Shouting foul play is a given, and he will absolutely couch it in language that implies in terms vague enough to deny (like he's a loving master of) that violence is the only way to correct the vote.

"This election was stolen from you, and I don't know about you people, but there's only one way of dealing with thieves", something like that.

Reminds me of last year when the Swedish Democrats (racists) started putting out addresses to asylum homes throughout the country at the same time as a whole bunch of these places got burnt down. They pulled "the people need to know, we can't take responsibility for their actions" card.

I feel like it has all of the ingredients for the Republicans and alt-right to rally around.

I really don't have it in me for even more of this poo poo. This election needs to end.
Stop assuming the Republicans are ever acting in good faith with this poo poo. Because they aren't. Sure, if it's something new, give it a cursory look, but the heuristic of "a Republican's mouth is moving? Probably lies" has served me in amazing stead over the last few years.

Pretty much the only conspiracy theory I believe is that the government encourages fantastical fake conspiracy theories because it diverts attention from actual boring, every day corruption.

Thanks for reminding me, Donald:

That means that now, at what is his lowest point and people are MOST unlikely to feel enthused to vote for him, nobody in swing states Ohio, Florida, Pennsylvania (lol), or Georgia can change their mind and bother to register. This dulls Trumps ability to gain momentum even if the race became even again somehow.

Yes, it's true. All Donny supporters in Florida, it's too late. You can no longer register to Make America Great Again. Go home, drink a Natty Lite, and think about how awesome it's going to be to watch Donny get those other people who you don't like. Everyone else, please wait a moment while they leave.

The deadline for voter registration has been extended by a Judge due to Hurricane Matthew. Right now you have until the end of the day tomorrow to register. The Judge will be holding a hearing tomorrow morning to consider extending the deadline further. It is pretty likely he will considering his quote when giving the temporary extension was. "Quite simply, it is wholly irrational in this instance for Florida to refuse to extend the voter registration deadline when the state already allows the governor to suspend or move the election date due to an unforeseen emergency".

Gaining traction in what sense? There is no use in worrying about what the right wing will squawk about, because they will find some bullshit and act like it's a disqualifying end of the world event no matter what.

quote:

If you look at his left shoulder here, of the hand he’s pointing at Hillary with, it’s a lump and a bump—it dips down and falls off. I’d also like to make the bottoms of the trousers a little bit narrower, because it makes his feet look really small.


And do you know what? I never noticed how small his feet are.
