You guys are missing the important part. Conway and Bannon took Trump from ~15% chance to win on RCP to ~40% chance to win, and they're being dumped because it might hurt Trump's business. Does this sound like a man who really wants to be president?

On one hand his chances of doing so are small I agree, and it would be monumentally stupid.

On the other hand, monumentally stupid really doesn't stop an angry Trump.

Neil Young absolutely owned in the 60/70/80/90/00s, and now in the 10s, he is unbelievably poo poo.

He also supported Reagan in '80, and then wrote the greatest anti-Reagan song of all time (Rocking in the Free World) in '89. After writing incredible songs against Nixon (Campaigner), Kent State (Ohio), and Southern racism (Alabama, Southern Man) in the 70s. gently caress knows what his politics are other than his lovely electric car.

I know there's probably some complex form of arbitration or something that they'd have to go through contractually, but it's satisfying to imagine a president doing just that. It's such an unbelievable boondoggle, it completely boggles my mind that the public isn't enraged by it but they get pissed off if someone buys a Pepsi with their EBT card.

I mean, this is what we thought when his manager was revealed as a Kremlin plant so he replaced him with loving Breitbart, so I'm in the camp that says Trump can swap his staff as many times as he wants with whoever he wants.

I don't buy the Trump is invincible myth. Most things might not matter but some things definitely do. Trump's staff decisions are one of the former.

A big part of misogynists is they're incapable of rationally or objectively evaluating the strength and intelligence of a female opponent, because their idea is fundamentally irrational.

The idiot writing that suggestion probably thinks it would be easy because Hillary lacks a manbrain and thus is not nearly as smart, obviously.
