For me Clinton and Obama and most of the democrats candidates are SOOOOOOOO bad that make guys like Trump a Luxury.

 

Obama and Hillary promote the Arab springs (with some europeans allies), with many deads and millions of refugees......but Trump with 0 wars and nothing important really bad is evil......

 

Things of the politcal correction and post truth

That whole system is strange, but it's been in place well before these elections. It's not like the rules changed suddenly. Trump won these elections, and is the president of each and every American citizen, regardless whether or not any one random citizen is happy with that or not. Fight him with facts? That is a fact.

Laws are written by those in charge, surely they can be changed

Do you prefer Clinton or Obama like President?

Obama by a marathon, I would’ve (was too young at the time) voted for Sanders because I’m more of a socialist.

Surely they can, but as long as they're not, the winner is the one who wins the elections with the system that is in place. If you can only win the Olympic 400m gold medal by making a backwards somersault over the finish, that sucks, but if that's the rule beforehand, it's clear for everyone and the winner is the one who does that :p

I disagree with all of that

    • I`m a traditionalist and I like alpine skiing competitions in the morning hours, illuminated by the sun In ski jumping this is practically non-existentthis in contrast the early 21st century (It's nice that at least there's Planica at the end of every season). There are also traditional competitions under artificial lights, like in Schladming or Madonna di Campiglio. There's no need to do the same thing everywhere as in ski jumping. Alpine skiing finals are rarely super exciting, because usually everything is clear and the skiers are tired from the long season. Finals were often canceled, so this year it was okay for me. If someone wanted a spectacle, that's what the Olympics Games or the World Cup in Kitzbuchel.
    • Parallel Slalom WC Winterberg     Mixed Team Gold-  Italy 2 (Aaron March/Lucia Dalmasso) Silver-  Austria 1 (Andreas Prommegger/Sabine Payer) Bronze-  Canada 1 (Arnaud Gaudet/Aurelie Moisan)   Full Results
    • Baffling scheduling again. It's like FIS want to drive people away.    It's the Finals, on paper your big conclusion to the season, yet it feels like "let's get this over with". Just compare how the ATP treat their finals with this.   Ok, you want to have the GS & SL on Tuesday/Wednesday. That's fine, i've been advocating for more mid-week starts to begin with. But why, oh why do you have them in the middle of the day, on a work week.  Why aren't you having them in the evening, in prime time, when people are off work. Make it a big special event, which people want to visit and not during the day in front of a 100 fans. It's not that hard to choose a place with some floodlights.     And even this week we don't have Champion League football, so the night is free from big competition. Perfect opportunity to have alpine skiing on TV right now, but noooo.
