Oiled and Ready posted:My crazy tinfoil is that Webb only even did the one DNC debate to make inroads with moderate Democrats. Now he's "considering a 3rd party run" but in my mind it's always been Webb - Trump knows picking a woman or minority will be transparent pandering, but a "maverick" like Webb? That's respectable just like McCain's Lieberman pick would have been. The Palin storyline will only enforce this narrative. Consider: Webb is a man of integrity, should be president imo. He is the 'good guy LT' in every vietnam film ever. A literal hero.

Donald J. Trump posted:Once we'd finished our negotiations, the final step was approval of the deal by Holiday's board of directors. In many situations, board approval of management initiatives is merely a formality. In this case, I worried that Rose [chairman of Holiday] might use the board to help him get out of the deal, or at least force changes in it. - The Art of the Deal, p. 214-215

I'm not convinced it can be completely excised from his platform, I'm not totally convinced he doesn't believe some of it (especially the Inscrutable Chinese Supervillains sorts of bits; the Yooge Luxurious Wall and the Muslim Exclusion Act are probably at least somewhat hyperbolic), and less important than either of those things but still salient, the fact that he's whipping this particular band of maniacs into a frenzy is fairly abhorrent to me even if it's completely cynical and faked.

Also: http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/22/politics/national-review-10-reasons/ quote:(CNN)National Review and a group of conservative thought leaders took a strong stand against Donald Trump on Friday. National Review full text: http://www.nationalreview.com/article/430137/donald-trump-conservative-movement-menace Which is interesting given that GOP politicians and political insiders are choosing Trump over Cruz. Time: http://time.com/4190037/donald-trump-ted-cruz-establishment-sides/ quote:But many others have decided that Cruz is the greater of two evils. On Tuesday, Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad, a popular six-term Republican, declared that “It would be a big mistake for Iowa to support [Cruz],” citing his opposition to a federal ethanol mandate. He said a Cruz caucus win would be “very damaging to our state.” Others that support Trump over Cruz are Orin Hatch and Bob Dole. Then there is this which is likely irrelevant. http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/23/politics/donald-trump-black-republicans/index.html quote:A group of black Republicans endorsed Donald Trump on Friday, saying the Republican front-runner is the best candidate to "free black communities" from Democrats.

Trump wants you to know that he could shoot you and he'd still win the Republican nomination. Honestly... it'd probably get him the NRA's endorsement. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTACH1eVIaA Also, not sure why anyone is surprised about Trump retweeting white supremacists. It's not as if the signs weren't always there. For crying out loud, this is Trump's spokesperson. https://twitter.com/KatrinaPierson/status/160181303680040960 https://twitter.com/KatrinaPierson/status/308331654286565378

So, in the wake of Trump's "I can shoot people and you would still vote for me" comment Trump just spiked in Iowa polling. Even Nate Silvers, who has been bearish on Trump, is saying there's a very real chance he takes Iowa. Jesus Christ on a stick. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/690889964599382016

I watched some of Trump's rallies on YouTube as background noise this past week. It's a morbid fascination, like a trainwreck or a car pile-up with dozens of school buses. His horrible rhetoric (well, horrible for any sane person) and the repetition of the same bits over and over and OVER is entertaining and horrifying at the same time. Who are those people cheering this bozo on? Are they getting paid to be there? Are their loved ones being held hostage by the Trumpsquad? Are they homeless people who got a quick makeover to not look like derelicts, lured by the promise of a hot meal? There is a dude in the background of the Reno rally with literally no teeth at all. Your country's going in the shitter. Good luck.

I don't even think that's true. He hasn't been actually predicting anything and he has been the first to say so. Like, that's the problem with being even remotely successful with polling. People assume everything he says is a cast in stone prediction. He hazarded a guess that Trump would be going down based on conventional metrics of endorsements and the assumption that the establishment would focus attacks on Trump. The latter did not happen and weak performances by Rubio also hasn't really given the establishment a candidate to rally around. People act like Silver is denying Trump's leads in the polls but he's really not. He's repeatedly said that early polling is notoriously unreliable and internet polling (which is what much of this year's polls have been) are unproven. Also, personally, I'm wondering if Trump's campaign is driving his success in the polls or if his success in the polls is driving his campaign. There's a reason Trump constantly brings up his polling.
