+1 for Iron Abuela and John Lewis in Atlanta. Unfortunately the Republican Senator incumbent is up by 14 puts in the latest poll. Josh Lyman fucked around with this message at 23:43 on Oct 29, 2016 |

botany posted:The GOP is in a legitimate Prisoner's Dilemma situation right now, and that's actually pretty interesting to see in the wild. If you and me are both Republicans, then it is in both of our interests to court minority votes and be less racist, so that our party can continue to be electable in the future. However, if you do that, then it's in my best interest to rake you over the coals for it and look like a strong leader instead, especially if we're running for the same seat. So while the party as a whole benefits from a conciliatory approach and a leftward shift, individually that makes you weak. They're pretty much hosed for a while, and it will be interesting to see how they get out of it. I feel like "Paul Ryan"'s entire character arc so far in Trump Leaks is a pretty accurate summation of how the Republican Party leadership has and will handle Trumpism. When all else collapses, they'll still count on the right wing authoritarians to support cutting taxes on the wealthy, and a program of deregulation. Everything else is window-dressing.

On the other hand, Trump running again would put deplorables even further in the public sphere and that's not good.

CascadeBeta posted:http://www.politico.com/story/2016/10/2020-hillary-clinton-donald-trump-230486 Four continued years of Trump bitching on Twitter, waiting for 2020 and sinking his claws into the Republican system. Four long years of fascists turning on each other after Trump stinks of loser and there is an inevitable rift in the party. Four years of congressmen slowly killing themselves for angering Trump. The wonderful thing to think about is that he's 70 and already unhealthy as gently caress and look at what this campaign is doing to him. If he keeps this going for a few years he'll likely spontaneously com bust.

God, what if Trump announces in his concession speech that he's running in 2020 (The most unbelievable part of the above question is the assumption that Trump will make a concession speech)

Interesting article on Republicans preparing for what comes after election day. Nice to see that Arzying isn't confined to one side:Boston Globe posted:“It’s like Humpty Dumpty fell and broke, then a giant lawn mower ran over it, acid was thrown on the pieces — and a bunch of racist idiots ran off with an arm and a leg,” said John Weaver, a longtime Republican consultant. “How do you put it back together? I don’t know.”

Exactly, there's not going to be this season's primary where they held back on Trump and let him poo poo all over them and then roll around in the poo poo. The Republican candidates are going to go all out on him next time, especially if Clinton gets the downticket.

I think Trump's drunk, or the teleprompter is, or both. Currently in Arizona: https://twitter.com/SopanDeb/status/792502976355049472 quote:Trump just told the crowd in Arizona that he can win Minnesota. https://twitter.com/mckaycoppins/status/792503811478740992 quote:He also just told his Arizona crowd that they are as loud as an Ohio State football game. Re: the early voter numbers - no idea. Mook seems pretty happy retweeting them so they can't be all that bad.
