If by "you guys" you mean some of the the fringe GOP, then that is a valid point. But the way this conversation, and similar conversations elsewhere, have been going, it seems as if folks are asking why this is the final straw for people in general. The truth is, virtually all Democrats and a large number of Republicans have been outraged by Trump's earlier statements about Mexicans, Muslims, women, etc. Enough so that Clinton, entirely rightly, called some of his supporters a basket of deplorables. That has been a pretty high profile piece of news since she said it. So, to suggest there h

You honestly don't see a difference between name calling (being impolite) and describing an action (committing a sex crime)? The difference is not baffling at all.

"Others on social media suggested Drudge go to Florida himself." I agree. Drudge should go Florida himself. He should go Florida himself long and hard.

Well yeah, I guess there's that. Dammit!

Fair enough. I still don't see how a popular vote win for Trump is possible unless something drastic happens.

Is it known to be true that rural voters show up in higher percentages than urban or suburban voters?
-
I don't think that's mathematically plausible. The rural population makes up less than 20% of the electorate.

How do you draw that conclusion?

I'm convinced Nader would have been a non-issue if Gore hadn't chosen such a pathetic running mate in Joe Lieberman.

The scuttlebutt on the street is that Marla Maples is the source of the Trump tax leak. If this is true, that is some ninja level trolling.

It's funny how these folks say they hate political correctness, but conveniently forget how they vilified Bill Maher for making a true, but politically incorrect statement on his TV show, Politically Incorrect. I think that's a pretty good demonstration of how disingenuous their stance is. But ultimately it's a fear response, almost entirely by white men, to the fact that white men don't have 100% control of the highest levels of government anymore. They know their heyday is over for good, and all they can do is throw around racist and sexists insults. But the aim of political correctness

I think what Trump support boils down to is that many people are envious of how much of an asshole he gets to be. And worse, many of them use it as a license to be assholes themselves (we've all seen the videos of this exact phenomenon). We all have people in our lives we'd love to tell to fuck off, and that is pretty much the essence of Trump's personality. So it makes sense that people would find satisfaction in that. Unfortunately, they don't realize that that is exactly the opposite trait that is needed from any world leader.

Is that a real person or are you clowning on Reince Priebus?
-
I said he was, too. I've known quite a few cokeheads. They're the only people I've ever known who constantly sniff like that. How is that possible, considering Obama invented Isis? Clinton has only been an adult for eight years?
-
Anyone know who the Clinton camp used as a stand in for Trump during debate prep?

What a bizarre rationalization. Luckily for the rest of us, nobody gives a steaming pile of dog shit what this clown thinks about politics. At least, I hope they don't.
-
Yeah, it wasn't subtle at all. I saw him say it, and justify his reasoning for it, on TV last weekend. He said something along the lines of "if you're part of a private organization, and you have benefited from the resources that organization provides, how could you then go against promises you made to that organization?"

Yes, the opener was Angelica Garcia. She performed solo and with a keyboardist accompanying her for some songs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkDPtzlZpsQ

Might have been having an off night. They slayed yesterday, Maybe they don't go over well in a festival setting. Most bands don't, imo.

It always makes me think of Ranier Wolfcastle. Wang Dang Sweet Poontang!

They were better than they were when I saw them in 1992, and they were great then. I was not expecting to see a contrabass saxophone on stage. Very ambitious show. Stellar setlist.

I don't know who most of those people are.

Wilco will be on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert 9/21

Nice. I wish the camera had been on Glenn when he hit that spiral slinky thing. -
So, Trump is claiming the debates are rigged against him because the moderator, Lester Holt, is a democrat. Lester Holt has been a registered republican for over a decade. http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2016/09/trump-is-wrong-lester-holt-is-a-republican.html
