Either way you need more evidence than that to say democrats have been rigging elections for 50 years.

I am more interested in what she has got to hide than what DJT was earning and tax avoiding if any.

The difference is, releasing tax returns is normally a routine part of the campaign. Trump is attempting to create an equivalence that doesn't exist.

Looks like the view counter for video 2 is stuck... the views will be outnumbered by the likes soon. :D

They do very well out of these videos. If you take Trump's support and even say only 10% are really into it then that is still a huge audience.

One of the theories, backed up by some decent information, is that Trump might start an alt-right media network if he loses. It would explain his fixation with saying it's rigged (better to be the cheated candidate rather than the loser), he is a TV showman and he has close links with people skilled at it: Alex Jones, Steve Bannon. Alex Jones is only on the internet for now and Steve Bannon the web. So there is certainly an opening there.

I just saw Fridays The Last Leg.

The said the only way Trump could lose votes if he said Ban Guns.

Lovely.

What's lovely is democrat supporters detailing how they have been and will continue to commit voter fraud.

We're not saying it, the democrats are actually saying it in that video...

That guy is but he isn't employed by the DNC and I need more than one guy to be convinced the Democrats have been rigging elections for 50 years. If I find a video of a Republican saying something like 'we'll perform a coup if Hilary wins' does that mean Republicans are planning a coup?

By all means this guy should be investigated assuming the unedited video doesn't change anything but to infer this is the entire Democratic party isn't going to hold. Also this guy has a history of using selectively edited footage.

Can't believe I watched a 17 minute long infowars thing.

Yeah, some guy coming out with that stuff with no evidence they have or can do so is clearly akin to death threats. :rolleyes:

Well, yes.

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-us...-idUSKCN12I27L

Elections are run at state level. Clearly Republican governors and local officials routinely turn a blind eye to Democrat election rigging.

Well done. I'm proud of you :D
The guy in that vid did seem very sure of what he was saying though. Makes you wonder if there isn't something in the claims of vote rigging. Obviously, if you're pro Hillary then it's all heresy and hearsay but it is difficult to watch it and dismiss out of hand so much of what was said....

Obviously......since certain sections of the republican party had turned against Trump. I'd be surprised if they couldn't find an expert or three to speak out against him :D

On the other side of the political spectrum I'd be lying if I said I couldn't wait to see this.

Can they find all the Republican officials in the 23 Republican run states who are going to rig the elections in Democrats favour? ;)

Minor story but rather stupid to do this in a swing state: http://www.denverpost.com/2016/10/18...shooting-joke/

---------- Post added at 08:47 ---------- Previous post was at 08:38 ----------

Btw this is a good site to play around with the map: http://www.270towin.com/

I tried to think of a conceivable way for Trump to win and came up with this:

http://image.prntscr.com/image/89882...a78f06d18f.png

Trump has to win Ohio and Florida. As well as getting surprise wins in New Mexico and Nevada. He drops one of those he closes. That's as well as holding on to North Carolina.

---------- Post added at 08:49 ---------- Previous post was at 08:47 ----------

It looks like we'll know early in the night if this is going to be close though. There doesn't appear to be a viable path for Trump if he doesn't win Ohio and Florida.
