That makes no sense though. Why would they try to get rid of Trump if he's winning? That's good for them.

Like, I know these people are crazy, but this really just makes no sense at all.

A high profile lawyer signed on to that Trump child rape case. If this starts to get talked about in the media in a big way the RNC will have to dump him won't it?

He's in trouble with the combination of this latest audio tape and that Paris Hilton tape. It's damning character wise.

the schism on the right is fun. i hope it costs republicans the senate when trump voters refuse to fill in the down ballot.

the tactic of letting republicans back away from trump and not attacking them is working pretty well at inspiring paranoia

I think it goes like this:

premise 1: Donald Trump is winning (this is a given and a fundamental axiom of r/the_donald's worldview)
premise 2: Republicans are betraying Donald Trump by dumping him like hot poo poo

conclusion: the GOPe secretly wanted Hillary to win all along and are sabotaging him to make it happen, because ~establishment~

Eichenwald seems to have been a bit broken by the election. It's unfortunate that he's puffed it up as much as he has, because it isn't the smoking gun he thinks it is-but provided that his details are right, it's definitely notable.

For those unwilling to click through- Sputnik (RT without attempting to keep the veneer of respectability) rapidly reported on the last batch of the Bear-leaked Podesta emails, focusing on one sent to him by Blumenthal about Benghazi. The substance of the article is that the email proves Blumenthal and Podesta agree that Benghazi was all Hillary's fault, based on the following quote: "Clinton was in charge of the State Department, and it failed to protect U.S. personnel at an American consulate in Libya. If the GOP wants to raise that as a talking point against her, it is legitimate"

Problem is, the quote is one piece of a much longer article by Eichenwald, which was cited and reproduced (with link and title) by Blumenthal in the email. Once Sputnik realized how badly they'd hosed the story, they pulled it. According to Eichenwald (and this is the part that needs to be true for there to be any meat), only a Turkish paper had referenced/run with that by the time Trump got on stage in Pennsylvania and repeated the quote, attributing it to Blumenthal with the same takeaway.

It would mean that either
A: his staff is picking things up from Sputnik faster than Drudge+Breitbart+RightTwitter are, and scrubbing the source info away
B: The same as 'A', but without the scrubbing. Despite being briefed that the Russians are trying to influence our election, he uncritically passes along Russian Propaganda sourced from emails hacked by Russia
C: Whoever is in charge of the DnD campaign out of Russia has a line to Trump/His Staff and passed the story along directly, but failed to stop him when they retracted it.

A is cause for immediate termination in a campaign that fires for far less. B is notably reckless, but fits Trump's pattern. It's likely why the intelligence community broke with protocol and leaked the content of Trump's briefing-so that when he's busted, he can't say he didn't know. If this is the case, it's a serious news story. C is Eichenwald's theory and would be one of the top 10 discoveries of American investigative journalism, so I understand his excitement. I just don't agree with him. By hyping it as it's C, he makes it tough for people to take seriously.

You'll probably see some stuff about Voter Fraud today in deplorable-land since O'Keefe just dropped his latest nothing video of a New York election commissioner "admitting" (alleging) widespread voter fraud consisting of bus-fulls of blacks and Muslims being driven to various polls to vote multiple times because that's totally a thing that happens.

Which just makes this video of Donald Trump (accompanied by Billy Bush) having trouble voting in New York due to registration issues that much more topical:

...Strange events begin to occur and scientists become objects of increasing media hostility. They experience government restrictions on their activities and movements. Others, particularly those keen on examining the Visitors more closely, begin to disappear or are discredited. Noted scientists confess to subversive activities; some of them exhibit other unusual behaviors, such as suddenly demonstrating hand preference opposite to the one they were known to have...

...Scientists around the world continue to be persecuted, both to discredit them (as the part of the human population most likely to discover the Visitors' secrets) and to distract the rest of the population with a scapegoat to whom they could attribute their fears...

With polls saying he lost the debate relatively badly, I wonder if Trump has illuminated a new political law: if you lower debate expectations too far, your performance comes off even worse because the default position in people's minds becomes you lost. I call this new phenomena The Laugher Curve.

Interesting take to say the least but it does mirror my feelings as a gay person that folks (almost universally white, heterosexual men) stating they're voting third party this year are doing so from a place of privilege because none of their rights are directly threatened by a Trump presidency. It also feeds into my annoyance over that "both parties are equally bad" narrative because that is demonstrably false.
