All other issues will be irrelevant when the sea level rises 10 feet.

He can make decisive and difficult RHETORIC. But at this point it's obvious to everyone willing to look he's nothing but an empty suit.

(23,272 posts)I have however looked at Hillary Clinton's and her support for fracking alone is terrible.
Add on her statements for continued war in the ME (extremely toxic to the environment), her support for the TPP (just needs some tweaking!) which will reward the worst polluters, and her support for coal, nuclear and big oil and we can answer definitively that our future environmental is inevitable under her.

(20,176 posts)Given, it's a reality that I'd rather have pneumonia than plague.
Only to a Clinton supporter would that make pneumonia a good thing.
Trump's the Black Death regardless.

(29,192 posts)There is no level at which a Clinton presidency is good for the country (though it would be exceedingly beneficial to the Clintons), except in the sense of "not so bad as the alternative."
For the first time in my life, I will not even smile if the dem wins in Novemeber if it's her.
