Only if you are a computer. Even your decision to post this discussion is based on your own opinions.

Exactly. Every human has opinions, you can not remove that.

1LT Sandy Annala - that's why we love you. :)
There is no honor among thieves and there is no honesty among politicians. If you want to see where a candidates loyalties lie, stop listening to them and pay attention to where they get their money.

Maj Rob Drury - Forbes puts Trump at $3.3 billion. Senior federal politicians are usually asked to put aside their business interests in a blind trust . . . not just it in the name of a family member. What will Trump do re conflicts? Warmest Regards, Sandy :)

1LT Sandy Annala - Trump's ego and desire to resonate causes him to bumble a lot, but when it comes down to execution, the guy is analytical and resolute. Despite his gargantuan self-importance, he has proven that he's not too big to humbly surround himself with competent advisors and make the right decisions for the right reasons. Ironically, I think his bravado is actually a good thing here. While the Obamas and Clintons of the world make every decision based on their anticipation of the next CNN poll, Trump will do what he genuinely believes is best for the nation, all else be damned; and he will earnestly seek the best, most qualified advice available to make his decsions.
Hey, I'm not certain that Donald Trump is a return to the bigger-than-life persona that everyone deep down wants in the White House, but it sure ain't Hillary.

Maj Rob Drury - I sincerely hope you are right - for the sake of the country. Sandy :)
Sorry. I'm not buying it. Website purporting to "fact check" or dispel "urban myths" are highly suspect. Let's take this story. Donald Trump shoots from the hip. He is more concerned with making noise than being right. However, I have never met a liar who spoke as he does. Not one. It's impossible to keep your lies straight when you shotgun them all over the place. Hillary on the other hand is a ratchet liar. She hides the truth behind little white lies. When these are exposed, she ratchets up the next lie. Is everything she says a lie? Of course not. But, she lies, especially about the significant stuff. Am I certain? Absolutely. We've all seen her do it. Just some won't admit it, not even to themselves so they can continue supporting her for one sick reason or another. So, take this article and use it to light a fire (in Hillary's pants suit)

CPT Jack Durish - I have no personal relationship with Trump. I'm not in casino or hotel real estate business nor is Trump in the government, diplomatic, national security, or intelligence business. Bringing Trump in to run the federal government is like hiring the "village idiot" to perform brain surgery. It would be quite a show - but will end in disaster. He does not even comprehend he will need the support and consent of the US Congress to accomplish much of anything. What has he done for the Congress apart from scare the dickens out of Republican who lose their seats in this election? Warmest Regards, Sandy :)

1LT Sandy Annala - You actually think that managing a bureaucracy equates with brain surgery? No, I know you don't really mean that. Republicans might lose their seats in Congress? Doesn't bother me. They haven't done much with them. They caved to Obama at every key moment. And as for disasters, we're Americans. We have set up ourselves for countless disasters just to prove we could survive them

CPT Jack Durish - Drawing up the budget for the entire worldwide operations of the U S State Department including everything from apples and communications to small arms and transportation . . . negotiating and defending that budget . . . then managing to operate within that budget during the coming year . . . given all vague uncertainties of the international political and security environment . . . you betcha . . . more complicated than opening the skull, aspirating a 4 x 6 cm glioblastoma, packing the cavity with gelfoam and gliadel wafers, and closing up after surgery. I gather you have no great warmth sympathy for the congress critters who have endured the past eight years and will endure the next four to eight years under one of the two viable candidates? Warmest Regards, Sandy :)
