I tend to agree with the Republican strategists quoted in the linked article, who are basically saying "if Trump's our nominee, we lose the Presidency and our majority in Congress".

Not sure where this belongs, so it goes here: Guy Who Didn't Invent Email Sues Gawker For Pointing Out He Didn't Invent Email quote:...no one denies that V.A. Shiva Ayyadurai -- an apparently very bright 14-year-old at the time -- wrote an email software program for the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ) in 1978. By all accounts, it was a perfectly decent email system that allowed the UMDNJ staff to send electronic messages. Further, no one doubts that, in 1981, Ayyadurai registered the copyright on his program, which was called EMAIL. The problems are that (1) email was invented long before 1978, (2) the copyright is merely on the specific software code, not the idea of email, and (3) while Ayyadurai may have independently recreated the basics of email (and even added a nice feature), none of his work was even remotely related to what later became the standards of email. What's most sickening about this is that as part of this new PR campaign, Ayyadurai is ridiculously arguing that the reason no one believes him isn't because he's simply wrong, but because they can't stand to believe that "a dark-skinned immigrant kid, 14 years old," invented email, and that it was done in "one of the poorest cities in the US" rather than at a famous university.

poptart_fairy posted:This is what weirds me out as well. Of all the stuff he's done and said it's something ten years ago which makes a bunch of his supporters snap? One major reason Republicans are freaking out, on a political-strategy level, is that white women - specifically married white women - traditionally vote Republican, and Trump admitting to sexual assault and trying to cheat on his newly-married, pregnant wife with a married woman may, at long last, alienate them from the Republican candidate.

It took me a minute to figure out that the drone was a red herring, since they're so often the source of the gently caress-ups in these videos. But no, Beardy McFly has plenty to screw him up without the drone entering into it. (I hope his arm's okay, those gullwing doors close at the drop of a hat.)

 You can (could?) make Trump's website display arbitrary text in the headline by appending the text to the end of the URL http://www.donaldjtrump.com/press-releases/archive/. For example, http://www.donaldjtrump.com/press-releases/archive/I%2C%20Donald%20Trump%2C%20am%20a%20Communist%20spy or http://www.donaldjtrump.com/press-releases/archive/What%20does%20FiveThirtyEight%20Mean%2C%20Anyway. I'm hearing that it's been fixed, though.
