    If we can elect Trump in 2016, can we get Jon Stewart in office sometime in the future?

    No thanks. Nor would he want it. Stewart handles criticism of any kind poorly.

    How did he get his own copy in the first place? No way in hell, I hope and pray, he was allowed to have his own camera in there during the interview. He either obtained it illegally or he's bluffing with 10-2 offsuit.

    If Trump thinks that 60 Minutes interview makes him look good, he's clearly not going to accept the election results. No surprise, but dude just lives in a fantasy world.

    Who didn't see this coming?


    EDIT: There's excerpts of this all over teh Twitterez from all the usual sources, but I won't clog the thread with them. But so far, the quotes from Trump appear to be SSDD.

    Not having known about that law, I do have to say, I don't really get it. Who cares what people wear when they go to vote? To make such an issue of it seems excessive.

    If people aren't making up their own minds when they're voting, that's their problem. It just means they were unsure of what they were going to do to begin with -- and who would really know if that were the case, or not, anyway?

    Trump's biggest issue has been losing the support of women voters from 2016 to 2020.

    In the past two weeks, he's publicly complained about Savannah Guthrie, Leslie Stahl and Kristen Welker, and begged women suburban voters to support him. oof.

    I guess it depends on what denominator you use. "Voter eligible" or "voting age." JFK-Nixon's 62.8% turnout is based on voting age (voter eligible would have been a somewhat higher number, likely around 70%).

    Bottom line: Turnout will not be "highest in a century" because it ain't topping 1960.
