Clinton v Trump on Global Warming. It makes a BIG difference.

So WHAT do we do when a candidate like Trump, who raises such doubts about his character, comes out almost PERFECT on one of the most critical issues of our time, whereas Clinton comes out for pure spread-eagled submission to Greenpeace?

    While Trump is not a perfect candidate or even a good candidate for that matter. He is the BEST of what is available. I will be voting for Trump because of this and the fact that, I will be voting.

    Hillary's understanding of AGW is limited to her appreciation of its value as a political tool. It is unlikely that she comprehends the scientific and technical issues at all. To paraphrase Heinlein, trying to teach a politician science is like trying to teach an oyster how to play the violin. However, there is no evidence that Trump's understanding of the technical details are any better. He does understand the impact that unbridled and unthinking political action will have on the economy. So we are faced with a dilemma. We must select not who will do the most good but who will do the least harm. When put that way the choice is obvious.

      You said, "He does understand the impact that unbridled and unthinking political action will have on the economy." Does he? He's pushing for mandatory 6 week maternity leave, which will have significant effects on the economy.

    Well...we have a candidate that used to be a lefty...it was trendy and it helped him get business done...now, where the tire meets the road is littered with non-capitalist nonsense...he decides to do something about it, he's unskilled in diplomacy and unlearned on all the issues but where reason and common sense is required...he excels. (not particularly enamored with this candidate.)

    Now on the other hand, we have a candidate whom has never been honest, never ethical and has broken every law on the books from her first job as a lawyer during the Nixon admin. She (I assume it's a she) has opposed rational thought by 180 on every issue...unless, of course, speaking to your face. She, unlike George Washington, has never told the truth. (She's one mean evil witch in which I would not like to meet in a dark alley.)

    What do you do? that's up to you, but at least study their history, measure their speech against their actions and on the things they have changed positions on, did they explain the reason for that change.

    One candidate has not chosen his associations well, where the other has chosen her association from the sign in sheet in hell.

    Chose well and prosper.

    What do you do when a candidate is a fraud and misrepresents his/her intent compared to past actions? Vote for someone else.
    Both Hillary and Trump are guilty of acting in one way and saying they are different from their actions.

    The same data which 'proved' global warming also 'proved' in the 70s that we should have frozen to death by this time. There is a funny thing about the weather, it changes! The forecast for rain today brings only clear skies and sunshine. A thousand years ago Greenland was green and produced grapes which were made into wine. Millions of years ago dinosauers roamed in tropical forests that are now deserts. Science is absolute, it took scientists over fifty years to prove some of Einstein theories because the technology was unavailable at the time. Settled science is not absolute, but there will always be selling linement for phantom diseases!

    Trump has either learned or adopted the right words. Whether or not he is a true believer is yet to be revealed. But.....once again, in comparison to Mrs. Clintone, he achieves sainthood.

    I am "troubled" by all the mis-information that many Trump supporters mention or preface when announcing their support for him. It seems to me that most of this comes from the media and other lefty sources. Carl, (as in oldugly) states it very well with his statement below,,,,where reason and common sense is required...he excels.

    It was Trump's influence which got a plank against UN Agenda 21 in the Republican platform. Hillary has supported the goals and ultimately Agenda 21 by name since First Lady. She goes along with Obama,who has officers training who were asked if they would use guns against US citizens to enforce Agenda 21.Obama plans to gt rid of Hillary and solve it all when he shuts down the Internet on Sept. 30 at midnight for one day to weeks - his words. So he stays in office, Hillary likely either goes to jail or dies "mysteriously" - like his grandma, and we are all screwed.The envirronment agenda, based on nothing will become law, and rights and jobs will end. While it wa the incandescent light bulb, locked up to control the people in "Anthem", for us it will mean no property rights, no A/C, no refrigeration, no cars, no freedom and no jobs.

    Giant Douche or Turd Sandwich. A pretty accurate representation of the choices we have to make every 4 years. Me, I'm going with the Giant Douche.

    Here be one reason me dino will vote for Bad Hair Day.
    Even though I was thinking the other day that American Indian tribes should call a President Trump not a Great White Father but Big Chief Heaps Foot In Mouth.
    Clinton? They'd just call her The Godmother.
    Indians watch TV too.
