A Hypothetical questions that none of us can give a correct answer to.

Let say that some high court or whatever it could be gave the Americans a second chance to pick a President for the next 4 or 8 years, and the candidate they had to choose from was:

1. Trump
2. Clinton
3. A third candidate

Would Trump win this second chance election ?

I got this A Hypothetical questions late yesterday evening after had read some of the post, what if the Americans got a second chance to pick their next President, would Trump have good chance to win again or...?

Since Trump is having a campaign rally in Florida today, I suppose we tax payers have to pay for his trip down there? He always bitched about Obama playing golf all the time and that we had to pay for him to go on all these vacations, now he goes to Florida every weekend costing a few million dollars each time, let alone the $60K day the Sheriffs dept pays in over time when he is there!

Wonder how much it costs NYC to protect his offices all the time? Plus believe the Govt will be renting an office in Trump Tower for security reasons, so Trump makes more money off of us!

Trump is in so many ways the perfect modern American. It's always somebody else's fault.

Apparently at the campaign he asked some random guy from the audience to come up on the stage to speak and told the Secret Service to stand down when they went to stop him.

I think this is going to be the Secret Service by the end of the year at the current rate:

This question is so far out from reality that it is hard to even come up with a hypothetical answer. One would have to assume that if this could ever come up, that there would be a reason why Trump could not be president (otherwise why the redo?) In that case, Trump could not even be an option.

Oh please, if there's a side that behaves in this manner it has to be the Obama and Clinton camps. I'm pretty sure the Trump camp would gladly let every snowflake that wants to secede do it, and take an illegal or two with you when you do. It's the other camp that must impose their will because they can't survive without working class rubes like me paying more than my fair share of taxes. P.S. I'm not really happy paying as much as the next eight countries combined on our military either. Maybe making NATO pay up is the first step toward fixing that BS.

Damn straight, the lügenpresse of the Clinton and Obama camp would never have told the world about the terrible terrorist attack in Sweden last night at Gräsplan för Bowl, thank goodness we have the dear Donald to show us the true news amid all the falsifications.

What I find so mind boggling is how easy it is to refute the nonsense Trump and his cohorts are spewing. I mean they can't be seriously thinking they can get away with inventing terror attacks without anyone noticing.
So why are they completely destroying their (not so great to begin with) credibility by doing it?

I mean who is still supposed to take the guy serious? He made himself laughing stock of the world....again.

It's not for us, it's for his devout followers who will just point to the refutations as evidence of the lying press, and then bring up something that Obama or Clinton did that is 'just as bad' and so on and so forth.

It could well have been a plant, but if it was then the Secret Service had no idea about it, or they're good actors. Apparently he was on the news before the rally praising Trump, so who can say?
