This man is so unaware.

David Gergen on CNN just said something along the lines of Trump turning this into the people vs the elite, so who the hell knows how this is being spun at this point.

I think Trump's people said no to his event tonight and so he "went to the bathroom" and then ran into the elevator and went out the front.

So either McCain finally regrew a spine or internal polling is scaring him.
regrew implies something that existed once before

only problem with Trump's shots at McCain was that he made it too broad so it brought in POWs in general, McCain was a complete fuckup who crashed countless planes, had no real qualifications, finished nearly last in the class and the only reason he wasn't kicked out of service was because his daddy was an admiral

then he got lucky and the commies "rescued" him after one of his many crashes and he became a "war hero"

he's an authoritarian prick who accidentally falls into the right position on issues sometimes because he's chasing media attention

and he rescued cindy from severe drug trafficking charges by pulling his congressman card

McCain will forever be remembered as the man who infected presidential politics with Palin and the tea party, the man who told an old racist to sit down, and the man whose duty to his country was questioned by Trump and then endorsed him.

I know the all-politicians-are-bad thing, but McCain, folks. Politician.
 
All of Mike Pence's events have been scrubbed from Trump's schedule on his website. It now says:

GOVERNOR MIKE PENCE EVENTS
PLEASE CHECK BACK LATER FOR AN UPDATED SCHEDULE

"Do people still love me? Tremendously? Sure. That's why I'll still run."

Someone posted it in the last thread, but It was a Trump supporter on twitter that had come to the realization after the first debate and Trumps behavior afterwards that they need to demand better of him.

He said Trump is losing because of just his constant behavior. He said after Obama's first debate. Dems got on his ass and he was prepared after that. He said Clintons voters pushed her into being a better candidate as well.

Trump's issue is that he goes to safe spaces. Hannity with Fox or crowds that love his rhetoric. Hell he just did a "Town Hall" that might as well have been another rally. His supporters don't demand better from him and Trump being the narcissist that he is thinks everything he does is right.

He is literally the reason Ted Cruz and Donald Trump are a thing.

Why did The Daily Beast hire this guy?

I've never seen a "Socialist" more willing to carry water for Trump than this guy and I've read Glenn Greenwald and Zaid Jilani.
that's an example of carrying water for Trump?

from the thread:
rbe ‏@perdidostschool 9h9 hours ago
@mtracey Quite the contrary - to many in Beltway class, they're a mark of "adulthood".

Roland Fuller ‏@libertyisdead1 9h9 hours ago
@mtracey because those three things make up the "bi-partisan consensus" in Washington DC.

Sandra N. ‏@SandraHelena39 7h7 hours ago
@libertyisdead1 @mtracey true-the bipartisan consensus in DC is casual sociopathic catastrophic violence against thousands of innocent ppl

not seeing the wrong here or anything pro-trump

;)

This fucking weekend will have multiple chapters in the future history books lol.

I love it haha.
 
They know worse is coming. It is incredible to believe that but.. we will see.

Wait until America hears Donald saying Tarzan is the long-lost brother of Anna and Elsa from Frozen. GOP will lose millennials until the next millennium.

Or "PANIC! at the Disco's best album is PRETTY ODD." This will sink the GOP.

C'mon Trump, don't you drop out you.

I will be very surprised if he does. As much of a battering his ego is taking from this, doing so would just be a lethal blow. He's stuck.

And even if he does, there's really no recovery at this point. There's a month left. Ballots are already going out for early voting. Votes are cast.

And then there's Trump's zealots. You really think they'd accept it?

Despite how much of a schmuck Cruz is, the RNC are probably regretting that they silenced the attempted coup at the convention.

"The people" led by a billionaire who shits on a golden toilet...

Checking the wayback machine, he didn't have anything on the schedule after Oct 8th for a while now.

Maggie Haberman of NYT:

"Tremendous support " Trump tells one person inside his lobby in his way back inside.

Carville lol
Several Democrats said they believe Trump will come into Sunday’s town-hall-style debate with the mindset of a “wounded animal” — a factor that could make him more dangerous to Clinton and also to himself.

“I’ve never seen a candidate walk into a debate with this much at stake,” said longtime Clinton ally James Carville. “He’s overweight, he’s old, he’s tired and he’s crabby. And he’s going to have a very long hour and a half.”

i've been begging for over 5 years.
McCain called out Trump's statements about the Central Park 5. I wonder if he knows something is about to drop related to that.

Hmm.. interesting. I think everyone agree's there will be more. You never lead with your biggest bombshell. By the time October is over Trump is going to be a bloodied stump.

Mittens so relieved he was allowed defeat after only 47% and Binders Full of Women. Don is being annihilated down to his core.
 
Scrub-lord Patrick Murphy was finally fed a good campaign message to use against Rubio:

"If you refuse to hold Trump accountable as a candidate, how can you hold him accountable when he's president." It's such a good message you know that 0% of it came from Patrick Murphy's team.

Will this really matter? Isn't Rubio heavily favored to win?
