Normally he's very, very critical of Clinton and Liberals too, so this says something.

this literally isn't true (whigs broke up over slavery, nobody took the know-nothings seriously) and all our third parties are jokes so there won't be one to take the GOP's place when they continue sliding down their Brown Death toilet drain

The funniest historical third party is the Anti-Masonic Party and how they tried to get a guy to join their party who was still an active Freemason.

Technically you haven't been allowed to be a member of the Communist Party if you want to immigrate for a few decades

Trump had a full day of subduing a foreign leader and using that energy to give a fully fascist immigration speech

The only non-Trumps who seem to be swayed in the affirmative are a fraction of the #NeverTrumpers so like 15 neocon pundits

It's a little bit juvenile, but it's simple and it's timeless.

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.
I would really like to meet who the soft voters are in this election who were somehow swayed or even aware of today/tonight's events [spoiler: soft voters don't really exist]

trump went a day without publically making GBS threads his pants (well, he did poo poo them a little, but everyone ignored it). Gave a terrifying speech. Media now confirms the race is too close to call as they lick their chops for rating dollars. Boosted still has yet to cover his horns with a dashing red cap.

My take - Trump won the Hewitt, NRO, Frum, Krauthammer, Kristol vote tonight.

This would have been great for him if it were the primaries or post convention... Not labour day weekend.

No, but this is the first time he's gotten more specific about it. Basically he straight up said they'll be asking about immigrant's thoughts on honor killings and LGBT people, among other things
