It wouldn't be a caliphate, it would look a lot like Egypt now.


Egypt had a mostly secular military to keep the muslim brotherhood in check, like what turkey had before erdogan executed order 66. It was also not a backwards third world pisspot

The opposition to assad was extremely radicalized sunni foreign fighters streaming across the border to fight a holy war. Its the biggest sectarian shitshow in modern history since uganda

It doesnt take nostradamus to tell where that was headed

Not been a good day for Trump: first the news broke that Reince threatened him last week to turn the campaign around or the RNC would triage him. Then it was reported that 70 former Republicans, including a former Senator, 3 former Reps. and 20 former members of the RNC, are circulating an open letter to the RNC to ASK THEM to triage him. Then news broke that a former staffer is suing because Trump's NC director pointed a loaded gun at both the plaintiff AND another staffer, and when his superior was told he was neither suspended or fired. Oh, and the Kennedy family, Ronald Reagan's daughter, and Martin Luther King Jr's daughter all excoriated him for the stupid "second amendment" comments.

Not a good look.

Just to be clear, no one is impersonating you on match.com as far as i know.

I figured your income was variable based on who wins and loses on the campaigns you work on. That's one field doing it right, criminal trial lawyers should join that trend.


No of course not, I knew you were kidding and was just playing along. I mean someone could be impersonating me on match.com for all I know, I wouldn't blame them if they were. I would be a little creeped out though.

"Amplified" is probably the best way to put it, what those campaign contracts do to my income. It's somewhat variable. Because my friends and I founded our firm I take a base salary as there's plenty of things not related to the current cycle that I do, then there's everything related to current cycle that augments it. Some of those contracts are really simple, like if a campaign rents something from us then they're paying me every month regardless if they win or lose, and others are more complicated and involve their performance (especially vs. expectation).

How do you win a national election without winning with Blacks, Hispanics, or women?

There aren't enough White Christian voters for Donald Trump to win in November.

That said, even if Hillary wins by a whopping 15 points (56% Clinton, 41% Trump, 2% Johnson, 1% Stein, for example), the fact that Donald will probably get over 40% of the vote is insane.

It would be a crushing defeat but still disturbing in that over 40% of the American people think that Donald Trump was the best option for the next president of the United States

The Left could make fun of Trump losing really badly all they want, but that's still a shit ton of votes for a demagogue who never really had the full backing of the GOP establishment, ran an awful campaign, and couldn't get out his own way.

Their year-over-year strategy is a simple, cynical one: discourage, discourage, discourage, then hope like hell their base shows up while their voter suppression efforts keep Democratic-leaning demographics from voting.

I don't think there's any chance that Gary Johnson performs worse this year than he did in 2012. I think Stein is a lock for only 1% (she's only going to be on the ballot in ~25 states, one of the reasons she's way overpolling) but I think Johnson is easily capable of 3% or more. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see a 53%-40%-5.5%-1% result if Clinton keeps the pressure on and Trump either keeps trying to weasel out of the debates or shows up and bombs anyway.
