BIDEN NOT RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT, ENDORSES DONALD TRUMP

WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles) – “I don’t consider Republicans enemies; they’re friends.”

With these words, Vice President Joe Biden announced that he has decided not to seek the Democratic nomination for president. At the same time he formally endorsed Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

“The other team is not the enemy,” he said Tuesday night during dinner remarks at the Four Seasons hotel in Washington. “If you treat it as the enemy there is no way we can ever ever solve the problems we have to.”

In making the announcement at the White House Rose Garden, Biden chastised Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders for distancing themselves from President Obama in their respective campaigns.

“Our country needs four or eight more years of Obama, and only Trump has the audacity to continue with the accomplishments of the present administration — from health care and immigration reform to marriage equality and better opportunities for the middle class,” the vice president said.

Biden’s endorsement of Trump could only mean one thing: that Trump will be the Republican nominee for president and will win by a landslide against either Clinton or Bernie Sanders in the general elections.

FCC ORDERS SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE TO GIVE EQUAL TIME TO ALL CANDIDATES

WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles) – The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has ordered Saturday Night Live (SNL) to have each of the remaining 36 Republican presidential candidates host a future episode of the late-night comedy television show.

SNL had previously announced that Donald Trump will host the November 7 episode, prompting complaints from the rest of the Republican candidate field.

FCC rules mandate that if free airtime was granted to a candidate over the public airwaves, equal time had to be made available to his or her opponent, if it was requested.

Well, all of Trump’s opponents requested equal time.

So there you have it, for 35 weeks after November 7 viewers will be treated to a GOP presidential candidate hosting SNL, starting with Ben Carson.

On the Democratic side, since Hillary Clinton appeared for a short segment of SNL recently, each of the Democratic presidential candidates (except Jim Webb who dropped out of the race today) will be given the same amount of time on the show.

That, folks, is how Demoracy works!

DONALD TRUMP SIGNIFICANTLY DROPS IN LATEST POLL, THANKS TO STAR WARS

October 20, 2015 Pol Pinoy Leave a comment

WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles) – Donald Trump’s domination as the frontrunner in the race for the Republican nomination for president has finally come to an end.

Latest national polls show Ben Carson and Carly Fiorina tied at 23% each to claim the top spot in the Republican field of presidential candidates. Trump has slid to 7th place with only 4%.

The polls were taken shortly after the official release of the trailer of the upcoming Hollywood film, ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens,” which has a black man and a woman as the lead characters.

Prior to the trailer release, Trump’s racist supporters flooded the Internet with tweets and posts calling for a boycott of the film because it has cast too many women, blacks, Latinos and Asians, and presumably gay men and women.

The racist tweets fueled by the #BoycottStarWarsVII hashtag warned that the new Star Wars movie promotes “white genocide” and was made “to demoralize and destroy Whites.”

The votes for Carson and Fiorina have sent a clear message to Trump and his persistent attacks on women and minorities on the campaign trail.

Meanwhile, Trump’s Facebook and Twitter accounts had to be temporarily suspended because angry netizens were posting “Bye, Felicia” memes on his pages.
