I've run across him before. He's a troll with a vastly overblown sense of his own intellect.

"Was Hillary even there, breathing fire and mocking God?"

I'm glad to see she has taken up some fun hobbies.

"Winning hath charms to soothe the savage beast"

She will be a much more difficult handful for the GOP to deal with than our current pussycat-in-chief. If drumpf can manage to lose the Senate for them she can stiff-arm the House right onto their ass and laugh all the way to the goal post.

I wonder vaguely if getting Trump's Trumpisms right turns out to be some sorta shibboleth with his supporters, or if this is a much less precise mechanism, and the general construction [pejorative adjective] [hated noun] is perfectly acceptable. As in: if you start saying 'The Crooked New York Times' and 'Failing Hillary', will they suddenly realise you're a plant, and you may have to dive out the window to survive? Or will they just toast you all the more enthusiastically, possibly assuming they, you, or both are drunk, and they either heard it or you said it out of order...

Also, how flexible is the usage? As in, when they say 'The Failing New York Times', is it at least _grammatically_ correct (if still a bit of a prelude to defenestration) to say: 'Oh, yes, them... I'm a failing subscriber.'

I don't know. I'm guessing impeachment proceedings will begin on inauguration day, followed by 5,000 email investigations. But I hope your version of the future is the correct one.

"To be clear, the presence of Hillary Clinton in the halls of government is not the cause of this bickering. It’s just How Things Are."

It's platitudes like this that truly trigger the Trumpets. "I know the classification process better than any ten war generals. IT IS NOT NEITHER HOW THINGS ARE!! LOCK HER UP!!"

It will be a nice break from sleeping on the job.

Some of it's a copy/paste; I just can't recall where else I've seen it.

Can I still be intolerant of all the email classification experts running loose everywhere and decrying CORRUPTION?

I think Sam and Dean Winchester might just be savvy enough to pull this off.

I think Trump has spoken of an oft-used marriage clause that allows him to dump any given wife after a specific time frame and walk away with all his assets.

You're right, a nice mulled cyber would go well with a Nothingburger.

Emails, emails, emails, emails...it's all they've got. Especially since Gropenfuhrer University will be found guilty of fraud on November 28th. And Gropenfuhrer himself will be facing a status conference on December 16th for raping a 13 year old girl. Boy will the trumpeteers have egg on their faces if he's elected and, before he's even sworn in, we get to see the President elect found complicit in these crimes.

RE: ContentI'm really glad you give sources, it is the only way to have a proper discussion.I'm sorry but I have to get to work so I don't have time to follow the link. Have fun discussing!

RE: StyleI don't understand why you are yelling. I'm right here dude, less than half a meter from the screen. There is no need to yell, I can read your words just fine in mixed case.

An old worn out email scandal is not as sexy as a sexual misconduct scandal.
