Not sure why many of you think that the original letter had no impact; it hurt Clinton and the Democrats, badly. Cost them any shot at the House, significantly damaged their chances for the Senate, and even hurt Clinton's chances. I'd agree that it didn't hurt her "support," her topline numbers, specifically, but it

1) Rallied Trump & his campaign (see the NYT article today). They finally took away his Twitter account, Trump's been "on message" all week, gave them a "solid" closing argument. Trump could have gotten A LOT worse this week, destroying his and downballot numbers even further. He was headed that way. We'll never know, now.
2) Took pressure off downballot candidates. They were able to pivot all attacks into, "Clinton's under FBI Investigation."
3) Put media spotlight on Clinton. As has been evident throughout the entire general election campaign, the candidate that received the most media attention was hurt by it.
4) Rallied independents and leaners to his side. Polls show this. Those "on the fence" were pushed into his camp.
5) Rallied weak supporting Republicans, especially women, to his side. See, again, the poll numbers.
6) Prevented a death spiral - if Trump kept up his antics, his supporters might have lost faith and not showed up at the polls, possibly leading to a massive wave and a unified Democratic government.

All over DUPLICATE & PERSONAL EMAILS. I'm absolutely LIVID, not many lmaos for me.

quote:

Back on his plane, heading into the campaign’s final weekend, Mr. Trump reclined in his leather chair and refused to entertain any suggestions that his unorthodox, unpredictable and now uncertain campaign for the presidency would end in defeat.

“I’m going to win,” he said.

Good, he still has hope. I want him to fully lose his goddamn mind on Tuesday.

of course trump's problem isn't mental illness, it's being a giant piece of poo poo on top of the mental illness

I think he's got early onset dementia. It reminds me of my grandpa, who also gets angry at everything, gets angrier when he doesn't understand something, which is almost always now, blames others for him not understanding things, projects the way he is acting onto other people and also only hears certain words and then assigns entirely new meanings to them. So you know, if he did win (LOL) Trump would be Term 2 Reagan.

lol the trump hotel in toronto is in receivership because everyone hates trump

When it comes to business Trump is pretty smart. He doesn't actually own that hotel and won't lose that much money. It was financed with Russian money and lots of small investors lost their shirts. OPM.

I hope that after this election everyone everywhere knows how stupid it is to invest in anything with the Trump name, to sell to Trump, to be a vendor for Trump, to work for Trump. He is a parasite, a blood sucking vampire.

Didn't British courts just rule about something that means Brexit may not even happen?

Would that it were so.

The descision was that the Prime Minister can't just officialy trigger Brexit (scheduled for March apparently) and begin the whole process. Parliament has to meet and vote for it to happen.

Since there's probably a majority of MP's who are actually attached enough to reality that they realise what a disaster it would be. There's a chance that it might happen.

Depends on how obliged they feel to respect the referendum, whether it's a free vote, public opinion at the time etc etc.

So it *might* happen. We get to have more months of glorious uncertainty while this is all thrashed out.
