Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

The rejection of Bush was the most influential development of the race to date. One year ago, insiders of both parties were unanimous that Jeb! would be the Republican nominee. But Republican voters didn't agree, sensing that a Clinton-Bush election would not go well for their side. The resulting free-for-all left Trump able to seize the lead for if not control of the nomination.

 

Clinton, by contrast, has a healthier (and more volatile) history with voters. Polls showed her favorables slightly ahead of her negatives when she formally launched her campaign last April. But her trajectory is unnerving. The new WSJ-NBC numbers have Clinton minus-24 (with 56 percent viewing her unfavorably and 32 percent favorably), almost double the gap just one month earlier.

 

I'm just saying America is much more dynastic, with those in power both entrenched and detached, than most people think.

 

I tend to agree with that analysis, but apathy equals consent to the status quo/

 

Clinton is in the middle of a contested primary. Her unfavorability will diminish once that's out of the way. So will Trump's, but his started a lot worse.

 

No, it doesn't. A good deal of people have low political efficacy

 

Clinton has a mud squad / dirty tricks team probably unparalleled inDemocratic history. As Hitlerry moves more and more into control of the Dem race they will be able to turn their cannons fully on Trump.

Nobody in the GOP field has had the guts to fully open up on the pig, because they all feel they may end up trying to romance part of his loony base.

Anybody with any thought now or ever of voting for the pig is ever ever ever going to vote for Hitlerry under any circumstances, so they can shit on Donald all they want with no risk of losing anyone who ever might have voted for her.

 

Yeah, he smoked when he was a Democrat. Then he wised up and quit smoking and became a Republican.

True idiocy is being a smoker today.

Haven't read the article yet but agree with most of this.
