I would advise Hillary to build a molecule chamber onstage, then bait Trump into activating it with her inside. What he won't know is that she switched it so the red light is outside. I have seen this work in a documentary.

Mr. Trump, you have said that mexicans are rapists. How do you respond?

If you recall from any of the other debates, he would just tack mud onto the end of any question. I won't let people die in the street, and btw, Chris fucked up Atlantic City, just so you know.

I would imagine his reaction also opens him up to people asking why he reacted the way he did. That opens the door to that Cuban is a billionaire and it's provable. Where Trump just claims to be one and refuses to release his tax returns, etc. so no one knows for sure and many believe he isn't and how that bothers Trump in the end. Even if this becomes about Trump around the debate it's not a good narrative to have because so much of it leads back to him negatively. The best thing he could have done was shut the hell up but he couldn't help himself. This is after he said he was going to be nice and respectful to Hillary. The next day that goes out the window.

This. The main reason that nobody has been able to really get under Trump's skin about his wealth is that, regardless of what the actual figure is, Trump is likely far wealthier than any critic trying to rile him up.

Except Cuban. Cuban's the only one who, depending on the actual figure of Trump's net worth, might be worth more than Trump. No one else can get him to throw one of his patented hissy fits over his wealth.

What do you want me to say? Trumps move is way worse, but Cuban sucks. Just don't think he needs to be around, and Hill doesn't need someone to appeal to Trump voters. Fuck them, motivate your base.

Part of her base is young people, and young people like tech-related venture capitalists who own sports teams. He even played a charity game of League against Intel's CEO. Stuff like that is appealing to younger people.

You'd think he'd invite the Benghazi mom or someone like that. But nooo he has to go tabloid gutter level. Not sure how trying to shame the spouse of a philanderer helps with the female vote but you do you Trump. As for Cuban, I'd rather have someone like Bloomberg or Buffet but Cuban in particular seems to really tick him off.

If Trump makes any reference to Flowers or Bill's other peccadilloes, we'll be able to step outside and actually hear the gender gap sealing shut on him in real-time.

Yeah. More women would easily be persuaded to vote for hilary if he dared to bring up that stuff at thew debate.

One thing I would say, based on the Brexit campaign - arguing over Donald Trumps wealth is a complete waste of time. We spent a lot of time pointing out how the £350m figure that the Leave campaign was throwing about was a lie, and that the real figure was a lot less - and it didn't matter, because the real figure still sounds like a shit lot of money.

I know it gets under his skin and is irritating, but unless it prompts him to go nuts and call her a ***** on stage I really do t think it's worth it.

We're not arguing over Trump's wealth to convince anybody (except insofar as it pertains to his tax returns). We're bringing it up because he's supremely sensitive to it.

You could say it's his kryptonite.

Lets be fair here. Will Trump "answer" any question without bringing up either EMails, Benghazi, or the Clinton Foundation?

Can you imagine the conversation?

KIM: I can't believe the things Donald Trump says and does. The way he treats women is disgusting. The threat he poses to America is unparalleled. His language towards African Americans are beyond foul. He is the greatest and most immediate enemy the American experiment has ever faced. I can't imagine telling my child I voted for Donald Trump.

CAITLYN: But did you consider that Donald Trump is, actually, very good? He's actually right.

KIM: Wow, I never looked at it that way. I'm really going to have to think about this. You are so wise, Caitlyn.

I was watching Funny or Die videos and I saw the Kings of Alt-Right Comedy video got downvoted by the alt-right brigade. Kind of a scary bunch...

The MoE on the poll is 5%, so I suspect both results are crap. Still, um, does 538 not make enough money?

Why would ESPN cut them? How expensive could it really be?

Imagine this fucking weird scenario:

Hillary is up by 5 points in Penn but then were two 4 point errors in opposite directions in different polls. How could that possibly happen, a statistical object could never have behavior like that.

If only there were other data points we could use together with those two polls.

Wait it went from McGinty +5 to Toomey +1? In a week with absolutely nothing happening?

The biggest news of the week was Hillary on Between Two Ferns.

This is a shit poll. WTF.

The pollsters themselves said that there was a massive shift because... of that New York bomber who killed zero people (only really injuring one) and got arrested immediately.

... The pollsters are probably worse pundits than 538, lol.

I could see that with the demonstrations affecting things but why would it affect Toomey/McGinty? Is it just response rates?
