Ron Paul on MSNBC says Gary Johnson isn't a true libertarian, will likely vote for Jill Stein instead.

A reminder that drone strikes are only surgical compared to carpet bombing - other people (okay, including friends of friends of mine) work in the Ecuadorean Embassy so I'd rather not.

In other news, Trump's 5-D chess set still missing some pieces.

is it wrong to feel sort of uncomfortable wrt all of the lol-ing and/or concern trolling over creepy things Trump has said about Ivanka? it seems kind of like Ivanka is collateral damage when ppl use this stuff to attack her father?

soref, Monday, 3 October 2016 19:01 (seven years ago) link

I imagine she's p damaged alright

She's collateral damage in the human shield sense.

Re: Trump's PA speech, I guess I can see where it might have utility when speaking in front of a national audience, but why tf, at this point, would Trump invoke Bernie over and over at his rallies? Am I making that mistake of thinking that anything resembling rational decision making is informing Trump's perpetual id-gasm?

I imagine he was trying to capitalize on that "bombshell" audio of Clinton trying to figure out how to reach Sanders voters, but he can't concentrate for more than a few seconds so he lost the plot and just resorted to his standard tactic of calling Sanders a loser.

Cumstaun (Phil D.), Monday, 3 October 2016 19:33 (seven years ago) link

that 'bombshell' was nothing, if you listened to the audio she's clearly sympathetic to people? who the fuck actually thought it was some kind of condemnation? GOP desperate and grasping for straws

meanwhile I can't even keep up with the bad things happening to trump lately. ptsd, foundation, taxes

I love how he's getting his debate prep from Giuliani and Christie, two losers who will do him absolutely no good

Οὖτις, Monday, 3 October 2016 19:38 (seven years ago) link

I wonder what will happen to those closest to him if Trump loses

Evan, Monday, 3 October 2016 19:44 (seven years ago) link

It's amusing how one minute, Trmp'll be courting disaffected Sanders voters - "We feel your pain, we know she's crooked and everything is rigged; come over to the dark side" - and the next minute he's calling them pathetic losers who live in their parents' basements.

The dude evidently has no interest in courting voters who aren't already in his column, and no idea that that might have something to do with winning this here "election" thingy. It is weird and wonderful to see.

Everybody's telling me I need to do better with women. So clearly what I need is more tweets reiterating that Alicia Machado was REALLY a porker, I mean oink oink, seriously. Plus, Rosie O'Donnell? Bette Midler? Carly Fiorina? Yeah, total woofers. They had it coming, surely everyone agrees.

The headline characterizations of Hillary's remarks (which were uniformly negative) is likely the only thing a lot of people saw, esp if they're inclined to hate her.

Kiarostami bag (milo z), Monday, 3 October 2016 19:52 (seven years ago) link

imo the ptsd comment seems...not particularly bad. esp taken in context. maybe a little clumsy, and demonstrating a lack of understanding of PTSD, but it didn't seem disrespectful

I think he was accused of using this as a pick up line verbatim back at the Fox offices

Evan, Monday, 3 October 2016 19:52 (seven years ago) link

The "basement dweller" thing isn't about actually convincing Sanders die hards to vote for Trumo as much as just suppress potential votes for Hlllary. The only people I've seen view the leaked audio as anything other than sympathetic are right wing creeps and some of the more aggressively idiotic Stein supporters.

Nerdstrom Poindexter, Monday, 3 October 2016 19:53 (seven years ago) link

like, it wasn't even remotely close to the comments he made about john mccain, which remain the gold standard for insulting combat veterans

i'm not a Stein 'supporter' but shove it, you voting with the Bushes and Kissinger on yr moral high ground.

how do you reconcile Hil's 'empathy' -- sounds to me more like 'the poor misguided dears' -- with Bill Clinton's memorable springtime sneer, "Shoot every third person on Wall Street, things will be fine"? Don't these partners think alike?

it's hit or miss, def, and also weirdly insists on humanizing ppl like boehner and chris fucking christie (which, lol), but the ratio of hits to misses is ultimately favorable imo

you voting with the Bushes and Kissinger on yr moral high ground.

So far from claiming the moral high ground, most here are simply claiming HRC represents a higher and drier part of the swamp than Donald occupies.
