My condolences.

I love Berkeley

Berkeley is amazing. A certain subset of students are super eh tho. And that includes our spineless college repubs who "haven't endorsed trump as an organization" but are oh so eager to fly his banner and wear his hats when tabling every day.

It's fitting I guess. They've got the integrity to match their idols.

"Wouldn't you rather have Japan have nuclear weapons" is one of his statements that gets my blood boiling the most. Out of touch and incompetent.

And then the reporter looks like an elitist bad guy to them because he knows facts =/

"See how the biased media is against us?!"

 

[Boke1879]

So I guess we will get another facebook video prior to the debate by Trump.

Because that worked so well for Trump the first time.

She's on AC360 towing the rigged elections line and hidden voters for her boss.

I don't have cable, but I finally broke down and used my parent's login info to get the CNN app on our Roku. That bit with the Trump supporters in Colorado was fantastic, I died when they cut to the footage of Reagan campaigning for Bush.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Jesus how many more threads on that o'queef video are we going to get.

At least 20.

Hey, Trump said if it was on the internet it was true.

Just posting this again because it needs to be seen. Lawrence O'Donnell made the absolute best case for this. Trump cannot be allowed to be the one deciding if nukes should be launched.

prior to the 2nd debate (like a 1hr before) he posted a video on Facebook meeting with the Clinton accusers and have the press there to take pictures.

Sorry, I meant why would we be getting a new video.

I read the responses...the internet was a terrible idea. Or, Trump supporters should not be allowed to vote before going through extreme vetting wherein they need to learn something more than what Trump and Breitbart and its ilk state.

One of the things Hillary and Obama both immediately go to when Trump comes up is his unfitness for office. Hillary wasn't joking at all in that interview earlier when she said she was the only thing standing in the way of the apocalypse.

Based on his potential debate guests, there's going to be some sort of scene caused.

That pile of orange lard dragged Bill's accusers to the last debate and nothing happened; do you really think the secret service is gonna let these show guests go in without a warning not to cause a stir? They're going to put the fear of God in all of Trump's guests and there won't be a peep out of any of them - mark my words on this one.

 

[smurfx]

You know, I'm sure that Clinton did research and that there is more shit on Trump that exists, but it's always been my impression that the campaign literally holding oppo bombs and only releasing them at ideal moments seem a little less than realistic. It's far more likely that that just happened to be the time that the media got the 'grab them by the pussy' video and it just coincided with the second debate. Like, do we have any actual proof that the Clinton campaign is playing this kind of massive game? That these are things that the media couldn't have just figured out itself?

Though if another scandal is dropped 3-5 hours before the third debate, I guess even I'll have to suspect that they are just that master strategists.

imo the perfect time to drop the next oppo bomb is after the debate and not before. if trump manages to do better than last time then the drop will shut down any positives. if hillary does really well then they allow the week to be focused on her win and then the week after you drop it and let trump sink until the election.

 

[HylianTom]

I invite a disruption.

It'll only add to the #1 drag on his candidacy: widespread perception that he doesn't have the temperament for the office.

You're right, I meant before. He might do another Facebook Live thing or trick the dishonest media or something to that effect.

 

[Wilsongt]

Pretty disgusting they are rolling out that Benghazi mother again. Woman was clearly not fit to be speaking at the RNC. There is no way she should be out in public for publicity again.

 

[Fat4all]

How does Trump not know that constantly bringing up how the election is 'rigged' against him, he's actively limiting potential voter turnout for him? If he keeps it up his voter confidence is gonna be god awful. It also fucks over the rest of the GOP'ers running.

So you are saying Hillary is cancelling the apocalypse?

Pentecost would be proud.

 

[Plinko]

i'm guessing one of the surprise guests would be bill clinton's alleged illegitimate black son

in other news, nate cohn is getting frustrated with people about doubting polls

This makes me a little concerned about groups hacking the vote. They seem a little too confident.

so basically just move along?

 

[Beer Monkey]

Lawrence O'Donnell doing real journalism right now on Melania and the Billy tape.

And calling CNN and Fox out for doing softball interviews with Melania.

 

[Battlechili]

CNN is livestreaming an interview with Gary Johnson right now in Las Vegas. Its a surprisingly interesting and informative interview. Really wish it was being aired on television. I can't seem to find the livestream anywhere but on CNN's Facebook page at the moment either, which is kind of odd.

EDIT: And it just ended. Darn.

I mean they're clearly not self-deluded so yeah it's probably hacking.

That "change election" number is the big news here.

 

[TheLaughingStock]

I'm going to watch the debate but not looking forward to it at all. I'm expecting a "you lie" moment from the Benghazi mom and lots of whooping and hollering from the deplorables.

We already got that moment the other day: http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-m...n-twists-trumps-words-rescuing-auto-industry/

 

[SexyFish]

The immigration one was what surprised me. I didn't realize it was that unfavorable.

 

[Debirudog]

it's a good sign when the losing opponent keeps yelling, "rigged!" despite all the evidence to contrary. DGAF Obama said it best: Stop fucking whining.

 

[Plinko]

Oh, this is a huge factor, too, no doubt. No doubt in my mind. Even so.

This always gets glossed over, because 'The Wall, ZOMG!!' but that number has been pretty consistent all year. No one believes the wall talk, or that we're gonna round up millions of people. Except for the Internet Nazis, but they're gullible

 

[Nazgul_Hunter]

Literally every campaign will say they're 120% confident they'll win. Wtf.

There isn't anyone on Twitter more full of shit than Bill Mitchell

 

[kess]

Funny, I just realized that if Bayh manages to pull this one out, Indiana will have two Democratic senators for the first time since the early 70s. Not bad for what is considered a stronghold of Republicanism.

I met the smartest people I know, and some of the dumbest I have ever met at Berkeley. It's weird.

Also the most conservative people I have ever met, I met in Berkeley. It's like people seek it out just to run counter to the perceived stereotypes.

Missouri and Indiana might have 2 Democratic senators while Iowa has 2 Republicans. Nuts.

I also think they're deluded. I mean, Romney's team fell for unskewed polling, and Trump's team is way worse.

 

[Bowdz]

Missouri and Indiana might have 2 Democratic senators while Iowa has 2 Republicans. Nuts.

It's pretty crazy. IN and MO might also have Democratic governors as well.

I think it highlights a bipartisan issue: both parties need to make sure they have a robust bench of candidates at every level even in States that are reliably R or D at the presidential level. It happened in MA during the 2010 runoff and in 2014 with the gubernatorial election, it happened in MI with Rick Snyder, and it might happen in NC. I hope part of Obama and Holder's redistricting effort is helping to fill out the bench in every state to ensure that the Democratic party can always put up competent candidates even during midterms.
