    The drums are already beating in the United Nations..A UN panel has issued a report recommending that the United States pay “reparations” to African-Americans for its “legacy of colonial history, enslavement, racial subordination and segregation, racial terrorism and racial inequality....

    A President Trump will tell the UN General Assembly members they have 24 hours get out of Dodge and find a new home...

    so, these guys get elected and priority number 1 is job preservation while doing something that is forward looking for taxpayers and the country is nowhere on the list of priorities. 



    Real, consequential change seems impossible at this point, I expect a complete breakdown in DC if Hillary wins.Trump movement isn't going anywhere and wiill take sore losing to a new level, plus she'll be seen as a fraud.   We ain't seen nothing yet i'm afraid.  hope I'm wrong 

    You bring up an interesting point here of what will happen when trump loses.  You have this emotional GOP voting base that got converted into trump supporters along with some of the dems, and basically anyone that fears progress.  So you have this vile rhetoric by trump fanning the flames of racists, bigots and idiots into increased tension and hostility and trump era violence. 

    So when trump loses,  where will these people and all of their strong emotions go?  Trump was able to identify the mindless foxnews anti-Obama, talking head propaganda followers that were the GOP voting majority and was able to hijack this GOP majority group.   So I'm thinking they are right for the picking by anyone that can make trump statements filled with emotion and void of substance as this is what trump's low information supporters will follow.   

    But who will be the face of this low information uneducated GOP majority movement that educated whites and sensible GOP have seperated themselves from?

    scary to think about what happened but I don't even know how will gather up these lemmings after trump loses.  It is possible that they will continue to follow him,  maybe he goes third party and is the trump party.  Not sure

    If Donald Trump wins , violence will erupt in the streets..according to rapper and activist Tef Poe....Tef Poe is now serving as a top leader in the group Black Lives Matter.He is also the co-founder of the Hands Up United organization out of Ferguson, Missouri.

    He took to Twitter to say:

    “Dear white people if Trump wins young n****s such as myself are fully hell bent on inciting riots everywhere we go. Just so you know.”

    “Trump wins aint no more rules fammo. We’ve been too nice as is.”

    (fammo = Your family or people you consider as family. )

    If you will remember Black Lives Matter is the same group Obama invited to White House this past February..


    At a White House ceremony Thursday, President Obama praised former U.S. Olympians Tommie Smith and John Carlos for giving the "black power" salute in the 1968 games..and President Obama used the Black Power gesture at the ceremony...

    So it looks like ..unless a third party candidate wins the election. things are going to really heat-up at the end of the year,,

    killer, that's not why obama vetoed it or why anyone who's given an opinion against this law is against it.

This is how insane it's become, this idiot actually believes that the victims of 911 don't have the right to sue a government that killed their loved ones... The excuse the administration is providing is ridiculous... That was an act of war, the people responsible that assisted them fuks should be hunted down and killed actually.

    killer, that's not why obama vetoed it or why anyone who's given an opinion against this law is against it.

    Congress wasn't completely lame ..they acted quickly..... 11 days after the attacks claimed more than 2,700 lives, Congress created a $7 billion fund to compensate 5,562 family members of the fallen. Payments went to widows and widowers, children and parents.


    slim, that's the answer.  if the families of 9/11 victims haven't been compensated enough, our government should pay them.  it would be great, and justified, if we could make saudi arabia pay, but i don't see how we do that without exposing our country and our military to much greater liability and lawsuits down the road

    and where should this money come from?  take it out of foreign aid we give to saudi arabia and similar countries.
