Skwirl posted:I think Virginia is at least in the "leans blue" category by now, PA was never really up for grabs when it came to presidential politics either. Pennsylvania is the kind of place where if it goes R on election night, you might as well call the race for the Republican and head home. Since you're looking at like a 19709 wave situation.

Oh man I just saw Hamilton Nolan's writeup of the Family Leadership Summit. quote:While most candidates use coded dog whistles to signal their racism and xenophobia, Trump just blares it all out. He’s swallowed the dog whistle. Now everything he says is a full-throated bark. It’s all rather entertaining, as long as we all agree he’s never going to actually be elected. He behaves like a dotty retired truck driver trying out for a role as the mob boss in a community theater production of “Analyze This!” No one would give him an Oscar, but it does break up the tedium.

That’s unfortunate, because it obscures the degree to which Donald Trump is completely incoherent. He is clearly just thinking on his feet, poorly. His stab at appeasing the Christian crowd was to say, “I drink my little wine, and I eat my little cracker, and I do that as often as possible—because I feel cleansed, okay?”

Working in public politics like this can mean walking/standing for hours at a time every day for months on end. A lot of politicians/public figures wear comfort/support shoes like this, he just chose flashier ones.

Cigar Aficionado posted:But in this case, it looks like Trump is taking votes from Clinton, which makes no sense. I've mentioned this before, but I know at least one person that's "Sanders or, barring that, Trump!". See: Voters who dislike insincere politicians with carefully crafted messages, voters who dislike the establishment, voters who dislike "dynasties", voters who dislike waffling in response to public opinion polls. Many of these people will choke down their dislike and vote for Hillary if the only alternative is voting for a Bush, but given an out, a third option that is none of those things, they will seize it. Trump has convinced people he: Believes the things he says wholeheartedly, doesn't apologize, doesn't back down. Is not a career politician or even a politician at all, nor does he come from a family of politicians. Does no one's bidding but his own, Etc. and so on. Additionally, he supports national healthcare and stuff, while also talking about how bad illegals/Mexicans are (and plenty of Democrats hate illegals/Mexicans). It's not surprising in the slightest, there's lot of reasons for someone to switch from Hillary to Trump.

National Review feels the Bern... of the concentration camp ovens!  quote:In the Bernieverse, there’s a whole lot of nationalism mixed up in the socialism. He is, in fact, leading a national-socialist movement, which is a queasy and uncomfortable thing to write about a man who is the son of Jewish immigrants from Poland and whose family was murdered in the Holocaust. But there is no other way to characterize his views and his politics. The incessant reliance on xenophobic (and largely untrue) tropes holding that the current economic woes of the United States are the result of scheming foreigners, especially the wicked Chinese, “stealing our jobs” and victimizing his class allies is nothing more than an updated version of Kaiser Wilhelm II’s “yellow peril” rhetoric, and though the kaiser had a more poetical imagination — he said he had a vision of the Buddha riding a dragon across Europe, laying waste to all — Bernie’s take is substantially similar. He describes the normalization of trade relations with China as “catastrophic” — Sanders and Jesse Helms both voted against the Clinton-backed China-trade legislation — and heaps scorn on every other trade-liberalization pact. That economic interactions with foreigners are inherently hurtful and exploitative is central to his view of how the world works. "You know who else spoke to huge crowds...." ~ National Review, unironically. Of course they would know.
