 You had no choice of liberty in this election.  An amateur lunatic will go too far in his authoritarian aims and fall on his face in the attempt to pull off an Orwellian result.  A pro will take a page from Huxley and further steal our liberties on the sly.
 
 These two were all about Control.  You couldn't have picked a better ad against individual freedom than Donald and Hillary side by side if you tried.  The only person who concerned me more than either of them is Pence.  At least they're nihilists.  Pence is on a mission.  And it's biblical.
 |  Trump's disdain for the rule of law is plain, and he has already started to go after the press.  I don't understand what threat you think Hillary posed to liberty.  Whatever the NSA would have done to intrude on you under her, it's not like they're going to back off because he's in charge.
