Secret states. Can't mention them because he's got to secretly get ahead. Need the have secret rallies so no one knows. Swear the attendees to secrecy. Run secret commercials. Beam them to the chips in people's brains.

WTF IS WRONG WITH THIS GUY?!

he's going to be campaigning in states that we haven't even heard of yet!

In a 2008 interview on 60 Minutes, Antonin Scalia said this regarding the 2000 election: "Get over it."

I will, Nino. In ~97 days, I will.

Opening to next Halperin book:

"In a dimly lit booth at the back of an unassuming all-you-can-eat seafood restaurant in Arlington, VA in August 2015 sat high ranking management from CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times, The Washington Post and several other elite national news outlets. The goal of the meeting: give Donald Trump as much media exposure as possible in the upcoming election. The reason: "for the lulz."
 
Repeating for the new thread:

If enough people throw their lot in on this new Never Trump kick, Johnson could hit his 15% (and blow it when any real questions get asked). Trump was always going to lose this year (demographics and turnout make it really hard for any Republican to win), but he may have seriously fucked himself (and his party) this year.

If he wants (and why wouldn't he?), he can turn his base (roughly half of the GOP at least) on the party. Everyone of them primaried or harassed, people who backed Trump in the media running around terrorizing Rs in interviews (I imagine Fox goes through a civil war), etc...

This has been some of the worst campaigning I've ever seen, and it was contained in less than a week!

Today shakes up my entry in that PoliGAF bet so very much. I was playing it real conservative with a 335 electoral college win, now I feel like anything is possible.

So is tomorrow going to be transcript day? Or perhaps we are lucky enough that more prominent Republicans come out against Trump. Take your bets folks what is going to be the controversy tomorrow.

I'd say tomorrow is gonna be about Khan again, Judge Curiel, and more Republicans joining Hillary, hopefully.
 
RUCKER: Would you want her to follow the path that Gretchen Carlson did?

TRUMP: I’d want her to do what makes her happy. I’d want her to do, Phil, what makes her happy. [Trump looks at a nearby television, which was tuned to Fox News.] Oh, did they have another one of these things go down? It’s terrible that crash. Never liked that plane, structurally. I never thought that plane could —

What.

RUCKER: What would you negotiate for? Do you want for example Gary Johnson and Jill Stein?

TRUMP: No because they’re not getting any . . . I’d rather have head to head and right now they’re not getting any numbers. She’s doing better than he is, but right now in some polls she’s actually not doing badly.

Thank god for his ego.
 
I wonder if there is going to be a push by Pubis to get some big name GOP people who the base no longer loves, but the middle doesn't hate, to come out and say "We're not voting for Trump." Not an endorsement of Hillary, but just "We cannot vote for this man."

I'm thinking someone like George HW and Barbara. Mittens too. It's an implied endorsement of Hillary, but they'll never out right say it. Something generic about how "Donald Trump doesn't represent the party, and he is unfit to be President. We will not be voting for him."

It gives your elected people coverage in a few years, but it doesn't risk them having to come out against Cheeto Jesus.
