I think Americans don't see how bad Hillary is because they, in some twisted way, think it's ok for America to invade and bomb other countries.

Not like teh donald, who only wants to "bomb the shit out of them". I think Americans don't see how bad Trump is because they, in some twisted way, think that nothing he says matters. Almost as if he might be a pathological liar, but that's okay. Makes it fine to tolerate the fact that he's racist sexual predator and white collar criminal.

They are both bad. I'm just wondering why Bill Maher is such an obsequious fan of Hillary?

He's against the Republicans; the viable alternative is the Democrats. HRC happens to be the nominee this time, had it been Sanders, or Biden he likely would have supported them too.

ok..thank you. Personally I see little difference between republicans and democrats
ok..thank you. Personally I see little difference between republicans and democrats
Why is that? Please be specific both in terms of domestic & foreign policy.
They look different during election, once they get elected they are the same.ok..thank you. Personally I see little difference between republicans and democrats

I'm not American so I give a lot less weight to domestic policy.
As far as foreign policy goes they are the same. They both hold strongly to the right to invade and bomb countries which pose no threat. They both pander to Israel.

Banksters and other interested parties are paying to both parties equally for a reason. Bill Maher is right about one thing, americans (and people in general) are not interested in politics.
Yes, in some ways. But most of these are irrelevant for the rest of the worldI'm not American so I give a lot less weight to domestic policy.

So you acknowledge that they are different on domestic policy?
They can both pander without being "exactly the same", as you put itIf they both pander to Israel, why is Netanyahu taking sides with the Republicans, as opposed to Obama. For example both Israel & the Republicans were opposed to the Nuclear deal with Iran. The Democrats hold the opposite position of Israel & the Republicans on this. Are those really exactly the same to you? Which side of that issue, do you think is more likely to avoid another war in the Middle East? There's a big lack of specifics there. I'm hearing a lot of "they're the same" but a glaring lack of specifics as to why.

They enable and go along with Israel's treatment of the Palestinians and the failure of Israel to comply with the UN resolutions.How exactly are they pandering? Please be specific.

That is good to know. It would difficult for a furriner to understand what could have happened if the trillions spent in overseas wars (since the Republicans took over the White House in January 2001), had been spent instead on domestic infrastructure (jobs!), education etc.. There would be far fewer people in the US who could be convinced that the reason they have nothing is because of the OTHERS, and the Trumps of the world would at least need a new pitch.

Yes I did. You then asked how they were "exactly the same". I don't think they are exactly the same.You claim they are the same on issues of foreign policy, I just gave you a specific example of how they're different.
...what I meant.As far as foreign policy goes they are the same. They both hold strongly to the right to invade and bomb countries which pose no threat. They both pander to Israel. They both seem to want to increase tensions with Russia and China. They both support "regime change" around the world.
