My mom is a white super moderate liberal who says Paul Ryan, Mitt Romney, and John McCain are really nice men
She's terrified of Trump and super worried. I think most rational non-tea party people are pretty nervous

I think a big part of it is because like, most rational people know the only two options are Trump and Hillary. So, ya, compared to Trump? She's a god damn saint. I think her numbers took a hit because of the email issue but also because she was running against a newcomer (Bernie) who was mostly well liked, and managed to drive up her negatives pretty well. I'm not saying he did it intentionally, mind you. Just that it was the natural reaction to the way he presented his campaign. (What with the rigged like such as.)
If anything, you should start charging the mouse for rent and food costs.
And yet his support only ticked down by 1% after all that.
51-44 amongst LVs, pretty good.
Just to be clear, when people were getting concerned with those Trump + Ivanka photos, they weren't doing so in isolation. Those pictures & gifs are creepy not just because they are unusual expressions of personal space and body language between father and daughter but because Trump has also said MULTIPLE times in different ways he'd want to bang his daughter. I guess you just saw that linked video for the first time but its old news to me and other people.
Where is Tarkus to tell us how good a man Rubio is?

Rubio being extreme on abortion is par for the course.
More than a couple of his surrogates sure as hell did.
No seriously, what the fuck is Trump trying to say here? "What's your favorite thing you have in common with your daughter?" He answers "sex" so is he trying to say they both like sex? That they have sex in common? What does that mean?

The left is a bunch of interests meshed together and not always aligning perfectly. Like the right. Because that's how the system is. It requires compromise and coalition.
"The left" marred by anti-empiricism, edgy contrarianism, myopic purity focus and/or oppression Olympics towards the issues that they think matter the most is another matter.
The left is annoying. And will go away for another four years as they most likely skip any election that isn't Presidential.

I just made a joke about this to my friends. They didn't find it funny...
Also this made me laugh

The left is a mess
My Trumpese isn't perfect, but I think it roughly translates into "Well, I would say sex, but she's my daughter. I mean, look at her. Am I right, fellas?"
Not sure if that helps your confusion.

This bothers me more than it should. I cannot stand putting precooked or meats that don't need to be cooked (ie hotdogs) on the same platter as completely raw meat. Like, ya, you're going to cook them anyway, but still. Don't do that.
As gross and likely as that is, it's also not even an answer to the question the host asked which I guess is par for the course for Trump.

Kebabs? How unamerican!
The 'f-you Obama' outta nowhere made me laugh.
Nice, so Clinton has done a better job consolidating her party.
In fact, Trump's convention actually made his numbers worse with the NeverTrump crowd
I wanna see the post-Khan nevertrump numbers.

This would be post-Khan or at least current-Khan. It was in the field Monday-Thursday.

That's what made the tweet. likes he's having a cook out and has this feeling that something is missing. And he realizes what it is. "Fuck Obama"

Libertarianism believes in nightmarish policies.

3rd party candidates are not worth the effort.

The responses make more sense within that context. Thanks for clarifying.
For me personally, Libertarians bug the shit out of me. It's a bogus idea that the free market can solve all problems. It's great if if you are a straight, white, middle class male, otherwise you are on your own.

Exactly. Though as I understand it, Gary Johnson is only half libertarian (he supports safeguards that would protect minorities from a truly free market).

This. They usually just use emotional language to hide it (what, you don't want economic and social freedom?), but it still amounts to a free market hellscape.
Gary Johnson is what you would call a "moderate" if you can even fit that into the libertarian ideology.
One of the things his rivals used against him is that he actually believes we should still require people to get drivers licenses to drive cars.

Looking at these polls, I kind of wish it happened in a situation where the Democratic candidate didn't have favorability issues
Also what's up with Vermin Supreme? I went into stuff about him expecting him to be like, a hyper-libertarian, and yet he apparently wants to mandate tooth brushing?

Tlds; Trump says Ivanka has a very nice figure and mentions that he's said if Ivanka weren't his daughter that perhaps he'd be dating her. Ivanka's laugh could be read as feeling uncomfortable
There's also the butt patt he did with her at the RNC

He also wants to use tax payer money to buy a pony for every single american.

Lawdy this gif from OT of Billiam is perfect, can't tell where it loops
Honestly, Vermin Supreme is just a crazy person who wears a boot on his head.
It's funny because about half the party hates Johnson despite him being about the only thing lending credibility to the party. If it weren't for him they'd be worse than the Greens.

Is it weird that my first thought is "this doesn't sound like a libertarian candidate" and not "a candidate wants to mandate toothbrush use and pony ownership"
For me, Vermin Supreme and Newt Gingrich will forever be inextricably linked through auto-tuned news clips, pony pledges, and cash money.

At this point someone needs to make a thread. There's something going on.

This is actually worse than I thought. Straight to the point, for the doubters.

...Yikes.
I... I almost kind of want a Super PAC (obviously not Hillary herself due to the optics of one candidate attacking the other so personally like that) to compile all this stuff into an anti-Trump ad to completely finish him off. It would be really dirty pool to go that kind of angle, but this is the type of thing that no one would be able to defend. It's also the kind of attack ad Republicans wouldn't hesitate for a second to make if Trump were a Democrat precisely because of how devastating that kind of character attack is. Of course, because it's dirty pool, I know it's not going to happen, but if that stuff were broadcast all over the country I'd be curious just how effective it would be and just how low his numbers would go.
