I think Hillary gave a great account for swing voters. Donald has an opportunity. Hope he hits him on nukes, Putin, and ground war.
global1
(25,294 posts)HRC is just about done and they really didn't scratch the surface of the purpose of this forum. Matt wasted a great deal of time with the e-mails. MSNBC spent the whole day talking about this forum. They should have spent that time on the actual forum rather than talking about it all day. It was rushed and it was a shoddy job on their part. Now we have to listen to Trump spew his lies and venom. I wonder if Lauer will grill him or toss him softballs.

(19,253 posts)Wow. He bombed that. He didn't have an answer for most of the questions. I think he had about 2 answers that could be seen as good and the rest he totally flopped.
Night and day on knowing the issues between the two.

He's just pulling shit out of his mouth, doesn't care how insulting he is. I think he believes he can bring in the retired military people to tell him what to do.

(35,703 posts)It is one of the reasons the Russians lost so many men in WWII - Stalin had purged most of the experienced generals and it took a while to train a new cadre of military leaders.

(22,676 posts)It's in HRC mental health care plan. She just released it a week ago. It's online and it DOES ADDRESS HOMELESSNESS.
Paragraph 1
Moreover, many of these individuals have additional complicating life circumstances, such as drug or alcohol addiction, homelessness, - HillaryClinton.com
Look into it. Don't take my word for it. Give Hillary a look. She's your candidate. She addresses your concerns, as she's done for others throughout her life. But don't tell me that neither candidate doesn't have a plan. Hillary does and she's on record spelling out her specifics on it.

(42,001 posts)It would be smart to, as the guy said, drill down.
SummerSnow
(12,608 posts)And she has released a detailed Veterans Agenda that outlines a robust plan for tackling the issues facing veterans, our service members, and their families, including expanding access to mental health care and treatment, ending the epidemic of veteran suicide, and reducing homelessness.

(2,404 posts)use this time to talk about policy and not spend it bashing their opponent.
Both Trump and Hillary broke the rules. But by my count, Hillary was critical of Trump (I don't think she even used his name) three times. On the other hand Trump referred to Hillary at least 9 times.

(1,907 posts)Dipshit donnie in about 3 sentences went from he already had a great plan, to he was going to have generals make a plan within 30 days. to I'm going to make a plan at some future date and decide if my plan is better then the generals. Three differing statements on his plan with in 3 sentences? WTF
Imagine him trying to make a critical decision? I sure can't.

(265 posts)I can't even provide a fresh critique of what he said tonight, since he said nothing new and nothing of substance.

(698 posts)Trump made half a dozen statements last night at the Commander-in-Chief Forum, which in all honesty, should have disqualified him from the Presidency. Such as:
# Trump trashed the US military
# Trump made a mockery of our Military Generals
# Trump lied about his position on Iraq ... again
# Trump lied about the CIA briefing
# Trump professed his love for Putin ... again
# Trump blamed military sexual assaults on the victims
These are just a few of Trump's "WACKY" statements from last night in less than 30 minutes while fielding softball questions from Matt Lauer who was probably interviewing for show on the future Trump TV Network.
And today, all CNN is doing is talking about Hillary's statements about the emails and her statement that she will not want to place ground troops in a war against ISIS preferring instead to use other military means to defeat them once and for all.
Shame on CNN.They're trying to emulate Fox News while pretending to be impartial. America is not stupid and can see what is going on. No wonder CNN viewership is on the decline and their hosts are made a mockery on all the comedy channels.
And NBC is silent on Matt Lauer's XXX rated cozying up to Trump at the Forum !!
