    No, more like Jeff Fisher; average to awful results yet maintains his gig year after year.

    She's a tough comp in the sports world. Maybe Donald Sterling?

    Doesn't matter . I would vote for a dead fern over Hillary Clinton .
    i don't think I could lol at this enough..don't worry minorities... Trump is an evil racist, but if you bit for Hillary she will give you and interstate running through your front yard, and you'll think you got it so good.

    Could you give some specifics about how the convention was speaking to "white people"?

    Why do democrats feel the need to make EVERYTHING about race?

    They were very explicit about wanting the country to work for everyone, actually.

    I am not going to go through the whole list, just this part

    Trump says: "Homicides last year increased by 17 percent in America’s 50 largest cities. That’s the largest increase in 25 years. In our nation’s capital, killings have risen by 50 percent. They are up nearly 60 percent in nearby Baltimore."

    That was fact checked last night on CNN and they concluded it was TRUE. Of course, vox.com, which is about as liberal as HuffPost, determined it to be FALSE. No surprise there really. :)

    If anything Trump is Donald Sterling...rich guy who says stupid stuff, doesn't care who he's saying it to, doesn't know what he's talking about anyway and is at least somewhat racist.

    Hillary is more Belichick, extremely capable but abrasive and just as unpopular with more than a hint of scandal looking for an edge

    When an article says something like this, "And even if the nationwide murder rate increased by 17 percent in 2015, that rate would remain far, far below the peaks of the 1960s and '70s and below any period in the '90s", I tend to lose all interest but in the interest of looking at all sides I read on
    Basically they are OK with a 17% increase in murder because it isn't as high as it was 30, 40, 50 years ago.

    Now they made that statement in response to Trump's claim that, "Homicides last year increased by 17 percent in America’s 50 largest cities. That’s the largest increase in 25 years. In our nation’s capital, killings have risen by 50 percent. They are up nearly 60 percent in nearby Baltimore."
    So their statement seems to agree with Trump's statement yet they still claim it is misleading.

    They also state in an earlier paragraph, "there aren’t full nationwide statistics for all of 2015 or even part of 2016 yet" but then state "For DC, that sharp increase came between 2014 and 2015 — so far in 2016, murder is down 9 percent.". So do they want to reference 2016 stats or not?

    He also questions Trump's use of raw numbers instead of rate when talking about illegal immigrants but the author then goes on to use raw numbers when discussing the 5 million have been added to the labor force even though 14.8 million have been added to the population in that time frame.

    He then questions Trumps claim of a $800B trade deficit that is actually $681B which may be true, Trump over stated the number, but the author couldn't stop there. He stated "It’s also worth noting that many economists do not consider high trade deficits to be inherently bad.". That wouldn't be too bad, except in his link to the $681B figure the article headline is "Despite seemingly stable U.S. trade balance, rapidly growing trade deficits in non-oil goods could lead to American job losses". Looks like he picked one economist that did not agree about trade deficits not being bad.

    That's only about 1/4 of the way through the article, I'm sure there is more.

    All that said I'm still not voting for Trump unless something big changes.

    I don't see how you get from eliminating the electoral college to favoring bloated government.

    A lot of people getting busy lately on here after claiming racism with nothing to back it up.

    Your definition of "looking for an edge" needs a tweak. She's just as corrupt as Trump if not more.

    whats funny is libs will tell you how racist a border wall is... If Hillary was to come out next week and say she will instead build a 40 foot electric fence the same libs will debate you on how the fence is so much more kind
