Re: US Election 2016
Meanwhile, more revelations come out from Wikileaks that Hillary Clinton was leaked some questions that were asked at the debates from the Primaries stages.
Quote:
Donna Brazile, the acting chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, resigned from her role as a CNN contributor earlier this month.
Her departure was announced Monday amid fresh revelations that she sent questions to Hillary Clinton's campaign in advance of a CNN debate and a CNN-TV One town hall.
Brazile resigned from the network on October 14, three days after Wikileaks released an email in which Brazile says she got advance questions before a town hall event. "From time to time I get the questions in advance," she wrote in the email.

Re: US Election 2016
My God and we thought the Brexit referendum was toxic! This whole thing has become a joke and in not very many days one of these people is going to be running the show over the pond.
Is this just the media creating/exaggerating news or something much more sinister at the heart of US politics?

America is becoming increasingly polarised and we have two of the most unlikable candidates for President in a long time. The news doesn't help though, it's very hysterical. Although I suspect the internet is more to blame for the current feeling as people retreat more and more into confirmation bias and bubbles.
Whole books and studies could probably be done on this. Anyone who claims they can explain it away easily is probably lying. I don't think it's too dissimilar to Brexit in some respects, the divide in society, but it's not as nasty here.

Re: US Election 2016
Whoever finally wins this is going to be the president of a very divided and angry nation and if clinton gets in and pursues any anti gun stance it could become a much more violent nation. In all my time having americans as friends there has never been the sense of anger and lack of faith in their country as there is now, i take the gun owner's with a pinch of salt as they have become increasingly defensive over the last 15-20 years. My friends from both political parties just cannot see either candidate as a good potential president and have little faith in either to do whats best for ordinary americans it's all very depressing.

Completely true. I feel like anyone could've ran against Clinton without even trying.. Trump on the other hand seems to say a lot of things to ensure he's not elected whilst apparently still trying to win.
Come on though. 'The Motherlode' not even the FBI know their head from their ass right now but Trump seems to be a step ahead
Silly statement.

Re: US Election 2016
SHOCK CLAIM: Clintons are a ‘CRIME FAMILY’ as bad as the GAMBINO MOB, ex-FBI chief says
HILLARY and Bill Clinton have sensationally been branded a "crime family" by a former assistant FBI director.

Re: US Election 2016
The former director, who is a Trump supporter, also criticised the handling of the FBI investigation into the presidential candidate's emails, claiming it was impeded by Attorney General Loretta Lynch – a Clinton ally.
also from my link.

Re: US Election 2016
To be fair Lynch was already up there for criticism with Comey anyway so its not really a shocker.
Clickbait headline.
