HRC to Trump at the dinner tonight:
"Let's focus on what brings us together and rip on Ted Cruz"
 :sabu

Trump earlier in the night:
"Hillary isn't laughing with the rest of us because she was given the jokes before the event by Donna Brazile"

Hillary: "And if Donald does win, it'll be awkward at the annual President's Day photo, when all the former Presidents gather at the White House, and not just with Bill, how is Barack going to get past the Muslim ban?"

Quote
Trump’s attempts to cast doubt on Russian involvement in the hacks aren’t harmless. In fact, they’re helping Vladimir Putin cast doubt on the legitimacy of American democracy itself.
Quote
The press, by signal-boosting these disclosures, makes these accusations more credible to voters who don’t really understand that these disclosures, however problematic, don’t bear on the fundamental fairness of the November election.
Quote
Trump reads reporting on the WikiLeaks disclosures because they make Clinton look bad — he has literally said “I love WikiLeaks” on the stump. He then cites the disclosures as proof that Clinton is fundamentally corrupt and only a corrupt system could elect her.

And then he covers up the fact that the whole thing is a Russian operation aimed to do exactly that, despite the overwhelming evidence to the controversy. This magnifies the damage done by the disclosures, as they’d be easier to dismiss if everyone agreed that it was a Russian plot against America.

He's back just in time for the holidays!

John Kennedy and Foster Campbell lead the field in the race to qualify for the U.S. Senate runoff less than three weeks before Election Day, an independent poll showed Thursday.

But the biggest news from the poll by Raycom Media may be that David Duke scored just high enough to qualify for the final televised debate during the Senate primary, to be held on Nov. 2 at Dillard University in New Orleans.

“That’s amazing,” Duke said when he learned that he will be invited to participate in the debate, which will be held at the historically black university. He said he planned to attend but expressed concerns about security.

“Dillard is pretty supportive of Black Lives Matter, and I’ve been pretty critical of them,” Duke said.
Quote
Kennedy, the Republican state treasurer, had 24.2 percent while Campbell, a Democratic member of the Public Service Commission, received 18.9 percent, in a poll taken for Raycom by Mason-Dixon Polling & Research.

Essentially tied for third place at about 11 percent were Caroline Fayard, a Democratic attorney from New Orleans; U.S. Rep. Charles Boustany, a Republican from Lafayette; and U.S. Rep. John Fleming, a Republican from the northwest Louisiana town of Minden.

..

Duke made the 5 percent debate cutoff, albeit barely with 5.1 percent, but Maness fell short with 3.4 percent.

He's been pretty critical of Black Lives Matter, guys. They might not like that.

“All of these liars will be sued after the election,” Trump claimed, alleging that the 10 women who have so far accused him of unwanted advances came forward “to hurt my campaign.”

The Trump team billed the speech, held in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania in honor of Abraham Lincoln’s address, as an opportunity to lay out his top priorities.

Accusing the media and Clinton campaign of recruiting his accusers to smear his reputation, Trump said the stories of “these liars” were told with “virtually no fact checking whatsoever.”

“We’ll find out about their involvement at a later date through litigation,” Trump charged.

“I’m looking so forward to doing that,” the Republican nominee told the approving crowd.

I see no way that this could possibly backfire!

Holy shit.

I wonder if this means more women will come forward. I mean think about it. On the one hand it must be frightening to hear that, but there's strength in numbers. I can imagine more women will come forward to show support for the women that already came forward.

20 Total accusers by the end of October is my guess. :doge

That or they will stay silent out of fear. If there are more victims, i hope you are right and they come forward.

Gerrymandering is a factor, but so's geography.

Basically Democratic voters are clustered in urban areas where they have huge majorities, so even if the lines were all drawn in completely unbiased ways, there would be more districts which tilted towards the GOP.

Also another reason why voting on the state level actually matters.

Its one of those vague charges that I feel has been around forever and permeates both parties. I see it plenty these day from Trumpkins, but liberals had some wild conspiracies too.

One person's rigging is a more articulate person's gerrymandering and ID laws. Another person's rigging is them saying they think the brown people are secretly voting with dead people's ID's 20 times an election and George Soros is controlling voting machines by having a financial stake in SCYTL.

It's generally been more along the fringes, though. Trump is basically making it a centerpiece of his campaign, in a way that I can't recall any other major candidate doing. And not really in any meaningful way either, like "voter ID laws suppress minority votes, we need to get rid of them to help more people be able to vote" or "gerrymandering takes away power from minority zones, districts should be drawn in a more fair manner", but just "If I lose, the other side cheated." And he pushes it at every opportunity now. It's crazy.

I agree. Its a distinction that separates Trump from any of his modern predecessors. Who have flirted with some of this stuff but never with this level of fervor and conviction.

Yup, politicians generally keep a safe distance from paranoid chain e-mail/Facebook FUD, even if they tacitly benefit from it.

Trump, on the other hand, is your racist uncle who keeps forwarding you crazy shit.
