Well, it's happening, Trump is starting to lose bad in the polls..

[DeadmanWalking]

I am waiting for the point when the Republicans, both party and voter realises they threw away an entire election on Donald Trump.

But really when it comes down to it the Sanders supporters are going to decide this election, they are typically Millenials and Millenials are the largest voting block currently (18-35) and if they decide to vote against Trump or not vote for Hilary will decide who gets to run the Govt for the next 4-8 years. That of course is barring any kind of October Surprise where the candidates skeletons come tumbling out of the closet and the party doesn't have time to spin it and recover to win it.

It is an important election because the next president will get to chose 2 supreme court nominees which will decide if the court leans Republican or Democrat. Unlike the president they sit a life term and will basically decide important laws like gay marraige, legalization of weed, bathroom laws, abortion, ect. Republicans know that if they lose this one they lose the supreme court for at least 20 years and may never recover it.

What the fuck are you talking about? LOL. At this point its pretty much, Every time a *conquered slave posts, Trump gains a follower

What the fuck are you talking about? Social media followers and likes mean ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. They definitely don't mean that Trump is going to win. I have shown you that 64% of his followers on twitter are fake or inactive for 6 months. And you can follow anyone from all over the world. That doesn't mean that Trump is going to win. That just means you think this is a popularity contest with the world. If that were the case, Trump only has Putin and Kim Jong-Un as followers and Hillary has literally everyone else because they don't want fucking crazy in the whitehouse.

It says we can overthrow a tyrannical government. Yet were tried for treason if we try. For example. (Our government is tyrannical btw if you couldn't tell)

No, no you can't. And what is tyrannical about our government?

Which justice you think is gonna die in the next 4/8 years?
Scalia needs to be replaced now.
But it's actually theoretically possible that Obama's suggestion gets approved.
Election is in November. President gets inaugurated in January. Gives 2 month window.
IF the Democrats can snatch the Senate at the election, they can pass Obama's judge.
Since the senators take up their job before the President, that possibility exists.

No, no you can't. And what is tyrannical about our government?

You guys should learn what a decent civil discussion is....
On topic: Polls are crap for the most part. But Trump's comments after the shooting made him look like a bigger ass than normal. The picking of VP is what will decide this race for presidency.

Donald Trump Fans in INDIA Celebrating the "Great Ones" Birthday 2 days ago.

They know a good Maharaja when they see one.

The Japanese love Trump too -

Are we sure that they're not trying to be sarcastic or ironic? Video is hilarious, I am always surprised when the rest of the world shows an interest in US politics.

How come?
The US is the "leader of the free world", and sports some 800 military bases around the globe, I think it's normal (at least for educated people) to pay attention to US politics under those circumstances.

Yeah its actually a satire. I posted it the way I did to perpetuate the humor.

Since 2009 Ginsburg has had 2 seperate cases of cancer, iron deficiency and as of 2014 had a stent placed in the coranary artery due to light headed feeling while doing a work out with a trainer. Her health is failing and is 77 years old, the oldest sitting currently. Democrats asked her to step down while they still held all the power but she refused. She most likely won't be in good health in 8 years at 85.

Not sure if we should speculate on her physical demise though lol

You mean a bigger ass than being the first person in history to comment on the size of his cock at a nominee debate on live television? I'm sorry but nothing Trumps the lows of talking about the size of ones cock in a national debate.

Highly unfavorable basically translates to "I won't vote for you if hell freezes over". Its also very difficult to change someone who really really dislikes you to someone who holds you neutral or favorable.

Yup. If Italy nominates a Trump then it doesn't really matter that much for non-italians. Italy won't be invading Iraq or leading global policy on global warming whatever happens. The same cannot be said of the US.

[Wildtree]

Just heard on CNN that Bush appears to jump to the rescue of some senators who fear for their reelection.
Not to Trump's though. Which makes it also a bit amusing, not one living president endorses Trump.
And if we believe Reagan's son, he wouldn't either.

[DeadmanWalking]

Yeah, that's possible.

It is very real possibility that makes all politicans (regardless of party) bung holes crimp up like a homophobe realizing he walked into a gay bar by accident.

What's there to be nervous about?

Donald Trump might be president, that is something to be terrified about.

Hillary Clinton will probably be president, that is something to be slightly less terrified about.

He was. He still didn't want congratulations.

What was he right about?

[XorMalice]

Never understood how Americans can cope with two years of campaigning.

It's never been this bad before tbh. But as others have said, the answer is to increase your alcohol intake.

Him working on this at this point in a campaign sure points to him tanking on purpose.

Calling an election in June is fundamentally silly. It just means that there's a chance this whole thread will look ludicrous in a few months. There's quotes in here from Nate Silver and friends, all talking about how this election is over, Trump has no chance. But there's also this: https://twitter.com/natesilver538/st...36449424977920 , calling Trump's team "delusional" for a thing that happened less than a month later. His crystal ball doesn't even span 30 days.

Now that the Democrats are turning their efforts on Trump, you will of course see attacks with more punch than when it was Republicans. Hillary's best shot is to portray Trump as being too risky, in addition to the standard claptrap about racism and sexism that they have said about literally every Republican ever. Like most elections, it will come down to competing narratives- one will tell you that the nation is in danger if we leave it in the hands of "the establishment", and the other will tell you that handing the control of the United States over to a reality TV star is perhaps unwise. If I HAD to bet on a winner at this point, I'd easily say Trump- not because of the polls (which consistently favor Hillary) or the models (which consistently favor Hillary), but because Trump is clearly playing by different rules to even be here right now.

[Ripster42]

That looks more like an Anti-Trump video.
.

It's literally impossible to tell the difference. Before the caucus here one of trump's super-pacs was running ads that I at first thought were attack ads against trump.

[Felya]

He was. He still didn't want congratulations.

None of his proposals or commentary on terrorism were remotely targeting this guy. If Trumps proposals were in effect, such as blocking travel for Muslims, the wall, increased surveillance (he was already on the FBI watch list), none of it would help in this case. In fact, you can still go to his site and read his comments about criminals not being "stupid enouph" to buy guns legally.

He not only was gloating, he was taking credit for something that he was not talking about and still denies happens on his policy page. This is the same thing as him taking credit for Obama's reveal of his birth certificate, completley forgetting the fact that he lied about having evidance of his foreign birth.

Trump always saying he is right, doesn't make it so.

I've yet to see a pro-candidate ad where the candidate blows up the planet. lol
And the entire ad plays on the candidates narcissism.
