Already seems like Trump's back tweeting off-message (attacking George Will, saying the polls are skewed) and other shit, so that didn't last too long.
Oh Hillary WAS there

Someone should tell Hillary that Trump is a better friend to the LGBT community.

Twitter comments lovely as always.
EDIT: Also, if you don't follow Hillary on snapchat, follow her on snapchat (hillaryclinton). Her snaps tonight... YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSS QUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN
There's no doubt in my mind that if Senate Republicans continue to obstruct on this - especially after getting shellacked at the polls in November - Dems are going to go nuclear on SCOTUS appointees.
Right now, they're hiding behind "let The People decide!" After November, no mercy.

MSNBC is interviewing Ben Stein as an "expert" on the Brexit.
LOLOLOLOLOL
Trump "scares" Ben Stein and he's not voting for Trump. He's not voting for Hillary either....

I wonder if we could better regulate the filibuster, like, you can protest by talking about gun violence but not reading Dr Seuss
What we really need to kill is gerrymandering, but I guess that's up to SCOTUS
Queen of the gays.
Ben Stein is only an "expert" on "intelligent design"
What a mess.

Pretty sure redistricting is kicking in during the 2022 mid term.
At this point I expect Obama to rescind his nomination so they can't fast track him to prevent someone even more liberal.
Thank you. :>
It'll be interesting to see how party lines shift when (if?) poor white people and more people in general get on board with the situational attribution approach to understanding suffering and recognizing the value in ensuring citizens sustenance needs are met. Granted, this is assuming that increased communication around the world will reduce nationalism and encourage greater tolerance in the future. But I'm still hopeful for the future.

Why is Stein still talking!? He obviously has no idea what he's rambling about. Sad!

Does Britain have dry, red eyes?
Agreed. They are obviously going to push back hard to get the most moderate justice appointed and left unopposed, they'd easily shoot down someone like Goodwin Liu. The Dems need to hit hard and aggressively after November if they sweep to say "The GOP said that the people were going to decide the course of the SCOTUS and they have, so they either need to allow Hillary's picks through in accordance with the will of the voters or we will abolish the filibuster for SCOTUS nominees to allow the people's voice to be heard."

I'm still waiting for someone to explain how Trump is more liberal than Hillary.

The people who think that also think math is a lie and a bird was sen't by Bird Jesus to announce his preference for President.
Ben Stein managed to get a Ferris Bueller reference in.
I think it might have been Kaine until Brexit, honestly.
I know I know, there were a lot of factors that contributed to Brexit that don't exist here in the US. But if there is one thing that Brexit DID prove, it's how powerful the anti-establishment, populist mindset is right now globally. It might actually be a RISK to choose boring, establishment, checks-all-boxes Kaine as the safe choice.
I think candidates that would better serve to energize the base might be getting a second look.

"Queen" is a shitty fucking word to use in that context
When Trump says conservative shit, he's lying. He's really a liberal. That's OK.
When Hillary says liberal shit, she's lying. She's a neocon. Lying, untrustworthy bitch.
My new favorite thing is when people pretend Trump would not be an interventionist or a wackjob on FP. He's both supported and opposed the Iraq War and intervention in Syria. He is just an idiot.
One thing to note if you click through to the Ad Age article.
Trump sent 21 email variants during May, with an 8% spam rate (pretty high).
Hillary send 685 variants during the same time, with a 0% spam rate.
Furthermore, when Obama sent his highest grossing email, it was heavily A/B tested, and pulled in $2.6 million. Trump's email was not tested at all and somehow pulled in "$3.3 million". Color me skeptical. I think this includes matching from Trump and joint party donations.
How can you be excited when you don't get 100% of what you want? It's practically worse than getting 0%.
^ whoops, thread doesn't move as fast on Sunday.

The foreign policy debate will be the most hilarious debate ever.
Especially since I don't think he will even attempt a crash course on FP.

So glad we don't have Bernie. Progress rarely comes from those most likely to claim they're the most progressive.
Glad we don't have podemos or corbyn leading our left.
Obama and Clinton will get more progressive stuff done than these "true socialists" will.
I mean we got most of our progressive stuff done lead by a rich new Yorker in the 40s who used to be wholesale opposed to what he ended up doing.
Leftists don't get politics and that socialist purity tests don't work in general elections

Obama's numbers go up when he's campaigning and when he has a foil. In this case it's Trump.
His numbers are poor when people compare him to the ideal version of him they've created in their heads. Once you introduce the alternative he looks better by comparison.
Wonder if he's the opposite of Hillary who seems to enjoy massive popularity once she's actually in office doing stuff. And I hope that holds true for her presidency as well.

Looks like both were run during their GE polls, so that makes more sense.

Proving, yet again, that gay men are superior.
Me and my girls are on the way to cut you up.
Got into a debate with a friend about how to label Trump's anti-immigration stance. Obviously we use terms like bigot or ethno-nationalist. The problem is there doesn't seem to be a specific term for someone who wants to close borders from immigrant inflow? Isolationism would seem to be perfect but instead we use it for foreign policy, typically as a shortcut for anti-interventionism.
I know it doesn't matter, but I wish there was a better, more succinct term for this anti-immigrant migration sentiment we see going on. Am I missing a term for this anyone can think of?

I'm sorry, but, as a gay man, I just don't get distracted by secondary sex characteristics. Imagine if I was constantly a thirsty mess over guys with facial hair, or a sexy, deep voice with muscle bulging....and that adorable bit of gold some guys get in their eyes.... Or ....

OH my GOD.
True story: When I was 3, I knew the theme song to Golden Girls. I would sing it while playing with my toy vacuum cleaner and wearing an apron. I wore out two pretend vacuum cleaners in 6 months. (Sometimes you didn't need to even ask....)
When we went to MGM/Disney's Hollywood Studios for the first time, they had the Golden Girl house on the backlot tour. I cried like I was returning to the mother ship. Golden Girls is my JAM. Well, that and Designing Women. (I'm a Dorothy and a Julia...)
