2016 Presidential Election

[aggroculture]

I made a fanfare entrance music for Trump, so he doesn't have to use Queen or Rolling Stones anymore:

This is also gold

Michelle Obama gave one of the greatest convention speeches ever last night.

is it too late to trade her for Barack? Sucks that she was pushing for much more progressive stances, part. early on, but fucking Rahm seemed to win out on almost every policy debate.

I hope she runs in 4 or 8 years if Warren doesn't.

I'm pretty excited for Bill Clinton tonight. He can get a room riled up pretty well, and I haven't listened to him much this round.

Bernie tells supporters that voting 3rd Party a bad idea if they want to keep Trump out of White House

Today is going to be fun

"white male voters have felt left behind" is an actual thing that someone on whatever channel is on here at work said. I believe MSNBC.

[Baphomette]

My cat stepped on the trackball and I can't figure out how to unlike/unfacepalm this post.

Anyway, I want to punch all of these people. Every single one of them.

Man, I didn't know that watching this roll call would make me so emotional. <3

We were supposed to be running errands but, wow, I wouldn't miss this for anything!!

[Sarah K]

And, history is officially made. What a beautiful thing to be able to witness in my lifetime.

applauding!!!

G and I are drinking champagne. Really, this has been the best day ever.

Man, I half-expected a Howard Dean Scream 2.0 at the end of his speech. Can you imagine how it's gotta feel as that guy looking at everything Trump's been allowed to do consequence-free?

[Sarah K]

I was hoping for it when I heard him start repeating it. I was yelling at my computer "OH MY GOD. DO IT. DO IT."

[allegro]

Yeah Bill Clinton!!!

Bill is gonna bring it!!!

[implanted_microchip]

This man is one of the finest public speakers alive. I'm in awe.

Edit: I legit cried during the final stretch of tonight's stuff. Bill Clinton making the strongest case for Hillary's status as a progressive ever given and speaking eloquently and with so much honest-to-God heart, Meryl Streep running down that list, Hillary's comment to little girls watching -- I lost it, man.

This DNC is just night and day from the RNC.

Can't believe Bernie supporters still supported Sellout Sanders even after he had previously, openly stabbed them in the back. For all that he said he stood for, Bernie has zero integrity. I bet Bill was certainly happy; I mean, how fast did Bernie drop to his knees and pull out his dentures? I think his supporters were cheated even moreso than he was. But I'm glad Hillary won the democratic nomination because it will be even easier for Trump to win now. Even if the democrats attempt to steal the election, Trump isn't going to cowardly tap out like Bernie did. Bernie supporters need to give it a rest because we all know Bernie already did that. Trump was right, Bernie was exhausted and ready for a nap.

For the record, I think Gary Johnson is decent but I definitely prefer Trump’s views over his and I don't think Gary has much of a chance to win anyways. Not that it really means much, except in terms of public perception, but I didn't think it was possible to be any less charismatic than a doctor yet Gary has somehow managed to be just that. Looking forward to more wikileaks and DNC ridiculousness! Forever Trump!

For all those offended, my bad. I should have issued a trigger warning.

Um, you're posting on a message board dedicated to a band whose music videos consist primarily of BDSM and torture porn. The most you're going "trigger" around here for being an intellectually deficient edgelord is an eyeroll.

[emptydesk]

How boring.

Clearly as evidenced by various threads on said board and anywhere else for that matter, people are willing to look past ironies when convenient.

But oh, is this my cue to roll my eyes?

Things wouldn't be so boring if you weren't so apathetic.

You really think I'm going to bite? Go fold a box.

I LOVE THIS POST

Discussing this on facebook. Who do you guys feel the better public speaker is? Bill Clinton or Barack Obama?

I've always loved Bill Clinton's public speaking skills, although he hasn't always been great; he's honed that skill over the years. He's great at ad libbing, bringing additional content on the fly.

Both are brilliant debaters and orators. Bill's style obviously reflects southern culture a bit more.

I won't even be able to watch Thursday night, as I have to go to this dinner at school. I AM VERY UPSET.

[allegro]

I can't watch tonight, we're seeing Diana Ross. But I'll be DVR'ing it.
