They should just restart the whole primary after this is done so we can get another year of pure entertainment.

Brannock posted:You COULD interpret it that way, but the actual interpretation is that Trump was implying that if the economy was in good shape people wouldn't be flocking to his rallies. They're coming to him because they know they're being hosed over immediately before that he said that basically half of the country is unemployed so i dunno how you can dismiss his interpretation

He was engaging in weird unemployment trutherism. Like, you'll often get people citing U6 or w/e and saying "the REAL unemployment rate is much higher", but he's taking it to an extreme because Trump.

its one of his weirder statements that he will immediately walk back on like "wages are too high". in a few days he will deny ever saying it and no one will ever have the balls to show him a clip saying it to this face because american news media is a shitshow

I didn't believe it so looked up the quote. Here it is (interpret it as you will): "Don't believe those phony numbers when you hear 4.9 and 5% unemployment. The number's probably 28%, 29%, as high as 35%, in fact, I even heard recently 42%," Trump stated.

Chris Christie's last and only act of his campaign was to mine the bridge, wait until the only remaining establishment hero wandered across it, press the detonator and barrel roll off into the sunset as Trump and Cruz stealthily high fived I'm lying, Cruz would never high five another human

The 42% figure Trump quotes is based on the idea that two people working 20 hour contracts is equal to one person in full employment. So while it's obviously not true, it does at least highlight the issue of the lack of full time employment available.

Does Kasich have an organization in SC/money post-NH? This might be a hollow 'victory' if he spent most of his resources just getting 2nd place. Bush seems to be investing in SC heavily, and has enough money to stay in the race as long as he can. I'm not sure what happens to Rubio if he has a poor showing in Nevada/SC. The pressure might be enormous to drop out before ST. I'm just not seeing how an establishment candidate emerges before Super Tuesday, and it might be too late to coalesce if Trump and Cruz gobble up the Super Tuesday states.

The pressure might be enormous to drop out before ST. Kasich has a fairly small super PAC, mid-sized campaign apparatus, and no real presence anywhere outside of New Hampshire. He's probably effectively the "weakest" of the four establishment candidates (soon to be three).

So - Trump won the nomination tonight right? With Kasich and Jeb! beating out Rubio, the establishment vote/money is going to continue to be split up until super Tuesday and Cruz can't touch Trump in states that aren't heavily evangelical. he just took more than half of the state's delegates and i'm pretty sure other primaries favour the first-past-the-post winner even more. With the media and establishment having already blown their loads with every trick to try to stump him, I don't think anything's going to be able to stop the Trump Train rolling all the way to the General the trump train is a steam engine it goes CHOO-S-A! CHOO-S-A!

He's not running for president, he's running to overthrow the government. I really can't explain any other reason a guy who the entire media snd establishment will do anything to take down also happens to be real estate rivals with Larry Silverstein, who made his name....on Fifth Avenue, and refused to allow Trump to rebuild the World Trade Center, one building of which is the only steel skyscraper to fall to fire in history. Then this guy gets a property across from the white house that'll be done in September, faults the Bushes, implies on Morning Joe that "there are other countries that were involved, not just Saudi" and when pressed says "oh you know who i mean, i have friends from there, i cant say but you know" Then tosses around the number 6 million and says he could shoot someone on fifth avenue, that Bush is partly responsible, at what point does Occam's razor begin to support Trump running to "take our country back" - from knowing war criminals? Doesn't it apply when the Republican frontrunner has a vicious anger toward Jeb and the Bushes, is THE rival commercial builder to the insurance collector on the towers, and says such things? Trump said on CNN’s New Day that he wouldn’t be apologizing for blaming George W. Bush for the 9/11 attacks, saying he had “advanced notice” that it was coming. “Look, his brother gets hit on, he’s a loyal person, he’s loyal to his brother,” Trump said of fellow GOP contender Jeb Bush. “But his brother made some mistakes.” “His brother could have made a mistake with the actual hit,” he continued. “They did know it was coming. George Tenet, the head of the CIA, told them it was coming. So they did have advanced notice.” How is the simplest solution to this set of facts not "inside job"? Someone wake me from this conspiratorial mood.
