To be fair, Trump doesn't know what he's going to do, either. He's woefully unprepared, overwhelmingly unqualified to run a country and laughably unfit to lead the west's biggest armed forces.

That is scary. I'm not ashamed to be scared of a Trump presidency. He's not fit to run my local coffee shop or school board.

This kind of thinking is scary.  You can't trust him, but you trust Hillary who has shown over and over that she will also only do what's in her best interests?  I don't understand this thinking at all.  Hillary lies as much or more than Trump.  She's all about her and her agenda.  Nothing has changed about her since Obama correctly identified her faults 8 years ago, but now she's so trustworthy to be President because you know the stupid shit she's going to do instead of not knowing?

The truth is Trump isn't going to do anything.  Pence will effectively be running the country.  Trump has no interest in anything but the title and the attention...he's not interested in the work. 

I'll still take Gary Johnson and his foreign policy concerns over either of them.  He'll have someone else handling that for him anyway.  That's how this works.  None of them do it all...they rely on their advisors.

The difference is that while Hillary lies with a clear purpose (to further her career, to get elected, to squash her competition, to eventually implement her psuedo-neoconservative policies), Trump lies about every fucking little thing that he thinks will further boost his already ginormous ego. He's just a fragile little egomaniac that is looking for affirmation from whoever wants to give it to him, and if that be semi-retarded small-minded racist rednecks, then that's where he'll go. The mind-numbing stupidity that he oozes out of every pore is just blindingly obvious to me... I mean Gary Johnson may be uneducated on certain topics, but he at least has the mental capacity to think through his actions. Trump is just plain old stupid. But worse than him being stupid is that his ego makes him a volatile motherfucker that you simply should not allow anywhere near a position of power. Combine the two, and it's clear that he is too dumb to understand the consequences of his own ego-driven actions...

Hillary might be a liar, but at least she's competent. Even if you don't agree with her policies, you must concede that she's fucking good at what she does.

FYI, Trump never said he would not accept the outcome.  Only that he would wait and see. This is Faux outrage.

He shouldn't even say that. All he needed to say was "unless there's a recount needed, i absolutely will accept the results of the election, as all presidents have done in this great nation's history."

Why didn't he say something like that? Because he's probably going to complain the election was rigged and there was widespread voter fraud (which is extraordinarily rare). He might challenge some results in court and generally act like he was entitled to win, setting himself up to be a constant presence on the national political scene so he can benefit in some way.

When the contracts were signed, the plan was to get the album out before the news broke. Something happened to make that not an option. I don't know if that something was all the speculation once it became known they were speaking or the money at coachella, but something changed the plans.

Whaaaat? The DJ/Bumble/Stinson album? Or a rerecorded one with Slash and Duff?
