    The 2016 Presidential Debates

    "I haven’t been in many [drinking contests], but the most famous one, I suppose is the one I engaged in with Sen. John McCain when he and I were on a congressional delegation and he kind of challenged me. We have our political differences, but we sat there drinking vodka. We both I think agreed to withdraw in honorable fashion I think after having reached the limits that either of us should have had." -- Hillary Clinton

    Jeez... Just... Jesus Fucking Christ, this election has been a cluster-fuck of insanity. Imagine a sharknado but the sharks are insane people. The press at large have failed in their duties, the nation is split like no other time in our contemporary history and doesn't it all just want to make you DRINK?

    Well buckle up and fill your cup because starting Monday September 26th, we get our first official match-up between the GOP's Donald John Trump and the Democrat's Hillary Rodham Clinton. Following that the debate schedule looks like Tuesday October 4th ( between their vice presidential running-mates), Sunday October 9th and their final battle on Wednesday October 19, 2016. Some of you may be questioning the entertainment value of a presidential debate and, oh boy... Its like a real life oratory-version of all those Dragon Ball Z fights you grew up watching. You're going to watch a battle of rhetoric between two people who despise each other publicly but are likely sort-of-okay with each other privately. It's going to be YUGE!!!.

    The Rules
    312a58e0-4374-0133-5ba8-0aecee5a8273.gif?

    #1. Take a drink if Trump insults/attacks his opponent, a group of people and/or the moderators.

    #2. Take a drink for every reference to Clinton's email scandal, Benghazi, Trump University, or the Clinton Foundation.

    #3. Take a shot if Trump brings up Bill Clinton's sex scandal from the 1990's or if Hillary outright calls Donald Trump a fascist/demagogue.

    The Drinks
    H022_Hillary001%20.jpg

    #1. The Trump: For the New York real-estate mogul you're only going to drink the best. The best. I mean, really the best stuff. They tell me folks everywhere love it. Love it. They love it. You'll be serving yourself up a Hairy Navel because it's orange, features "hair" in its title and if you could track it down, can be made with Trump Vodka (I wish I could...). 3/4 oz. vodka, 3/4 oz. peach schnapps and orange juice.

    #2. The Chillary: For the former New York senator and secretary of state we've heard she is a fan of ice cold vodka martinis. I won't list out the recipe because its just your bog-standard vodka martini (she prefers it shaken, like Bond) but do make sure it is cold enough to freeze any doubts you may have in yourself.

    The Food

    There are so many options... Just... Holy shit, where do we start? Obviously you could buy some really cheap/low-grade steaks and just pretend that they are the best. Just the best, the best. Taco bowls are an obvious pick as is KFC, just make sure they are mass produced. And for the blue-side, Hillary is a big fan of spicy food so I'm going to recommend a cheese burger with: pepper jack, jalapenos, hot sauce, ect.. Hillary likes her drinks cold and her food hot, she's like the Song of Fire & Ice made corporeal.

    @Zonugal Would you mind putting this on Facebook? I'm heading out of town this weekend, and I want to be able to tell my hosts what to go shopping for before I get there.

    EDIT: I also don't want to get blamed for this want to give credit where credit is due

    If Truno arranged some sort of last minute debate with Gary Johnston I wouldn't be surprised.

    Trump has in the past suggested to his supporters that maybe they ought to shoot Hillary

    This comment feels almost tame in comparison

    Hillary just walks up to him and hands him a knife, wrenching open her tasteful Armani suit jacket and commanding him to stab it into her heart and he starts crying and then she just kinda gently pushes him over and declares that he HAS NO HONOR.

    Last page this felt like a silly over the top reaction, but now it almost seems reasonable considering that he keeps suggesting that people will or would kill her without protection.

    Even if there wasn't a threat implied in that statement, Donald, those men with guns surrounding her are Secret Service. They have had some intensive training and probably some of the most extensive background checks on the planet, you dumb fuck.

    There should be someone standing next to Trump with an air horn that gets blasted in his ear every time he lies in the debates .

    His whole campaign is based on repeating lies so many times that people start to go "Well, I heard it somewhere so it must be true."

    Trump said that "Clinton lives behind gates and walls and guards" and that working-class families "just want a fraction of the security enjoyed by our politicians and certainly enjoyed by her."

    This idea that Trump is just "regular folk" is one of the most absurd things about his campaign.

    Like, top 50 maybe.

    It reminds me of Tracy Jordan's stand-up on 30 Rock.

    There's a persistent myth among hardcore conservatives that instead of just wanting to implement stronger background checks and make it harder for unstable and criminal people to get them, Clinton wants to completely ban all guns.

    Coincidentally I feel like if you are the sort that lives in fear of the government marching in and taking your guns away

    Maybe you are not the sort of person who ought to have guns

    I saw a guy walk out of a bathroom stall and accidentally smack his concealed carry gun against his massive gut and then the sink as he was trying to straighten his shirt and check his fly today.

    That argument got brought up all the time with Obama too. Totally unoriginal.

    It gets brought up with literally anyone who is famous but speaks out against guns. It got brought up against Rosie O'Donnel because she pays bodyguards who are armed so her kids are safe.
