Mitt Romney never opposed free trade.

And he isn't anywhere near as competent a narrative-weaver as Trump is. He's a milquetoast mormon parasite who bought his way into the establishment spot.

I know you're still new to this country, but want to hear a little secret?

Donald Trump has been one of the most hated men in America for decades.:ssh: The fact that he's been able to dupe a group of unbelievably stupid people says more about them than it does about Trump.

Bit of a difference when Trump is actively pushing for things that white supremacists want to happen, and Hillary isn't.

this'll be one of the most interesting parts of the coming general, and assuming no major recession, I think kills the hopes Trump supporters have for capturing a higher percent of minority votes. Obama's support is still ~90% among black americans

"Obama is increasingly involved in the 2016 presidential campaign"
https://www.washingtonpost.com/poli...:homepage/story

Trump hasn't attacked him yet, but can't wait to see how this goes over:

quote:

Republican National Committee spokeswoman Lindsay Walters said in an email that Obama will be “a huge liability” in swing states because he has “job approval numbers that continue to struggle.”

Hadn't considered this though - is Biden actually popular enough there to impact trump? Don't know a ton about Diamond Joe's base

quote:

Vice President Biden, for his part, is preparing to campaign heavily in the Rust Belt to appeal to the white, working-class voters who may be drawn to Trump, according to aides.

Trump's gonna do great with women voters, he loves the women

quote:

“Often, I will tell friends whose wives are constantly nagging them about this or that that they’re better off leaving and cutting their losses,” wrote Trump. “I’m not a great believer in always trying to work things out, because it just doesn’t happen that way. For a man to be successful he needs support at home, just like my father had from my mother, not someone who is always griping and bitching. When a man has to endure a woman who is not supportive and complains constantly about his not being home enough or not being attentive enough, he will not be very successful unless he is able to cut the cord.”

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

i think that his 'i supported trump before but then i found out hillary is secretly a white nationalist' story is a spectacularly lazy attempt to paper over an attempt to play 2-dimensional political chess and discredit the opponent of the candidate he still supports - but hey, maybe i'm wrong

do you really think his support is genuine? if so, do you agree with the conspiracy theory he claims to base his support on, that clinton will do the things he was hoping trump would do a few months ago?

even if his support is genuine, its basis is that he believes clinton is secretly in favor of things she's never said she's in favor of - meanwhile trump gets applause from white nationalists for his 'i would disavow, but...' response to their support for him. the former has no relationship to anything clinton has done or said, the latter is textbook dogwhistling

coincidentally, obama's job approval minus disapproval aggregate on rcp just inched up to 0 for the first time since june of 2013. i don't know which direction that'll go in the next five months, especially as he involves himself in the campaign, but it's a better place to start than the -10 he was at during the last midterm campaign season, that's for sure
