Remember, it's only August 4th. Those polls can swing back at any time. Trump got away with a lot of poo poo when he became the nominee, and Hillary is despised by a lot of people, so all Hillary has to do is not say "bless you" when a marine sneezes, and suddenly everyone will hate her again and drift to Trump.

I firmly believe this.

not at all untrue, republicans just have to find something to get their teeth into like some plan to gestate half-human half animal embryos comingfrom the government and blame it on hillary

Is this the second time a Trump surrogate has blamed Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton for the war in Iraq?

Watching you sleep.

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

MSNBC has a pair of Trump surrogates on and they're both babbling trying to explain why this whole Khan thing is all a media construction because they're in the tank for Hillary. The anchor is pushing back and quoting Trump's own "attacks" on the Khans and they're sitting there babbling about how "they're not attacks, they're fumbles." Its funny because they're accusing the media of using talking points from the Clinton campaign to use the word "attack" when it couldn't be more clear they're following their own talking points on how to say any word except "attacks"

Also, apparently the election doesn't actually start until Labor Day.

i love how trump's racism is a minor personality quirk for the GOP until it extends to one of ARE TROOPS/one of the good ones and then all hell breaks loose. it's like what did you expect ???

It seems like they're fine with the racism in the abstract, but as soon as it's targeted (judge Curiel, Khan) everyone's like "whoa now you've gone too far!"

Yes but I was told by Trump that his rallies prove that people are really tired of Obama and Hillary.

Side tangent, young people bitching about Bernie perplex me. I realize some of them were too young, but do they realize that we (the Democratic primary voters) actually DID change the conversation by nominating Obama rather than Hillary? Like the storyline is that the game is rigged but it's no more rigged now than it was in 2008 when we did exactly what they're saying is impossible to do.

The counterpoint, though, is that Hillary's been savaged by them for over 20 years now, so the ROI for it is shrinking and she's got battle training. So who the hell knows? I just don't trust idiot voters (I.E. anyone who votes differently from me)

once hillary wins someone needs to ask mcconnell if he feels like a failure that not only did he not keep obama a one-term president he's now got a third term :smugdog:

actually just ask him if he feels like a failure generally there's a lot more that he should feel bad about than just that

Right, and Obama's at 50+% approvals and Hillary is actually relatively close to where she needs to be and in the meantime Congress has approval ratings somewhere around cancer and Hitler.

If Trump gets the GOP blown out in November I think we'll see the non-Freedom caucus bend the knee.

Moreover, the Obama and Bernie episodes and the cabinet experience changed Hillary for the better (or, at least, that's the appearance). Maybe she's just got better at concealing the fact that she triangulates every drat position she takes, but she comes across as more driven by a broad set of well-thought-out principles than she used to.
