She talks about bringing people together, but I just haven't seen that. Trump will take the white supremacist votes to get elected, but I wouldn't say he's outwardly courting them, and those aren't the only ones that are backing him.
I think it is exactly the opposite. DT is the one saying that Obama has caused a racial divide in this country, and certainly says it in words much less nice. When he lies and says he doesn't know who David Duke is, that is courting them. When he says what he says about non-whites, he is courting them.

She IS the system and everything wrong with government. As much as people say Trump doesn't really want to be Prez, I think the same is true of Hillary. She just feels entitled to it at this point and nothing's going to stop her. She rigged the primaries, rigged the FBI and DOJ investigation, and is working to rig this election.
Congress is completely controlled by the GOP, but you think she controls enough of them to get by with committing treason? The FBI director is a republican, and spent an hour explaining all the awful things she did before admitting nothing could even be brought to a grand jury. If he was doing his job normally, and controlled by her, he wouldn't have spent an hour talking about it. You won't find a single prosecutor anywhere that could get away with talking for an hour about how what a person did wasn't quite bad enough to be charged. They would likely be sued for lack of due process.

I totally understand that. Hope there aren't any hard feelings, Shel. I just love discussing divisive issues.
