well he does believe anything tweeted at him by literal Nazis so

Exactly!

Bubba H.O.T.A.P.E (ShariVari), Tuesday, 11 October 2016 12:52 (seven years ago) link

but yeah that story is insane - it's legit concerning how little Trump and his supporters care about even the most basic of facts. I keep thinking about that lady who was interviewed after the birther stunt - "if Trump says it, then it's true"

frogbs, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 13:02 (seven years ago) link

so is Trump convinced he won in a landslide cos he read a Drudge instapoll?

Neanderthal, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 13:12 (seven years ago) link

like w/ Mitt Romney, I thought he was a douche and I hated his politics, but I'm going to hate any GOP politics in 2016. I could at least shake the guy's hand if I met him while thinking he's a dickhole in my head.

I'd have a hard time doing anything but spitting in The Donald's dead-capybara-fused-with-a-brillo-pad afro

Desite winning the second debate (wrong.) in a landslide (wrong!) (every poll) (WRONG)

wow things are not going well if you can only get 70% on Drudge

Our very weak and ineffective leader, Paul Ryan, had a bad conference call where his members went wild at his disloyalty.

Neanderthal, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 13:18 (seven years ago) link

also this makes me wonder - is Trump intentionally lying about the debate polls or are his staffers are too afraid to give him any bad news?

frogbs, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 13:20 (seven years ago) link

First Trump, and now Paul Ryan is shaking his members at people?

Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 13:20 (seven years ago) link

i just tweeted back four or five times at Trump (for no good reason) and it was only after the fifth that I realized I was using my secondary joke Twitter handle, "Buttface"

so you're the reason i had to be content with "buttface103" on twitter

What does he think he can gain from going after Paul Ryan? He's just giving Ryan more justification to rescind his endorsement.

jmm, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 13:28 (seven years ago) link

he can't beat hillary clinton. he _can_ beat paul ryan.

fat fingered algorithm (rushomancy), Tuesday, 11 October 2016 13:31 (seven years ago) link

Trump would love to have Ryan and McConnell's unendorsements. Stabbed-in-the-back defeat narrative.

Leading one to speculate whether Breitbart is better off if Trump wins the election or loses it. If he wins, they can declare victory... but they have no contingency plan for how to operate in the resulting world. If he loses, they remain in the gadfly space, which is their comfort zone.

I wish we could all beat Paul Ryan.

Huh, of the two tweets about Ryan, one is from android and one is from iphone. Perhaps Bannon has gotten the phone from Conway?

With the exception of cheating Bernie out of the nom the Dems have always proven to be far more loyal to each other than the Republicans!

The former radio shock jock’s disdain for Trump reached a crescendo in April when he donned swim goggles and rubbed his face in a bowl of crushed Cheetos to see if he could β€œlook like Donald Trump.”

anyone read this? Dark Money by Jane Mayer

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/jan/17/dark-money-review-nazi-oil-the-koch-brothers-and-a-rightwing-revolution

piscesx, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 14:25 (seven years ago) link

from the comments section of that breitbart, a little poetry for a tuesday morning:

Cackling Cankles β€’ 9 hours ago
Glenn Beck's a pedocon King
Who pushes the β€œRINO First” thing
But deep in his heart
He’d rather hear a fat boy fart
Than ever hear a pretty girl sing!

When his all boy crew shows up to work,
You hear Glenn gayly going berserk
Then they giggle and lisp,
Like a will-o’-the wisp…
It sounds like a junior high circle jerk!

blonde redheads have more fun (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 11 October 2016 14:25 (seven years ago) link

I've read the Dark Money book, yeah. It's very good, though I don't remember much about 'nazi oil'. It was also quite fun reading it as Trump was turning the revolution on his head. But if GOP retains senate, then dark money has probably proven it's worth again.

Wasn't Alex Jones featured in a Linklater movie? I remember his show in the late 90's in Austin. Weird that he has moved to this extreme right position.

JacobSanders, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 14:46 (seven years ago) link

watching that video i had the sobering realisation that alex jones and i are basically torso twins :(
