Its his personal expenditures, stuff he has spent money on while in office. Its been going on for a long time, I would expect to see it come up in the next debate.

Calling an entire nation rapists and drug traffickers sure does.
Seriously can you read? He clearly said nothing like that and for months has more than clarified for the intentionally dense.
It's just dishonest of you at this point.

Funny that same line of logic doesn't apply to the statements about Benghazi.

Ultimately, the best way to deal with a prejudice is to change the mindset of the hateful person. If calling them out brings them awareness like "oh, I didn't realize I was being racist, I should think harder about what I'm doing", then no.

Clarified? If by asking "Who is doing the raping" is clarification then ok! Its a waste of time to talk about Trump, but his comments about Mexican immigrants were stupid, dishonest, and full of hate. Similar to his tweet about Jeb Bush yesterday. All they accomplished was driving voters away from him and towards his opposition.

Nice deflection. She hasn't even mentioned them. But the republicans have, and will do so again in a few days at the debate.

Do you really think Hillary wouldn't sic her dogs on that fake scandal? I realize she hasn't yet (to our obvious knowledge), but do you really hold her that high?

Having modest debt while raising a family is just one more thing that will help regular people relate to Marco Rubio.

I think you are just trying to deflect. I expect everything to be attacked once the nominees are decided, but this is a republican led effort to smear Rubio and you are just trying to run damage control and as usual, its failing.

Yes, because calling people racists, bigots, etc. is the best way to spread awareness. You know, like kindly putting gasoline on a campfire to encourage it to go out.

Make as much money as Rubio = what's wrong with you, you shouldn't be pres.
I guess the only acceptable way to get rich is to sell political favors to foreign governments under the guise of having your ex president husband give $500k speeches.

I'm not sure it'd matter. I doubt labeling large groups of people with hateful rhetoric is ever the most effective method of changing their ways. Probably more counterproductive than anything.

Debate lineup announced
Main stage - Trump, Carson, Rubio, Bush, Cruz, Fiorina, Kasich, Paul.
Undercard - Christie, Huckabee, Jindal, Santorum.
Undercard is a waste of time, put Christie back on the main stage and lose the other 3 completely.

Generally speaking, I agree that it can generate some form of backlash, which was why I wanted Aman to respond with who these large groups were specifically. Also, I want to make sure we are keeping a distinction between the reaction from the person subjected, and the reaction from everyone else who hears it.

So, about that new Vatican scandal...about 500k €(most of it meant to be for charity) spent in only 6 months on apartments, cars and first class flights. Such honest people.

So I'm getting reports you guys aren't attacking the content and are attacking each other instead.
Honestly I'm tired of the P&R section causing problems and I'm more then willing to start handing out topic bans and more for those who continue to contribute to the toxic hell hole this becomes.
Consider this the warning, from here on out I'm not giving you warnings on your accounts (from P&R infractions) I will skip straight to topic bans and suspensions.

It's all my fault....
every time they tried to pass a school levy to raise taxes to pay for the schools I voted against it...
at first they just cut dumb stuff like art and music...
but now we apparently don't even teach civics any more.... or english.... or science... or reading comprehension...
don't even get me started on math..
so I must take some responsibility....at least for the american kids over there that don't know how to use their words...or work/play well with others.

The racist media trying to keep people in their place.
[+]
Random Politics & Religion is for topics that aren't thread worthy on their own and do not have their own existing thread.
Rules and Guidelines
Forum Rules and P&R Section Guidelines still apply.
Satire is tolerated.
If your topic covers a story over 6 months old (Watergate, Benghazi, 2012 Election, etc.) post it here.
Discussions on racism, homophobia, transphobia, and the like are allowed, targeted insults based on these will not be tolerated.
Political debates get heated and are meant to be intense, if you take offense to being called or proven wrong, you don't belong here.
If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen; if you prove you can't handle the criticism you bring upon yourself in this thread, you may be removed from it. You are responsible for what you post.
Along those lines, heat is fine, but sustained, clearly personal hostility is not okay. The personal attack rules still apply. Attack positions, not posters. Failure to adhere to this will result in your removal from the thread.
This thread is NOT the Flame Core.
These rules are subject to change and modification where and when needed.
Random Politics & Religion may be mained or demained depending on the activity within at a Moderator's discretion.
With that out of the way, let the debates begin!
