Everyone keeps talking about Trump but no one takes about Mike Pence, one of the most dangerous Republican loons in the country that believes in Conversion therapy for gays and doesn't believe smoking causes cancer.
If Trump wins, Mike Pence will be the real president and you can bet your ass that he will rubber stamp everything Paul Ryan sends his way.
Let's just hope we don't blow this.

Wouldn't be the first time we'd had a devil as a VP with acting president powers

Alright gaf be real with me, does trump have any shot what's so ever or can I go to sleep without a worry here? Cause I'm worried here right now and can't sleep, I need me some reassurance.
once you have decided something is rigged, anything pointing to the contrary can also be conveniently hand-waved away as similarly rigged in conjunction
...something about this logic feels familiar
He has a very real shot to win.

Watching his rally was just absurd. There's politicising and then there's just making claims that aren't possible. He's talking about opening factories and car manufacturing plants and stuff - all things that can't and won't happen. He just says what -insert state name- wants to hear and they lap it up. Its so depressing. I'm so anxious and I'm not even American. Smashing a few beers to relax. Hoping to wake to good news in the morning!

It's so hard discussing this with people.
"Yeah, but Clinton also just says what people want to hear."
"Yeah, but Clinton also lies."
I mean, it's very hard to combat.

Why do you even bother?
Would you try to argue with someone who still believes the earth is flat? There's no point.
I'm an immigrant, so yeah, fuck Trump. May he lose. Also, being a transgender woman, I worry for the lgbtq+ community in this country, so double fuck him, and Pence too.
I put all my faith in the citizens of this country now, that they'll elect the most qualified candidate in Hillary. This is completely out of my hands.

When international polls have all shown that nearly all countries (aside from Russia) completely reject Trump?
I think you're mistaken. I think that, on average, outsiders have a WAY more healthy perspective on things.
He is waiting for some global warming to melt the snow.Looking forward to our new god emperor
Go to sleep. It´s basically white old-middle age people vs every other demographic in USA, Trump would need a miracle to win the states he need.

America do the right thing and vote Hillary. You absolutely must not let Trump win this election.

So I just noticed everyone in the rThe_Donald sub-Reddit types in all caps.... Why is that?
Was that a sub Reddit for people with stuck caps before the election?

America has a lot more minorities than the UK.

damn, he looks like the next president
Lord Ashcroft (UK Pollster) on Sky News
Has spent the last 6 months doing focus groups in USA
3 things he noted that kept coming up
it nearly always ended up with the group talking about personalty rather than policy...
people who admitted they were voting Trump had not told their friends and family, and finally a recurring theme was about the debates, with people feeling it was a given Hilary would win the debates because she has had 30 years practice...
When pushed on who would win.... He was on the fence, he said most pollsters go for Hilary, however he believes it will come down to turnout

Yeah, there's no winning with people. It's impossible for her to prove her commitment to any of the issues without her actually being president and doing this shit (unless you look at her voting record in the Senate and activism in public life, but even then I've heard people argue that was only a means to an end of becoming president and doing a total 180 on her platform because durrrrrr).
Of course, she could end up being the most progressive president this side of FDR and people will still doubt her sincerity. Whenever she signs a law they'll call it pandering or argue that she doesn't really believe it as if that fucking means something.
so like brexit ? and it still happend
America has a much larger minority and immigrant population.

This is not a referendum, it´s not a Yes vs a No ballot on a national scale. You need to win key states and the ones that Trump need are not looking good for him. The demographics are not the same neither.
It COULD happen, but it´s way easier for Hillary to get it. She has multiple paths, Trump just have a narrow one. It would need a major fuckup from Hillary camp and Trump camp doing at its best.

Don't take it as lecturing you Rob. Take it as expressing solidarity. Besides, it is maybe all we can do to help. GAf may be left-leaning, but perhaps there are lurkers who are not, or who at least undecided. It does no harm, and may do some good, to show support from others around the world.
And yes, people can fuck off with the lesser of two evils thing.
I know paths. I have the best paths, believe me.

Yeah that's just the one guy. A lot of us know America is looked up to around the world and don't take the well meaning posts as condescending/trolling.
Hillary's got this. I'm omw to vote right now
I really hope if Hillary wins one of the mods will immediately turn that place into r/The_Hillary and auto play "Celebration" just to piss off everyone there. At least that would show it was just a troll subreddit all along.
I mean, I know the most vocal ppl online don't represent the entirety of his fanbase but what we're seeing on various discussion sites and at televised rallies...
Those people aren't just going away quietly now. They've been united and given a stage, a loud voice. Not a chance they just let that slip away and return to being quietly crazy alone.
To what extent they can actually cause chaos or dispute/disrupt any processes I have no idea, but I'm convinced we will be hearing about this for a long, long time.

Vote for Hillary!!
Down with racist trump!!

Well personally I don't really give much of a shit what they think about it. It's our election, not theirs.
It reminds me of when Obama went over to the UK and tried to preach at the British to stay in the EU. Even as an American it rubbed me wrong and came off as incredibly tone deaf. Concern trolling from foreigners is at best annoying and at worst patronizing as fuck. Leave us alone and let us make our own bed as we've been doing for the last 200+ years, please.
EDIT: and yeah that's Quincy, who is BY FAR the most experienced person ever elected to the office.

chill out there's nothing wrong with people being interested in our election.
It's not like they can actually vote in it anyway let them discuss. The more discussion the better.

In the world of online forums, Does it feel like it's "Neogaf vs The Internet" during this entire election? I can't think of another place that is super pro-Clinton as this.
