldn't post strawmen, that's also not a personal attack, and considering the length of that post it was hardly stuffed with insults. What was the point of posting this, if you are this sensitive, maybe you shouldn't be voting for a man who actually made a point to say how proud he was that he was managed to not launch a personal attack on Hillary Clinton during the debate (after the debate while insulting her).
That being said, if I had to choose between a person who said a woman "liked eating" 20 years ago or someone who ignores security procedures on purpose and lead to the death of 4 Americans in Benghazi, I'd choose the former. I care a lot more about Hillary Clinton's deadly actions and policies that she supports such as NAFTA and the TPP than Donald Trump's harsh words. I also think it isn't right to try to scare those voting for a 3rd party candidate into voting for yours, people have the right to vote for who they want to, no matter if they have a major chance of winning or not.
Lol, what a terrible way to look at the election, it isn't about choosing "between a person who said a woman "liked eating" 20 years ago or someone who ignores security procedures on purpose and lead to the death of 4 Americans in Benghazi," its about choosing a person with coherent policies (of which Trump has none). You're also ignoring Donald Trump's fraudulent university, continuous racist remarks, and the fact that in spite of saying he is worth 3 billion dollars, he is probably in debt (mortgages) cause its all in properties. You don't hear as much about Trump's scandals cause he says something so confoundingly stupid/racist/sexist everyday that all his negative press comes from that.
As Sam already addressed, most economists think NAFTA had very little effect on the economy (but most think it was a slight positive), just cause Donald Trump's buzzword was "NAFTA was the worst thing to the economy" at the first debate doesn't make it true. Consider a) Donald Trump is capable of lying, he actually does it constantly, such as denying saying global warming was made up by the chinese in order to harm the US economy (he said this), that he put the birther lie to rest after Obama released his birth certificate (Obama released it in 2011, Donald Trump was saying he was born in Kenya as recently as January 2016 iirc), and that he was against the war in Iraq from the start (there is video of him on air that points to the opposite). And b) Donald Trump probably isn't an economic expert, which is why
his tax plan would expand the deficit, while Clinton's keeps it about level while
expanding job growth by 3.2 million (obviously this is conjecture, but I trust conjecture by economists more than someone whose in depth knowledge of economics only goes as far as repeating NAFTA is bad). For someone who cares a lot about policies, you don't seem to actually be all that informed, notice how its always the Trump supporters making statements they are unable to back up with factual evidence (this was a personal insult, but I'm just mirroring your post, its a form of sarcasm fyi).
Again no where in my post did I attempt to scare people voting 3rd party into voting for a different candidate. I simply stated that it is an advantage for Trump to have millennial voters, who would have voted for Bernie, vote for Stein or Johnson, especially when at the end of the day, after being moved left by the primaries, Clinton's position is much closer to Sanders than either of the other candidates. Its therefore a protest vote (not voting closest to your own ideologies because you are upset with the primaries outcome), these people should vote Clinton, not because Trump is a terrifying prospect (I mean he is), but because Clinton's platform is the most ideologically similar to Sanders's. I also said it works both ways, my parents would typically vote Republican, but neither are voting for Trump because its abundantly clear to them he has no plan if he becomes president, and his random bigoted outbursts don't help.
Hey, speaking of being uninformed on the issues
I'm really surprised Hillary didn't faint/have a coughing fit/soil herself/die.
Look, its another criticism of Clinton that has nothing to do with her policies! Let me break down why a candidates "potential death" in this election is once again a boon for Clinton, even though its mostly irrelevant. Firstly, Hilary Clinton is a 68 year old woman who managed to recover from pneumonia in ~ 1.5 weeks, if you are concerned about her dying in office, maybe you should be worried about the 70 year old, overweight oompa loompa dying in office. Secondly, this is the order of VP and presidential candidates from major parties I'd want to be president:
Kaine
Clinton
Trump
Pence
Kaine is a relative moderate who opposes citizens united, if Clinton dies in office Tim Kaine is at least a reasonable person to become president. Pence, on the other hand, got his start in politics by running on a platform in which he wanted to
defund HIV research and provide resources "toward those institutions which provide assistance to those seeking to change their sexual behavior" (ctrl + f HIV). Dude wanted to
use waste tax payer money on conversion therapy, in spite of the fact that it has an incredibly low success rate (think 0) and has dubious constitutionality (show me the conversion therapy that doesn't advocate for a religion). Aside from that, he wanted to waste tax payer money on the torture of American citizens, the majority of which would be children sent there against their will by religious parents (and yes it is torture, there is a reason several states are making a push to outlaw conversion therapy for minors). I'm not sure how you of all people could support someone who thinks that Pence would be a good president if anything should happen to him, but given your posting I'm going to guess you haven't thought much about it at all.
