I am still in awe of today. I cannot believe what happened actually happened. It's just beyond comprehension.

I'm also pissed. Because, the GOP doesn't give a shit if you attack immigrants, Muslims, or women of color. They only care if you attack white women....and only if it means you cannot win. And this is not okay!

Of course, I'm not going to look an orange turd in the mouth, because he'll probably spit Tic Tacs on me or whatever. But, seriously, ridiculous.

they don't care about white women either. See women's health/choice, victim blaming, lack of backing domestic violence laws, slut shaming etc. They cared that he got caught saying naughty words and is going to lose.

None of the people abandoning him have some suddden moral clarity on sexual assault.

That SNL opening was a little weak after doing pretty great last week, but this is so insane they basically can't be funnier than real life.

Keep in mind: the GOP focus grouped Trump bringing up Bill's infidelities to attack Hillary, and it was a complete disaster. If they're seriously doing this, we're in landslide territory.

Nice stuff from Alec. His Trump is growing on me. But Atamaniuk is easily the winner of Trump impressions. No one pulls off the stream of bullshit that comes out of the man's mouth along with the facial expressions and gestures better than him.

Also, a huge LOL at the GOP fantasizing about Pence dropping out, that move inexplicably somehow forcing Trump to drop, and then Pence coming back in.

In what universe would Trump do that? Why wouldn't he just bring on a new VP?

Exactly and knowing Trump he'd actually love for this to happen. Him being on the ticketby himself? Oh man he'd play that up

The fantasy is actually more complicated! It's that Trump drops out and they convince voters that all the votes are actually going to Pence and then a mass faithless elector event occurs in favor of Pence.

He's got plenty of surrogates who would take the spot right now.

Just realized Jon Huntsman endorsed Trump last week. I didn't agree with Jon on everything, but really thought he was one of the good ones in the party. Very disappointing. :(

I agree. I respected huntsman and thought he could be the strongest off all replican candidates. I was bummed when I heard he endorsed.

I think Trump would just make one of his kids VP if Pence dropped.

At some point I'm sure Trump will realize that he could single-handedly destroy the GOP, if he hasn't already. That mess in Wisconsin probably gave him the biggest shit-eating grin. If I'm Trump I start getting my supporters to start heckling GOPers that have "betrayed me" and just spend the next month living off the high of watching my little minions destroy my enemies.

So, I really don't get the panic. Because, Trump won't quit. They can't replace him. He can only make an ass of himself tomorrow. She can take the high ground. The gender gap is going to explode. We're going to take the Senate. And, like, get damn close to the House too. We got this fam. We gonna do great things.

Pence is coming to Charlotte on Monday. Not sure why.

Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, the Republican vice presidential nominee, will hold a rally in Charlotte at 1 p.m. Monday, the campaign announced Saturday evening.

Pence will speak at centerstage@noda, 2315 N Davidson St. Doors open at 10 a.m.

Pence’s Charlotte visit comes as presidential nominee Donald Trump comes under widespread criticism from party leaders following the release of a video showing him speaking about women in vulgar sexual terms. It also will follow Sunday’s widely anticipated second debate between Trump and Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.

Remember when Kevin McCarthy came out to say he wasn't going to run for Speaker and there were reports of Republicans crying in the broom closets because they didn't know what was happening? I wonder what's going on at the RNC right now.

Just the thought of some of the shittier bigoted republicans slipping off into a quiet room to cry is giving me a PoliBoner
