If the federal government of the United States had been kept within the confines of the Constitution, which strictly limited its powers and states that any powers not specifically delegated to it were reserved to the individual States or to the People, .......
Then it wouldn't much matter who was elected to the office of President, now would it?
Hillary is equally awful too. Unfortunately, one of them is going to win. And, we all will lose.
Equally awful? Are you fucking stupid? Please don't talk if you have no idea of how bad crooked hilary is. If you did 1% of the crimes she committed you would be in jail for LIFE. So please again don't talk if you don't know what you are talking about and that goes for the rest of the brainwashed cunts in here.
The reason I upvoted @magnebit's post is because @stephencurry downvoted it, and I wanted to balance out the downvote in order to maintain a respectful debate and community in Steemit, and to provide a safe space so that every one feels like they can voice their opinion without being verbally (or voted-ly) attacked. And to @stephencurry I respect any political opinions you may have, and if you support Trump then that is great for you. However, please do not spread hate speech on Steemit. I believe violent speech is just as dangerous and harmful as violent action.
The only hate speech is the one you presented in this post which contains NO FACTS at all and should be deleted. All it is doing is brainwashing more people.
Trump Has Disqualified Himself-
Trump Has Indelibly Marked Himself as a Racist, as a Xenophobic Nativist Bigot
HATE SPEECH MOAR?
Thaddeus Russell, the greatest historian of our times who has been on the Joe Rogan Podcast many times, does not endorse Trump, but he concludes that Trump is a far safer and more rational choice than Hillary. As a nonwhite immigrant who grew up in the ghetto, I think Hillary is the real racist. Her policies have kept Blacks in prison since the 1990s after calling them "super predators". Trump is the asshole Buddha. He means well, but says it in a cheeky way for publicity, but overall he is much more socially liberal than Hillary.
Namaste,
Limitless
Trump is an idiot headless
Please understand Trump's message of universal love. I explained it in more detail here. https://steemit.com/politics/@limitless/how-peter-thiel-zen-meditation-and-the-dmt-psychedelic-experience-led-me-to-endorse-trump
Live long and prosper my friend,

STFU go make me some tacos. You are just another MAD ignorant mexican who hates his life and blames it on trump.

While I disagree with OP's hateful opinion. More hate is not the answer. We must spread Sage Trump's message of Universal Love.
In Harambe we trust my friend,

Well with brain dead fucking cunts like Bruce curtis, a spread of Trump's realistic message will not be comprehended by a brain dead fucking cunt like bruce curtis.
@stephencurry You seem salty in your defense about Trump, no where in this post have you spoke on donald's qualifications or any policy benefits for America other than he is reality. Telling someone to make tacos and calling someone a ignorant mexican is a classic trump supporter response especially when if you look at @luisucv34 the person is from venezuela.
I get that all of these labels are things that I, as an educated white male, am not supposed to like, and I don't particularly like them. I just don't get how that qualifies as disqualifying him. Doesn't seem like Mrs. Clinton is being disqualified for taking actions that would land any normal citizen in jail, and that actually should disqualify her. But being an A-hole bigot has never disqualified anyone before, in fact, it used to be a prerequisite. A better argument would be that Gary Johnson is being disqualified because he can't even get in the poles which would allow him to be in the debates, it's a strait media lock-down on him and it's shameful we've allowed the DNC and RNC dictate the terms of the election, especially when they both deliver such horrible products to the market, but even that is a stretch.
I think people need to learn how to check their hyperbole at the door, especially in political discussions.
People need to realize that the only truth is trump. End of discussion.
Well trolled sir!
If you think that's trolling, wait until you read my analysis on Trump:
https://steemit.com/politics/@limitless/how-peter-thiel-zen-meditation-and-the-dmt-psychedelic-experience-led-me-to-endorse-trump
and my analysis on Clinton: https://steemit.com/politics/@limitless/42-reasons-why-scott-adams-is-genius-for-endorsing-hillary-clinton
My sad experience is that people who use the term "racist" are usually those who are the racists. Those against whom they play "the race card" are usually completely unaware of race. It doesn't even enter into their thinking.
Stop voting.
@tuck-fheman have you read the book "Seeing" by Jose Saramago?
The most interesting political commentary/fictional books I have read on the subject of voting. Here is a summary:
All of these solid reasons why Trump should not be President can also serve as reasons why he probably will be President.
Good thing we have teams like @Steemit building future systems of consensus to replace the old ones. With any luck, the world will be so awash in tech-enabled abundance we'll forget to have the 2020 elections ;-)
In the meantime...
I don't get into political talk often but I love me some idocracy!
Seriously people just rant about shit that they hate but cant give any solid reasons or facts to back up why they hate. Just shows the person who you really are. Anti trumpers need to jump off a cliff.
Solid reasons? list them here for me
Idiocracy is already happening regardless of who becomes president, but if you want to avoid Idiocracy in your personal community, then you might want to read this post: https://steemit.com/politics/@limitless/42-reasons-why-scott-adams-is-genius-for-endorsing-hillary-clinton
Lol! So happy you guys introduced me to Steemit. Hope you two are loving New Zealand!
It feels like a bad reality show took over politics.
Well yeah, politics is a bad reality show.
True that! I can't believe people are even interested in politics (especially US-politics). Professional Show-Wrestling has more credibility...
The only reality show is the one your brain is in unfortunately. Donald trump IS REALITY. But like i said the only reality show is the one your brain is living in.
It is ridiculous. I wonder how different it would be if we had a different campaign system like in other countries. AKA time restrictions on when a presidential campaign can start and budget restrictions on how much they can spend on the campaign. Here is an interesting article: http://www.npr.org/sections/itsallpolitics/2015/10/21/450238156/canadas-11-week-campaign-reminds-us-that-american-elections-are-much-longer
Yeah @anwenbaumeister , but that's exactly Trump's magic. He doesn't need to pay much for ads or TV time, he just need to make a controversial comment about something outrageous and then free publicity in the entire planet. The joke about his candidacy took him to where he is now. Everybody has exploit the Trump topic for months and now everybody wonders why his image grew so fast.
Stop talking. You are just brainwashed unfortunately and it is swaying peoples opinions.
Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream
Merrily merrily merrily merrily life is but a dream
Curious why I bolded "life is but a dream"?
Then you might want to read about how a powerful psychedelic trip made me conclude that Trump is a manifestation of universal love: https://steemit.com/politics/@limitless/how-peter-thiel-zen-meditation-and-the-dmt-psychedelic-experience-led-me-to-endorse-trump
Well, everybody is talking about the guy.
https://steemit.com/writing/@albertogm/donald-trump-vs-hugo-chavez-same-but-in-other-suit
Thanks for the shout.
@albertogm, Wonderful post! Thanks for sharing a different point of view on Trump. @deboas...true, I just haven't seen many posts or debates about politics on Steemit! Thanks for pointing me to a great one though :-)
Thanks @anwenbaumeister I like to write about politics and social issues too. Hoping to read more.
You shouldn't be writing about politcis if you are comparing trump to chavez lol. Any scholar would laugh at you endlessly for this.
I believe that Trump is a manifestation of universal love prophesized by Buddhist, Taoist, and Hindu sages ages ago. I explained it in more detail here. https://steemit.com/politics/@limitless/how-peter-thiel-zen-meditation-and-the-dmt-psychedelic-experience-led-me-to-endorse-trump
Namaste,
Limitless
He's more like the demon Ravana, 10 different heads, 10 different viewpoints on the same issue
Why would you link this lol? He is comparing donald trump to hugo chavez. Lol you must really be an idiot to compare donald trump to hugo chavez.
Sorry but this idiot is just brainwashed. Trump is not a racist. Show me just one quote where he is racist, which you probably will never be able to find. Donald trump is a compassionate man who cares for the average american and at the end of the day that is what really matters as being president. People are just blind to see it unfortunately.
Hi friend, I'm glad that you have seen the message of universal love spread by our new Buddha Trump. But there is no need to bring yourself down to their hateful level. Live life as the Buddha would have. And I think you will enjoy many of my posts about the virtues of our dear wise leader.

To combat the racism and hate from the Left, we must not go down to their level. We must live with love in our hearts without expressing anger in fear. Steemit is on a blockchain, so your voice will not be censored. Over time, free speech will prevail.
Namaste,
Limitless
I'll try my best. But you can't get through to these brainless people, who have been desensitized by their own government over the years, without being aggressive.
Really guys, wake up! All politicians are liars! It's all a fraud anyway. That having been said, I disagree with the latest statement about Trump wanting to suppress free speech. The greatest suppressor of free speech is the phenomenon of "political correctness" and how much he's opposed to that is well-known.
Well, Trump is not the holy grail but the other option is 1000 times worse. Hillary Clinton will lead us to world war 3. I prefer a racist that doesn't want to go to war with Russia and China, anytime over a supposed nonracist that can't wait to start a nuclear war. I am living in Europe but I am very concerned with the US elections. Hillary Clinton is one of the most scary persons that is currently walking on this planet.
I agree that Trump has been open about his stance on Mexicans, Muslims and women. But to say that he is not qualified, what qualifications do you need? He has ran successful businesses and America seems like nothing more than giant US corporation (citizens united) looking out for its stakeholders.
If this were a sane society Hillary and Trump would both be disqualified.
If it's a sane society, Hillary would be in prison and Trump wouldn't be disqualified, but he would not have been the nominee.
I don't think you should be surprised that you got strong reactions. Think people either love or hate him and nothing in between. https://steemit.com/politics/@iamwne/whip-me-beat-me-call-me-names-trumpyourself-new-fad
It's choice between bad and worse, choice between ruthless, power hungry person willing to do anything to win and unpredictable clown pretending to be prosperous entrepreneur...
Time will tell,hard to be good for all.
Thank you.
Don't forget a homophobe!
The most fabulous homosexuals in the world endorsed Trump. This includes genius investor and Paypal Founder Peter Thiel and comedian/journalist Milo Yiannopoulos. I discuss why Trump is the most socially liberal candidate here: https://steemit.com/politics/@limitless/how-peter-thiel-zen-meditation-and-the-dmt-psychedelic-experience-led-me-to-endorse-trump

fourth time I've upvoted this - on original post, both comments here, and the original comment elsewhere I found it.
actually even quoted your perspective from the Quora piece below, before seeing you'd commented on this story.
REALLY love the perspective you've brought to the table. :-)
Haha thanks! I've another few pieces coming soon. One comparing Trump to Steve Jobs. Another where Nassim Taleb liked my explanation on why Tim Kaine is a pseudo intellectual
As a matter of fact, Peter thiel was speaking at the national republican convention tonight and endorsed trump and openly admitted to being proudly gay. So what do you anti trumpers have to say now?
I meant in a more anti-LGBTQ kind of way
I'm still trying to figure out if Donald Trump is just doing this whole thing as a publicity stunt, and at one of the debates he will say to the american people, I can't believe you morons actually voted for me! HAHA
Bottom line... his supporters are really loud, but not the majority, for better or worse.
Sometimes they are loud, but sometimes they are just tripping balls. #hippiesfortrump #meditatorsfortrump

Trump will not be stump.
#wall
He might be a racist & even a sociopath but i know one thing for sure , Hilary clinton ain't better.
I agree. I feel Trump should never be elected President, I was for Bernie, don' t really like Hillary, so where does that leave me?
I like Gary Johnson somewhat (Libertarian), but don't exactly agree with all his policies either (I consider my self a 'social libertarian', which is only part of what Johnson believes in).
So it's a tough vote for someone like me, now that Bernie's gone :-)
I have no idea why you got downvoted. I guess some people don't like it when others have a different opinion than theirs.
Must be a lot of Trump supporters on here.Too bad, cause I doubt he'll ever see the Oval Office :-)
