This election is going to suck: Why Hillary vs. Trump will be vicious, infuriating & bad for America
Salon ^ | Wednesday, May 4, 2016 5:10 PM UTC | Jack Mirkinson

This is really happening, people. Either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump is going to be the next president of the United States.

Just saying it still feels strange, but then again, pretty much everything about this most shocking and chaotic of election seasons has been deeply surreal.

So basically, he's saying it's REALLY bad because the Republican nominee seems as if he will fight back this time instead of assuming the usual GOPe position:

. Both Trump and Clinton are basically detestable people. I wouldn’t want to be associated with either, personally or professionally.

Benjamin Franklin was a crude, cussing lecher; a drunk and a glutton. We needed him then.

Winston Churchill was a mean drunk, and a sarcastic prick. England needed him then.

Trump is crude, and has a tendency to say whats on his mind, damn the PC. We need him right now.

Does anyone REALLY think Donald will let let himself be beaten by Hillary after coming this far?

Donald is brilliant and tireless, and he knows ALL the dirt on the criminal Hillary. Not being PC crippled and spineless as the rest of the politicians, he will hit her with ALL of it.

He will SLAUGHTER her.

And those of you who are so angry that Cruz will not be the nominee that you will not vote; you'd best rethink that. We MUST, repeat MUST get the Republicans back in power again (corrupt as they are, they are better than the commie rats)

ANYONE WHO STAYS HOME AND DOES NOT VOTE IS CASTING A VOTE FOR THE CRIMINAL HILLARY. THERE WILL BE THE USUAL RAT VOTER FRAUD AND CHEATING. WE MUST ALL GET OUT AND VOTE. WE CAN DEFEAT HILLARY IF WE DO.

Straight from the article...

Trump is a neo-fascist thug whose hatred of women courses through every vein in his body, and who has already promised to make his fight with Clinton very personal.

No bias WHATSOEVER!

What will suck for Salon is that Trump will hold nothing back with Hillary. All of her failures and personality disorders will be attacked, ceaselessly .

I can imagine a Jeb Bush against Hillary. The Left would pull out the old play book. Make Jeb apologize for his everything under the sun, They would say - let’s just “debate the issues.” This election is “all about jobs.” No personality attacks or mention of character.

This time the old playbook and stupid cliches will NOT work for Clinton or Salon.

Well said, Laz.

Only I disagree with them. Donald is likeable and charismatic.

That is somewhat of a general "topic barometer" utilized in my life.
When hated by Salon, Huffington Post, and mainstream media...I am likely for it.

Democracy isn’t always please and thank you, smiles, and best friends. It is time for some real hardball politics as for too long we’ve avoided offending people, tried to get along, and got stepped on, shoved aside, and abused for our efforts. With Trump we’ve got a candidate that will not quit, hide from his shadow, or worry about hurting someone’s precious feelings.

..... Trump better not have any serious skeletons in his closet ..... Hillary will have all of the American media and Intelligence assets compromised to her favor and can bring up any and all dirt available at the most strategically appropriate time. Hillary also is entering the race with an Electoral advantage which will make Trump's campaign efforts an uphill battle.

..... Hopefully Mr. Trump won't be just relying on National Enquirer for his defenses against Hillary.

As have the last 5 or 6 elections.

Agreed.

We've had to put up with almost 30 years of the ruling class, Ivy League do-gooders telling us how to live. We've been very patient, while our institutions and society were eroded. And then, to see what they have done with our economy is criminal.

I can't say that I believe that Trump is necessarily the answer, but based on the reaction of the people that have brought us where we are today, there must be some reason they fear him. And just for once, I want to see them not get their way.

Trump is going to leave the Clinton Legacy a smoking, smoldering wreckage along the side of the highway.

We’ve got a qualified leader. Or are you one of those insiders-only-need-apply GOP types? Uh huh.

This election is only gonna suck for Hillary. I’m gonna enjoy every second!

Trump all the way.
