Trump Started Strong

     Initially it appeared that whatever little preparation Donald Trump did with his campaign staff was working, like he was reading from a teleprompter. He addressed trade and her never-ending e-mail problems. He definitely scored when he said that Hillary called TPP "the gold standard" before she was against it. PolitiFact live-fact-checking found her saying those exact words in an address over seas. He later kind of wasted his attack on her e-mails when he was answering the question from Lester Holt on why he wouldn't release his tax returns. First he said he would release his taxes after the audit is over (even though the IRS has put a statement out saying there is no reason he can't release his taxes because of the audit) and then immediately said "I've been under audit for the last 15 years" and then a moment later changed to "I'll release my taxes when Hillary releases the 33,000 deleted e-mails."

Then Trump Became Trump

     Then, drinking a lot of water, sneering, interrupting, and not being able to stand still like a kindergarten child having to go to the bathroom, it became evident that he was uncomfortable and starting to lose his composure. Once their he put the fact checkers into overdrive as his lies multiplied, and he repeated things that everyone who doesn't live completely off-the-grid now know to be absolutely false, lies. For five years after President Obama produced his long form birth certificate Donald Trump continued using the birther ridiculousness to rile up his based because let's face it, it was the birther show and the "build a wall" promise that has been his core stance since day one of his candidacy and he was still using his birther lie as late as last week. Continuing to lie about being "opposed to the Iraq war long before it started" and "strongly opposed" to it also went over like a led balloon because anyone with any kind of instrument/device that allows you to hear, or see, heard him on Howard Stern say he guesses so as to whether we should invade Iraq. Drinking more water, making faces, fidgeting, and starting to interrupt with constant "wrong," "no," "I didn't say that," and making faces, signaled that he had arrived, in his parallel universe and would no longer be able to look , or sound, presidential. 

Hillary Was Prepared

It's the American people who lose when during a debate like this the candidates don't lay out explicit plans they have to solve our problems and it was Hillary Clinton who won as far as having, and expressing, actual plans. Trump again said "you have no plan" about childcare, and again, she has had a thorough plan posted for an eternity. When she said "go to hillaryclinton.com to read it" he interjected "I do too, go to my website," he doesn't have any well thought out plans that actually have a chance of working. Like his economic plan that give the richest in the country big tax breaks, that experts say will increase the deficit from $20T to $25T and lose another 3.5 million jobs. You know, like the unpaid tax breaks to the rich that George W. Bush took over $800M from Social Security for and in addition exploded the deficit. Trump supporters aren't going anywhere because as their candidate said, he could walk down 5th Avenue and shoot someone and he wouldn't lose a single supporter. I get it, I understand, why people are angry, I'm angry, angry that all of the wealth and income is going to the top 1/10th of 1%, I'm angry that we have a Congress that obstructs everything for their own political gain, and greed, that we have infrastructure that is past deficient and we could be putting a lot of people into good paying jobs to start to rebuild that infrastructure. But Trump saying that he will fix it all doesn't mean he has any idea whatsoever that he knows how he would fix even the smallest problems. When asked about how he would deal with violence, race, and police and community relations, his answer is to implement "Stop & Frisk." Really?! Stop and Frisk in NYC had 9 million minorities stopped and frisked and only .2% of those stopped were found to be arrest-able. It was unconstitutional. And rightfully so. That is his great plan for how to change the poor relations between police and the community? 

We Need Change

We need change, we need to stop the oligarchy, we need to get money out of politics and overturn Citizen's United with a constitutional amendment. We need to start putting CEO's in real prisons, for appropriate sentences. Look at the latest where Wells Fargo CEO enticed and showed over 12,000 employees how to steal money from their own customers accounts to open accounts that they never wanted or even knew bout. The stock went up because the CEO got his directive and each customer ended up with numerous accounts, his stock options increased in value by $200M because of the fraud, and he is going to be allowed to just walk away with the bank's customers money. Oh, and don't forget, he fired 5,300 of their employees to say he took care of "the problem." We need to fire all the Tea Party Republicans, Republicans and Democrats that follow the lobbyists requests for their own benefit, and all of the obstructionists that are refusing to do their jobs that we are paying them for. Not allowing President Obama's nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court to get an up/down vote, or even as much as a hearing is preposterous, and willful neglect for the job they swore they would perform and for the American people who voted them in.Let's get out and vote on November 8, 2016 and fire the establishment, give the next President a House and Senate that will work with the President, and get American going in the right direction at breakneck speed.

Ann Coulter Flaunts Her Ignorance Again - RE: The Comedy Central Roast

Ann Coulter Appears As Guest On Roast of Rob Lowe - BIG Mistake!

John A. Smith Editor/Founder, September 10, 2016

The Price of Shamelessly Promoting Your Book; Ann Coulter

     Way too high if you look at Ann Coulter's guest appearance on The Comedy Central Roast of Rob Lowe. This past Monday, September 5, 2016, the roast of Rob Lowe aired but you would think it was a roast of Ann Coulter. She is an American conservative social and political commentator, writer, syndicated columnist, and lawyer. She frequently appears on television, radio, and as a speaker at public and private events. This appearance on the roast is one she is going to regret for some time. Shortly after coming up to the lectern she propped up her book and received a very cool reception. She was booed when the crowd wasn't silent. Before she had a turn to unsuccessfully try to win over the attendees there were of course other guests who took their shot at her.

All the Ann Coulter Knocks At Comedy Central's Roast of Rob Lowe -  The Shots Are Fired At Ann Coulter - She Asked For It

  David Spade hosted the event even though Roast Master Jeff Ross was present and dressed as Prince in tribute to the late artist, and the set was adorned with purple as well. David Spade fired the first shot when he was about to bring up the first guest Pete Davidson (SNL/NBC) after saying that "Pete's dad never got to see him on Saturday Night Live because he died on 9/11, and his mother never got to see him on SNL because she blinks." (pa dom tom) and then it came "is Pete white or is he black? Ann Coulter needs to know so she can decide if she hates him" 

     Here are more embarrassing (well, to a normal person would be embarrassing) things said to, and at, Ann Coulter:



Pete Davidson: "and Ann Coulter is here, hey, if Ann Coulter is here who's scaring the crows away from our crops?" "ya know Ann describes herself as a polemicist (Devil's Advocate) but most people call her a cunt!" "ya know last year we had Martha Stewart who sells sheets, this year we have Ann Coulter who cuts eye holes into them."

Rob Reagle:  "Holy Shit! Is that Ann Coulter? Ann Coulter is here, which could mean only one thing, someone must of said her name 3 times, Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!" and later said "Fun fact, Ann Coulter has a big angry bush, no joke, that's just a fun fact." "Rob's played many wonderful roles in film, recently he played JFK in "Killing Kennedy" Jesus Christ hasn't that family suffered enough? Grassy knoll! But not as grassy as Ann Coulter's BIG ANGRY BUSH! INSTANT CALL BACK!" "Rob played a guy on Parks and Rec [sic] where he misused the word literally, correct use of the word would be...I don't know, Rob Lowe has literally had sex with everyone in this room, except Ann Coulter because her bush is literally too ANGRY! YES! THREE-PEAT! They said I couldn't do it! But I did it! I nailed Ann Coulter's bush 3 times!

Jules: Wasted no time as she said "it's an honor to be here, I do want to say first off as a feminist I can't support everything being said up here tonight but as someone who hates Ann Coulter I'm delighted." "Jeff Ross is here, he's going to party like it's 1999, Ann Coulter is going to vote like it's 1899." "Ann you do look great though, your almost as thin as Donald Trump's chance of winning the election." "Actually it's a small world though because last week I was behind Ann at Chipotle and she ordered something to go, the entire kitchen staff was like here, leave....the country!" "What's weird is that gay men love Ann Coulter, it's because after 2 seconds of hearing her speak, they remember why they hate pussy." 



Jimmy Carr: "Ann Coulter, here we go, Ann Coulter is one of the most repugnant, hateful, hatchet-faced bitches alive, but, but, it's not to late to change Ann, you can kill yourself." "Ann Coulter looks so much like a truck stop transvestite whore that I saw Jeff Ross run to an ATM  just before the show." "Ann Coulter's pussy, (he looks over at Ann, outreaches his arm showing her his palm and says seriously, this gets classy) Ann Coulter's pussy is so old and dry that it's just got a job drawing cartoons for The New Yorker." (he finishes with her by making a motion as to tipping his hat to her).

Peyton Manning: "WOW! I just realized I was not the only athlete up here tonight, as you all know, earlier this year Ann Coulter won the Kentucky Derby. Congrats on that Ann."

Nikki Glaser: "And without Fuhrer[sic] ado, Ann Coulter, oh Ann, what's it like to be a real-life Super Villain? Ya know, like I would ask you how you sleep at night but I assume you hang upside down in a robe of 101 dalmatians. Ann Coulter has written 11 books, 12 if you count Mein Kampf. Ann's been called things like a racist, anti-Semitic, homophobic, a white supremacist, and that's just while getting plowed by Bill Maher. The only person you will ever make happy is the Mexican who digs your grave." After telling some other jokes, one about Jeff Ross saying he and Hitler had a lot in common, in that no one cared about them until they started roasting people.As the crowd moaned Nikki said "Guys, I can make that joke because I'm not Jewish, so I don't care, don't be mad, at least I acknowledge the Holocaust, Ann doesn't even think it happened." 


Ralph Macchio: "Ann Coulter, I glad to see you here, ya know, I respect you, your the one female commentator to stand to take a leak."

     And then it happened, Ann Coulter came to the lectern with this introduction from David Spade: "O.K. guys, and now a real treat for fans of hate watching, Ann Coulter's coming up, Ann hopes the Republicans can hold on to the House, so she can continue to haunt it. She seems stiff and conservative but Ann gets wild in the sheets, just ask the Klan. It looks like shes having a good time, she hasn't laughed this hard since Trevon Martin got shot. Please welcome Ann Coulter."

     She approached under courteous applause and started with "Thank you everyone I want to welcome you to the Ann Coulter roast with Rob Lowe." Then she went right to shes glad to be here with Rob Lowe and all the wonderful talents and it has "nothing to do with being the next stop on my press junket for the book I just published four days ago In Trump We Trust"and that is where the crowd got ugly, booing loudly. "E Pluribus Awesome" she said and the crowd started getting angrier and louder. "Pause for Boos, oh wait I wasn't supposed to read that" was her attempt at comedy. Then she placed the book on the lectern and said "available in book stores...I know it's shameless but I'm on stage with a guy who made two Joe Dirt films so how shameless can I be" and that's enough of her. At that point she kept trying to be funny but drew NO LAUGHS and the camera kept going to the audience and showing faces in blank stares spewing hate for her.

     Roast Master Jeff Ross followed Coulter and ran a bunch of good one-liners and then "it's great to be here at the Comedy Central Roast of White Privilege. I know what your thinking, how come there's no black people up here, well, we actually booked two but there not here yet." At which point the camera went to African-Americans in the audience giving Jeff the finger. And that's he focused on Ann.

Jeff Ross:  "Ann, what happened, you wrote 11 books but you couldn't write a single fucking joke?" "Ann, you have a face that would make doves cry." "This is hard, how do I roast somebody from hell?" "BITCH!" "Ugh, and that voice (he makes sounds like babbling) it's like fingernails on a chalkboard of an inner-city school you want to defund." "Don't stare at me with that roasting bitch face." "Ann's against gay marriage, what's your thinking on that? If I can't get a husband they shouldn't either?"

      And then it was Rob Lowe's turn. He was returning the roasting back to those who gave it to him and then it came: 

www.ew.com

Rob Lowe: "It's 56 days to Halloween but I see that Ann Coulter's [sic] already in her skeleton costume. People ask, why is Ann Coulter here tonight? Answer? Because the Right-to-Lifers wanted everybody to see what an abortion looks like up close. And you know Ann, after seeing your set tonight I think we've all witnessed the first bombing you can't blame on a Muslim. 

     And there you have it. All the jokes about and to Ann Coulter from the Comedy Central Roast of Rob Lowe. Hope you enjoyed it.
