Feather posted:Yes, words mean things. In this case, "accurately" doesn't mean "precisely." That picture depicts a choice between two equally bad options. Your words indicate that one option (Jeb as opposed to Hillary) is significantly worse than the other. So it doesn't accurately depict the situation at all. I'm sorry, but you're wrong. you're wrong, and South Park political comparisons turn me into an anal weirdo.

Hahaha Just for context, this is part of a twitter tantrum Donald Trump threw today whining that Neil Young called him out for using one of his songs during Trump's announcement. I was worried Trump would tone it down on Twitter once he announced but he hasn't and his handle should be added to the OP of the USPol thread for people who Love 2 Laff

Majestic posted:I've been thinking about this for a while now, but I can't shake the feeling that Rubio may end up as the nominee. While Republican memories might have softened on GWB, I think Bush is still tied too closely to a very unpopular president, and so far his campaign has not appeared particularly competent. I think Walker is just not ready for the national stage, and this will become apparent as time goes on. He's legitimately not bright enough, even in the Republican field. In addition to having too much overlap with Bush as far as donors and voters goes, I don't think Rubio is ready yet. He's not Scott Walker levels of melting like butter in the hot glare of the media light, but I don't think he's going to be able to make it through without loving up. Dude thought it was a good idea to chug some water real quick during the State Of The Union rebuttal. He definitely has a chance, because he's not Trump, or Santorum, or Cruz, or Carson. But Bush is going to have to flame out early for Rubio to really have a chance. Pohl posted:I just realized that I can't look at a Fox news graphic/poll without trying to figure out how they skewed it. Good job Fox. Carson declared at the perfect time, so no one's had a chance to really dig in and expose how loving insane the idea of President Dr. Ben Carson is. As a result he's coasting on appearing on Fox a lot and having positive name recognition. I'd be surprised if he makes it through the debates without quickly dropping to Graham numbers.

I'm going to predict Trump to be the first to peak and burn out. A few more polls showing him hovering around second and the media glare will turn up, and if ever there was a candidate ready to say something dumb enough to sink their campaign it's Trump - his bar's just higher than usual, is all.

A few more polls showing him hovering around second and the media glare will turn up, and if ever there was a candidate ready to say something dumb enough to sink their campaign it's Trump - his bar's just higher than usual, is all. The question is: what could Donald Trump possibly say that's so dumb he'd sink his campaign? This is from his talk to the Maryland Republicans last night: quote:“Baltimore is a very, very special case, and it's a very sad thing that's happening there. And I know Baltimore...and I love Baltimore, and I love what it represents, and where it's gone, and now you look at what happened in one night, just in one night. I mean, other nights were a disaster but one night was catastrophic for Baltimore. You have to create spirit, you have to create jobs, you have to get people working, they have to want to work. And the other thing is, when President Obama got elected, I said look, one thing he's going to be a cheerleader for the country...and in actuality, he's just the opposite. And if you look at black and African—you just take a look—and if you look at black and African-American youth, I mean to a point where they've just about never done more poorly; there's no spirit, there's killings on an hourly basis, virtually, in places like Baltimore and Chicago, certain sections of Chicago, and many other places...Baltimore needs jobs, and it needs spirit. It's got no spirit, none.”

Trump's demographic is the section of the population that views dumb statements as a positive. Edit: You can tell mostly because Donald Trump saying "I would be a great president" is so self-evidently dumb that this must be the case.

But Trump has a similar advantage to Hilary: he's been in the spotlight for so long everyone's pretty much made up their mind about them and they can't really disappoint outside of a dead girl/live boy situation. Trump will continue to have a loyal following of low-info "haha the dude with the hair from The Apprentice is running haha gently caress yeah" people, until the base galvanizes around 2-3 more "serious" candidates and Trump takes over Palin's spot on Fox News.
