The nation may survive, but the wound to hope and order will never fully heal - US elections 2016: the october surprises

getting caught on audio slagging his loyal 'centipedes' idk

he had the space shuttle challenger destroyed "as a goof"

eating an abortion

man i would love to shoot the shit about politics with cyndi lauper

just Twitter and some SA goons

has SA generally been pro-Hillary? it's been really enlightening to see how ppl/groups are going this election. lots of intelligent provocateurs who you might think would be pro-trump for the lolz but who are too smart for that shit.

Slagging poor white people for being losers. Whatever his edition of "bitter clingers" will be.

or something that would cause his hardcore support to doubt him but i'm having trouble imagining what that could be

laughing about an abortion?

I can think of a lot of single-issue voters in my family for whom this wouldn't push them to vote for Hillary, but they'd just stay home.

And I mean I'd love to see it, because frankly if Trump is not personally responsible for one or more abortions I'll eat a Make America Great Again hat.

Of course, some subset of those single-issue voters would rationalize it away by saying

*saying I THOUGHT YOU LIBTARDS LOVED ABORTIONS

BOOM fivethirtyeight nowcast moves to 100% Hillary 0% Trump

I don't think this has shown up yet today:

http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2016/10/10/trump-taj-mahal-closes-after-years-losses/91845566/

This was being passed around last night

The year is 2016. Trump Taj Mahal workers watch their old boss in a presidential debate. They lose their jobs at 5:59 a.m.

xp SA has always been pretty liberal in my experience, though i haven't spent much time there in the past 10 years. the politics forum had a bunch of angry libertarians but other than that it was mostly cynical leftists and lots of apolitical ppl

4chan is the board with the people who are dumb enough to elect trump for entertainment value

re: rigged talk and riots or w/e - - - as others have said i'm much more worried about this stuff turning out intimidation and violence on election day. all that "you gotta watch the polling places" stuff. it poses real, serious dangers imo. in that unpredictable way that inciting people en masse, however vaguely, tends to do.

hard to imagine trump giving a traditional concession speech on election night

what's worse than the n word at this point, really?
let's not play this game

lol?

^^^yeah DC i guess upon reflection that's more what i'm worried about. that the talk of 'rigging' will lead to intimidation and either conflict or trump getting elected somehow

and yeah i am definitely more worried than usual about polling place violence this election

I actually just went over to fivethirtyeight to see if this was true.

I just realized that I've heard a lot less recently from the celebrity wingnut yappers like James Woods, Adam Baldwin, Jon Voight, Da Nuge, etc. Have they been more quiet? Did Trump's own craziness render them irrelevant?

trump getting elected somehow

ain't happening come on now

James Woods ‏@RealJamesWoods 12h12 hours ago
When will #ClintonFluffer @jaketapper have these #BillClinton rape victims on his show? He had "Miss Universe" on to tell her spurious tale.

xpost - voight was just calling out de niro on twitter a couple days ago

hey so i wonder how chris wallace is gonna handle this next debate, will he try to be legitmate journalist or fox news hack

oof, ok, they're still bringing the crazy, just nobody reporting on it.

I assumed they were in Iowa filing for 2020

https://twitter.com/jonvoight active on saturday

it's kinda funny that, divorced from the last 12 months, a year ago the phrase "there is a conspiracy to keep Donald Trump out of the White House" would have sounded as absurd as "There is a plot to keep Ja Rule from running the Orange County school system"

xps i have way more respect for Chris Wallace than some of his hack colleagues like Hannity, O'Reilly, and the morons on Fox & Friends. I feel the same way about Brit Hume and Shep Smith. Wallace will be a professional on the 19th.

grudging respect for Wallace, but Hume is human garbage. fuck him.

Trump's probably advocated Hitler

well it's all relative at Fox... also I haven't seen or heard Hume in a while, just remember watching him as a kid in the early aughts

Remember he was the one who was straight out of the gate when the moderators were announced, talking about how he didn't think it was his job to fact-check the candidates.

re: riots, I agree there won't be riots, I'm sure there'll be picketing though, but it will probably be more the 'mosquito' type.

probably just means some of your friends and family members will be more insufferable than usual for two months, and then will breathe a deep sigh of relief as they anticipate Matt Walsh's 2020 run.

who the fuck is Matt Walsh (I thought, then googled, and found, and had to quicly click away from his site)

the guy from Veep?

read his Miley Cyrus article or his article on the famous Marilyn Monroe quote about loving her at her worst for some of his piercing "insights". or actually, don't. eat a popsicle, masturbate, w/e else, time better spent

Chris Wallace is garbage

worse, v obviously, would be something that might trigger a more immediate criminal investigation

love the juxtaposition of these posts

the idea of Dave making eye contact with Tim while he sings "hike up your skirt a little more" is a bit nauseating

I've watched clips of Chris Wallace throwing Reagan hard questions in '80s press conferences. He's a pod person now.

Brandon Wall ‏@Walldo 6m6 minutes ago
“Special prosecutor, here we come,” Trump says as the crowd chants “lock her up”

tbf hard questions for Reagan around 1988 would have been "what day is today"

if you want to watch him live then https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yg989MvfXXo

it's like he thinks that as long as the people who voted for him in the primary still really like him, he wins the election
