 Another source to prove that
 
I even  have a third
That's not debatable. Maxx is correct

 "The Shorenstein Center study is based on an analysis of thousands of news statements by CBS, Fox, the Los Angeles Times, NBC, The New York Times, USA Today, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post." 
 
Yeah it's pretty debatable, having a hard time trusting these receipts. They hardly cite any examples    And negative coverage of Clinton is related to the General Public perception. People don't like her. I was talking about how the major news outlets obviously treat Hillary better.

 Okay but where are your receipts to prove otherwise? Because so far I've seen none and you only just said some things...

 Google News is my receipts    An opinion piece on the front page of CNN/HP describing why Donald is racist, sexist, dangerous etc is not the same as an article about Hilary being under investigation because one is an opinion and the other is a real event.

 That doesn't prove he gets more negative coverage than her. It just shows he made a dumb mistake this week
 
Clinton is the candidate with the most negative coverage since the race began, as sources corroborated

 Well maybe if he didn't mock a disabled person or call Mexicans rapists or say women are pigs and don't work hard enough as men to justify not securing equal pay or that every country should have nuclear weapons, we wouldn't be calling him racist, sexist, and dangerous....

I mean let's say that's true. You want to ban someone for having a non Clinton opinion? That's hilariously outrageous

I love how all these Canadians, Brits, Brazilians, Easter Europeans, etc. are so thirsty for a Trump win. As if that's going to be of any benefit to them.

 I know you don't want Trump to win, but I assume he's saying you're trolling by acting like you support Hillary when you actually want her to fail. I guess he doesn't get your sense of humor when it comes to her "scandals" like I used to be.   
=== 
Hillary is loved around the world. The rest of the world, outside of Russia, North Korea and ISIS, fears a Trump presidency.

 I posted about this a while ago but we all know I love political tea. 
The story about Hillary being considered to replace Biden in 2012 is still so interesting to me. I just found a blind gossip post on it:  http://blindgossip.com/?p=46661
It was widely speculated and you know what they say. When there's smoke, there's fire. Especially in politics. I 100% believe it happened but there's a lot of disputes on how. Some say it was just the people running Barack's campaign and he didn't actually know, some say Hillary turned it down because if Barack lost in 2012, she didn't wanna be attached to the losing campaign. I'm also interested in (but don't believe) the theory of how the Clinton's secretly wanted Obama to lose in 2012 because they thought it'd be easier for Hillary to run against an incumbent Republican. That way the campaign could be about bashing the current President's record, rather than having to defend and attach herself to Barack's record.

 Does anyone else think that NC could be bluer than OH, FL and IA? McCrory's unpopularity/bathroom bill + voter ID law struck down + a rapidly changing demographic with all of the NY/NJ transplants and a significant minority population. 
 
OH and IA have a lot of those blue collar voters that like Trump and FL has a lot of rednecks in the northern area that could counter southern Florida.

 There was speculation and consideration, but the DOJ said no because there is simply no evidence. Even if a probe does begin, it'll be after Hillary wins the presidency so we're good with that one term Queen.

 NC and FL are basically equal. Ohio and then Iowa last. 
 
But yes NC is moving Democratic faster which is why we'll have the Senate, Governor, and president. FL is getting there, but the older people aren't dying fast enough. Ohio and Iowa are moving to the right. Iowa much faster than Ohio.

 How different Hillary's image would be if she never gave Goldman Sachs speeches and didn't use her own email server   
The American people are so... I hope her favorability goes up when she's POTUS.
