My wife got into Real Time with Bill Maher recently and we decided to start rewatching eps beginning with the one the day after trumps mexicans/rapists/announcement thing.

It's absolutely surreal now. And, love or hate him, Bill is prescient as gently caress about what's coming down the pipe.

That murder will be of trump by a RNC operative

That's almost as likely to happen as the murder of Cruz by one of his fellow senators

The big man comes on camera at 20:50 (carrying a baby with post-apocalypse hair).

Something I didn't notice the first time around: THere are two sets of TRUMP letters and they replace unpainted ones with painted ones during the rally.
Thank you both.

I'm wondering if staging massive coordinated disruptions at Trump rallies might be a good way to blunt his campaign in the general. Since he does almost no retail politicking, large protests at each and every one of his events might become a problem for him.

This is much more likely, and almost a given at this point.

His rallies in the general are going to be bonkers.

Looking back on the past month, I think Trump losing Iowa may have delivered him the primary. If he had won Iowa, the GOP knives would have come out much sooner. But because he lost to Ted Cruz, it was easy to write him off just a little bit longer as a clown who would eventually flame out without needing to get their hands dirty.

New Hampshire? Kook state. Not reliable! South Carolina? They're concerned now, but wait and see. Then he crushed Nevada and the elites finally realized that the Trump threat was real.

Intel&Sebastian posted:

People keep talking about a terrorist attack giving the election to Trump but I think it's way more likely a death/murder at a Trump rally gives it to the dem.

I wouldn't be surprised if a Trump supporter gets attacked first, actually. We're being inundated nonstop with breathless analysis of Trump being the New Hitler, stories about his supporters being blood-gargling psychopaths, straight-to-11 rhetoric about this being the Worst Possible Thing to Happen to America. It's just a matter of time before someone decides they should martyr themselves to strike directly at the Trumpstaffel.

I think it's pretty likely we see a serious incident, I'm just not sure who will be the victim.

He already has large protests at each of his events. It's part of the show by this point.

One of the counter-protesters was stabbed with the decorative end of a flagpole, said Anaheim police Sgt. Daron Wyatt. An officer responding to the scene saw one of the Klansmen stab a counter-protester with a knife. The Klansman admitted to stabbing the man, but told the officers that it was self-defense, Wyatt said.
