Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

Yes, I am. Keep up.

 

What "intrigues" you about him? The funny nicknames he makes up? The first-grader's grasp of policy? Mocking a disabled reporter? His famously thin skin? The courting of white nationalists? The refusal to disavow the KKK? The bankruptcies?

 

Then you've really devalued your already lowly regarded opinions.

 

This is excellent.

 

Awww, that tweet is cute. Pretty stupid, but cute.

 

Hmmm ...

 

Inky, this is nothing against you personally. You rock. But this is just the kind of hot take that has numbed me to this whole thing. Of course Trump was going to say that. It's totally typically of him to say that. And somebody within 90 minutes is going to post a tweet regarding a new "discovery" about the Clinton emails. It's all just become too much.

What matters to me is how endangered we would be under Trump, how endangered we would be under Clinton, and whether either choice is going to change my life in some meaningful way after checks and balances are figured into the mix.

 

Wouldn't the Clintons call James Carville "a wonderful guy"?

 

Well, yeah, but they'd be more right.

 

Bill would say that Jeffery Epstein "throws a helluva good party!"

 

The one problem, though, is that if the election was done by total popular vote, the candidates would be doing little more than spending time in those three states, plus perhaps a couple of others, like Florida.

This way, at least, the smaller and middle-sized states potentially have a seat at the table. New Hampshire is an important state this election cycle. If it was just done by popular vote, it would be ignored.

 

Popular vote only matters when certain candidates win that and lose the Electoral College vote.
