Trump Casinos’ Tax Debt Was $30 Million. Then Chris Christie Took Office.

http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/trump-casinos%E2%80%99-tax-debt-was-dollar30-million-then-chris-christie-took-office/ar-BBvHIH3?li=BBmkt5R&ocid=spartandhp

Some cliffs: Trash spouts about how "we" (US taxpayers) are getting ripped by Mexico and China.
How did the taxpayers of New Jersey fair with Trash and the 30 million his casinos owed?

But the year after Governor Christie, a Republican, took office, the tone of the litigation shifted. The state entertained settlement offers. And in December 2011, after six years in court, the state agreed to accept just $5 million, roughly 17 cents on the dollar of what auditors said the casinos owed.

The Times discovered the agreement during a review of the thousands of documents filed in the bankruptcies of Mr. Trump’s casinos. The taxes went unpaid from 2002 through 2006, during which time Mr. Trump was leading the company as chairman and, until 2005, as its chief executive. He reaped millions of dollars in fees and bonuses from the company, even as it underperformed competitors, lost money every year and saw its stock collapse.

After the Trump casinos filed for bankruptcy protection in 2004 for the third time, state officials noticed the company had not been filling out the required schedule for the minimum tax assessment. The Trump casinos had reported losing money and paid a little more than $600,000 in state income taxes in 2002, and only $1,500 in 2003. State auditors determined the Trump casinos should have paid $8.8 million in alternative minimum taxes for those two years, according to court records.


No wonder Wall St Fat Boy Bridge Closer is so pro-Trash, he probably expects to get a top post in Trash's cabinet, like Atty General, or head of FBI, SEC, etc.

Warning of election fraud, Trump sparks fear that his backers may intimidate minority voters

In remarks with strong racial overtones, Donald Trump told a mainly white rural crowd in Pennsylvania on Friday that vote fraud could cheat him out of victory and vowed to dispatch police who support him to monitor polls in “certain parts” of the state.“

We’re going to have unbelievable turnout, but we don’t want to see people voting five times, folks,” the Republican presidential nominee said at a rally in Altoona, Pa.

After months of racially charged violence between Trump supporters and protesters at his rallies, the comments raised the specter of confrontations on election day in precincts with many minority voters.

Trump, who previously suggested the Nov. 8 election would be rigged for Democratic rival Hillary Clinton, said he’d “heard some stories about certain parts of the state, and we have to be very careful.”

After years of courting White Nationalists and Isolationists with words but less so with actions, the Republican Party is now reaping the consequences as those people have decided to look for someone they have confidence will actually do something about the woes they've been told to be angry about.

They've been told by mainstream Republicans Political Correctness is one of the biggest dangers facing our country, so they've chosen the least "politically correct" candidate to represent them.

They've been told by mainstream Republicans to fear and resent immigrants, so they've chosen the candidate who sounds like he will be the toughest on immigration.

They've been told by mainstream Republicans to fear Muslims, so they've chosen the candidate who sounds like he will be the toughest on Muslims.

They've been told by mainstream Republicans that the Democrats are coming for their guns, so they've chosen the candidate that seems likely to be the toughest against gun legislation.

They've been told by mainstream Republicans that government is bad, so they've chosen the candidate that is least associated with government.

They've been told by mainstream Republicans that intellectualism, rationalism and compromise are signs of weakness, so they've chosen the candidate that displays the least of these characteristics.

This is not some unexpected uprising of fringe right wing extremists. This is the direct result of conservative politicians coddling propaganda channels that stoking the fears, paranoia, and tribalism of poor and unintelligent white people. None of them seemed to have any problem with the amount of air time the likes of Michelle Malkin or Ann Coulter or, hell, Donald Trump himself get on FOX News saying the very things they cringe at when Trump says them today, all while their while their limp-dick, braindead hosts smiled and nodded along.



(And yes, the same thing could happen to Democrats.)

What to expect from the new Team Trump

from the Washington Post’s reporting:


While Trump respects [campaign chairman Paul] Manafort, the aides said, he has grown to feel “boxed in” and “controlled” by people who barely know him. Moving forward, he plans to focus intensely on rousing his voters at rallies and through media appearances.

Trump’s turn away from Manafort is in part a reversion to how he ran his campaign in the primary with then-campaign manager Corey Lewandowski. Lewandowski’s mantra was “let Trump be Trump” and Trump wants to get back to that type of campaign culture, the aides said.


That’s right, as far as the Republican nominee is concerned, Americans have seen a constrainedversion of Donald J. Trump in recent months. This has been the GOP candidate at his most guarded.

In other words, with his new team in place, Trump intends to stop pulling his punches and start beingeven more outlandish in the presidential campaign’s final 12 weeks.

It’s not quite an acceptance of defeat, but it’s something similar: a decision to stop caring what might appeal to a broad national audience and start doing what makes the candidate feel good.

And to that end, Trump has chosen a CEO who will encourage him to do precisely what he wants to do anyway. The New York Times’ report (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/18/us/politics/donald-trump-stephen-bannon-paul-manafort.html) added:

Mr. Bannon has no experience with political campaigns, but he represents the type of bare-knuckled fighter that the candidate had in Corey Lewandowski, his combative former campaign manager, who was fired on June 20.

Mr. Bannon has been a supporter of Mr. Trump’s pugilistic instincts, which the candidate has made clear in interviews he is uncertain about suppressing.

He is also deeply mistrustful of the political establishment, and his website has often been critical of Speaker Paul D. Ryan and Senator Mitch McConnell, the majority leader.

It’s NOT the economy, stupid! New study shows what’s really rallying Trump supporters

Why are blue-collar whites angry?

The media have an answer for that too — essentially that these folks have been the primary casualties of globalization and immigration, Trump’s twin bugaboos. But a recent paper by Gallup senior economist Johnathan Rothwell (http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2822059) challenges this assumption.

From Rothwell’s data,

those who view Trump most favorably were not particularly battered by globalization or immigration. In fact, they were surprisingly well-off financially

— better off than those who supported Trump’s Republican rivals. Maybe that is why Trump hasn’t really talked much about his economic plan. He knows it doesn’t matter much to his base.

What Rothwell discovered is that those who view Trump favorably

are racially isolated as well as isolated from immigrants.

Their grievances aren’t so much economic or even sociological as psychological.

These older whites are a group in despair — shrouded by a cloud of pessimism, loss and disempowerment,

as Rothwell describes the nationalist tide in other countries similar to the one that is now bearing Trump.

And they are angry about it — even hateful about it. You don’t hear a lot in the media about the non-economic subtext of this anger because that would require reporters to criticize ordinary Americans, not just Trump — though

Trump can be hateful precisely because so many of his supporters are hateful, whether you think that hate is warranted or not.

It is, however, just to reiterate the point,

not warranted by financial difficulties.

These folks are

angry about their condition in the society, about a lack of hopefulness in the future. They want scapegoats. And they want the liberty to scald those scapegoats with impunity.

Middle East takes note of Trump’s conspiracy theories

In the New York Times yesterday, there was an interesting piece (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/17/opinion/how-do-trumps-conspiracy-theories-go-over-in-the-middle-east-dangerously.html) from Michael Wahid Hanna, a senior fellow at the Century Foundation and at the Center on Law and Security at N.Y.U.’s School of Law, and Daniel Benaim, a fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations. They made the point that when the Republican presidential hopeful shares one of his many conspiracy theories – including his recent assertion that President Obama and Hillary Clinton are the original “founders” of ISIS – Americans aren’t the only folks who notice.

Public opinion has a profound impact on American interests in the Middle East and around the world.

The United States’ military strategy against the Islamic State depends on mobilizing local actors to lead the fight on the ground. Imagine how much harder that is when people have been led to believe that President Obama created the group.

Or think of the added danger to American troops in Iraq, where Shiite militant groups who are fighting the Islamic State remain deeply wary of the United States military.

Just this weekend, Hezbollah’s leader, Hassan Nasrallah, publicly endorsed Mr. Trump’s remarks:

“This is an American presidential candidate. This was spoken on behalf of the Republican Party. He has data and documents.”


I can think of a few GOP lawmakers who likely winced after seeing that “spoken on behalf of the Republican Party” comment.

The point, of course, is that the American mainstream may know not to take conspiracy theories from the likes of Bachmann, Gohmert, and Trump seriously, but many abroad have no similar understanding.

Former Breitbart News Spokesman Rails Against New Trump CEO: A "Pathological Liar"

Kurt Bardella: Campaign Is About To Become More "Dangerous," "Combative," And "Divisive"

http://cloudfront.mediamatters.org/static/uploader/image/2016/08/17/bannon-bordella-trump.jpg


Former Breitbart News spokesman Kurt Bardella says his old boss Stephen Bannon, who yesterday took a leave of absence from the right-wing news site to serve as chief executive of Donald Trump's presidential campaign, is a “pathological liar” whose hiring signals a “dangerous" and “combative” turn for the campaign.

Bardella served as a spokesman for Breitbart News from 2013 to early 2016. He cut ties (http://www.politico.com/blogs/on-media/2016/03/breitbart-spokesperson-parts-ways-with-website-220645) after Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields accused then-Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski of grabbing her arm.

He said then he objected to Breitbart’s treatment of Fields, whose accounts of the incident were questioned (http://mediamatters.org/blog/2016/08/17/how-trump-s-new-campaign-chief-executive-prioritized-trump-over-his-own-reporter-breitbart-news/212453) by Breitbart News LLC CEO Bannon. She eventually left the website.

“It signals a dangerous and, even more so, combative and divisive turn,” Bardella told Media Matters about the hiring of Bannon by Trump.

“It’s an indication that this campaign, as negative as it has been, is going to be even more so going forward.

If the media thought that their relationship with the Trump campaign was challenging before this, it’s going to be 10 times worse now."

Indeed, Breitbart News' editorial stance has been defined (http://mediamatters.org/blog/2016/08/17/what-you-need-know-about-trump-campaign-s-new-chief-executive-and-his-bigoted-website/212456) by its bigotry and sycophantic coverage of Donald Trump.

Bardella also described Bannon as a “pathological liar who has a temperament that governs by bullying and intimidation and functions very much like a dictator at Breitbart.”

He said voters should take note of what this says about Trump’s judgement and approach as a leader.

“For those who didn’t enjoy working for Corey Lewandowski because of his temperament, Stephen Bannon makes Corey look like a golden doodle."

You Want to Know How Bleak Donald Trump's Chances Are? Take a Look at This


New aggregate polling shows a Clinton lead in key battleground states.

http://www.alternet.org/files/screen_shot_2016-08-17_at_11.36.47_am.png

There are several ways to look at this.


New Hampshire is the state that currently gives Clinton the victory, and she’s winning it by a comfy six points.

If Clinton were to win every state that Donald Trump currently leads in by that same 6-point margin, the electoral score would end up 393-145. And if you think that winning South Carolina or Missouri seems kinda crazy, why would Trump winning New Hampshire or Virginia seem more plausible? Personally, neither seem plausible to me. The remaining battlegrounds are all in that 4-point-margin area. But then again, isn’t Trump doing everything possible to gift Clinton more battlegrounds? Georgia not good enough? Here, let me throw in South Carolina as a sweetener! Still not satisfied, how about Utah? Here, have a Texas (http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/main/2016/08/trump-leads-by-only-6-in-texas.html)!

Clinton has built quite an electoral cushion. Nevada will go blue, I guarantee it. Polls always underrepresent Democrats (and in particular, Latinos, in the state). But beyond that, there are a lot of supposed battleground states safely in the blue column. And yet where is Trump? He certainly isn’t advertising (not that it would matter). Instead, he’s spending valuable campaign time in places like Connecticut and Maine (where at best he’d get zero and one electoral votes, respectively), and he’s spending his days twitterstorming against the media, fellow Republicans, and Gold Star families. Meanwhile, don’t look for campaign field offices in battleground states. They don’t exist.

It’s not just that Trump is losing by big margins in those battleground states—he can’t even break 40 percent in most of them. His numbers, per the aggregate: Colorado, 37, Florida 43, Iowa 37, Michigan 34, New Hampshire 36, North Carolina 41, Ohio 42, Virginia 38, and Wisconsin 36. In other words, he’s barely getting the support of one-third of voters, with little effort to try and expand beyond the Trumpian dead-ender base.

The trendlines in most of those states remain in our favor. There isn’t a state in which Trump is making up ground. Quite the opposite, in fact.

Funny thing is, the aggregate includes shitty or unknown pollsters that mitigate Trump’s number. For example, in Virginia, the latest polls are WaPo: Clinton +8, Marist: Clinton +13, CBS/YouGov: Clinton +13, and … RABA Research, Trump +4. What the fuck is “RABA Research”? Who knows! But somehow, all that polling comes out to Clinton +7.

Everyone on social media is mocking this Trump lawyer’s #SaysWho fiasco — and it’s a scream

Trump attorney Michael Cohen — until recently best known for stating that a husband can’t rape his own wife (http://www.rawstory.com/2015/07/attorney-for-donald-trump-denies-marital-rape-exists-and-threatens-to-mess-up-reporters-life/)— may have jumped to the top of the list when it comes to the what was the worst possible 30 seconds by a spokesperson for the Trump campaign this election season with his “Says who” retort to questions about polls on CNN Wednesday afternoon.

With lawyerly calm and bluntness, Donald Trump’s attorney attempted to pretend (http://www.rawstory.com/2016/08/says-who-watch-donald-trumps-lawyer-hilariously-play-dumb-when-told-client-is-losing-badly-in-the-polls/) that the polls showing the campaign collapsing didn’t exist by swatting away CNN host Brianna Keilar’s questions about the numbers, repeatedly saying, “Says who?”

The childish replies — reminding many of Sarah Palin’s “All of them, Katie” response to Katie Couric on which papers she reads — naturally delighted social media quipsters who were quick to point out:

“When your campaign slogan is ‘SaysWho’ your campaign is over.”

With some calling “#SaysWho” the “greatest hashtag ever,” the pile-on began for another Trump spokesperson failure day — another day wasted trying to get the campaign on track.

Consider the latest Quinnipiac polling, asreported (http://www.politico.com/blogs/swing-states-2016-election/2016/08/poll-clinton-trump-colorado-iowa-virginia-227121) by Politico yesterday afternoon:

Hillary Clinton holds double-digit leads among likely voters in Colorado and Virginia and

a narrow edge over Donald Trump in Iowa, according to a trio of battleground-state Quinnipiac University polls released Wednesday.

In the head-to-head matchups, Clinton leads Trump 49 percent to 39 percent in Colorado.

The race is closest in Iowa, where Clinton holds a 3-point lead over the Republican nominee – 47 percent to 44 percent.

But in Virginia, where Trump will campaign Saturday in Fredericksburg, Clinton leads by 12 points – 50 percent to 38 percent.


The full Quinnipiac report, including crosstabs, is online here (https://www.qu.edu/news-and-events/quinnipiac-university-poll/2016-presidential-swing-state-polls/release-detail?ReleaseID=2373).

Note, among all of the major pollsters, Quinnipiac has generally published results favorable to Republicans this year, making yesterday’s data that much more discouraging for the right.

Ahead of briefing, Trump wary of intelligence agencies


During an interview with Fox News, Trump was asked about his upcoming intelligence briefing and whether he does “trust intelligence.”

“Not so much from the people that have been doing it for our country.

Look what’s happened over the last ten years.

Look what’s happened over the years.

It’s been catastrophic,” he said in response.

“And in fact, I won’t use some of the people that are sort of your standards, you know, just use them, use them, use them.

Very easy to use them, but I won’t use them because they’ve made such bad decisions.”


At a certain level, some criticisms of the CIA, for example, are understandable. Credible critics of the intelligence community can point to real and important missteps, and no one should suggest the agencies are beyond reproach.

But let’s not miss the forest for the trees here. Donald J. Trump, if elected president, is inclined to ignore “the people that have been doing it for our country.” The “it” in that sentence refers to the collection of sensitive security information provided to American policymakers.

The next question is obvious: if the GOP candidate doesn’t want to rely on U.S. intelligence agencies, who exactly would Trump listen to when making critical security decisions?

Indeed, it shouldn’t be lost on anyone that

Trump considers Alex Jones (http://mediamatters.org/blog/2016/08/12/totally-synced-how-donald-trump-and-alex-jones-conspiracy-theory-movement-speaks-one-voice/212362), the National Enquirer (http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/the-convention-over-trump-returns-focus-cruzs-dad), and Breitbart News (http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/trump-offers-hilarious-proof-back-conspiracy-theory) to be credible outlets,

but the Republican nominee adopts a far more skeptical posture when it comes to the Central Intelligence Agency.

Placing more value in crowds than polls is a recipe for failure

Fox News host Eric Bolling is sick of polls. Not only are they wrong, he said, but it’s the size of crowds at Donald Trump’s rallies that’s much more important.

“We have to stop with these polls, they’re insane,” Bolling declared on “The Five” on Wednesday (skip to 5:06 in the video above for this part). “You look at a Trump rally and there’s 12, 15,000, 10,000 people and then you look at Hillary Clinton and you have, I don’t know, 1,500, 2,000.”


Donald Trump himself expressed a similar sentiment (http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/trumps-baffled-why-am-i-not-doing-better-the-polls) in late June, telling conservative radio host Mike Gallagher how impressed he is with the “massive” crowds that turn out for his events.

“I walked out of one [recent event], and I said, ‘I don’t see how I’m not leading,’” :lol

the Republican candidate said at the time.

Trump added (http://www.politico.com/story/2016/06/trump-polls-performance-224982), “We have thousands of people standing outside trying to get in, and they’re great people and they have such spirit for the country and love for the country, and I’m saying, you know,

‘Why am I not doing better in the polls?’” :lol

The answer, of course, is that crowd size isn’t all that relevant.

But crowd size is proof of a candidate with a credible base of core supporters. When it comes to winning a national presidential race, that’s not enough. The most reliable measure of meaningful, broad support is public-opinion polling. To assume that data is wrong because it seems to contradict crowd size is to find importance in the wrong measurement.

it may be easier to believe “crowds = victory” than to accept polls showing your side trailing, but that doesn’t change the fact it’s a recipe for failure.

“An electoral disaster waiting to happen”: Demographics expert predicts Trump loss even “if 99 percent of white, non-college-educated men turned out to vote”

“We’re looking at a margin among college-educated white men for him that’s less than half what Romney won”

In 1980, white voters were 88 percent of the electorate. By 2012, the white vote was down to 72 percent.

While his campaign implodes, with the the third shift in campaign leadership in as many months this week, a new New York Times report (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/19/us/politics/donald-trump-white-men.html?_r=0) outlines just how improbable a win on the back of white voters will be for Trump in 2016.

The last Republican presidential nominee, Mitt Romney, held a 27-point edge among white men to carry the male vote over all, despite losing the election to President Obama.

Romney won white men who have a college education or higher, a group that votes at a higher rate than those without college degrees, by 21 points. In one crucial swing state, Ohio, Romney won men in Ohio by seven percentage points (http://www.cnn.com/election/2012/results/state/OH/) on the strength of the white male vote and still lost the state, 48 percent to 51 percent.

According to the Times, the situation is looking even worse for Trump.

“If Mr. Trump is only doing as well or worse than Mr. Romney did with white men, he will never make up the votes he is losing among women and nonwhites,” the Times reported.

Trump campaign chair Manafort organized protesters who threw rocks at US troops

On Wednesday, we learned that Ukrainian authorities have accused Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort of organizing protests against a NATO military exercise in Ukraine on behalf of the pro-Russian Party of Regions.Now we’re learning about some of the details of that protest and they are not pretty.

Fusion.net talked with (http://fusion.net/story/338016/trump-manafort-marines-nato-protests/) Lt. Colonel Tom Doman, who was one of the U.S. soldiers who was in Ukraine to help plan the NATO exercise, dubbed Sea Breeze 2006. When he and 112 of his fellow soldiers were en route to a NATO compound, anti-NATO protesters descended upon their vehicles.

“We had rocks thrown at us,” Doman tells Fusion. “Rocks hit Marines. Buses were rocked back and forth. We were just trying to get to our base.”

This revelation adds some color to a memo that leaked earlier this week that revealed a senior Ukrainian prosecutor is alleging that Manafort in 2006 orchestrated these anti-NATO protests, which eventually forced NATO to cancel military exercises in Ukraine and helped raised the profile of Party of Regions chief Viktor Yanukovych.

Trump Just Stabbed His Own Supporters In The Back By Apologizing For Using Painful Words


Donald Trump may have alienated his few remaining supporters by saying that he regrets using words that hurt people during his presidential campaign.

http://15130-presscdn-0-89.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Trump-apology.jpg

While claiming that he is not politically correct, Donald Trump just apologized for using painful words that may have hurt people.

Shortly after this near-apology, Trump promised to build a wall to keep Mexicans from coming into the United States.

Donald Trump is spinning himself in circles.

Apparently, the almost apology was designed to get people to forget all of the vile statements that he has made during the presidential campaign.

The problem is that those statements and the lack of “political correctness” on Trump’s part were the reasons most often given by his supporters for liking him.

New Bombshell Emails Show Pro-Russia Trump Advisers May Have Violated Federal Law

It should be no surprise why Donald Trump has made pro-Russia comments and policy proposals


According to a bombshell report dropped by the Associated Press on Thursday, advisers of Donald Trump conducted an undisclosed “covert influence campaign for pro-Russian Ukraine government” from 2012-2014.The AP’s tweet:

Emails: Trump campaign chief orchestrated lobbying for Ukraine’s pro-Russian government. https://t.co/dZ078UdJWJ pic.twitter.com/47a9qybTDE (https://t.co/47a9qybTDE)— AP Politics (@AP_Politics) August 18, 2016 (https://twitter.com/AP_Politics/status/766417577786609664)

According to the AP, the emails show that Paul Manafort and his deputy, Rick Gates, worked on a “covert Washington lobbying operation on behalf of Ukraine’s ruling political party, attempting to sway American public opinion in favor of the country’s pro-Russian government.”

The AP report (http://bigstory.ap.org/article/6eed1ef61eb744e1aac584f8ac1f7247/trump-advisers-waged-covert-influence-campaign):


Emails obtained by The Associated Press shed new light on the activities of a firm run by Donald Trump’s campaign chairman.

They show it directly orchestrated a covert Washington lobbying operation on behalf of Ukraine’s ruling political party, attempting to sway American public opinion in favor of the country’s pro-Russian government.Paul Manafort and his deputy, Rick Gates, never disclosed their work as foreign agents between 2012 and 2014 as required under federal law.

The lobbying included attempts to gain positive press coverage of Ukrainian officials in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and AP.

Another goal: undercutting American public sympathy for the imprisoned rival of Ukraine’s president.

The men have said they were not doing work that required them to register as foreign agents. Neither commented Thursday.

As AP notes, federal law requires U.S. lobbyists who have represented foreign governments to publicly disclose their work. If the two Trump officials are found in violation of the law, they could face up to five years in prison.

My thoughts are that whoever is running his campaign is insignificant compared to his law and order theme this week. I think he should try for more of the black vote (from his Milwaukee speech). Maybe some are fed up with how things are going in the inner cities under decades of Democrat governing. I am glad that he stated his regret at saying the wrong things especially that which caused personal pain. Anyways, Reck, I commend you for wanting to at least hear an opposing view. So many here don't even want to hear it and wish me gone. My time with hubby's hot spot is over.

Alex Jones is Excited by Trump’s Retreat From Our Fact-Based Reality

http://15130-presscdn-0-89.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/alex-jones-nwo.jpg


Trump’s complete surrender to the fantasy world of paranoia and conspiracy theories has Alex Jones very excited.

Yes, Alex Jones is excited by Trump’s retreat from our fact-based reality into a Breitbart-based reality.

It hardly needs be said the two have nothing to do with one another.

As CNN’s Brian Stelter put it (http://mediamatters.org/video/2016/08/17/cnns-stelter-trump-having-breitbart-executive-campaign-were-going-see-most-fringy-ideas-bubble/212454), the addition of Breitbart’s Stephen Bannon as chief executive of the Trump campaign means

“nothing is off limits now,” and “we’re going to see the most fringy ideas, the most right-wing ideas bubble up to the surface.”

And you thought it was bad before.

According to Jones, the addition of Bannon means a “globalist’s nightmare” because of Bannon’s focus on “a globalist New World Order takeover program.”

This is Bannon’s milieu, a place so out there that even Tolkien’s elves and orcs wouldn’t feel at home.

Because as Jones says,

“Just because the old mainstream media calls us conspiracy theorist when we cover facts, :lol doesn’t mean we should then bow down to them.”

Pat Buchanan: If Trump Loses, There Could Be A Revolution

In a column yesterday, Pat Buchanan warned (http://www.wnd.com/2016/08/yes-the-system-is-rigged/) that if Donald Trump loses the election in November, America could experience a revolution.
Buchanan, citing Trump’s recent suggestion that the election could be “rigged (http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/donald-trumps-new-conspiracy-theory-general-election-might-be-rigged),” said that if Hillary Clinton defeats Trump, “would that not suggest there is something fraudulent about American democracy, something rotten in the state?”

“[T]he Republican electorate should tell its discredited and rejected ruling class: If we cannot get rid of you at the ballot box, then tell us how, peacefully and democratically, we can be rid of you?” he continued. “You want Trump out? How do we get you out? The Czechs had their Prague Spring. The Tunisians and Egyptians their Arab Spring. When do we have our American Spring?”

Buchanan then quoted John F. Kennedy’s remarks (http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/?pid=9100) on U.S.-Latin American relations: “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.”

“I’m afraid the election is going to be rigged,” Donald Trump told voters in Ohio and Sean Hannity on Fox News. And that hit a nerve.

“Dangerous,” “toxic,” came the recoil from the media.

Trump is threatening to “delegitimize” the election results of 2016.

Well, if that is what Trump is trying to do, he has no small point. For consider what 2016 promised and what it appears about to deliver.

This longest of election cycles has rightly been called the Year of the Outsider. It was a year that saw a mighty surge of economic populism and patriotism, a year when a 74-year-old socialist senator set primaries ablaze with mammoth crowds that dwarfed those of Hillary Clinton.

It was the year that a non-politician, Donald Trump, swept Republican primaries in an historic turnout, with his nearest rival an ostracized maverick in his own Republican caucus, Sen. Ted Cruz.

More than a dozen Republican rivals, described as the strongest GOP field since 1980, were sent packing. This was the year Americans rose up to pull down the establishment in a peaceful storming of the American Bastille.

But if it ends with a Clintonite restoration and a ratification of the same old Beltway policies, would that not suggest there is something fraudulent about American democracy, something rotten in the state?

…

Specifically, the Republican electorate should tell its discredited and rejected ruling class: If we cannot get rid of you at the ballot box, then tell us how, peacefully and democratically, we can be rid of you?

You want Trump out? How do we get you out?

The Czechs had their Prague Spring. The Tunisians and Egyptians their Arab Spring. When do we have our American Spring?

…

And if, as the polls show we might, we get Clinton – and TPP, and amnesty, and endless migrations of Third World peoples who consume more tax dollars than they generate, and who will soon swamp the Republicans’ coalition – what was 2016 all about?

Would this really be what a majority of Americans voted for in this most exciting of presidential races?

“Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable,” said John F. Kennedy.

Michael Moore: Trump’s Presidential Bid Was Always Fake

Donald Trump is currently sabotaging his presidential bid because he never wanted the Oval Office in the first place.

The whole campaign had begun as a tactic to give him leverage in ongoing negotiations with NBC over his Apprentice deal, Moore claims.
“I know this for a fact,” he writes, though cites no sources.

“I’m certainly not saying I ever overheard anything at those agencies or in the hallways of NBC or anywhere else. But there are certain people reading this right now, they know who they are, and they know that every word in the following paragraphs actually happened,” he adds.

Moore’s argument is that a campaign that was never meant to be politically credible but was intended to boost his business brand ended up doing the exact opposite, much to Trump’s surprise.

NBC promptly severed their relationship with Trump over his inflammatory remarks last June and meanwhile his poll numbers soared.

Moore continues (http://www.alternet.org/election-2016/trump-self-sabotage-campaign?src=newsletter1061977):

Calling Mexicans “rapists” should have disqualified him on Day One (or for saying Obama wasn’t born here, as he did in 2011). No, it took 13 months of racist, sexist, stupid comments before he finally undid himself with the trifecta of attacking the family of a slain soldier, ridiculing the Purple Heart and suggesting that the pro-gun crowd assassinate Hillary Clinton.

By this past weekend, the look on his face said it all—“I hate this! I want my show back!” But it was too late. He was damaged goods, his brand beyond repair, a worldwide laughing stock—and worse, a soon-to-be loser.

She wants to be America’s Angela Merkel. By the way, for the price of supporting 1 refugee in the United States, we could support 12 in a safe zone in the Middle East.

Trump’s Empire: a Maze of Debts and Opaque Ties

he owns have at least $650 million in debt — twice the amount than can be gleaned from public filings he has made as part of his bid for the White House. The Times’s inquiry also found that Mr. Trump’s fortunes depend deeply on a wide array of financial backers, including one he has cited in attacks during his campaign.

Mr. Trump would have substantial sway over monetary and tax policy, as well as the power to make appointments that would directly affect his own financial empire. He would also wield influence over legislative issues that could have a significant impact on his net worth, and would have official dealings with countries in which he has business interests.

Yet The Times’s examination underscored how much of Mr. Trump’s business remains shrouded in mystery. He has declined to disclose his tax returns or allow an independent valuation of his assets.

a substantial portion of his wealth is tied up in three passive partnerships that owe an additional $2 billion to a string of lenders, including those that hold the loan on the Avenue of the Americas building. If those loans were to go into default, Mr. Trump might not be held personally liable, but the value of his investments would sink.

If Mr. Trump were to use a blind trust, the professor said, it would be “like putting a gold watch in a box and pretending you don’t know it is in there.”

“I am the king of debt,” Mr. Trump once said on CNN. “I love debt.” But in his career, debt has sometimes gotten the better of him, leading to at least four business bankruptcies.

Mr. Trump’s opaque portfolio of business ties make him potentially vulnerable to the demands of banks, and to business people in the United States and abroad, said Professor Painter, the former chief White House ethics lawyer.

“The success of his empire depends on an ability to get credit, to get loans extended to his business entities,” he said. “And we simply don’t know a lot about his financial dealings, here or around the world.”

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/21/us/politics/donald-trump-debt.html?partner=rss&emc=rss

And there have been suggestions that Trump and/or his businesses are indebted to Russian oligarchs, all of which are Putin cronies (if you're wealthy and not a Putin crony, you get jailed or killed).

Blacks are SO POOR they have nothing to lose by voting for 0.1%er Class Warrior racist Trash. :lol

[boutons_deux]

It’s hard to imagine a much worse pitch Donald Trump could have made for the black vote

Consider:

Black Americans are not "living in poverty" as a general rule. A quarter of the black population is, according to data (http://kff.org/other/state-indicator/poverty-rate-by-raceethnicity/) from the Kaiser Family Foundation, about the same as the percentage of Hispanics. In Michigan, the figure is slightly higher. Most black Americans don't live in poverty, just as most white Americans don't.

Consider:

The unemployment rate in the black community is higher than that in the white community, as it has been since the Department of Labor started keeping track (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2014/09/06/black-unemployment-is-always-much-worse-than-white-unemployment-but-the-gap-depends-on-where-you-live/). Among young blacks, though, the figure is not 59 percent — unless (as PolitiFact noted (http://www.politifact.com/virginia/statements/2016/jun/20/donald-trump/trump-misleadingly-puts-black-youth-unemployment-r/)) you consider not the labor force but every young black American, including high school students. Many young black high school students are unemployed. This isn't a metric that the Labor Department typically uses, for obvious reasons, but calculating the rates for young whites gives you about 50 percent, too.

Consider:

Black voters are perfectly able to evaluate candidates on qualities other than their political parties. Black voters began supporting the Democratic Party heavily thanks to the Civil Rights Act (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2015/07/07/when-did-black-americans-start-voting-so-heavily-democratic/) of 1964. Since then, they have consistently voted for the party — a party that is one-fifth black (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/07/08/is-political-polarization-making-racial-tensions-worse/) and which since 1964 has elected the vast majority of the black members of Congress. (This argument (https://twitter.com/mikenizza/status/766751740565807105) from Al Sharpton in 2004 is worth a read.) Democrats win the support of black voters consistently because those voters like the work that they do and like the fights that they fight.

When President Obama won reelection in 2012, 93 percent of black Americans thought he was doing a good job. That's also the percentage of the vote he received, according to exit polls, beating Mitt Romney by 87 points.

And yet, somehow, Trump is doing worse.

In the battle between Trump and Clinton, he consistently lands in the low single digits of support from black Americans. In some polls, he has received 0 percent support (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/07/13/new-polls-in-pennsylvania-and-ohio-show-donald-trump-with-0-percent-of-the-black-vote/), a negligible amount. In our most recent survey, he got 2 percent support.

Why? Because nonwhite voters view Trump very unfavorably.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/08/20/its-hard-to-imagine-a-much-worse-pitch-donald-trump-could-have-made-for-the-black-vote/?wpisrc=nl_most-draw7&wpmm=1

I Spend Every Waking Moment Holding This Fragile Facade Of A Person Together, And I’ll Do The Same For America

http://i.onionstatic.com/onion/5408/5/1x1/300.jpg

America is in crisis, folks. The problems we face today have pushed us to a breaking point, and it’s going to take real leadership to keep this nation from falling apart completely. We’re in a lot of trouble, which means things will not be easy going forward. That’s why I want to be very direct with you about what my campaign is all about.

You see, I spend every moment of my life holding this delicate facade of a person together, and if I’m elected president, I promise to do the same thing for this country.

The America we know is slipping away, and it’s no wonder. Hardworking people have seen their jobs sent overseas, terrible acts of violence are being carried out on our streets every day, and our infrastructure is crumbling all around us.

Meanwhile, our government is so dysfunctional that it can’t get anything done. This nation may be on the verge of total collapse, but then, so am I—and look how well I’ve hidden my own issues and insecurities behind a paper-thin veneer of wealth and success.

Seriously, who else is more qualified to help the United States project a false air of strength and prosperity to the world? It’s what I’ve been doing for myself every single day of my life.

Just like this country, I’m hanging on by the tiniest of threads, and I’ve been doing it for 70 years. It’s only through sheer force of will that

I’m able, just barely, to keep my inner turmoil from spilling out, and instead maintain the appearance that I’m as confident as ever.
This is the expertise I have to offer to the American people.

Masking weakness, inadequacy, and failure is exactly what this country needs.

America can’t afford to appear feeble or uncertain right now. With the looming threats of radical Islamic terrorism and economic competition from the Chinese, the last thing we need is for the rest of the world to see us struggling to keep ourselves going, day in and day out. Well, there’s no one on earth more experienced than I am at taking the kind of fear, self-doubt, and paranoia that racks our nation and pushing it out of sight beneath a fragile outer layer of bravado and self-assurance that is no more than skin-deep.

Seriously, who else is more qualified to help the United States

project a false air of strength and prosperity to the world? It’s what I’ve been doing for myself every single day of my life.
I work tirelessly around the clock to somehow piece together the jumbled fragments of my psyche in such a way that I can function on a daily basis and give off the impression that I’m an unqualified success story.

Think of how I can apply that same skill to all the messes we have with racial tension, economic stagnation, gun violence, inadequate health care, Wall Street greed, and everything else that’s plaguing our country. Ask anyone who knows me and they’ll tell you,

“There’s a man who has spent his whole life teetering on the brink of a full-scale personal breakdown but amazingly appears as if he has things under control.”

Folks, that’s the track record I would bring to the Oval Office: making America look powerful and unfazed even as it falls to pieces just underneath the surface.

Because at the end of the day, the social, political, and economic issues threatening to destroy this country aren’t so different from the psychological issues that keep me seconds away from losing it completely. Only someone with decades of experience manufacturing a grandiose public persona to conceal those issues can suppress America’s fears of impotence and mediocrity. Believe me, folks, there’s no grave challenge facing this nation that I can’t paper over and pretend doesn’t exist.

And once we’ve established that semblance of composure, we can take all the anger and aggression churning within our country and project it on the outside world. That’s always worked well for me.

I chose to personally support Donald Trump for president early on and referred to him as America’s blue-collar billionaire at the Republican National Convention (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4ziZVeuj9w) because of his love for ordinary Americans and his kindness, generosity and bold leadership qualities. :lol

We need a leader with qualities that resemble those of Winston Churchill, and I believe that leader is Donald Trump. :lol

As Churchill did, Trump possesses the resolve to put his country first and to never give up in a world that is increasingly hostile to our values.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/jerry-falwell-jr-trump-is-the-churchillian-leader-we-need/2016/08/19/b1ff79e0-64b1-11e6-be4e-23fc4d4d12b4_story.html?hpid=hp_no-name_opinion-card-f%3Ahomepage%2Fstory&utm_term=.566e148f6c68

Trump tells Fox host black Americans have ‘no education, no anything’ — so they should vote for him

In an interview with Fox News host Jeanine Pirro, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said that

American blacks have “no health care, no education, no anything” and that their lives are “a total catastrophe.”

For black Americans, Trump said,

“It’s just, like, a total catastrophe, the unemployment rates, everything is bad — no health care, no education, no anything, no anything. And poverty is unbelievable.

Then, I said, ‘Hey, wait a minute, vote for me. What have you got to lose? You can’t do worse, you can’t do any worse than what these people have been doing and I will do better.'”

He actually came to speak near when I live in VA and did a big speech about helping Black people, but didn't spot even one in the crowd. He's going to lose VA big because of the minority vote; probably going to less than 10% of the Black and Hispanic vote combined. Saw he was polling at 1 % among Black people, not great in a state with a large black population on top of an Asian and Hispanic vote that is going to go overwhelmingly for Clinton.

White supremacist stabs interracial couple after seeing them kiss at bar, police say

By Cleve R. Wootson Jr. (http://www.washingtonpost.com/people/cleve-r-wootson-jr) August 19

Daniel Rowe was apparently enraged at the sight of a black man and a white woman kissing on the streets of Olympia, Wash., Tuesday night. But police say he hid his violent intent behind a stony face until he was close enough to strike.

The attack happened about 8:30 p.m. in the state’s capital city on Fourth Avenue, a classic downtown street busy with people going to a local movie theater or visiting bars and restaurants.
...

No one involved had life-threatening injuries, but police said Rowe’s behavior grew stranger as officers tried to wrestle him into the back of a patrol car.

“He tells them, ‘Yeah, I stabbed them. I’m a white supremacist,'” Lower said. “He begins talking about Donald Trump rallies and attacking people at the Black Lives Matter protest.”

Well done, Drudge. Welcome to Trump's America



Cleaver requests added security after a hack and racist phone calls

WASHINGTON U.S. Rep. Emanuel Cleaver of Kansas City, Missouri, says he was overwhelmed by “an avalanche of mean-spirited phone calls” after a hacker posted the congressman’s cellphone number, home address and other personal information online.

Dozens of callers attacked the former Kansas City mayor using profanity and “the N word,” the congressman said in an interview. Some accused him of being a “baby killer” or insulted his Methodist faith.

Cleaver also received obscene and racist emails, at least one of which appeared to come from a representative of the Ku Klux Klan, he said.

The intensity of the attacks prompted the former Kansas City mayor to change his phone numbers and request additional security around his home in Kansas City.

“When somebody puts your address on the internet, there are people who aren’t as mentally healthy as we hope they should be and they could do something,” Cleaver said.

...

Amid the nastiness, Cleaver said, his faith in humanity has been buoyed by the first caller from Raytown, who gave the congressman a heads-up that his information had been compromised.

“Not only did he call to warn me about what was going on, sent me another text to say, ‘Hang in there,’ and ‘I’m willing to talk to law enforcement’ . . . He was a very nice guy,” Cleaver said.

“Whenever I’m talking about how horrible the phone calls were, I have to remind myself that the first phone call was a classy gentleman who was very nice and helpful,” he said.

That tipster, as it turns out, was Sam Dawson, a 57-year-old Republican who first read about the hack that exposed the congressman’s information on the conservative Drudge Report website (http://www.drudge.com/).

Go check out his page. He not only took this picture and a few more of Trump but he was one of the amazing rescuers who literally went in flooded houses and carried ppl out.

Donald Trump visited Louisiana today. He brought with him a truck loaded with food, supplies, and toys that he personally passed out. He also donated money to a flood relief charity. He went and walked flooded houses in a community. He didn't ask for state police or military security, I I imagine he may have had his personal security with him but hey he pays them so not my business. He didn't ask for any road to be closed to bring him in or an escort to his destination, matter of fact he didn't inform the government of his visit at all. He didn't care if the government knew he was coming, he just came and brought needing people needed supplies. And the news covered it about 15 seconds and then used it as a hit piece to plug Obama's visit that will happen. It was just wrong on many levels. No matter of you agree with Trump political are not what he done today was honorable and good, and he did it without making a big deal of himself. I hope more people of his statue will do the same in the same way, without all the hype of announcing their visit with intent of a public photo op.

Mixed messages muddy the waters on Trump, deportations


Donald Trump’s campaign wavered Sunday on whether he would continue to call for the mass deportation of 11 million illegal immigrants from the United States, the latest in a series of sometimes-clumsy attempts to win over moderate GOP voters without alienating millions who have flocked to his hardline views.

After insisting for more than a year that all illegal immigrants “have to go,” Trump met with a newly created panel of Hispanic advisers on Saturday and asked for other ideas – making clear that his position is not finalized, according to two attendees.

On “Fox & Friends” this morning, Trump himself insisted, “No, I’m not flip flopping. We want to come up with a really fair, but firm answer. It has to be very firm. But we want something fair.”

“[H[ere’s why it’s so hard – if not impossible – for Trump to retreat on immigration:

He’s caught between his clear, unambiguous past statements and a base that might not [be] willing to see him moderate on the issue.”

Giuliani Fuels Clinton Health Rumors Again ... and Again


Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani on Monday continued to insist that Hillary Clinton's physical and mental health is failing but again offered no evidence beyond unsubstantiated or debunked theories (http://www.nbcnews.com/nightly-news/video/clinton-responds-to-deranged-conspiracy-theories-about-her-health-746921539976) circulating on the Internet.

Over the weekend, Giuliani, who is a close adviser to GOP nominee Donald Trump, urged people to look for videos on the Internet that support such theories. "Go online and put down 'Hillary Clinton illness,' take a look at the videos for yourself,"

Clinton's campaign later shot back on Twitter (https://twitter.com/brianefallon/status/767376263505907712), suggesting people "Google Rudy" to read about why he withdrew from the 2000 Senate race, which was directly linked to his health.

But Giuliani doubled down on Monday morning on Fox News, saying that Clinton is "tired" and recently "looked sick."

Trump himself has ventured into the topic, saying in the midst of a foreign policy speech last week that Clinton "lacks the mental and physical stamina to take on ISIS."

Trump campaign spokesperson Katrina Pierson took it upon herself to diagnose Clinton with "dysphasia (http://www.msnbc.com/mtp-daily/watch/trump-campaign-clinton-has-dysphasia-747294275911)," a brain impairment.

And the candidate has alluded to Clinton's failing health on the campaign trail, saying that she'll often "disappear" after giving a speech, presuming she "goes home and goes to sleep."

Grifter

Scam alert: Trash raised rent on himself after donors started paying bills for Trash Tower office

Donald Trump jacked up the rent at the New York City building he named after himself after donors started paying the tab.Trump raised the rent nearly 500 percent for his campaign’s headquarters at Trump Tower in July, when he was hauling in money from donors, compared with March, when he was self-funding his White House bid, reported the Huffington Post (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-campaign-rent_us_57bba424e4b03d51368a82b9).

The website analyzed filings with the Federal Election Commission and found rent payments had dramatically spiked at Trump Tower, which the candidate owns, although it’s not clear why.

Trump’s campaign staff shriveled from 197 paid employees and consultants in March to 172 in July.

But the candidate charged his presidential campaign $169,758 last month, after he locked up the GOP nomination, to rent office space at Trump Tower, compared with $35,458 in March — when Trump was paying those expenses himself.

Trump sees foreign ‘war zones’ as safer than US cities

Hoping to make the case that the status quo is untenable, the Republican presidential candidateinsisted (https://twitter.com/SopanDeb/status/767875613633937408) that current crime levels have reached a level “nobody’s seen.” Trump added, “You can go to war zones in countries that we’re fighting and it’s safer than living in some of our inner cities.”

But, Trump said moments later, if he’s elected, all of these concerns will simply go away. :lol

From the transcript (https://twitter.com/SopanDeb/status/767875613633937408) pulled together by CBS News’ Sopan Deb:

“I will straighten it out. I’ll bring jobs back. We’ll bring spirit back. We’ll get rid of the crime. You’ll be able to walk down the street without getting shot. Right now, you walk down the street, you get shot. Look at the statistics.”


This echoes the themes and fears the Republican nominee emphasized during his convention speech last month, but if one takes the candidate’s advice and “look at the statistics,” it becomes clear that Trump has no idea what he’s talking about.

The Huffington Post recently published a piece (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/crime-rates-donald-trump_us_57a8aa11e4b056bad2164226) that noted that Americans “are currently living in one of the safest periods in history.”


Even as the American population has continued to expand, there were fewer (https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2014/crime-in-the-u.s.-2014/tables/table-1) violent crimes committed in 2014 than there were in any year in the past several decades.

(While preliminary FBI statistics show a slight increase (https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2015/preliminary-semiannual-uniform-crime-report-januaryjune-2015) in the violent crime rates in the first six months of 2015 compared to the first six months of 2014, the crime rates in the 30 largest cities stayed flat in 2015, according to a Brennan Center analysis (https://www.brennancenter.org/analysis/crime-2015-final-analysis). Even if the final numbers for 2015 show a slight increase from the historically low crime rates of 2014, they will not remotely approach (https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2014/crime-in-the-u.s.-2014/tables/table-1) the rates seen a decade ago, which are around 30 percent higher than they are today.)



I’m reminded of an exchange, aired one month ago today, between CNN’s Jake Tapper and then-Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort. “Empirically, according to FBI statistics, crime rates have been going down for decades,” Tapper said (http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/team-trump-has-no-use-reliable-crime-data).

“How can Republicans make the argument that, somehow, it’s more dangerous today, when the facts don’t back that up?”

Manafort responded by questioning the reliability (http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/team-trump-has-no-use-reliable-crime-data) of the FBI. :lol

Donald Trash Makes Flood Relief Donation to Tony Perkins's Church?

Donald Trash has reportedly donated $100,000 to help Louisiana residents affected by disastrous floods — but he’s put it in the hands of an anti-LGBT church whose interim pastor (http://www.gsbcla.com/about/our-staff) is Tony Perkins, head of the infamously homophobic Family Research Council. (https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/individual/tony-perkins)

Perkins was directly affected by the floods as well, as his home in the area was severely damaged.

Some news outlets have seen a bit of irony in this, reporting that

Perkins has previously blamed LGBT advances for bringing on God’s wrath in the form of natural disasters.

Trash eager to return military equipment to police departments

http://www.msnbc.com/sites/msnbc/files/styles/ratio--3-2--1_5x-1245x830/public/wip_0056_0813_h_14493511.jpg?itok=K970FxzG

The violent crisis in Ferguson, Missouri, two years ago rattled the country in a variety of ways, but one of the lasting debates focused on the militarization of local law enforcement. Many Americans weren’t just shocked by the unrest; they were surprised to see police officers carrying weapons of war while confronting civilians.

Soon after, there was considerable interest on Capitol Hill about reforming the Pentagon’s “1033” program that makes military equipment available to police departments. Though most of the support for changes was spearheaded by Democrats – Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) and Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Ga.) were particularly invested – even some Republican lawmakers agreed it was time to take another look at the policy.

Congressional action never materialized, but as we discussed (http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/obama-follows-through-police-militarization) last year, the Obama administration followed through, banning the transfer of at least some types of military weapons to local police.

As Bloomberg Politics reported (http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/trackers/2016-08-22/trump-would-resume-sales-of-militarized-gear-to-police) yesterday, Donald Trump wants to undo what President Obama has done.


Police union members in Ohio today quizzed Donald Trump about protective gear, saying President Obama has banned practice of sales of surplus military equipment to police department.

Trump says he would resume such sales, saying “Yes, I would. I think it’s ridiculous” the practice was stopped.



Keep in mind, under the White House’s reforms, items like grenade launchers are no longer made available to local police departments.

NBC News’ reported (http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/u-s-cracking-down-militarization-local-police-n360381) last May that if local departments “want other, less-imposing military equipment, local law enforcement agencies will have to submit to stringent federal oversight and restrictions.”

Under a Trump administration, those restrictions would disappear, and police access to military equipment and weapons would be restored.

Bachmann boasts of role as Trump adviser on multiple issues

she has a role in the Republican presidential campaign as a policy adviser (http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/292126-michele-bachmann-advising-trump-on-foreign-policy) to Donald Trump.

Tea Party firebrand Michele Bachmann says she is advising Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on foreign policy.

The former Minnesota congresswoman attended a fundraiser in the state for Trump on Saturday, where she revealed to the press that she has his ear on foreign policy.


“[Trump] recognizes there is a threat around the world, not just here in Minnesota, of radical Islam,” Bachmann told (http://blogs.mprnews.org/capitol-view/2016/08/trump-visit-met-with-protests-politics/) Minnesota Public Radio.

If this sounds vaguely familiar, there’s a good reason: Bachmann was already identified as a Trump adviser in June, when the Republican nominee announced the creation (http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/bachmanns-new-gig-trump-adviser-evangelical-issues) of an “executive board convened to provide advisory support to Mr. Trump on those issues important to Evangelicals and other people of faith in America.”

Clinton, Trump said in a speech last week, "lacks the mental and physical stamina to take on ISIS and all the many adversaries we face."



Subtext: Weak girl.

(Coming from the guy who complained that debates were too long, aimed at the woman who held up through an 11-hour Benghazi hearing.)

Usually, though, it’s not subtext:

He has repeatedly called attention to Clinton's voice, saying listening to her gives him a headache. Last December, he mocked her wardrobe.

"She puts on her pantsuit in the morning," he told a Las Vegas audience.

At rallies and in speeches, the billionaire mogul has also used stereotypes about women to demean Clinton, who stands to become America's first female president if she wins in November.

A frequent point of criticism: Clinton doesn't look like a typical president.

"Now you tell me she looks presidential, folks," he said at a recent rally in New Hampshire.


Presidents are MEN, dammit. And here’s this woman, expecting to be listened to, even though she’s not a man. And she doesn’t dress in Donald-approved fashion. But this is the kicker:


"I look presidential," he insisted. :lol

Diehard Trump Voters Confirm Rest Of Nation Should Stop Wasting Time Trying To Reach Them

http://i.onionstatic.com/onion/5415/0/16x9/1200.jpg


WASHINGTON — Saying it should be very clear by now that absolutely nothing can change their position on the matter, steadfast supporters of Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump told the rest of the nation Wednesday that it really shouldn’t bother trying to persuade them not to vote for him.

The announcement, which was issued by millions of the candidate’s staunchest proponents across the country, emphasized that if widespread condemnations of Trump’s temperament, denouncements of his racially charged rhetoric, and technical critiques of his sweeping immigration plan were going to sway their opinion, it would have happened already.

“You can keep writing editorials, running ads, and arguing with us at the dinner table or online, but honestly, at this point, it won’t make a bit of difference,” said diehard Trump supporter Bryan Gallagher, 66, who remarked that it had been “a complete waste of time” when 50 top GOP foreign policy experts published an open letter earlier this month suggesting a Trump presidency would gravely endanger national security, noting that he and everyone else who currently backs Trump is “in it for the long haul.” “You really have no chance of winning us over. You could bring out every living four-star general and have them list all the ways Trump would harm our country’s well-being, and we still wouldn’t budge.”

“Do you really think you’re going to come up with some new criticism of his policies or his preparedness that will finally make us reconsider our votes?” Gallagher continued. “Please, you should all just save yourself the effort.”

The loyal Trump supporters said their message was directed at everyone who has actively sought to convince them that voting for the real estate mogul is against their own interests, a group that includes

current and former members of Congress,

members of past Republican administrations,

America’s NATO allies,

human rights advocates,

the pope, and

many veterans,

as well as their own families,

friends, and

coworkers.

The candidate’s backers added that, considering how they have already gone along with everything he has said and done in the 2016 election cycle, those trying to communicate Trump’s shortcomings to them should “quit wasting their breath.”

According to members of the pro-Trump constituency, the group has grown especially exasperated when asked by others to consider the possibility of supporting a different candidate based on his or her actual political views and track record. Supporters of the billionaire tycoon were quick to point out that they were given their choice of many different candidates over a period of numerous months, and they, of their own volition, actively opted to support Trump.

They added that the evidence that has been presented to them showing that, in fact,

other candidates’ stances on the issues more closely align with their own,

that many of the claims made over and over again by the New York businessman are demonstrably false, and that

his financial dealings reveal he doesn’t in any way practice what he preaches,

is of no consequence to them whatsoever and never will be.

“Look, I’ve backed Trump since the day he announced his candidacy, I put up a Trump sign in my yard back in January, and I regularly repeat the phrase that we need to ‘make America great again’—do you honestly believe a long, serious discussion of policy is going to make me any less excited about him?” said 58-year-old voter Vivian Hewitt of Derry, NH. “You can put together whatever platform you think will best address the concerns of people like me, but I’m telling you, it’s not going to work. It hasn’t worked for the past year, and it won’t work between now and November.”

“So give it a rest, okay?” she added.

Hewitt and her fellow Trump supporters went on to state that any further arguments made against their preferred candidate from here on out would simply cause them to dig their heels in even deeper.

“Here’s the thing: It’s not like I just stood by him each time he’s made one of those controversial statements that caused all the naysayers to condemn his campaign; I actually retweeted the very comments that sent everyone into a frenzy in the first place—so there’s really no use in even trying to get through to me on this stuff,” said 33-year-old Greg Lockwood, an Indianapolis resident who voted for the first time in this year’s primaries.

“To be honest, the only time I’ve really considered changing my mind about Trump was when he called for simply defunding Planned Parenthood instead of advocating a constitutional amendment banning abortion, because I didn’t think his views were extreme enough. See? That’s the kind of thinking that your arguments and thinkpieces are up against. They don’t stand a chance.”

Added Lockwood: “The bottom line is that, no matter what you do, on Election Day we’re walking into that booth and we’re voting for him. Simple as that.”

When asked to comment on their candidate’s broad appeal among white supremacists, the diehard group of voters quickly cut off reporters with a loud chorus of “Trump! Trump! Trump!”

Trump picks a fight with Clinton over … celebrities?

Soon after, reflecting on the underwhelming lineup in Cleveland, Trump delivered (http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/donald-trump-defends-rnc-i-914650) one of the year’s most unintentionally hilarious lines: “I wasn’t looking for star power [at the convention]; I was looking for policy.” No, seriously, that’s what he said.

A month later, the Republican evidently still has celebrities on his mind (http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/onpolitics/2016/08/24/trump-clinton-celebrity-support/89271960/).

Donald Trump apparently does not think Justin Timberlake is bringing sexy back.

Speaking at a rally in Tampa on Wednesday, Trump offered his take on Hillary Clinton’s supporters: “The only people enthusiastic about her campaign are Hollywood celebrities, in many cases celebrities that aren’t very hot anymore.”


Is this really the fight Trump wants to pick? The “hotness” of Clinton’s celebrity backers?

TPM’s report (http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/trump-clinton-celebrity-supporters-not-very-hot) on this noted, “Among the not ‘very hot’ celebrities supporting Clinton are Beyonce, Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Julianne Moore, Kerry Washington and George Clooney.”

USA Today, which noted that Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel hosted a fundraiser for Clinton yesterday, added (http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/onpolitics/2016/08/24/trump-clinton-celebrity-support/89271960/) that Clinton’s nominating convention also “featured appearances by Meryl Streep, Katy Perry, Paul Simon, Lena Dunham and Tony Goldwyn, among others.”

Campaign manager believes ‘undercover Trump voters’ exist

Donald Trump’s campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, who’s scheduled to be on “The Rachel Maddow Show” this evening, sat down with the U.K.’s Channel 4, which asked about the Republican candidate’s current deficit. Conway pointed to “hidden (http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/kellyanne-conway-polls-undercover-trump-voter)” Trump backers who’ve been excluded from surveys.


The dozens of recent polls that show Hillary Clinton ahead of Trump both nationally and in battleground states are, according to Conway, “cherry-picked polling numbers that are put out there by media outlets that are also bent on his destruction.”

“He performs consistently better in online polling where a human being is not talking to another human being about what he or she may do in the election,” she told Channel 4, in comments first flagged by MSNBC.

“It’s because it’s become socially desirable, if you’re a college educated person in the United States of America, to say that you’re against Donald Trump.” ( that's a great insult to "college educated person" :lol )

“The hidden Trump vote in this country is a very significant proposition,” she added.


Asked if Conway, a longtime GOP pollster, has been able to quantify this, she said she has, but wasn’t prepared to discuss it publicly. “It’s a project we’re doing internally,” Conway said. “I call it the ‘undercover Trump voter,’ but it’s real.”

“You’re supporting a bigot. That makes you part of the bigotry.” Charles Blow’s master class in cutting through Trump hackeryThe New York Times columnist's direct and unapologetic takedown of a black Trump surrogate is a model to emulate
In an exchange with Donald Trump’s minion Bruce Levell, Charles Blow did not allow Trump’s clear pattern, habit and strategy of racism and bigotry to be obfuscated or repackaged.

As detailed by a transcript from CNN (http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/1608/22/cnnt.01.html):

BLOW: And I know a bigot when I see a bigot. And you are supporting a bigot and that makes you part of the bigotry that’s Donald Trump.

LEVELL: I know someone who doesn’t tell the truth on national TV when I see it, sir.

BLOW: Right. And I know this. A bigot is a bigot. You’re supporting a bigot. That makes you part of the bigotry. And you are part of the problem that black America faces. That what black people don’t need is not somebody to solve our problems like we are some sort of algebraic equation. What black people need is dismantling . . .


The exchange continued:

LEVELL: . . . you can’t sit on national TV and call someone a racist, sir. ( "sir"? sub-text: "boy"! :lol )

BLOW: I called him a bigot and I called you a supporter of that bigotry, and therefore part of that bigotry. And you are part of what the problem with African-Americans.

LEMON: Let him get in. Let him get in. Go ahead, Bruce.

BLOW: Yes, I said that to you.


Charles Blow conducted a master class in how best to derail Donald Trump’s news-media con job.

Blow was direct, unapologetic, did not concede any territory of agreement or compromise and clearly communicated how Trump’s behavior and policies are racist and that by implication his supporters are as well.

Charles Blow also used the racial optics of his segment on CNN to great effect. Donald Trump, like other Republicans, deploys black conservatives as human mascots to deliver some of his most toxic, offensive and racist policies.

Most recently, former Pennsylvania Democratic Gov. Ed Rendell said in a Philadelphia radio interview that the so-called firewall between department and foundation officials was “ineffective” and the reported dealings create a “bad perception.” Comments like this, combined with a number of tough newspaper editorials, have left Clinton and her core team effectively on their own to combat a near-constant barrage of Trump condemnation.

Trump get 30 of black vote he will win

And if I get $30 million dollar's i'll be rich, we both just said things that will never happen.:lol

Romney and McCain combined to win 10% of the black vote in 2008 and 2012 while Trump is currently at 2%, it would be a miracle if he were to 5%.

So Chump has been caught lying again about meeting a "top Chicago cop" who said he could stop the violence in 1 week by "being tough". Once again, an easily falsifiable lie which didn't really help him in the first place. The man has to have a medical disorder to be making up stuff and not pausing to think about it for 30 seconds before opening his pie-hole.

Anyone with any sense knew they weren't gonna deport 14 million illegals.

REPUBLICANS TO PULL MONEY FROM TRUMP ADS AND SPEND IT ON ALCOHOL

http://www.newyorker.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Borowitz-Republicans-Spend-Money-On-Alcohol-1200.jpg

WASHINGTON — Calling it “the best use of our resources at this time,” the Republican National Committee has decided to pull money originally earmarked for Trump campaign ads and spend it on alcohol instead.

According to the R.N.C. chairman Reince Priebus, the decision to reallocate the funds from television advertising to alcoholic beverages came after careful review of the polling in crucial battleground states.

“With about seventy days to go until the election, we had to consider what was the optimal way for us to get through those seventy days,” he added. “We are confident that we have found that way.”

“The decision was unanimous,” he added.

In the crucial state of Pennsylvania, twenty thousand litres of vodka, gin, tequila, and an assortment of fine whiskeys are already being distributed to Republican Party offices.

“It’s questionable whether the ads we were thinking of buying for Trump would work,” Harland Dorrinson, the Pennsylvania G.O.P. chairman, said. “We received the first shipment of alcohol this afternoon, and I can tell you that it’s already working.”

According to the most recent filing with the Federal Election Commission, after the outlays for wine and spirits, the R.N.C. will still have a million dollars cash on hand, which will go to beer.

Rachel Maddow Confronts Trump Campaign Manager Over ‘Absurd’ Doctor’s Letter

Maddow confronted Conway about the physician’s letter that Trump produced (http://www.mediaite.com/online/meet-harold-bornstein-personal-physician-to-donald-trump/) several months ago, to derision from many quarters.

Maddow called the Dr. Harold Bornstein-penned letter “absurd,” and asked Conway if she could get something newer and better out of her candidate:

Maddow: Hillary Clinton released a normal doctor’s statement. What we have from Donald Trump, that letter really is absurd.

And we’ve contacted the doctor who wrote it to try to get some background.

Turns out he was using a medical credential on his name that he’s no longer entitled to use.

Like there’s a lot of really not upstanding things about what we know there.

And so for one, why is, a gastroenterologist is a digestive specialist.

Why is Donald Trump seeing a gastroenterologist for 35 years?

Conway: That, I don’t know.

Maddow: As the campaign manager, can I make a request?

Conway: Absolutely.

Maddow: Can we get a more substantial medical —

Conway: I will pass on the request. I assure you he has doctors and physicians.

Trash, a total fraud and con man.

Again, anybody with any sense knows that you can't have comprehensive immigration reform and a path to illegals staying in the country legally without controlling the border to prevent future illegal swarms.
