Subject: A Very Good Plea For Staying Serious

We are now seeing a post-convention bounce for Hillary Clinton, putting her on average 6 to 9 points ahead of Trump in most national polls. Democrats are no doubt exhaling with relief. But we cannot let our guard down. Hillary needs to run scared, and get up every morning pretending she is 10 points behind with her back against the wall.

Especially now that it seems the Trump campaign and the candidate himself are becoming unhinged, undone, and flying off the rails, we must more than ever insist on discipline to participate in this election. Register and get to the polls and ensure your family and friends do so as well. It is too important to the future of this country.

The Donald Trump phenomenon has become more than what was dubbed a brilliant political strategy during the Republican primary season of casting aside the old political playbook. Trump is doing much more than just shunning political correctness. He is showing us his political psychosis.

Unending tweet barrages, lusting for violence against Democratic speakers, denouncing fire marshals, attacking sacred Gold Star families who have given the ultimate in sacrifice for this great country, calling on America’s adversaries to launch cyberattacks against us, lying and flip-flopping multiple times in a single rant. This is no brilliant political strategy.

Trump simply cannot help himself if his ego and macho brand are questioned. This is a pathology of personality. It is a darkness of the mind and spirit. As Khizr Kahn so eloquently stated recently, Trump demonstrates a lack of empathy that should concern us all. He also shows a lack of humanity and the absence of normalcy and sanity.

He is a danger to this country.

Donald Trump, in his own words and deeds, has demonstrated better than anyone ever could just how temperamentally unfit, vastly unprepared and wholly unqualified he is to be our Commander in Chief.

But there are still millions of Americans who will vote for him. Millions believe he will be their savior and nothing he says or does, no matter how outrageous, abhorrent, dreadful, un-American or even criminal, will change their minds.

As such, Americans who believe this man cannot get anywhere close to the White House must understand this race will not be a cake-walk. Yes, Hillary Clinton is among the most qualified presidential candidates ever to run in the United States, but she also suffers from a frustrating and sticky un-likability factor — some of it self-inflicted, but much of it the consequence of more than three decades of right-wing character attacks.

This is why the Clinton campaign must hit back hard, but also focus on her positive message of Stronger Together, uplifting the country to find solutions to Americans’ anguish and fear. Hillary will fight and destroy ISIS, continue to bring back good paying jobs, fight for our families and children, and work hard to harness Americans’ love and kindness.

I LOVE that all the latest chatter is about whether or not Donald Trump is insane. Literally.
That and calling out Republicans like Ryan and McCain for their continued endorcement while they have to explain time and time again that What The Donald Said is not their views. How many times must they say that he doesn't stand for them, and still support him? Spineless. And America SEES IT! (NT) --
The Republican Party is TOAST!

go by whatt he said, not what the media says about him. And while you're at it how about Hillary lying "again" that the FBI found nothing wrong with what she did. NO. They just said they weren't going to prosecute her. But see, Hillary gets a pass. Hey, this is normal. Republicans bad. Democrats good. Republicans stupid. Democrats smart. Every 4 years. Eventually the old people will be trotted out and Republicans will be accused of wanting to destroy Social Security. It's the play book. Nothing new. Republicans hate women, black people, gays, etc... Every election. blah, blah, blah. (NT) -- No name, 04:24:18 08/04/16 Thu
- ...and why do you suppose that is? (NT) -- Just the Liberal Democratic Media creating a false impression, right? Nothing to do with what actually comes out of their mouths., 08:23:38 08/04/16 Thu
- And you're too stupid to know this is not some type of playbook...it's THE TRUTH. (NT) -- Just because an assload of you douche bags are in denial certainly doesn't hide that you're all of these things...and much, much more., 22:31:26 08/04/16 Thu
