These fucking people...
BTW, anyone have a feeling that in october some people like Collin Powell and Condi Rice might endorse Hillary?
With the former, there is no doubt he is voting for her and he endorsed Obama. It would be a good look if them and a few others came out.
Trump being in charge of our military must be scaring them shitless.

I do think Bernie was seeing himself up there and the speech he would've given. That's fine. Losing sucks.

Oh fuck.
Manafort might get rejected for security clearance. Holy. Shit.
I don't think there are direct links between Putin and Trump. I do think that Putin favors and is trying to help Trump. I think Trump likes Russia because they stroke his ego and loan him cash money when US banks wont.
But Manafort is this big questionable hire because of his connections to the Russians and the Russians backed in the Ukraine. I don't think Manafort is working for the Russians mind you, but the ties he has are not a good look.
BUT. BUT. Manafort probably can't get security clearance because of his ties to anti-Western leadership in the Balkins. Which is going to send up a god damned flashing alarm to middle America. Why does this guys camapaign manager not pass US security clearance? Oh shit, Putin? Didn't they hack the DNC? Didn't trump as them to hack Hillary? Didn't he say we shouldn't back NATO? Didn't he say we should lift sanctions and gift them Crimea?
It's going to allow a lot of people to draw some connections that Trump really ought not want drawn.
I could see Manafort being dumped if they get wind he won't pass security clearance to avoid just that.
Dudes. I'm going to be 25 feet from Hillary.
a lot of people there?

By November, Hillary's team will have enough material on hand to run ads that will actually convince Republican voters that Trump is actually a joke character and that he's doing this simply to see how far he can go, driven by the contempt he has for the average joe. I think if you really run with that line of attack, it can be devastating. There is nothing his voters would be afraid more of than the possibility that any minute now Trump will come out and announce it was a big joke, utterly humiliating them. It would work.

Hillary asks what he just said, Trump says "you know what I said", and Hillary responds with "No I insist you elaborate what you said since apparently it was important enough to say in a televised presidential debate".
Later that night, Trump hears a loud banging on his door. He opens it to Rience Priebus. Rience Priebus barges in.
Rience (screaming): "What the fuck did you just do tonight!?! How the fuck did you manage to fuck this up for me so fucking much!?!"
Trump: "Hey! I'm the republican presidential nominee. Who are you to tell me what to do?"
Suddenly Rience punches Trump square in the jaw and screams "I am the owner of this fucking party!!"
Two days later, Trump appears for a press conference. During the Q&A, an observant reporter asks Trump why he has a big bruise on his left cheek. Trump flinches at the reminder of what had happened, then regains his composure so he can answer the question:
Trump: "You want to know what happened? Something great! Something Huge! I can't confirm what happened, but something was going on. Something was going on and now it's going to be great! Believe me!"
Trump then loses his composure and slowly breaks down into tears as he repeats himself: "Believe me! Believe me. Believe me.....please believe me....PLEASE BELIEVE ME!!!"
The staging area is already full and lined up way down the street and it doesn't even start until 830. Big hold up at security.
Dump Manafort to avoid being linked to Russia, or avoid having a likely shittier campaign manager. Wonderful dilemma to have.
It honestly blew my mind when he mentioned it. It's something that I would never even think of. It may not just be Manafort either they mentioned someone else with ties to Russia in Trumps campaign, but I couldn't remember who. Although, I may be mixing what I have been reading and just connecting the dots. When he started talking about security clearances the light bulb went off in my head. Shit is just crazy. Who is the Trump camp could smell the trouble of him failing the security clearance though? I doubt they have anyone who is savvy enough to see just how catastrophic that would look. Right now they believe he can dodge and deflect anything. It's also the first time I have even heard anyone mention this. This seems like something that could easily sneak up on a campaign that just isn't run well.
Yeah security was slow when I saw her in Sacramento too.
Black Mamba posted it a little earlier, 34.1 million for Trump vs. 33.9 million for Hillary. Almost even
Manafort can probably see the issue creeping in, but he won't dare spin himself negatively. Literally the campaign manager. It's now about his own survival, not Trump's. This is fantastic.

If he's not part of the group that gets the debriefs, he doesn't have to pass a security clearance. It's not mandatory for the campaign manager to go to these debriefs.
This is a terrible idea imo and one completely counter to the Democrats' current message (as stated explicitly by Hillary) that we must defeat Trump precisely because he means what he says. Making him into a joke character gives permission for people to vote for him because they don't think he really means it.

It wasn't emails stolen, just some analytics, so we don't need to panic about some stupid "October surprise"
I don't think Clinton camp is stupid enough to write down anything terribly damaging regardless. We've seen the mundane crap they write about in the state dept emails

The optics of Trump asking them to hack her and then them hacking her are going to look terrible.
For Trump, I mean. It's going to fuel conspiracy theories, whether there's Russian connections to his campaign or not.

Trump's running mate is upset with Obama: 'I don't think name calling has any place in public life'

No words. The Onion should just fucking give up.

Listening to Keepin' It 1600, Favs and Pfeiffer heard that Donald has NOT engaged with the Clinton campaign about the debates and there's a thought that maybe he won't agree to them.

Lmfaooo. I think he'll end up doing them but it would be hilarious if he didn't.

If you told me a few years ago Republicans would be cheering on Russia using cyber crime to subvert our democratic process, I'd have thought you were crazy. Republicans? Encouraging Russia?
Some of the posts I'm seeing from Donald supporters are just weird. Actively cheering for them to continue this and release everything.

If he refuses debates, it's over. No tax releases, no debates...he'd be done.

I could see Trump only agreeing to one debate, but I don't believe he'll refuse to debate at all.

Can I get a source on this, Black Mamba? That'd be awesome.
I was thinking maybe he'd do this hoping to recreate the outcome of the first Romney / Obama debate, but then I had to remind myself that he was more than likely not paying any real attention to politics at this point and even if he was, he isn't smart enough to come up with a strategy so basic and dumb in the first place.
I didn't mean to imply that there's a snowball's chance in Hell of him actually besting Clinton in the first debate, I was implying that he's delusional enough to think so and might think/be convinced it's the kind of Hail Mary play he needs once he's (hopefully) behind 5+ points again next month.
