Two companies do national polls but separate the results by state. I think its UPI and SurveyMonkey? Maryland always a big win.

I WILL PUT THIS FLAG ON FREAKING EVERYTHING BECAUSE IT IS SYMBOLIC AS HELL SOMEHOW

I'm feeling pretty pessimistic. I think abuela is going to win the election handily, but the Senate will remain republican, and they'll use that as an excuse to claim that Clinton doesn't have a mandate and also they don't like her face, so the SC will remain with 8 justices for a very long time.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

If he'd just sunk everything in the most bog-standard index-linked fund on the market he'd be worth about $10bn and the lazy gently caress would never even have had to get out of bed

I'm not so sure. If a GOP Senate tries to keep the SCOTUS at 8 judges, it gives Democrats a YUGE weapon to use against them in 2018, and while the "burn it down and salt the earth" crowd in Congress probably hasn't thought that far ahead, you can bet Mitch McConnell has.

one of my fav things about old southern people is, at least around here, a lot of them seem to refer to any drug as "dope"

like a relative of mine, when i was doing landscaping work with him, he talked about the daughter of the woman who rented our old house from him was "on that dope" and how much she's messed up and i'm thinking oh so she's like spent too much money on pot?

nope, meth actually!

The only open Trump supporter at my work (there are others, but they have been embarrassed so much they don't want to talk about it) talks about various family members "using that dope" EVERY SINGLE DAY.

Kurt Eichenwald has one last summary:
https://twitter.com/kurteichenwald/status/795680702134177793
1.Trump lied to Congress that he was not meeting with any Indian casino executives when documents and sworn statements show he was.
2.Trump testified under oath that he is willing to claim success on something even when he knows his claim is false.
3. Deutsche Bank concluded Trump net worth at $788 million when he was publicly claiming (and told bank) he was worth multiple billions.
4. Trump said under oath that he determines his net worth based on how he feels.
5. While Trump suggests he has an MBA from prestigious Wharton graduate school, only attended undergraduate program for 2 years. Has no MBA
6. Trump’s first project, given to him by his dad, lost money, according to state records. Trump has publicly lied that it made money.
7. Trump’s second project was a Broadway show. It bombed, closing after 96 performances. He lost his investment.
8. Trump’s claim that his dad gave him only $1m is a lie. His trust fund was $1 mill. Dad gave $10.4m for a bogus consultant job... (9.) guaranteed $70 m loan, got him $35m credit line, laundered $3.35mill 2 Don in illegal casino deal, loaned $7.5m more (never repaid.)
10. As Trump claimed great success, tax returns showed not. In ‘78 lost $1.5M. In ‘79, lost $11.4m. No bankruptcy cause dad gave him more $
11. When Trump built Taj Mahal, testified under oath to NJ he'd only use bank loans, not junk bonds. No bank would lend. Used junk bonds.
12. Trump’s 3 casinos all competed with each other, which is why no banks loans. Taj took business from his other 2 casinos, crippling all.
13. Trump spent huge sums on airline, promising top elegance. People w/ airline experience said it couldnt work. It never turned a profit.
14. After Trump’s top casino execs died in accident, Trump took over running them. Large numbers of execs quit because of his management.
15. When Trump about to default on interest payment for casino, his dad/he broke law by having dad launder $3.35 mill through casino. (1/3)
16. Dad gave Trump another $150,000 loan next day, unreported to banks, in violation of bank agreement. (2/3)
17 Rules breaking in financing (money laundering from dad etc) resulted in sanctions against him from NJ casino commission. (3/3)
18. Trump banks were forced to make deal with him after bankruptcy of casinos because he personally guaranteed loans. If they went…(1/2) .…after personal guarantee, entire Trump empire would collapse and banks would lose billions. Banks loaned him tons more to save him. (2/2)
19. Trump was $3.5 bill in debt. Later, when banks bailed him out, he claimed in books he was $9.5bill in debt to make recovery look better.
21. Trump admitted under oath that, when he claimed he was $9.5 bill in debt in his books, it was a lie and he knew it.
22. No banks will lend to Trump except Deutsche Bank. In 2008, he defaulted on a $640 mill construction loan to them.
23. List of Trump failures: TrumpMortgage, TrumpFinancial, Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts, Trump Shuttle, http://gotrump.com ...(1/3)
24. ..Trump Vodka, Trump Steaks, Trump Taj, Trump Castle, Trump Plaza, Trump Dubai, Trump University, Trump Toronto, Trump Hollywood..(2/3)
25. I could go on many more tweets listing Trump's business failures. It'd be easier to list the Trump businesses that haven't failed. (3/3)
26. In Trump University, Trump claimed to “personally select” teachers who would teach real estate secrets. He did not, they did not.

That is my first batch of findings from my investigations into Trump, as reported in Newsweek. More coming throughout the day.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

So, they really, really think that memes = votes. How many Trump voters are under 20, male, white, and uneducated?

Also, anyone got some hard numbers to make me feel better that Clinton will win? So nervous in the last hours.
