    Hillary is very popular, so, there would not be any need for such a service.

    Trump has been proven to employ his crowds

    She hasn't had a crowd over 50 since 2008.

    That whole BLM used rented crowds in the Dallas area and in St. Louis.

    The St. Louis rent-a-mob got angry when several months went by before they were paid. It made headlines.

    LOL

    Trump has bigger rallies than all the candidates on both sides combined, except for Bernie Sanders.

    I doubt she rents a crowd but it touches on something I have stated before: I think the reason her campaign has limping out of the gate was because she announced by youtube on a weekend instead of live in front of an enthusiastic crowd of supporters. Made it feel like she didn't even care enough to show up to her own announcement.

    Hillary is not going to be the Nominee. No way it happens.

    Biden is getting ready.

    so many questions about hillary's health now. I think she will be pulling out if she looses in SC.

    Bernie is going to take Nevada.

    Why should she withdraw when she is winning the delegate count?

    because she is going to loose badly in a general. if she ends up the nominee ( I hope she does), I think Trump will get more democratic votes than Hillary. All she has is super delegates and extreme radicals that are pro corruption. She is like a fungus in the democratic party right now.

    He is incredible? How's that?

    Trump did rent the crowd the day he announced. That is very well documented and widely reported.

    In fact, the OP is recycling a nine month old story, which arose from the fact that Trump rented his crowd.

    Just keep thinking that.

    It's about as likely to happen as the tea pary amounting to something.

    Just the last gasp of the angry white man.

    I truly did not know that. :)
    From what I read it was at his announcement June 16 ... his spokesman denies it though.

    However, the email from that company is clear about having few cheering actors at the announcement.

    To be fair however, I did not see any of them on the camera.

    But you would agree that tremendous crowds Trump draws are genuine.

    Interesting link.
    Thanks for that.

    You gotta be kidding?

    I've posted dozens of tweets and pix showing just how puny her turn outs are!

    Even Salon says Hillary cannot win. Only Bernie has any hope of beating the GOP. :D

    "Please name the last person to win the presidency alongside an ongoing FBI investigation, negative favorability ratings, questions about character linked to continual flip-flops, a dubious money trail of donors, and the genuine contempt of the rival political party. In reality, Clinton is a liability to Democrats, and certainly not the person capable of ensuring liberal Supreme Court nominees and President Obama’s legacy."

    honestly i am fine with that. As long as the election is legit I am cool with trump running against a full blown socialist with communist leanings. Neither are dishonest or establishment bought and paid for candidates. Lets have the election and let the populace decide if we are going to go down the path full blown government control or a more free market open competition. i think a big difference for me other than the ideology is trump has the drive to and ability to make happen.

    but lets do it. Trump vs Sanders. Fair and square election. No lying about the candidates. I am the first to say trump on the surface can be a real jerk. as long as he is on the side of the american populace it works in all our favor. sanders IMO is an angry and dangerous man trying to sell something that is completely unworkable or implementable but I am willing to accept his supporters making him the Nominee.

    The best thing sanders has done for this country is lift the veil on what the Democratic party really is. They ARE the Socialist Party and a great many are fans of straight up communism ( which is what socialism turns into once it fails). For that I actually respect Sanders. I dont like him but I will give him respect for standing for what he believes in and not being afraid to stand by it. In this way he and trump are very similar.

    Just curious.... what is your opinion on Ron Paul?

    Except Trump doesn't believe most of the (*)(*)(*)(*) he is peddling. He is just telling crowds what he thinks they want to hear. Not that I will be voting for Bernie...
