To Old to Drive

Post by woodchip »

I guess Hillary health problems prevent her from taking a 20 minute drive in a car. As they said in Morrowind, why drive when you can fly:

The presidential candidate, who is endlessly trying to tell factory workers in Ohio and Pennsylvania that she’s one of them, jetted approximately 20 miles from Martha’s Vineyard — where she was last night partying with President Obama — to Nantucket for a fundraiser on Saturday.

Oh and I guess partying is more important than all those little people Hillary Clinton vows to support. Yes the optics keep getting better. Another nail in her coffin (to any NSA/FBI/CIA types reading this, I was just refering to her chances to win :wink: )

Apparently now there emerged some kind of hint of understanding . This is either the calm before another world war, which is supposed to be in 2025 according to my assumptions, or vice versa, a miracle happens and or people will sleep quietly for a while yet.

too old to spell? Otherwise, another load of claptrap, given all those photo ops of Trump driving and all. Yeesh, you are getting sad in your desperation.

You realize, do you not, that one does not DRIVE from the Vineyard to Nantucket, or visa versa. The 12 mile wide channel between the two islands makes that hazardous, at best. Only someone supremely STUPID would suggest it be driven.

She's not too old to drive, she's just too elitist and probably considers it beneath her to actually operate something as plebeian as her own car. :P

There is a ferry. You do remember how the Dems got down on the auto execs for flying to DC. No problem making them drive. If Hillary is too week and frail to use the ferry, maybe instead of partying with POTUS, she should of went to LA instead. I guess we see where her priorities lay. Oh and slick, maybe you need to write Hillary another check:
Campaign manager Robby Mook has written a panicky pitch to Hillary Clinton supporters warning that fundraising numbers are dipping – even adding “that’s how elections are lost.”

There is NO ferry between Nantucket and the Vineyard. There is one from Hyannis to Nantucket and another one that goes to the Vineyard directly from Rhode Island. So, to take the ferry, she, and her trusy rent-a-car would have taken a ferry 25 miles to the mainland, driven 140 miles to Rhode Island, taken another ferry ride. Once again, where are those elitist optics contrasting with the Donald's private jet, etc??

Oh, and TC, did you even read what I wrote before your goofy opinion about driving?

Don't remember that one running daily, but will accept Google maps. The point is that you are again making something of utterly nothing.

This is a ridiculous topic. You should be discussing the much more pressing concern of where Hillary gets her hair cut.

Yeah, how much CO2 did that plane emit going there and coming back. Again the optics are bad. To bad you have selective outrage when it comes to polluting the atmosphere.

seriously? A private jet hopping to the vineyard? Optics? Compared, I ask again, to what? The Donald goes everywhere by air. She and Kaine take bus trips most of the time so far. If your chosen candidate lounges at Mar El Largo, or in the penthouse in NYC, you don't really have much by way of optics that you wish to trumpet, bunky.

for the same reason he is concerned with Hillary's health. By the way, I just found out that Trump's dad died due to Altzheimer's. The genetic links in that disease are provable. Just sayin'

Legitimate concern. If she can't handle the rigors of walking up stairs and needs to nap half the day away, how is that good for handling the pressures of the job?

like criticizing bad hair or spray tans this health matter isn't a very bright choice(but, Giuliani is voicing it, so I'm being redundant): Trumps ONLY document of health is:
1. Written on a generic Word letterhead format
2. Attested to by a guy who claims membership in a professional organization which he hasn't belonged to in decades.
3. The above doctor is a gastroenterologist claiming to have treated Mr Trump for 3 decades
4. Despite have a gastrointestinal issue unresolved after nearly 30 years, the Doctor claims that Trump has no health issues whatsover.
5. The Doctor claims that Trump, a 70 year old man, would be " the healthiest President of all time", an utterly ludicrous and unprofessional claim,
clearly ghostwritten by the candidate or staff.

Finally, given that Trump's own father had Altzheimers, is, if either of them, the most statistically likely to have mental health issues. His actions on stage raise questions in some folks around personality disorders.

No, the health issue is a sure backfire.

yup, and you go to a gastroenterologist, as Trump apparently has for nearly 30 years according to his one-page medical report.

so to return to the original beef, Woody has his panties in a bunch because Ms Clinton, rather than wait however long for the ferry, and then take a hour long ride, and kill more time returning, while running a tight campaign schedule, decided to fly. I searched, in vain, for commentary about how the Orange Baboon has to return to NYC BY PLANE every other day since he began the campaign a year ago. Woody, can you point me to your posts of outrage over the carbon usage? :roll: :roll:








yeesh, at least he could attempt to have a sincere issue.

Trump and the Repub. weren't the ones making a issue on carbon footprints. Nice try at deflection tho.

that's true, they are the party of utter denial. My point is that 'compare and contrast' doesn't make her look bad, and that is what counts. Her CO2 footprint isn't a fraction of his, and most sane people realize you travel a lot to run for President.

Actually, if she's infirm, it's a plus, at least for me. We get her, we don't get Trump. If she croaks off, we get rid of her and get Tim Kaine. If Trump were to croak off, and remember, he's no spring chicken either, we'd end up with Mike Pence, a lousy option for anyone who doesn't want to see a Christian Theocracy put in place in this country.
