If you want to understand why Trump still has a very good shot at winning the Presidency, even after this, read Hillbilly Elegy. Never underestimate the scope and scale of our ignorant, disenfranchised former laborers. To them, even though Trump realistically isn't going to do anything to improve their situation (and would likely make it worse), he represents their last great hope to be powerful and important in their own little worlds. Hate and fear and xenophobia aren't going to make anything anywhere any better, but when that's all you have to keep you warm at night you hold on to it.

He basically said that when faced with Donald Trump he can understand how people can see that voting for Hillary would be the moral choice. Brietbart ran that through the spin machine and that's what you get there.

Of course that's not even getting into the fact that Donald is completely self destructing and trying to bring down the GOP with him at this point.

We can hope!

I seriously think Trump has Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Narcissists are incredibly predictable once you understand them. And he's SO destructive. Give a narcissist free rein and they will destroy everything you have, including your own mental health. And it won't even look like their fault! The Republicans were going to wind up with an extremist candidate sooner or later- someone out of control who would capitalize on their campaigns against the Clintons- but landing Trump was incredibly bad luck.

Prester Jane's Decoding Authoritarians thread covers that. She personally believes she does, and others with more professional experience in the things she talks about have corroborated her knowledge. Trump is the picture perfect example of "getting high on your own supply", and his mood and behavior during the debates and on Twitter seems to depend heavily on how much his ego is getting stoked.

Watch both of them when the the other is talking. Hillary is taking notes and looking for weak spots and thinking about what she can say and how her planned talking points can sound coherent.

Donald is sulking and looking resentful that he's not talking right now and not thinking about his preprepared points because he's just going to jam them in where ever he can and gently caress you if want a coherent train of thought.

I want a president that stands behind his chair and gently thrusts against it during international negotiations.

Hell, I want trump making speeches at the UN while he molests the podium. I want Trump making a speech honoring fallen veterans while he humps the tomb of the unknown soldier. I want to see Trump grinding against Air Force One shortly after arriving on Chinese soil.

I also want a photo to emerge of Donald Trump and Bill Clinton throwing dollar bills at a 21 year old stripper wearing a Hillary mask. What now America?

The crazy thing is he can't be prosecuted and sentenced to an iron box in the Arizona desert sun, like he did to a mentally handicapped woman. Third degree burns, dehydration and all for the "crime" of prostitution carried out by a woman with the mind of a child for mouthing off to his deputies.

He won't "fall out of bed" and be beaten to death by the floor somehow like the again mentally disabled man who died in his custody.

I can't advocate that kind of punishment and no jury will but that's a taste of what he's done so aaaagh!
