What's the deal with the "Union Now" napkin? Was the guy trying to organize a union and got fired for it?

He was joking about unionizing campaign workers. You'd think that would make sense for a Democratic campaign, but the business model is built on milking 90 hour weeks out of employees that are salaried at around $35k per year. If someone (that never wanted to work in politics again) wanted to, they could force the issue because that would be the worst optics ever, but no-one does because anyone who takes the job is all in for the cause and the candidate. You take the abuse because you don't want to be the staffer who helps the other side.

This insular, cult-like reasoning is why people tend to burn out after a few cycles. Campaigns eat their young.

you'd think that trump could tap into the most fanatical of his supporters, they're fairly young and energetic even if it's mostly through cuckposting. wanna see the /pol/ gotv campaign next cycle, it could single handedly sink their next candidate's campaign

Dear Hillary cucks, thank you for your nice posts, but I am actually a shitposter who was born to kill, whereas clearly you seem to have mistaken me for some sort of wine sipping, communist dick suck. And although peace probably appeals to tree hugging bi-sexuals like you and your parents, I happen to be a death-dealing, blood-crazed warrior who wakes up every day just hoping for the chance to dismember my enemies and defile their civilizations. Peace sucks a hairy rear end in a top hat, Hillary. Trump is the mother-loving answer.

Hmmmm.... 17% of whites undecided since we've had SO LITTLE EXPOSURE to DONALD TRUMP and HILLARY CLINTON over the past 3 decades, OR 17% of whites don't want to admit who they support????????

If Trump holds Clinton to 35% of the white vote or less, he wins, even if Minority turnout actually IMPROVES slightly with Clinton over Obama.
