I don't know Davis. I started reading an article about this on MSN that I had to stop reading because it really started to freak me out. These dudes are armed man. They have militias in every state and they are itching to get things going.
If the US comes apart the world is fucked.

This guy is stirring up a lot of hate in the US. Its ugly. The conversation is way too ugly and out of hand on Trump's part.

^I didn't mean to downplay it. It's just so out of the box it's hard to fathom. But......

**Humbert** · 27-10-2016, 09:56 PM

Yeah, I know it's had to get your head around it. Some in congress are already talking about hearings and impeachment. In the Senate some are saying no confirmation of Supreme Court justices by a Democratic president. Death threats against Clinton. Feels very ominous.

Entertainment break gentlemen.
REALLY funny at 5.20-5.40

Where’s that fvckin’ putz longway? He might enjoy this post.

If you wanted to know why Kellyanne Conway admitted last weekend that Trump is behind, here you go. It’s because he is, according to the campaign’s own data.

Silver’s “polls-only” model gives Clinton an 84.7 percent chance of winning this morning, with a projection of 333 electoral votes.

in other words, Trump’s staff knows he’s losing. Badly. “Nate Silver’s results have been similar to ours,” says Parscale, referring to the polling analyst and his predictions at FiveThirtyEight, “except they lag by a week or two because he’s relying on public polls.”

There’s one other way to narrow the gap — convince some of Clinton’s voters to stay home, pushing down her margins and giving those hidden Trump voters a fighting chance of making up what’s left of the difference. One of Trump’s advisors was surprisingly frank about that strategy:

“We have three major voter suppression operations under way,” says a senior official. They’re aimed at three groups Clinton needs to win overwhelmingly: idealistic white liberals, young women, and African Americans.

But never mind that. The important question is, is there evidence that the three groups named in the excerpt are in fact being suppressed? Well, here’s some data from the NYT’s polling of three key swing states:

With margins like that, a lot of blacks would have to be “suppressed” for black turnout to drop to the point where Clinton is in danger.

One question from all of this, noted by a Twitter buddy: Why on earth would Team Trump telegraph their strategy this way, let alone give it a charged name like “voter suppression”? All that’s going to do is inflame liberals and hand them an easy talking point to rally these groups.

This worries me more than the talk of storming the capital. Even with guns these people are so unorganized from a military standpoint they couldn't take a National Park--witness Oregon a few months ago. Granted, they could cause a lot of damage with guns, but the empire would not tremble.

Shutting down the government is something else, in which case there are choices, but none good.

The Rethugs have gotten to the point that they would rather destroy the country rather than live with the decision of the voters.

Mike Pence’s Airplane Skids Off Runway At LaGuardia, No Injuries

A campaign plane carrying U.S. Republican vice presidential nominee Mike Pence skidded off the runway after landing at New York City’s LaGuardia Airport on Thursday.

There were no injuries, the campaign said.

Live television footage showed Pence standing in the rain near the plane among emergency vehicles, talking to police and other officials.

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump called Pence to check on him after the incident, the campaign said.

“Mr. Trump did reach out to Gov. Pence. He’s glad that everyone on board is safe,” Trump spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham said in an emailed statement.

Trump called him from his motorcade while en route to a rally in Geneva, Ohio.

MSNBC said the plane, with about 30 people onboard, was coming from Fort Dodge, Iowa, where Pence had participated in a campaign event.

The posts above confirm the findings of this survey, Clinton voters are just plain ignorant and live in a lalaland generated by their biased media.

Poll Shows Voters Are Broadly Ignorant About Issues That Impact Them – Just Facts

Results by Age, Sex, and Choice for President

The poll also recorded voters’ age, sex, and their choice for president of the United States. This allows the poll to pinpoint segments of society that are most and least informed about specific issues.
The results show deep partisan and demographic divides, with different groups being more or less knowledgeable depending upon the questions.
In total, the rates at which voters gave the correct answers varied from a high of 43% for Trump voters to a low of 31% for Clinton voters:

43% for Trump voters.
37% for 35 to 64 year olds.
37% for males.
35% for undecided voters.
34% for females.
34% for 65+ year olds.
31% for Clinton voters.

Cue the photos of nazis.

And of course the standard recourse to misogyny is just as false.

The Sex Question

This poll also contained a question that asked: “All other things being equal, if you were faced with a choice between a male and a female presidential candidate, who would you vote for?” Each voter was given the option to reply “Male,” “Female,” “It does not matter,” or “Unsure.”

Overall, 69% of voters said “it does not matter,” 15% preferred a female, 12% preferred a male, 3% were unsure, and 1% refused to answer.

Male voters and Trump voters were more likely than any other groups to say “it does not matter,” at 73% and 72% respectively.

And outside lalaland, here in the real world, its the females who are far more sexist.

Another notable outcome is that both 12% of men and 12% of women preferred a male, but 9% of men and 20% of women preferred a female.

So you are basing this statement off of one poll from some unheard of website? The demographics of Trump supporters tell the real tail. They are overwhelmingly not college graduates and are basically white working class.

If you think those people are more intelligent then the many college educated people who tend to support Clinton then you are a bigger moron than I already thought.

Just watch some video of a Trump rally FFS. Some well informed Trump supporters here;

I love the guy who really wants to get to the bottom of why Obama wasn't in his office on 9/11.

**bsnub** · 28-10-2016, 10:30 AM

^ That same guy also said that Bill Clinton got AIDS from Magic Johnson.

You can't make that shit up!!

Well the facts don't match your opinions; Trump voters are better factually informed than Clinton voters by a large degree.

Here you go, some idiotic Shillary supporters demonstrate exactly why they will be voting for Shillary.

Trump voters support a candidate who isn't even factually informed!

The abandoned white working class who have been fucked over by the elites. Slackers who thought they could get along with no skills and little education forever. Globalization was happening in the eighties, the auto industry was a joke run by idiots, steel went to China, the apparel industry went to asia. Did these people adapt? No they drank more beer, bought more guns, played more video games and became economic basket cases ill epuiped to deal with a changing world. Now they are lining up behind Trump who is promising to restore them to their rightful place in world where America kicks ass again. What load of shit he has sold them. All he has done is stir up hate and focused their anger on scapegoats; the elites, the liberal media, illegal immigrants, blacks who stand up against institutional racism, muslims, gays etc.
