Have Some Flowers! posted:I think even if Texas somehow went blue this time, it would be written off as the Trump anomaly. Hell of an assumption that Republicans will get their misogyny sufficiently in check after 4 years of Hillary to win White Women again. The last eight years of racism is just a prelude to the next four/eight years of misogyny. It is going to be breathtaking, and by 2024 Republicans are going to be all in representing only older white men.

Given that Romney's gaffes and failures *still* can be felt in this election (even if only to be held up against how loving awful Trump is), I don't think people will forget this in 4 years. The Dems will probably do everything in their power to remind them.

The only thing, and I mean the absolute ONLY thing that could make this any better is if Trump really WAS a secret liberal and ran an ironic campaign and then set about tanking once he got the nomination to throw it to HIllary. That was an extreme longshot to begin with, but now with that video it's impossible.

Geoff Peterson posted:She has a legitimate shot to be the first candidate in 5 cycles (possibly longer? I'm struggling to find aggregated exits that stretch back that far) to win a majority with both white women and non-white voters. Clearly, her candidacy is costing the Democrats a chance to turn Texas blue. Whatever Hillary's merits, the truth is that people really really really loving hate her, especially in the South/south-ish states.

Runaktla posted:I really doubt Pence's career was over he could easily be billed as the guy intending to set the outsider-turned-president straight. I think he's running in 2020 and has a good shot to be nominated. Pence is a candidate in the mold of Romney, and can't capitalize on the same fervence that trump wrangled because fundamentally, Mike Pence is an establishment stooge. He lacks the charisma and boisterousness to capitalize on the Trump wave, and is too poisoned by association to ever be taken seriously among the Very Serious People ever again.

 Kasich: I told you so quote:"Nothing that has happened in the last 48 hours is surprising to me or many others," said Kasich, referencing the video recording that became public Friday of Trump bragging to TV host Billy Bush about his ability to sexually assault attractive women with impunity because of his fame. Buckle up for 2020.

Why would a guy who acted like Trump did (does) be convinced to run an ironic campaign to expose misogyny? He's just a piece of poo poo that got rid of the racial dog whistles and is now getting rid of the sexist dog whistles. His comments are completely in the same vein as previous Republican's.

A lot of it is an unexamined bias but it also happens because it hasn't happened before, you know? We've never had a woman winning a presidential election and poised to be president before. If they're reasonable people they'll probably get over it after 4 years.

I'm going with nonplussed as in "we don't give a poo poo what he did to women, he's making America great again and we are still voting for him." Which doesn't surprise me. There's a lot of white racist people that want Trump to be president because of all the stuff he will do for white people. He said he could shoot someone in broad daylight and get away with it. He could not pay taxes for 20 years. It doesn't matter. He is going to keep white hierarchy strong with Men at the top, then 20 steps down, women, then at the dirt bottom, minorities. He will still get 40% of the vote because there are a lot of terrible people that believe the things he says. They didn't like having a black president, and like hell a liberal woman is going to be the next president. It's honestly terrible. My Facebook feed reveals more and more people that I am friends with that they care more about themselves than others, and are happy to elect this shitstain of a human being because it will benefit them and only them. There can be a video of Trump crushing a kitten with the heel of his shoe, and nothing will change. This is what the last 8 years of hatred have built up to - a crazy Republican presidential nominee that is a high concentration of all the worst things of Republican voters: racist, misogynistic, greedy, and straight up living in an insane reality that doesn't exist. There will be riots if Hillary wins. There will be more psychos. Either the GOP somehow rebuilds itself to something respectable after this, or a new party emerges with Trump at the lead, and makes active attempts at presidential runs because he can nab at least 30% of the nation.
