The more and more I look into how many corporations and people are so deep into Hillary's pockets, the more I hear about Trump supporters blab on about armed insurrection if Hillary wins, the closer I realize the world is closest to nuclear anhilation since the Cuban Missile Crisis. I don't think all of us will even live to see 2020.

I think you're overreacting a bit.

It's the second cold war, friend. Tensions with Russia are at the highest they've been since the first cold war, Russia is crumbling from within, and we're fighting proxy wars. Only difference is that we're fighting proxy wars in the middle east instead of Asia, and our next president won't be as good a speaker as Reagan

We will all just die in a fiery, matter-of-seconds, messy atomic blast anyways.

Every great superpower and empire has either died or greatly downsized; America's time will probably come sooner or later we have been slowly losing our superpower status for years now. I just hope the whole nation doesn't fuck itself in my lifetime.

Eh, the question is how much will either side actually get to do if they were elected?

Due to republicans controlling every part of congress Hillary will have a hard time getting anything passed that isn't obvious. (A pay raise for all congress members, something they accept if even I suggested it)
Trump has the problem of not being very well liked even in his own party which will also limit his power, especially if he actually tries to make a wall. ( A wall across the US border would be the most expensive project in US history, as well it would cost the entire budget of NASA)
So neither one of them would get much done, but their both shits who will try

The problem is that Hillary is not in bed with Russia but trump is. We have the choice of third world war if Hillary is elected, plus riots from trump supporters, or we basically become North Korea with a trump victory. Time to build a backyard shelter, I guess.

Hillary will be a bad, ineffective and corrupt president - I'm not disputing that. However, Trump is a neofascist who will by executive order (as revealed in either the 1st or 2nd debate, I forget) have his political opponents jailed. That is fucking unprecedented in America or any modern first world country. To add to that, third parties don't stand a chance (and I think that John Oliver explained quite well what's wrong with both Johnson and Stein, though I think a president not knowing where one of the worlds major conflicts is is obviously bad anyway). The only vote that can save America from destruction is Hillary (we've survived one Clinton, we can survive another) and even then I don't trust what Trump might do if he doesn't win.

And the U.K and Europe is stuck in-between the two.

I miss the 2012 and 2008 elections where both candidates would have made decent presidents and both candidates in both of those elections actually legitimately cared about America. Obama's a good president in my opinion (Obamacare isn't as effective as advertised but it's hard on him being a lame duck with congress and the supreme court against him and it's still better than what existed before it), Romney was a pretty decent guy (he supported big business but some amount of big business is needed to support an economy) and John McCain was a fucking war hero - if Obama could run for term 3, or if either McCain or Romney could run again (or if Kasich or Jeb Bush won the Republican ticket) or if O'Malley, Biden or Gore had the Democrats or if Bloomberg were running for either party really we'd have better options, but this year just sucks.

Also all of us are too young to vote and the only person here who I know for a fact to be over 18 is Duck who isn't an American so us discussing politics is like if we were to plan an invasion of Russia or something.

They'd both equally fuck up America There is no in between Neither of them are really better then the other I just don't want Hillary putting a no-fly zone in Syria Because that's how you start WWIII with a desperate and declining Russia Now, I think anyone worth their shit in congress will deny that proposition But the fact alone that she thinks that's a good idea scares me more then any of the retarded bullshit Trump has said

Trump's a neofascist. I would like to quickly amend my statement to point out that I am in no way supporting Hillary's decision here, but she flip-flops enough anyway for me to be relatively certain that once more people are aware of this plan she'll have never supported it to begin with, like the TPP.

That article casually mentioned the Baltics and reminded me of why an isolationist America under Trump would still likely cause WWIII or some similar event - if Russia annexes the Baltics, all three of which are members of the EU, that would bring other EU countries and their allies into the war. Even with Brexit I'm willing to bet that the UK and her empire would side with Europe in this conflict, and with no America as a deterrent against that course of action the five to six hundred nukes between France and the UK would be no match for the approx. 8,000 nukes that Russia has (and they wouldn't even need to use all of them to win the war and still be a major global power).
