lol wasting time on people personal apperances, something the so called open minded left have been doing for a year now, how can you pretend to take the higher road when most of your attacks are ad hominem,
do you guys not understand why your lack of moral compass is making Trump win,
you are literally acting like a bunch of highschoolers and apparently the fact that the Democratic.NC colluded with a criminal to make your dream candidate fail, is less important than physical appearance,muh trump racist, ivanka ugly, drumpf, orange skin, sociopath,
lol, guys thanks to you trump will win with at least 75% of the votes,
Enjoy being butthurt for 8 years

“It might may no difference, but for KY and WVA can we get someone to ask his belief. Does he believe in a God. He had skated on saying he has a Jewish heritage. I think I read he is an atheist. This could make several points difference with my peeps. My Southern Baptist peeps would draw a big difference between a Jew and an atheist,” the email says.
“AMEN,” DNC Chief Executive Officer Amy K. Dacey replied.

Jeff Weaver is pissed!!
Bernie Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver said his team was "disappointed" by the emails from the Democratic National Committee leaked through WikiLeaks, which seemed to reveal staff in the party working to support Hillary Clinton.
"Someone does have to be held accountable," Weaver said during an interview with ABC News. "We spent 48 hours of public attention worrying about who in the [Donald] Trump campaign was going to be held responsible for the fact that some lines of Mrs. Obama's speech were taken by Mrs. Trump. Someone in the DNC needs to be held at least as accountable as the Trump campaign."
Weaver said the emails showed misconduct at the highest level of the staff within the party and that he believed there would be more emails leaked, which would "reinforce" that the party had "its fingers on the scale."
"Everybody is disappointed that much of what we felt was happening at the DNC was in fact happening, that you had in this case a clear example of the DNC taking sides and looking to place negative information into the political process...

- Facebook now blocking links to wikileaks, twitter hiding trending tags... wonder why?IRNlun6
- Perhaps because Twitter is a listed company and is protecting its shareholders against possible litigation against the company.BusterBoy
- Fair point, but I think it's more fear of loosing influence rather than litigation.IRNlun6
- Not everything is a conspiracy you know, maybe it just fell off the trending list by itself.yuekit
- Falls off trending list when even the Clinton Campaign is forced to make a statement? Doubtful. Debbie W. Schultz is no longer speaking at convention either.IRNlun6
- Turns out a whole shit load of influential powerful smart people just hate trump that much. Surprised?monospaced
- People are constantly accusing Twitter of doing that whenever their favorite topic falls off the list.yuekit
- Thanks JESUS they didn't influence Fox News.monospaced
- Corruption and people feeling like they're not being represented is why Trump and Bernie have been so popular during this election.IRNlun6
- Fox and the GOP pushing 17 different candidates show they collude to alter elections as well.IRNlun6
- Collusion to what end? It was a shit show for the party.monospaced
- 17 different candidates splitting the vote is what enabled Trump to win.yuekit
- ah, so the democratic corruption extended into the right-wing fucknuts that call themselves fox news too... BREAKING ALERT!monospaced

So do you guys think Bernie supporters will try to do the same thing anti-trump republican did at the RNC?
Don't know man, clinton is seriously battling it out with trump as the worst candidate ever to run for President of the United States of these Americas.
All these fuckers are doing is making everyone fuckin hate each other for just about anything. lol

Male escorts are making crazy money at the RNC
It’s been a great week for gay escorts in Cleveland.
Male prostitutes contacted by The Post said business is booming and Republican National Convention attendees — most of them married — are clamoring for their services.
“Business has been way better. I’ve seen 10 clients so far,” one male escort said.
“Most of them were first-timers. You could tell they were nervous, but once they became more comfortable, they seemed to be having a good time.”
Another escort said he had already earned $1,600 since Monday — over six times the amount he usually makes.
“I normally only make $200 to $300, but I’ve been seeing lots of guys in hotels downtown,” he said, noting the boom in business near the Quicken Loans Arena.
The clientele has included mostly married white men between the ages of 40 and 50, said another escort who’s seen eight johns so far.

- Allegations with no evidence are enough to implicate?IRNlun6
- Yet the Secretary of States illegal private email server found with highly classified intelligence is nothing.IRNlun6
- DNC emails showing collusion with the media and Clinton campaign... nope, it's the Russians. McCarthyism 2.0IRNlun6
- How about Clinton Foundations dealing with uranium sales to Russians? Or Saudi funding a large percentage of Clintons campaign? All public and verifiable.IRNlun6
- lol cmoon man...the Saudis did not "fund a large percentage" of Clinton's campaign.yuekit
- Some people in Saudi Arabia donating to Bill Clinton's charity to fight poverty does not equal funding the campaign, much less a large percentage of it.yuekit
- FWIW, I don't think there is any real evidence Trump is working with Russia either, just a convergence of interests.yuekit
- They do to like to complain about hackers a lot http://www.rt.com/us…IRNlun6
- You'd think all their connections being hacked so much they'd be more careful.IRNlun6
- People hacking news sites to briefly put up fake stories is a real thing though. It then gets picked up by other media, good way to spread a false story andyuekit
- These wikileaks have been fucking wild. Debbie Schultz resigning, accusations of Trump working with Russia... and wikileaks is supposed to release more info!!IRNlun6
- then gets incorporated into internet rumor mongering.yuekit
- Hackers planting news is plausible but less likely. That's dated June 2016. With recent years hacking problems everywhere, they still don't guard their comms?IRNlun6
- Either way I do recognize alleging Russia is behind this is a great way to deflect from DNC leaks.IRNlun6
- I was saying the story above was clearly a case of that...do you really believe Saudi Arabia is funding Hillary's campaign?yuekit
- Hacking a random news site in a small Middle Eastern country, no probably not that difficult.yuekit
- Also speaking of Russia, notice who is raising the doubt about whether "it was really a hack" in your link above...RT :)yuekit

- They have great influence over our politics. It would not be surprising for them to fund candidates, but it's illegal so it's likely generally well concealed.IRNlun6
- They've been able to dodge connections on the largest terror attack in US history. Greasing politicians is not beyond the pale.IRNlun6
- The fact that they spend so much on lobbyists, diplomacy etc is exactly why they don't need to do something so stupid and illegal like directly fund a campaign.yuekit
- U.S. campaign funding is all audited and publicly viewable...there's no way you could conceal hundreds of millions of dollars like that.yuekit
- I'll conceded it's speculation, but more plausible than a hacker planting news.IRNlun6
- Does this means Tupac is still alive too?
