Debate 9/26/16 - Trump vs Clinton


Quote:I would rather see Bubbles the chimpanzee become president than Trump. He'd make better policy.
 

We all know that Bubbles "doesn't have the look to be President"

Quote:I hope all Democrat voters are as confident as you that Hillary will get the same turnout as Barack Obama.
 

.... IMO at the end of the day, it all comes down to black voter turnout.

 

I expect a huge push by Barack & Michelle Obama, Sanders, Bill Clinton, and various entertainers (e.g. Springsteen, Bon Jovi, etc.) in October.

 

That said, I don't think there is any way in the world that the black voter turnout will resemble 2008 & 2012.

THANK YOU. This guys gets it.


Donald knew the construction companies he stiffed would eventually go bankrupt without being able to collect from him because of the size and scope of the work. Legalized stealing.


This system of not paying showed don how to get rid of his own debts while collecting millions as salary - and then bankrupting his own companies. Then he would simply start another company. He mastered gaming the bankruptcy system.


Ethics. Oh, you can say it's smart business, but it's not "good" business.

I love all of the saints in here who chide people for taking advantage of tax loopholes. I gotta ask. Who in the hell are you to decide what is ethical and not ethical??

Bible says to pay your debts...


Common sense usually dictates ethics.

Not paying people for doing what you asked and agreed to pay is very unethical.

Have you two gentlemen ever had a contractor do bad work on your home, business, car, or any other asset that requires maintenance that was so bad it didn't warrant full payment?

 

Also, bringing religion into this? C'mon man!

So, is our country unethical since they aren't paying their 20 trillion dollar debt and just running it up?

No


I pay my bills. Being unhappy with the quality doesn't authorize me to stiff him. My goodness.


It's unreal the ridiculousness of the people in this country in the last year. Trump has given permission for every jack wad to increase their jerkiness by 1000.

OK show me a bill. Who's trying to collect on this.

No offense, but if you paid a contractor in full when you weren't happy with his work without him correcting it speaks more to the type of person you are than anything involving ethics or common sense.

So, are you saying we aren't in debt? Is it all made up? Does paying interest on 20T really count as paying down debt? No, it doesn't.

HAHA.

 

I would say that the same ol same from the last 8 years has people pissed to the point of not caring about being jerks.

 

Me personally? I'm quite tired of PC America and this soft [BLEEP] stance of "you can't say or do that, it hurts someones feelings"

 

I don't care about Trumps taxes.

I don't care about him filing bankruptcy. 

 

 

The problem in this country isn't that people misuse the loopholes and gov't kickbacks.

It's that they exist in the first place.

 

Our tax code is a mess. A total utter mess. The IRS is a joke. The Fed? C'mon...

Are we safer today than 8 years ago... Hell... how about 12 years ago... 

no.

Are we better off now than then? Most of us... not.

 

Hillary is more of the same. Trump, [BLEEP] or not will be different

Bull.


And you know it. Now you're just being disingenuous.



I really love America, but I sure dislike the new Americans.

You said "Being unhappy with the quality doesn't authorize you to stiff him". It's not like these contractors are paid in one lump sum. Withholding a final payment because a contractor won't rectify their errors is not "stiffing him".

Yeah.

This actually happens a lot.

 

You can't hold out on Dish because it rains.

But if your roofer fixes a roof and it still leaks...

 

yeah... not paying.

It's basic business actually. It happens in IT as much as construction. That is why you have milestones and payment schedules.

And you know darn well and good if ya don't pay your going to court. Of course you don't have an army of lawyers.

Trump, such a man for the working people. What a large pile of feces.

Going to court does not automatically make you guilty.

Quote:Sorry you have a cold, but it isn't that simple. First, Reagan created fewer jobs than Clinton, despite having far larger cuts. Obama created more jobs than Bush, and raised taxes. It isn't some one to one correlation. However the revenue did drop during the Reagan years, and the deficit grew sharply. So no.


No it didnt

Civil cases isn't about guilt. It's about judgement. Trump bullies his contractors to not pay. You're cool with it, me I think a pit bull to his gonads would be justice every time he thinks of stiffing someone.
