WH put it nicely in another thread
If HRC laid the groundwork for that, I'm ok with that.
As is always the case, CC is emotional and has an irrational fear of Iran and their nuclear ambitions.

Paul Ryan finds an odd time to endorse Donald Trump
Three months ago, the Speaker proudly declared,
“Today I want to be very clear about something: if a person wants to be the nominee of the Republican Party,
there can be no evasion and no games,
they must reject any group or cause that is built on bigotry.
This party does not prey on people’s prejudices.” HOLY !
And then Donald Trump preyed on people’s prejudices anyway.

Repugs are SUCH bags, their voters, too.
Does not liking people attacking other people at opposing party political events, Burning the US flag and waving Mexican flags and signs saying "make California Mexico" makes one prejudiced?
Thats not free speech, thats anarchist fascism.
The victims of Manifest Destiny have long memories.
It's called the right of conquest. It's a thing.
Maybe if the Indians and Mexico had protected their borders a little better they wouldn't be so upset now.
Chickens coming home to roost. I'd like to see the extended version of those vids. We know how trump supporters get down. They started this violence .

‘This is how authoritarianism starts’
Given how little Donald Trump knows about government, policy, the public sector, and public ins utions, it’s difficult to say exactly how he’d govern if elected president. But the New York Timesreports today that legal experts from across the spectrum believe the presumptive Republican nominee has sketched out “a cons utional worldview that shows contempt for the First Amendment, the separation of powers and the rule of law.”
Indeed, the article quoted a variety of conservative and libertarian legal scholars who fear a Trump presidency could create “a cons utional crisis” if/when the political amateur took steps to implement some of his stated goals: banning Muslims from entering the country, “loosening” libel laws to encourage lawsuits against news organizations, and even using federal regulators to punish his detractors.
David Post, a retired law professor who now writes for the Washington Post’s Volokh Conspiracy, said in reference to Trump’s attacks on a judge he doesn’t like, “This is how authoritarianism starts.” UC Berkely’s John Yoo, best known as the author of the Bush/Cheney Torture Memos, called Trump’s perspective “disturbing.”
And when John Yoo thinks your views on government abuses are excessive, it’s probably time to re-think your life choices.
But perhaps most interesting was the response from congressional Republicans to these kinds of concerns. From the Times’ report:Oh, good, we’ve apparently reached a new point in our discourse. Leading Republican members of Congress are reassuring the public that their party’s presidential nominee probably won’t be a Cons ution-ignoring authoritarian – and if he is, there are probably ins utions in place to stop him.
Republican leaders say they are confident that Mr. Trump would respect the rule of law if elected. “He’ll have a White House counsel,”
( Maybe dubya's counsel torture-loving Woo can come back, along with psychologists who advised how to torture! )
Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the majority leader, told Hugh Hewitt, the radio host, on Monday. “There will be others who point out there’s certain things you can do and you can’t do.”
Senator John McCain, Republican of Arizona, who has become a reluctant supporter of Mr. Trump, said he did not believe that the nation would be in danger under his presidency.
“I still believe we have the ins utions of government that would restrain someone who seeks to exceed their cons utional obligations,” Mr. McCain said. “We have a Congress. We have the Supreme Court. We’re not Romania.”
“Our ins utions, including the press, are still strong enough to prevent” uncons utional acts, he said.
( yep, just like they prevented the Iraq war, dubya's team destroying Ms of WH emails, etc, etc.
SCOTUS? the "money-is-speech, the BigCorps-are-people, the "racism-is-over" SCOTUS?
Putting aside whether their optimism is warranted, since when does the United States even have to ask questions like these?
The Atlantic published a piece from David Frum the other day about democracy’s “guardrails” and the degree to which Trump “snapped through” them while undermining traditional American norms. The response from GOP lawmakers like McConnell and McCain seems to be that, if elected, there’s another set of structural constraints that would prevent a President Trump from doing catastrophic damage to our system of government.
Their sanguine posturing is probably meant to be reassuring, but the broader question remains the same:
why would the country elect someone who intends to deliberately put unprecedented strains on those guardrails?

A bigger sign of America being ed and un able is the 71% of Democrats who still think Hillary should run if indicted.‘This is how authoritarianism starts’

Little Boy Repug has been "crying wolf" on the Clintons for 25 years. Dems and independents KNOW that the Repugs are behind all the anti-Hillary witch hunting.
I'll LMFAO if Hillary doesn't get indicted.
How is she MORE GUILTY than the dubya/ head/PNAC assholes whose treason of lies and war crimes got 1000s of US military killed, $Ts of taxpayer dollars wasted?
emails? r u ing kidding us?
Not all Dems are as ignorant as you.

Her "image" problem is the same as Obama's image problem: Repugs have been lying about, slandering both of them forever. The truth is lost, the lies get repeated until dumb s believe them as Bible truth.
Trump has a horrible image problem, disliked even more than Hillary.
Your guy got shreaded last night.
And now he's saying racist about that judge and his own party is revolting.
You got quite the prize.
Mitch why is your boy so inept putting a simple sentence together without bundling it?
