For anyone who can't read the tiny text, the $1 from your jug of sugar is being donated to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.

However, please note that "Juvenile" diabetes, aka Type I Diabetes is not caused by diet, but rather an autoimmune response. So although you can help spur yourself on to Type II adult-onset diabetes with your sugar-prize, you aren't causing the exact disease your donation will be fighting.

Not going to lie, my immediate thoughts went to Parks and Recreation. That's exactly the sort of poo poo you'd expect to see for one of those "Child Size" cups that is in fact named such because it can hold the equivalent to an entire liquified toddler.

Considering his inability to mention a woman without talking about her appearance I'm sure right now the last sane member of his inner circle is begging everyone to just let this one go.

It sounds like there's conflicting reports as to if his staff is actually pushing his current "No More Mr Nice Guy" strategy or trying to reign him in. I'm sure Trump himself is ready to go since she's openly mocked him which he can't stand more than anything so while I think they can't be THAT stupid as you guys say they find ways to do it every time.

Apparently even Conway is for it now. I think now the plan is to go deep into the mud to depress enthusiasm and if they lose, hope to damage President Clinton a little on their way down.

Now I took two years of German in university to satisfy a language requirement, but tell me... is "sexmonster" some special (and amazing) German term? Or is that them just jamming a railroad spike in that big orange Jack O Lantern by making up a new insult to do it? :getin:
The tabloid BILD habitually abuses the tendency of the German language to compound together new words in order to fit simplistic characterizations into headline format.

"Sexmonster" isn't a well-established term, but it's just as straight-forward normal german as engl. "sex monster".

Depress enthusiasm for their voters? I'm not sure you can depress enthousiasm for the other side by being even worse than Trump is now? You might even get more people to come out and support the other side.

I think the idea is to make the entire election such a poo poo show "regular" people just say gently caress it and depress turnout because both candidates suck while the garbage Trump base actively thrives and are energized in that environment tipping close swing states for Trump. I don't know if that's based on any actual statistics or political theory but it's what they seem to be attempting as the Trump train catches fire.

Yes, as we were all taught in school ad hominem is a logical fallacy that should not be used unless the person’s character is part of the issue. In most debates (abortion, gun rights, etc.) trying to discredit an argument based on a person’s character, appearance, etc would be ad hominem. However, in a presidential election a person’s character is of vital importance. The President of the United States is the face of the country at home and abroad. It is of the utmost importance that the President act in a way that reflects American ideals. So attacking a candidate based on their character is part of the Presidential vetting process. The closets need to be emptied because if they are not our enemies will in an effort to destabilize our government. So, Donald Trump’s potential sexual abuse of women needs to be reported and discussed just as Bill Clinton’s was during his Presidency. It is funny how character vetting for Trump supporters only works one way. If it helps Donald they like it if it doesn’t then they don’t. The perfect example of ad hominem on the campaign trail was “Little Marco.” That was true ad hominem used by Trump. Marco Rubio’s height has nothing to do with his fitness to be president and neither does the size of Donald Trump’s hands.

Can somebody explain to me how Ken Bone is not a racist by leaving a possibility that he will vote for Trump? Everybody is all meme and monocle "good day sir" bullshit about him like he wasn't a racist.

Every undecided voter is racist and misogynist.

The reason he has for being "undecided" in that his job is potentially more important to him and his family than the threat Trump poses to everyone else is absurd since Trump isn't saving any dying American industries and anyone paying attention can see he has no plan to do so. I don't think that's getting nearly enough criticism because it's not a Sophie's Choice, he's deciding between a lying conman and an actually politician and thinks the conman is going to honor his profession.

The tactic the last couple of days seems to be to make every attack seem like a response to something else. If you listen to either of yesterdays Trump rallies he starts each attack by making reference to something the Dems "said" often just hinting at something like "her comments about the Catholic Church" and then launches into an attack with the implication being both sides are involved in a mudslinging fight. His surrogates are using the exact same tactics today.

It has made a lot of people feel empowered to take initiative with regards to how ugly and contentious this election is becoming with sexual abuse being so flippantly dragged into the spotlight by a divisive cheeto nazi, but hey if that fat rear end in a top hat brings some attention to it, might as well be for a good cause

Texas is within the margin of error, but looking at the methodology does that change things?

WFAA Article posted:

This poll was conducted by telephone in the voice of a professional announcer. Respondent households were selected at random, using Random Digit Dialed (RDD) sample provided by Survey Sampling, of Fairfield CT. All respondents heard the questions asked identically. The pollster's report includes the geography that was surveyed; the date(s) interviews were conducted, the number of respondents who answered each question and the theoretical margin of sampling error for each question. Where necessary, respondents were weighted using the most recent US Census estimates for age, gender, ethnic origin and region, to align the sample to the population. In theory, one can say with 95% certainty that the results would not vary by more than the stated margin of sampling error, in one direction or the other, had the entire universe of respondents with home telephones been interviewed with complete accuracy. There are other possible sources of error in all surveys that may be more serious than sampling error. These include: the difficulty of interviewing respondents who do not have a home telephone; the refusal by some with home telephones to be interviewed; the order in which questions are asked; the wording of questions; the way and extent to which data are weighted; and the manner in which specialized populations, such as likely voters, are determined. It is difficult to quantify the errors that may result from these and other factors. Research methodology, questionnaire design and fieldwork for this survey were completed by SurveyUSA of Clifton, NJ. This statement conforms to the principles of disclosure of the National Council on Public Polls.
