Its a quiet exit. By not openly denouncing Trump he holds on to votes in states where seats for house/senate are looking shaky.

If by contrast he came out and denounced Trump openly he could be damning his candidates in their own states.

It's a gutless move but politically sound.

I think it's also a talking point moving forward for Ryan, he can say he held the party together to "hold onto X# of seats" while simultaneously saying "we sent a message to the Trump campaign that enough was enough."

The interesting thing will be to see if Trump lets Ryan go semi-quietly. Ryan might have just started a war, if Trump is thinking of running a breitbart-esque media empire post election he could actually make MORE money by tearing the GOP apart. And now Ryan has given him pretext to do so publicly.

I qualified it as rumors, not fact

Hillary Clinton's campaign was in contact with the Department of Justice during the investigation into her use of a private email server.

Trump supporters will call it treason, and Hillary Clinton supporters will more than certainly blow it off, but this is an extremely bad look for our Federal Government.

Ben Carson thinks “the problem” with all of the anger over Donald Trump’s sexual comments in a 2005 video is that people just haven’t heard that kind of talk enough.

“As I was growing up, people were always trying to talk about their sexual conquests,” Carson said on CNN Tuesday. “And trying to make themselves appear you know like the Don Casanova. I’m surprised you haven’t heard that, I really am.”

"I haven't heard it, and I know a lot of people who have not heard it. And I think they were shocked —," CNN host Brianna Keilar said.

“Maybe that’s the problem,” Carson responded. “Maybe that’s the problem, you know, people have not heard this.”


Carson did call the comments "abominable" and said there was "no excuse," but he said it's time to move forward.

The video, which was released last week, had audio of Trump discussing women in lewd terms and saying that he could do anything because he was famous.

It has sent the Republican Party into a tailspin, and dozens of officials have pulled support. On Tuesday, Trump lashed out at the Republican establishment, including House Speaker Paul Ryan, who has said he won’t defend or campaign for the GOP nominee.

I mean, I think that I'm pretty smart, coz I am.


Please elaborate. Just curious as to how you quantify this. Any test scores you would like to share?

Not really? I mean, I'm not even talking about some quantifiable amount here, so it's not like I particularly feel that I have anything to prove in this arena. I mean, I used to score in the 90-95th percentile on most of my standardized tests in school, at least, but I don't honestly think that's such a great measure of intelligence anyway.

I mean, you're free to disagree with me if you'd like, but I at least operate under the impression that I'm pretty smart, and it hasn't particularly failed me or made me look like too much of an ass so far, near as I can tell. I suppose it's entirely possible that I'm just stuck in a Dunning-Kruger delusion and I'm actually a complete idiot, but if that's the case, I've also managed to get very unlucky and had a lot of complete idiots around me to validate my self-assessment. :(
