Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

Seriously guys. We all learned in high school that the key to enlightened political discussion is Twitter posts and deflecting accusations to the opposing side. Get on his level or get out.

 

Add in some racist memes and threats of secession and it's like a Trump campaign staffer.

 

Well, he's got some, you know, "Russian" business dealings.

Just like anybody who has, you know, "American" business dealings means they have a "relationship" to Obama.

 

Hulk Hogan's lawyer:

 

You think Trump is yelling at Stone right now?

Roger Stone: Trump "Should Release His Tax Returns Immediately"

 

Now Trump just wants a "fair immigration policy." He's walking back the wall, the deportation force, etc. Basically the reasons he was nominated in the first place.

I have to guess that part of this is in advance of the debate, because she would have been able to paint his prior ideas as impractical.

 

Made a bet with a friend this weekend that Trump wouldn't make it to Nov. 8 and got 5-1 odds. For those interested in gambling on politics, how did I do?

 

He's gone this far and he's 4-5 points behind against a walking scandal time bomb. Why wouldn't he make it? I think you got hosed.

 

Damn. I was thinking that there's a chance he bows out to save face, claiming the election was rigged, than lose in a landslide (electorally speaking), which seems more and more likely. Plus, getting 5-1 on my money felt worth the risk.

The friend I made the bet with said it wouldn't because "something like that has never happened before." I responded, "you're right, because this election has been just like all the other ones."

 

He plays the, "I'm a winner" cartoon character on TV, but I suspect he will concede surprisingly gracefully, if indeed she defeats him. Trump enjoys the fight, but I think that, deep down, he's shocked he's gotten this far. He's trying to become a real candidate right now and win or lose with dignity, with some occasional relapses. (Like outing Joe and Mika today.)

And, again, he's losing by 4-5 points. That's surmountable.

 

I get it. "Both sides do it."
For anything I could point out about Trump and his supporters, you can point out something that Hillary or Obama and her or his supporters have done that's more or less similar.
So let's take that off the table.
Do you have any other defenses for any of these things?
IF you don't, STFU.
And God help you if you ever ridicule me again.

 

Can't you just call him "YankeeDork" or something and call it a day instead of lobbing threats over the Internet? Jeezus.
