It's all going to be about the movement and Trump's campaign is the proof-of-concept. I'm mean, yeah there'll be bitching and moaning and accusations of it being rigged, but people like Scott Adams and Bill Mitchell (and Trump himself for that matter) can never lose, their worldview won't allow it, so they just move the goalposts and call it a win. you're probably right to some extent. we won't see as many tears, but we will see meltdowns man i have been snyping like the end lately

Gravy Jones posted:The problem they have is that Trump isn't going to run again and there isn't anyone to replace him in four years time (certainly no one with the name recognition and cult-of-personality thing going on that Trump has) so they're pretty much hosed. What I expect will happen is they'll end up with a GOP establishement candidate who courts the alt-right without going balls-deep, but just doesn't have the Trump factor. I guess the GOP's worst nightmare is an independent Trump-Lite candidate who cannibalises their base. They'll probably run Cotton next cycle with Rubio on the ticket. Either that or Cotton with Walker. Comedy option: Kasich with Cotton. Remember Tom Cotton's speech at the RNC. The guy is a dingleberry but he did what he was supposed to do there, which is get visibility and hope that no one remembers that he's a goddamned veteran and he advocated we get into a goddamned land war in Iran during the 2014 midterms.

There's no way that Trump gets through a concession speech (or whatever you can call the speech after Hillary has won) that doesn't include the word "rigged" so it will definitely be combative.

Well, it all depends on how you define "meltdown". While I'm sure that the vast majority of Trump campaign people and spokespeople probably will not collapse publicly, I look forward to real tears from the people at his "victory party", as well as recriminations and finger-pointing the next day.

A very Joementum article: https://twitter.com/noonanjo/status/795671580189872128 One of the original sins that has helped create the Trump campaign is the fantasy held by some conservatives that 2008 and 2012 should have been easy races for Republicans to win. It’s not difficult to understand where this view comes from: These people can’t fathom the appeal of a Barack Obama and assume the world thinks like they do. On one level, it’s typical tribalism, like an Auburn fan who can’t imagine rooting for Alabama. But on a deeper level it reflects the willful denial of reality that has helped Donald Trump and Breitbart take over the Republican Party. If you believe that 2008 and 2012 were actually easy races to win, it leads you to a series of conclusions now manifest in the disaster that is the Trump campaign. A race would be easy to win if only a candidate savaged an opponent, if only a candidate screamed at the media, if only a candidate really appealed to white voters and called non-white voters, well, “rapists” for example. It’s like believing the Earth is flat. Once you live in that reality, it’s only logical not to send ships over the edge. It wasn’t really a coalition of angry working-class voters that led Trump’s flat-earth crusade. It was a coalition of angry rich media figures who know, even if they are wrong, there is a lot of money to be made denying reality. It’s Laura Ingraham, Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity, Steve Bannon, Rush Limbaugh, and the usual carnival barkers, most of whom are too smart to believe their own nonsense. But they have made fortunes peddling bile and prejudice and the market continues to be good. Donald Trump is the perfect candidate for those who have argued it should be easy for a Republican to win the White House. He’s spent over a year screaming at the president and Hillary Clinton, calling our largest neighbors “rapists” and stirring up religious bigotry. In a country founded on religious freedom, he’s called for a religious test to enter the United States. In the flat-earth world, Trump should be headed to a landslide. He’s running against a Democratic opponent who faced a fierce primary, historically one of the keys to winning the White House. Rarely does the White House remain in the same party for three terms. Hillary Clinton is hardly a fresh face and started the general election with high negatives. This should be a cake walk for the angry candidate building an army of missing white voters. How’s it working? By running a campaign appealing to white voters, Trump is doing less well with white voters than Mitt Romney (I was the chief strategist for that campaign). Trump’s on track to lose white college-educated voters, something no Republican has done since the FDR era. Even Barry Goldwater won white college-educated voters. Romney won white women by 14 points. Trump will probably lose white women. Two data points should be enough to guide the Republican party forward: In 1980, Ronald Reagan won a sweeping landslide of 44 states with 56 percent of the white vote. In 2012, Romney won 24 states with 59 percent of the white vote. And a higher percentage of whites voted in 2012 than 1980.
