got my prelim vote

and a rapist known as free doom.

First I've heard of his lobbyist....From what the man is saying he doesn't need or want lobbyist. If this were true the media would be all over it calling his bluff as I just did yours.

Thanks for the laugh, but I obviously don't "bluff" about anything. You shouldn't expect "the media" to be a watchdog either; networks are too busy giving his campaign free publicity to torch his hypocrisy. Jon Anderson and Mike Ciletti are both lobbyists and they're both running one of his Super PACs (kills two lies with one stone, really). You could actually kill a third lie with the same stone when you consider that he attended one of their fundraisers.

Do you mean the nomination or the general election? Because the answer would be really different. If he won the nomination I'd be overjoyed as it'd likely juice short-term Democratic gains next year. But if he won the general election then I'd laugh maniacally, as it'd cripple the Republicans in Congress and the states on account of the ramifications for 2018 and 2020.

The 2018 Senate map is tilted heavily towards the Republicans due to the class and terrain that's up. The Democrats could use the significant boost that comes from running as the out-party in a midterm. Most of the key governorships are up that year too and most would be open races, and the party would take most of them if Trump was president. That alone would break half of the Republican gerrymanders in time for the next remap, and if the party was able to run against Trump in 2020 then that'd win them a ton of legislature races that'd help them draw their own maps.

A Donald Trump win in November 2016 would unequivocally be one of the greatest things that could happen to the modern Democratic party. The only downside would be if he made SCOTUS appointments in the mold of his fringe personality, and I'm not so sure that would happen. I actually think that, if Trump won the nomination, he'd ditch the racist and xenophobic blathering quickly since he knows it's a GE loser.

MotherJones did some digging and, as usual for those guys, hit the jackpot. Now they're playing a fun game of "Trump then vs. Trump now."

He couldn't have just left well enough alone. He couldn't just take his time and prosecute the failed war against his actual opponent now; he tried to extend it to Obama and he ends up looking like a fool.

Yay cant wait for Kanye to be pres. He fits the bill as a massive hypocrite. Constantly referring to the general public as slaves to brands and victims of a tyrannical system that has re-enslaved the poor through consumerism of clothing brands, while simultaneously owning a clothing line that charges 50$ for a teeshirt.

David Duke and the KKK are fully endorsing Trump and his Fascist party

It was a tough call between him and Bernito Mussolini.
