Phantom Roxas Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-nation/wp/2016/10/29/trump-supporter-charged-with-voting-twice-in-iowa/?utm_term=.a4fd06b1ef3b Hypocrisy, hypocrisy.He goes from shaming voter fraud to bragging about how those people could vote for him, and he's smiling about it. It's hard to take his complaints about this election being "rigged" when he jokes about them benefitting him. Oh, and here's my favorite part of that article. Polk County Auditor Jamie Fitzgerald told the Register that it was the first time in 12 years he could remember having to report possible voter fraud.Interesting how the first actual proof of rigging the election is actually Trump's own group. It seems that Trump is actually the one who's guilty of encouraging crime, and is merely projecting onto Clinton to avoid culpability for his own camp.

Tourmaline Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 Oh, and here's my favorite part of that article.

It seems that Trump is actually the one who's guilty of encouraging crime, and is merely projecting onto Clinton to avoid culpability for his own camp.No, you're just blindly indignant. Hillary had this rigged since way before the general election. If Trump was only rigging at the finals of a 32 man tournament then Hillary had this rigged since the first match and much more so than Trump even at his worst. All your favorite part does is show how much of a tool you are, though admittedly the belief in self is admirable. Unless you think Trump had been promoting this stuff since before Kaine and Hillary made contact about this. Worse so she was probably just hired by Hillary to paint Trump worse than he really is. Hillary used the tactic of hiring actors to act as Trump supporters to make that group look bad often before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Roxas Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 Oh, I should have clarified. I do believe that Hillary rigged the primary election, and even then, I'm willing to hear that she didn't. I don't believe that she's had as much influence in rigging the general election as she did in the primary. Hillary cheated her way to get here, but if Trump loses to her here, that's because of his own failings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 pew research did a big study on it showing how massive of a problem it is: http://www.pewtrusts.org/~/media/legacy/uploadedfiles/pcs_assets/2012/pewupgradingvoterregistrationpdf.pdfthis isn't about voter fraud. It is about the issues in the voting system. Literally the only mention of the word "fraud" is that these inefficiencies could lead to the perception of fraud. Trump used this source before, and this issue with it was pointed out before. As for dead voters, this discussion has been played out. They are registered due to negligence in purging the voter list. Just because they are registered doesn't mean they are voting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine Jesse Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 If the economy really WAS doing well, the fed would have raised rates, but it's not only not doing so but is considering negative rates(which is basically insane-asylum economics where you want something in the future than you do now, it's flipping time-preference on its head), and this is on top of both a student loan bubble raising education and an auto loan bubble and skyrocketing debt. And even with all of those artificial boosts that don't last you still get this: AND healthcare costs are going to go up in 2017. All from St Louis Fed.It's like trying to gauge the happiness of an an alcoholic or a drug addict, you know he won't stay happy forever and he STILL isn't particularly happy either way. And sure, voter fraud isn't exclusively a democrat issue. Nobody ever claimed it was, but democrats do it overwhelmingly more, with clinton saying in wikileaks emails that she will try to commit it in some way. There's a video on it here. and pew research did a big study on it showing how massive of a problem it is: http://www.pewtrusts.org/~/media/legacy/uploadedfiles/pcs_assets/2012/pewupgradingvoterregistrationpdf.pdf CBS also did an investigation on it and two thirds of dead voters were registered democrat in california(well, she is the dead people candidate at least).What is that, a graph for ants? What is it with people not linking the wikileaks links themselves? It's not a claim I can take at face value when I've been shown dozens of times in this very thread that what's said in them is misinterpreted, taken out of context, or outright lied about. Good one, now look at the Feds newest monetary policy It's a bubble love. Newsflash darling, the more you lower intrest rates the more it looks like it's growing. Problem is, inflation is gonna go up faster now and it's not sustainable. Nice try though Voter fraud is a problem regardless of who does it, but it's predominantly a dem thing. How about we just pass if laws and fix it. You raise me one Iowan. I raise you 3 HRC Californians How about I one up you with a bunch of HRC people beating up a homeless black trump supporter?The difference is that it was Trump himself. It's a bit different than supporters being a******s (although still ultimately pointless because everyone already knows Trump is a racist and it's a big part of his appeal in some circles).

mido9 Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 Hey Mido, do you have a link to those graphs that allow us to look at them in more detail? I.E. see the individual graphs and see the actual axis and maybe the data making them up? Because I looked on the St Louis federal bank site but couldn't find the plots, and without being able to do that I am incapable of seeing any of those graphs in any level of detail. For all I can tell from there is at some arbitrary time these things went up arbitrary amounts. It doesn't actually tell me anything because I can't read any of the details that make them pertinent. Where did you get the fed considering negative (I presume) interest rates from as well? It's from here Student LoansFood StampsFederal DebtLabor Force ParticipationBlack Inequality (Employment is a bigger number tho methinks.)Median Family Income Most of these numbers have the same general trend of all of them all getting better from 1980s/1990s ish until 2008 and afterwards and they just keep going down. The NIRP thing is from here, from CNN: http://money.cnn.com/2016/02/11/news/economy/negative-interest-rates-janet-yellen/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerion Brightflame Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 My thanks. I had no issues with the things the plots were showing, because all are fairly intuitive with how you'd expect things to be in the wake of the recession. It was just the fact that without being able to see the details on the graphs they were useless because it's just an indication of a trend. Not any details about said trend. A handful of these links (Like median income, social benefits and black unemployment) do indicate the economy getting better in the past few years which is something. To expand upon your initial metaphor; yes the guy is still a drug addict but we've managed to get him hooked on meth instead of heroin. It's still shitty, it's just not as bad as things once were. The source for the interests rates is from the start of the year. Whilst sure, that is still technically the fed considering negative interest rates, we have far more recent sources talking about them considering increasing the interest rates in the following months. In fact in the very article about the economic growth that was posted earlier: http://money.cnn.com/2016/10/12/news/economy/federal-reserve-minutes/index.html?iid=EL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that Trump is actually the one who's guilty of encouraging crime, and is merely projecting onto Clinton to avoid culpability for his own camp. That's a load of bullshit, one woman in Iowa was a Trump voter who tried to vote twice, Roxas conveniently ignored like the 10 similar cases that happened with Dems this weeks. He was full of sheet and Hina called him out on it. Roxas should have stopped at it was a trump supporter. And then maybe pushed for voter id laws since this election SHOULD be fairly done on both sides. Hina wasn't wrong in calling him a fool, because instead of doing that he went off extrapolating some vendetta against Trump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerion Brightflame Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 It doesn't matter if Hina is right; they could have and should have addressed the issue without resorting to personal insults. Being right or wrong does not factor into it because it's the conduct that is the issue. Hina, under there own admission, doesn't have much interest in engaging in the debate here, so it would be nice if the little they did post was of decent conduct instead of personal sheet. Take like Mido, mido posts very little but at least keeps focused on the issues instead of the personal sheet. It's fine if you take issue with what Roxas posted. But it doesn't justify Hina's choice of addressing things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
