The Clinton Foundation has accepted millions of dollars from Qatar and especially Saudi Arabia. How can you possibly rationalize her accepting these monies from countries that are supporting these horrific terrorists?
Because those countries are officially our allies and friendly trade partners? I feel like you're not even reading this thread.
Oh, it's way beyond a feeling. I have had friends and coworkers like this. It all about beliefs to them, religious, political, whatever. Their beliefs are cast in stone, and facts to the contrary are of no value, dismissed without even review, and declared to be from unreliable sources, IE, not from Drudge or Breitbart.
On the yearly anniversary of the sunsetting of the Bush era tax cut (the one that gave 97% of the benefits of a half trillion dollar tax brake to the 1%) without fail, one of the right wing, fact free, trash spewing sites will issue a notice. This notice blames everything that has changed in the tax code on that greedy bastard Obama, who is trying to steal money from the middle class and hard working poor folk. It makes outrageous statements about how high YOUR margin rates have now climbed, as in 50% + in the lowest bracket, and then hits the one hot button that the truly stupid fall for every time. It states that the estate tax is skyrocketing, which is neither true, or applicable to 99.9% of the dumbasses reading this horror warning.
I finally walked away from a good friendship over shit like this. My buddy sent the notice to me, just before we were heading out to dinner. I knew what it was, but double checked everything. At the restaurant he looked at me, with a very serious look, and asked if I got the warning? I then asked if he knew that every single line was bullshit? This guy was a university grad, IBM middle manager and successful business owner, several times over. He then stated that I had no idea what I was talking about, his sources were solid, and everything was true. That was the end. I jut couldn't justify wasting anymore time with a guy who had allowed his brain to rot to that extent. We parted ways and haven't spoken since.
As a white business owner in the construction industry, it's amazing to be surrounded with other white males who, by a large margin, hold these kind of beliefs. In many cases there is absolutely no factual basis for anything that comes out of their mouths, and they are fueled by nothing but hate, propaganda, and at least some level of racism, but there is no way to even shoehorn a single fact into their minds. If it wasn't full of so many horrendous potential disasters, I would almost like to see a Trump presidency, with a republican house and senate. Only to watch all these idiots and their followers during four years of what would certainly be the greatest shit show in recorded history. Extremism lead by a savior who promises to fix all the nations problems, from crime, to resurrecting the industrial base, to turning back the clock and making it a white, wonderful, 1950s era. Leave it to Beaver wonderland. It's like a new ghost dance insurrection, only this time the medicine man is a narcissistic, morally bankrupt blowhard, with an orange squirrel for a toupee.
Seriously, you couldn't of made this shit up is you tried. Not only is it a shit show, but election day is far from the end of this mess.
