Still a lot of uncounted votes. Plenty of sites projecting Trump to win popular vote, including CNN.

Not exactly surprising, HN is heavily people in CA, which is a huge echo chamber.

Oh cool, it's another person sneering at Trump supporters who just doesn't get it. Thanks for all your unfounded vitriol, Trump wouldn't have been possible without people like you.

It might have something to do with Hispanics being regular human beings that are capable of independent thought. They voted for Trump for the same reasons as everyone else.

The story you linked is only on the politics sub-page, and it's under 3 anti-Trump spotlight stories and buried in the middle of other anti-Trump stories.

There is a blackout, it's just not a 100% blackout.

Your comment isn't exactly constructive or interesting either.

I don't think most employers are struggling for a lack of employment pool. The economy and unemployment is pretty shit world-wide right now. The only people making out like bandits are the high specialized folks that can demand it.

As someone who has dozens of these cheap SSRs, thanks for this. A lot of them don't even have English labels on them. I'll be sure to not use them in any critical situation or something that might be fire-prone.

Podesta is part of the opaque political machine that has largely betrayed the American people. I have no sympathy when, as a last ditch resort to restore a semblance of accountability, a person working on a campaign for a public office gets their emails served as public record. Especially when Americans have been denied their fight to FOIA Hillary's emails during her SoS tenure by her use of a private email server.

The issue is that being able to discharge student loans is more a function of either becoming a near-vegetable or losing both arms and both legs. It's not really the result of bankruptcy as most people know it.

I disagree. jQuery is dead simple. You select an element and call a function on it. That's pretty much it. I think a 5 year old could understand that.

Vue.js requires a lot of different concepts that many developers have never run into before. There are multiple parts working together. It is tremendously more difficult to understand (though only on relative terms, no absolute).

Exactly that happened on Lenovo laptops. There was BIOS level code that re-installed malware/spyware on your laptop even if you formatted and reinstalled from scratch or used an entirely new hard drive.

Your better bet would be buying a $1000 2000W generator. 4 gallons of gas will give you 24 hours of peak output. About 2 gallons for less than peak output for 24 hours. They're pretty quiet, too, and smaller than a carry-on suit case.

Gore himself has said, after lots of investigation, he is confident Bush won the electoral vote of Florida.

I'm more concerned about our President's view about foreign wars that kill tens to hundreds of thousands of civilians, but I guess if you want to focus on their tweets then go ahead.

I would love to see sources of him saying the elections are rigged if he doesn't win, regardless of circumstances, and it being clear he meant it literally.

Also, suck it: http://i.imgur.com/DJgcABL.png

There's no easy way to for me to 100% prove that's my image or that I immediately hit the "cast ballot" button after taking it, but I promise you won't find that image anywhere else on the internet. And if it helps further drive the point home, there is at most one Republican on that entire ballot.

Seems like a matter of time before someone does the same thing, but without the bullshit "we keep 10% of everything".

Oh no, he tweeted at 3AM. Obviously unqualified to be President.

Pathetic.

Ok - I looked this up. DNC paid out some money when Obama used AF1. They only paid at the rate of what a regular charter jet would cost, but that makes sense. I don't have a problem with this and I rescind that particular part of my argument.

>Every single president in the history of our democracy has done this. Every single one of them.

This NPR article calls it "unusual" but maybe I am missing something since I only read it at a glance: http://www.npr.org/2016/07/07/485097272/fact-check-air-force...

>Potential violations of statues, without criminal intent ≠ "inarguably highly illegal things".

One does not need to intend to do something for it to be highly illegal. There is an absolute boat load of cases where people did 1/10th of what Hillary did, without any proven intent, and went to prison for it. Thousands of people are prosecuted every day by our criminal justice system without any intent.

And in the same quote: "potential violations". He completely dodged having to explicitly say that it was illegal, which anyone with a security clearance can plainly tell you. The only reason he didn't explicitly say she didn't break the law was because it would be a lie that he even couldn't pull off.

It is so blindingly obvious that this is a load of horse shit. He is being vague, misleading, and deliberately obtuse.

For the record, I don't support Trump. I think it's highly likely he has sexually assaulted women in the past, I think he's tremendously unqualified to be president, his plan to lower corporate income tax is complete bullshit, and even if he hasn't explicitly said anything racist (I'm not informed enough to say either way) I think it's awful that he's cultivating racists around him unapologetically.

Despite all this, I am fucking sick and tired at the outright lies, slander, and disingenuous arguments against Trump. There is plenty to attack him on without all the bullshit. And I'm sick of the Hillary reality distortion that is, from what I can tell, the absolute epitome of everything wrong with politics today.

My point is that it is morally void, one candidate is doing it, the other isn't. That it's been done historically has absolutely zero relevance as to whether it is a moral thing to do (see literally any example of civil rights laws progressing over the past 300 years).

Obama called it rigged in 2008.

He was obviously not serious in a literal sense of his words. He was making a point. It'd be like being a football coach shit talking before a game - "the other team should give up, they don't stand a chance". He doesn't literally mean they should give up.

This is so blindly obvious to me and anyone else who's capable of a rational thought. I cannot believe you are seriously try to suggest he meant that in the sense that he wants to subvert the election process.

Exactly. The anti-Trump hyperbole is ridiculous and ruins any credibility people have when attacking him.

>"Inarguably"? If it was truly "inarguable" Comey would have recommended prosecution in the first place.

Go look at the reason he gives for not recommending prosecution. It has nothing to do with whether what she did was illegal.

Go Google the rest yourself, it's not hard to find and I'm not going to waste my time trying to convince someone who can't be convinced. My comments are targeted at people reading this who might not be aware of the bullshit going on.

This is all disingenuous hyperbole. There are plenty of terrible things to pin on Trump without inflating bullshit memes. There is a nugget of truth to some of what you say, but it is not said or meant in the way you state it, and there's no nuggets of truth in anything I have seen that has anything to do with subverting the voting system.

I don't believe so, but we have plenty of shitty precedents with Obama's 8 years.

There is a lot of historical precedent. A US President can generally claim immunity to everything except an impeachment. Regardless of laws, you'd never find someone capable of arrest the US President. Secret service would quickly fill anyone attempting to do so with bullets. Worst case scenario, the President can go hang out at a military base of which he or she has absolute authority. Good luck having the DC Police SWAT one of those.

Except this is exactly what happened last time. They had concrete evidence, they essentially said what she did was illegal, it would have been a slam-dunk case, but regardless said they didn't recommend prosecuting because they didn't think it was feasible.
