So, like, are we going to get a "Trump's payroll checks bounced" flood of leaks before the election, or only immediately after a la Romney? Even with a couple million in your piggy bank you shouldn't have trouble with that, but this IS Trump we're talking about.

Either way, we'll hear about it it. For a staff of 28 people there are a shitton of leaks on every single story.

The checks won't bounce. They also won't show up in the first place, because Trump is well known for straight up just not paying people if he doesn't feel like it, and when he loses disastrously I'm not confident he'll be feeling like honoring any deals.

Reminder that Trump had $1.3m in the bank 20 days ago. He's probably sitting on a cool half million or so at this point. Looks like he's been "borrowing" less and less from himself over time, too, which might signal an unwillingness to sacrifice too much of his fortunate (or, hilariously, the end of his liquidity.)

It's looking more and more like this election is going to give us the most amazing academic experiment. What percentage of voters will come out and vote Republican no matter what? No get out the vote ground game, no actual advertising, the party itself distancing themselves from the candidate. Additionally they are being shamed against voting for that nominee by their surrounding community(admittedly to varying degrees) and the general national culture. Nothing but a person on the ballot with (R) following their name who occasionally goes on TV and says such insane poo poo that the American Media calls them out.

Just a whole cycle of data on people who you can not stop from voting Republican by any means short of force.

For a regular ban, yes. Some Hillary toxxers have been all full of beans lately for some odd reason, and have decided to go all-in on permaban toxxes, which I'll allow because it's funny and it'll be a nice consolation prize if worse comes to worst and the sweaty orange clown wins.

This does not make sense when, again, aggregate indicia also indicate improvements. The belief that things are worse is false. It remains false.

Are conditional permas like A Winner is Jew's also permissible, then?

You know what, I should say something official on this.

:siren: RULES UPDATE:siren:

In the Primary Toxx thread I banned conditional toxxes as it would lead to all sorts of weaselly bullshit, but since we've split the general into two separate threads, I think betting on additional punishments beyond the standard ban is acceptable. To be clear: no matter what anyone says, a basic ban is always in the cards if Hillary doesn't win, but if you want to up the ante, I won't stop you (unless it's dumb and/or not funny).

Matter of fact, let's just add that to the OP.

The only way that Hillary can end up not being the President Elect come November and we still don't get banned is if whoever wins changes their name to Hillary Clinton and we successfully rules lawyer the issue.

While technically the primary season is still on at the point that I post this, it's pretty clear that Bernie is not going to take the Democratic nomination. However, if some bizarre socialist miracle should occur and he emerges from their convention as the party nominee, I'll declare a mulligan and remake this thread.

All right, I'll weigh in on this hypothetical since you're not the only one speculating on it: Under those circumstances, presuming the party then gave the nomination to the Bernman, I'd do as I said in the OP and just close the thread. If, I dunno, they were to draft Biden or something, all bets are off, chaos reigns, etc.

Once the convention has passed, you live or die as does her campaign.
