Actually, Congress has nothing to do with a nuclear strike. (It's amazing what you can find with a quick internet search.) Only a Trump appointed SECDEF would have to agree with Trump to launch a nuke (which is a terrifying proposition). Look, if I thought Trump was a better choice, I would vote for him. The following sentence is not hyperbole. A Trump presidency would be the single worst thing to ever happen for the future of America. Think about all of the middle class and poor working class getting f*u*cked over for decades, because that's what would happen.
"Journalist Ron Rosenbaum has pointed out that the operational plan for nuclear strike orders is entirely concerned with the identity of the commanding officer and the authenticity of the order, and there are no safeguards to verify that the person issuing the order is actually sane."

Unfortunately wikipedia is not a trusted source (not that I don't believe you). Hence why I wanted to ask you first before searching. I strongly disagree with the statement of Trump being the worst thing for America. The worst thing for America is to limit her democracy. Electing Hillary means that 5 out of 9 Justices will be Democrat (which is fine), but what isn't fine is that 4 of those justices will have been appointed by a president with the last name Clinton. Does that sound like democracy to you? The next generations will have no say in the laws that govern them because the supreme Court will be employees of the Clinton Foundation. Everyone can agree that she is a crooked individual. What do those types of people do when they have the potential to abuse power? That scares me far more than Trump misinterpreting a tweet.

I have no idea where to begin to dismantle your argument here. Just because the justices would have been appointed by someone with the last name Clinton, does not mean they are on the Clinton foundation's payroll. That is extremely rude and disrespectful to even entertain such a thought, not to mention a logical fallacy. It's true that some justices tend to be Liberal or Conservative but the best ones tend to be closer to the middle than any far extreme. You're spouting off the same BS that Trump wants you to spout out. Would it be better if Trump can choose the justices and then abortion rights are removed and Christianity is forced on the public? The Christian religion is made up BS based on the most brilliant propaganda ever conceived. Create a hodgepodge of Mythology like stories and then trick people into thinking it might be based in reality. Then scare those same people that if they don't believe they will be eternally punished. What a gigantic crock of crap. And crooked individual?? What politician out there isn't trying their darndest to get all their friends jobs and as much pork barrel as possible? Trump is no better, even though you think he may be as an "outsider." That argument is a ton of crap as well. Do some more research that isn't from Fox news, then get back to me. Until then, have a nice day.

I respected what you had to say until you bashed an entire religion simply because you don't follow it, then you talk about disrespect? You're crazy enough to think a man would nuke the world over a tweet, but too delusional to think Justices would rig the system for millions of dollars? Nice chat. Peace.

Rig what system how? You really just spew ignorance that Trump caters to. It's sad actually. And yes, I have a problem with any religion that brainwashes people into being delusional. Honestly, I don't care what people believe unless they're trying to force it on others. I may be an atheist, but I appreciate the freedom we have in America to choose and not be told what to believe or think. An all conservative Supreme Court would enact policies based on Christian beliefs and in practice they'd be effectively forcing their beliefs on other citizens and removing rights those citizens once had (based on fairy tale beliefs). That's what I have a problem with, but I was foolish to think I could convince a right-wing ultra conservative tard. At least I tried.

Not to mention you're pushing your atheist bullshit on me in the same way right now hahaha. Hypocrisy at its finest.

Edited by jlobue10: 10/4/2016 10:26:11 PMI could care less what you believe (but then I wouldn't care at all). I'm an atheist and don't care if you are or not, but I can poke holes in your religion all day and shake the foundation till your feeling uneasy about yourself. Seriously to each his or her own. I was pointing out that America is great due to our freedoms. An overly conservative Supreme court would potentially overturn many civil liberties that people enjoy and use, based on the collective justices' religious belief systems, which I have a serious problem with.

The only thing you have backing up your argument is that you hate Christianity? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA sad life isn't it
-
Edited by jlobue10: 10/4/2016 10:27:26 PMI have many more things backing my argument, and you haven't successfully refuted a single one. I'm patient. I'll wait. And it's not that I hate Christianity. If it makes you a good person, then great. But the argument that someone can't be a good, morally sound person without it, sickens me. Please spew some more logical fallacies. This is actually a fun exercise for me.

If I give you a million dollars to vote for Trump what would you call that?
-
A red herring argument since you're going off topic. Which candidate's foundation received a cease and desist notification due to alleged misappropriation of funds?? I'll wait while you look up the answer. It's okay to not like Hillary. Many Democrats don't necessarily like her, but she is a much smarter candidate to vote for. She actually has plans for economic growth and plans to help the middle class and poor. Trump has plans to screw those same people over, but I can see your mind is made up, so I really am just wasting my breath on you.
