Hillary Clinton was talking about the Alt-Right when she said half of Trump's supporters were a "basket of deplorables" right?
Or was she talking about the other deplorable people that have rallied to his banner? It's hard to keep straight which group of his supporters falls under what descriptor these days. Especially since the internet started leaking into the public sphere, what with the whole Alt Right being talked about by network news anchors.

Yeah, it feels to me like it's part of her effort to court the "normal" Republicans who are freaking out about Trump, as though they're going to give up on decades of hating her just like that.

she doesn't feel any need to offer the left anything, never has, never will. She will never not charge to the right. "Vote Hillary or else Trump" is the only thing she has ever bothered to offer to lefties. Demoralizing but true.

The point isn't necessarily to get them to vote for her, just vote for Johnson or stay home instead of voting for Trump.

Considering that her and the DNC's platforms moved significantly leftward after Bernie gained traction, I don't think this is the case.

Because the republicans are really that bad, and have really signed that many deals with various devils. Trump is a conman, playing their game better than they can, to the audience of rubes and suckers that they have spent decades of their all-too-mortal lives painstakingly assembling. Anyone got that Jastiger quote about Cruz?

Trump is the culmination of decades of lovely Republican policies and ideaologies. The mistrust of government, racebaiting politics, etc. It's a conspiracy alright, but one perpatrated by the Republicans on accident, against themselves.

I mean they both have huge disapproval ratings which is bizarre and stupid for a national election, but I listen to the BBC and I'm pretty sure you're hearing a lot more about "holy gently caress what is wrong with america that Trump could be president" than about Hillary.

Oh sure, but I mean overall it's not much different to what I mentioned. Like, a lot of newspapers will wail and gnash their teeth about how terrible [Candidate] is without ever going into an awful lot of detail why. I guess that's a statement on how lovely the news is here more than anything, though.

quote:

I just want to remind everyone of something.

One of the most loathsome people to ever loving live on this planet, Ted Cruz, backstabbed and hosed over every person he came in contact with for the past four years, forced his party into a bunch of no-win scenarios that made them look stupid and clueless, and generally called out everyone in his entire party as a bunch of commiesymp Islamolibs who want to dress up as a gay-married woman and gently caress a child in a public bathroom. He did all of these things knowingly, burning every bridge he's ever crossed, mauling every hand that's ever fed him, all in service of one dream: He would become the Republican nominee in 2016 and win the Presidency and then the trail of blood and nightmares he left behind wouldn't matter because gently caress you I'm POTUS that's why.

He sacrificed everything to this goal, and he's going to lose by a small number of delegates to the political equivalent of the Fukushima meltdown. His strategy would (probably) have worked! It's pretty clear that the JEB! never stood a chance regardless of how much money he raised because he's a loving walking Ambien who conservatives thoroughly despise, Scott Walker couldn't even figure out how to hire someone who understood things like "a budget," Ben Carson looks like an attractive candidate up until he has to speak in anything other than meaningless fortune-cookie platitudes, etc. All that work, all that planning, all that treachery, all that time.

ALL FOR loving NOTHING AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

He's been reaching for this brass ring his entire life, leaning farther and farther out from his carousel horse. What would he lose first, his balance, or his nerve? But he never flinched, leaning out further and further with each turn of the carousel, and then just before, just before his fingertip brushed it an orange hand came out of nowhere and took that bitch right away from him, right in front of him, and there was never anything he could do to stop it. Now all that's left is the fall.

There aren't words in any language to describe the joy it brings me to see such a heinous, hateful motherfucker destroyed in such a gut-wrenching, miserable way. Tonight was the beginning of Ted Cruz's descent to a talk radio host saying things like, "Well, when *I* was in the United States Senate, let me tell you..."

Ted is a mess.
Ted is a waste.

Because the primary system is terrible and the other Republican candidates were all terrible, and Hillary Clinton is so widely loathed by U.S. conservatives that even people who wouldn't normally get behind Trump are willing to elect him if it means she loses.
