    A socialist defeated Hillary's machine in 23 of 57 contests. A fucking socialist. Nobody not named "cranberry" actually wants to vote for her.

    Like a lot of things, it depends. Does he act as crazy as he's been as the GOP candidate because he doesn't have an entire section of his party who are wingnuts who either want a theocracy, a white supremacist country or to secede (or a combination)? Is he giving out 3 a.m. tweets on stupid crap to appeal to them?

    The pussy tape would be heavily damaging, but the wanting to hook up with married women wouldn't be, because he wouldn't have a religious wing getting outraged about it.

    It really depends on how much of what Trump is doing is his legitimate self and how much of it he's doing because he thinks he's appealing to the deplorable wing of his party.

    Trump running on a liberal platform is a much worse version of Bernie Sanders, who lost because his appeal was entirely to whites.

    Not to mention that there is no mechanism in the Democratic nomination process for the plurality stranglehold Trump was allowed to achieve.

    Through all the red and blue posturing, you're still going to come back to a man with no inner censor who cannot represent this country.

    Hey, the only reason I'd care about "R" or "D" behind the names on Nov. 8 is because I want the next president to have a Congress that will work with her.

    And? Also, you do understand that Trump is mentally ill right? You don't think Hillary would have exploited this? He made numerous comments that would not fly with Democrats. He can't help himself.

    She hasn't exactly exploited it as of Oct. 16. Before the latest meltdown(s), he was running reasonably close. And his behavior in the primaries was MUCH better.

    Embracing Putin is not exactly out of the Republican playbook, you know.

    It really wasn't that close. She has been leading every step of the way and was going to continue to lead every step of the way.

    He made fun of a handicapped person for God's sake. He would not be able to help himself. And she hasn't exploited it? She made mention of Miss Universe during the first debate and he went crazy for a week. They had the Kahns speak at the convention and he went crazy for a week. This will be a major route but she hasn't exploited it?
