I haven't seen her post anything on Facebook today. Wonder if I should call in a well-check. She's usually at 10+ a day.

No, there's a point where Trump's ceiling shrinks enough that they're better off disavowing him and emphasizing party unity otherwise, to try to have a higher ceiling than Trump for the downballot races. I don't know if they're actually there yet, but the GOP leadership seems to think they are.

The reactions today from the deplorables who were freaking out at Ryan and other politicians for not standing by Trump makes me wonder if they can do that. The number of Republicans who think completely dumb poo poo like Obama isn't American or Christian suggest that contingent is not tiny and they seem sufficiently angry and crazy to burn down the party to please Lord Trump. Having 4-8% of your base decide to not show up or not vote for establishment candidates means they lose pretty much anywhere contested.

I mean McGovern has his VP shenanigans in August and it still killed him and the party. I can't imagine the impact of a VP dropping in October but it seems unlikely to lead to people rallying around the party.

That's why a quiet Dole strategy to not piss off deplorables but shift money around seems more likely as much as I want open GOP infighting before the election.

I don't get Giuliani's endgame here. Isn't he supposed to be a social/political climber? Is he looking to be the front of the new emerging "gently caress the free market, just bash the darkies" bloc?

It's actually disquieting. I hope he doesn't have any young kids or he might pull a Frau Goebbels and crack cyanide capsules inside their sleeping mouths when the results come in, sparing them the horrible life in a world without President Pizza Rat, then go play solitaire.

Imagine how pissed Trump would be if she just blows him off no longer seeing him as a threat.

I would love to see her do that until he explodes and then reply "Sorry, I thought you were being replaced on the ticket. Guess you can't believe everything you read on the internet."

You can only do a Dole if the candidate is in on it and agrees with the plan. Donny has been slighted and his pride wounded, there is no power on this Earth that can get him to quietly go along with the traitorous, corrupt system looking to steal the Presidency from him and the silent majority he represents.

You know, I no longer feel like a poo poo heel for thinking this, but I believe that Juanita Broderick wasn't raped. Like, categorically across the board think she's full of poo poo. There's no way you hear Donald Trump talk about sexually assaulting women and think that it's just "saying things", especially when you're doing it as a defense. Like, it's so unlike a rape victim to call out their rapist while defending another talk about raping women. I've worked with more rape victims than I care to remember, and nothing in my experiences or training has ever mentioned this as a possibility that someone would do unless the rapist they were defending had a family or romantic tie to them.

Giuliani once attacked a victim of a wrongful police shooting as "no altar boy". The victim turned out, in fact, to have literally been an altar boy at the same Catholic school Giuliani attended. Being hilariously, epicly wrong is nothing new for him.

It doesn't matter. Wikileaks could drop a video of Hillary stomping a baby to death with her sensible yet fashionable flats and a)the Hillaryites would insist that baby-stomping is actually good, and b)it wouldn't matter at all because the Trump campaign has completely flatlined. A Gary Johnson presidency is about as likely at this point.
