It's good that this is happening, because Boosted was getting tired of all the winning and now he can get a little rest.

You could use the 2012 states but then the election's already a foregone conclusion and the whole thought exercise is rendered pointless. 538's Nowcast has jumped to almost 84%; polls-only 65%, polls+ 68%.

I think it's newsworthy that the presidential nominee for a so called major party is using such language to describe the other nominee.

I guess another way to put it would be "She can lose x and y from the Obama states and win z and still win" but that becomes a mouthful.

The craziest part of this whole thing is that at every single opportunity, they gently caress anything and everything up but they're still going to get 40+% of the vote...nothing matters. If I thought they were smarter I'd say they were doing it all on purpose to show how hosed up 40% of America is, but they're not that smart.

I'm actually having trouble parsing what "to be objected to it" means here. Does he mean she wouldn't allow herself to be subjected to it? That's a lovely thing to say, and is pretty much victim-blaming. Or does he mean she wouldn't find it objectionable? Because that's an even shittier thing to say.

He or the tweetor meant subjected Which is basically blaming the victims.
|
# ? Aug 2, 2016 13:03 |

He almost certainly meant to say subjected, which is to say that he apparently believes that any woman who is sexually harassed must like it if they don't quietly leave without pressing charges (seeing as the other interpretation - that pressing charges was a way of not being subjected to it - has been dismissed by Trump in his frequent defenses of Ailes)

He uses "subjected" in the same paragraph so I'm gonna go with blaming the victim.

I'm guessing he was originally going to say "to be objectified" but changed his mind to "subjected to it" at the last moment and mashed the two together.
