Free Thinkers Of The World: Before the election and all hell breaks loose... let us pause and review!

Hello, and Welcome to Free Thinkers of the World Blog.

It has surely been a grueling campaign year and it isn't over yet!

Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have finished three debates during which they discussed issues of all kinds. But, they also spent time jabbing at each other's life choices and career achievements or lack there of. Trump faced the harsh reality that he couldn't hide his failure to pay taxes for quite possibly decades, especially considering his refusal to show his tax returns claiming they were under audit and that his lawyers advised him not to offer them until it was over. Also a now famous tape of him having a very unsavory conversation with "Hollywood Access" host Billy Bush who has since been fired from the show after years of employment. And then 9 women coming forward with claims of sexual assault after he denied ever doing the things he mentioned in the tape. I'm not going to repeat them. We've heard enough. After all these missteps and many more, Trump went on to state that he may not accept the results of the election if Hillary wins. This sparked controversy for both Republicans and Democrats and has been the story of the hour. "I'll keep you in suspense" was his final word on the debate stage on that subject.

Hillary has had a lot of success in rallying minorities and women with college degrees. She has been keeping her speeches optimistic with the exception of her view of a Trump-run America. People have been more attracted to the light she shows of our country rather than the starkly contrasting darkness that Donald Trump has cast. There is no doubt that his supporters have felt that same darkness but Hillary's tactic is to promote being thankful that our country had all the great things it has because many and most places in the world can not compare. She has seen poverty stricken families in other countries who have no snap benefit program and feed their families old bread while they sit on a dirt floor. As someone who has traveled and seen those types of places, I can be sure that America truly is a great country and not to be undervalued. Trump paints a horrible picture of our military army suggesting that we have bad military tactics because we don't "sneak attack". Hillary grinned at this as she knows and has information and experiences with numerous covert missions that have been played out. One of the largest covert operations was the capture of Osama Bin Laden. This was a victory she shared in and watched live as it went down sitting beside Barack Obama.

Hillary has been hit with questions of her husband's questionable past concerning women, and accused of threatening those who spoke out against him. He went after her about the E-Mails, touched on Benghazi, and claimed she had spent 30 years working out these problems and had done nothing at all. She was able to circumvent the claim by comparing her 30 years of public service to Trump's 30 spent as a business man. She hit him for his business losses again as well. Hillary was particularly tough in the third debate. She held nothing back and gave Trump a taste of his own medicine firing shot after shot which seemed to back him into a corner pretty hard. He missed many opportunities to fire back as she threw him off his guard. He called her a "nasty woman"

for bringing up that he may not pay future workers in industries she intends to build up. Of course, he was mad because it was true that he did so in the past. He has a real problem, it seems, with dealing with his own truths and mistakes.

Hillary has dodged her share of bullets. She has made mistakes and has spoken about her regret. But Trump thinks he would make a better decision than her when faced with risking lives. He has no experience in this at all, and seems not to understand how accountability works when you see a number on a paper of how many soldiers died that day.

In the video above, Joe Biden was ace when he pulled out this paper and exclaimed his pain at seeing this number every day. How these men and women die fighting for our right to freedom. Trump belittled POW's saying how he "preferred soldiers who weren't captured" as if it was some fault of our officers for being captured, tortured and in many cases, killed!

And he goes on to mock a physically disabled reporter Serge Kovaleski.

But when we see disgusting displays of disrespect for even those with disabilities, for POW's, Mexicans, Muslims, women and more... We say this!

Thanks for this statement, Michelle, you are right on!

There has to be some sense deep in the hearts of his supporters that recoils when they hear his disregard. Trump has even gone so far as to state that Officer Humayun Khan, a Muslim military officer who was killed in Iraq, would still be alive if he had been president! This disregard for life and death and even for God, as many believe death is God's decision and not chance alone; It shows that he is so shallow as to not consider what saying something like that to that officer's parents, would do to them. He is a serious narcissist. I think he may even be a sociopath. I've seen him in cases where he should have shown some kind of emotion other than anger but it seemed empty.

It is a fact that sociopaths have been some of the most successful people. They are so because they have nothing to stop them from bulldozing over others to get what they want. They sacrifice others and subjugate and keep them below him in his mind. When he refused to pay workers for their work and materials, he proved he thinks they are lesser than him and that he can just pull out on them without fear of retribution. I suggest those people vote against him and show him just how he won't get away with it. People know the truth.

Huffington Post article describing Donald Trump's mental state as a potential Sociopath!

Trump has shown something else that disturbs me greatly. His daughter Ivanka is the apple of his eye, it seems and every other one of her siblings knows it. He almost ignores his other daughter, Tiffany. The Trump business doesn't include her and he hasn't seemed to do a lot for her. Is it because she is less attractive in his eyes, than Ivanka? We have to wonder, is there something inappropriate concerning how he looks at her? Let's review. In interviews with Howard Stern, comments about how she is a "piece of ass" were all but agreed on by her own father. He promotes her beauty all the time. He is seen in photos with her as a teen sitting on his lap next to a statue of two birds copulating. A little disgusting? She is always in short skirts or dresses in photos with him that were shot as promotional. He is heard saying " If she weren't my daughter, I'd be dating her." And Ivanka's face was clearly annoyed and repelled by the comment. The interviewer said "that's so weird" and Ivanka nodded in agreement! When asked in another interview, what they have most in common, he said " I was gonna say "sex" but I can't compete with her" or at least that is what it sounds like he said. It follows a pattern of sexist talk and inappropriate behavior toward women so much, because she is his own daughter.

Video evidence of Trump's inappropriate conduct toward his daughter and women in general!

At any rate, I think you know where I stand in the elections. I think the evidence of the right choice is obvious. I think we don't need a revolution to fix this country. We need a government that serves us, and we need to get off our butts and start working harder than ever to pick our country up! And that is what Hillary embodies in her campaign. Making the wealthy pay their fair share, including crafty Trump, making corporations do more for the country and not just operating in the name of capitalism would help a LOT! And Hillary didn't say she will not make middle class pay, but she did say she will not raise taxes from where they are, so with everyone fairly contributing on every level, this money can be routed into infrastructure, education, small business loans, and the return of manufacturing to our country. Trump will save himself 400 BILLION, that's 400 BILLION DOLLARS if he gets in. Have you ever seen even a MILLION dollars in your life? Let alone 400 BILLION!!! That is what he is in the race for! He owes, he wants more, he guarantees himself the power to create all the loopholes he wants in government to benefit himself and his kids alone after he is done. That is the simple fact of it, folks!
