    And here's what happened:::internal polling within 24 hours of the 2nd debate showed the defectors their was immediately weak. See, they want to keep their place at the trough, throw "us" a bone now & again to keep us votin' for 'em, then hop back into bed with [[[mine]]] enemies so [[[[[[[[[everyone's]]]]]]]]] place at the trough is secure. They do not want Trump at that trough. There is no place for him, and there never will be.

    They're scared less that without Trumps votes they'll lose their place(s) at the trough. The numbers are telling them that. CNN, MediaPERIOD will not display those numbers, but, make no mistake the numbers are plain. See, Trump has somewhere to go after the first Tuesday in November. Those thrown off the trough don't.

    ‘Unshackled’ Trump goes completely batsh*t — here are the 4 most insane moments from today’s rally

    1.) Trump said there was something fishy about the fact that Ryan didn’t call him to congratulate him on his debate performance on Sunday night.

    “There’s a whole deal going on and we’re going to figure this out,” Trump said of Ryan. “There’s a whole sinister deal going on.”

    2.) Trump attacks the Commission for Presidential Debates, which he said had treated him unfairly.

    “I have no respect for that group by the way, I’m done,” he said while railing against them.

    3.) Trump quintuples down on his assertion that Obama is the “founder” of ISIS.

    Trump has shifted back and forth about whether he’s really serious in his assertion that President Obama “founded” the Islamic State terrorist group. On Wednesday, he once again let the world know that he wasn’t really kidding.

    4.) Trump continued to whine about the quality of the microphone he had at the first presidential debate.

    “I couldn’t talk because my mic didn’t work,” said Trump, despite the fact that the TV audience could hear him just fine.

    Donald Trump's GOP civil war

    Panama City, Florida (CNN)Donald Trump is tearing the Grand Old Party apart.

    The tension that has simmered in the Republican Party for years -- shutting down the government and nearly bringing the nation to default -- escalated into an outright civil war Tuesday.

    The conflict not only threatens the party's ability to make any realistic attempt at reclaiming the White House next month, but also previews the conflicts and divides that could consume the GOP for years to come if Trump loses.

    On one side is Trump, who spent much of Tuesday lashing out on social media at his GOP foes, such as Speaker Paul Ryan and Sen. John McCain, and lamenting the lack of party unity. He's backed by conservative lawmakers including Iowa Rep. Steve King and the throngs of loyal supporters who attend his rallies, including the one here in Panama City, Florida, Tuesday, where he renewed his call for a government investigation into his opponent, Hillary Clinton.

    Some are even raising the potential of denying Ryan the speakership after the election.

    On the other side is Ryan, who is devoting the full resources of his stature to maintaining a congressional majority. That dominance of Capitol Hill is suddenly threatened -- and not just in the Senate, where there are many compe ive races, but also in the House, where the GOP majority was considered untouchable until recently.

    The infighting -- sparked by the release Friday of a 2005 video depicting Trump describing women in vulgar and sexually aggressive terms -- isn't likely to ease in the 27 days before Election Day.

    Trump made clear Tuesday that if he loses in November, he won't go down quietly -- or alone.

    And

    by blaming Republican leaders

    for their failure to wholeheartedly endorse his campaign, Trump also opens up the possibility of

    a face-saving excuse if he crashes to defeat in November.

    the estrangement between Trump and the party leaders is blowing open a gaping split between the party's grass roots

    Forging unity could be impossible if hordes of Trump voters blame party leaders for the defeat of a man who electrified the grass roots supporters in a way no other Republican has managed in decades.

    King, the Iowa Republican congressman, warned Tuesday that

    a purge of party elites might be necessary,

    saying "the establishment wing of the party could simply be amputated out in this effort that's going on right now."

    The meltdown in the GOP is the culmination of forces that have been building for years.

    Intense antipathy towards congressional leaders over their failure to more forcefully oppose President Barack Obama gave rise to the Tea Party and sent waves of anti-establishment lawmakers to Washington in successive elections.

    Trump's turn against his own party could also reverberate in down-ballot races. Republicans have long known that their hold on the Senate was tenuous -- whoever ran at the top of their ticket -- but Trump's slumping poll numbers now threaten to drag down vulnerable in bents too.

    http://www.cnn.com/2016/10/12/politi...s-us-election/

    "grass roots" ? ASTRO-TURF roots financed by BigMoney/VRWC

    "failure to more forcefully oppose President Barack Obama" ??? Repugs have OBSTRUCTED EVERYTHING from Obama/Dems

    is "more forcefully" implying a "2nd Amendment solution" ?

    We can see it all now:

    Trash gets destroyed by a aging, homely, overweight WOMAN (as opposed to beauty contestant, trophy wife, arm candy) so Trash, always a winner in his own sick mind, blames Repug establishment for stealing his victory.

    Sicko Trash is NEVER at fault.

    You realize that this is the main problem for the GOP, right? A majority of Americans oppose Trump, but a majority of GOP supporters back Trump. So the party is caught between a rock and a hard place. Ryan did the only thing he could do: asked congressmen to do what would help them more in their individual district. Rs who need moderates to win are spurning Trump, and those who need the base more are supporting him.

    That should be just about enough to retain the House and continue the politics of obstruction. They've already written off the Presidency and are likely to lose the Senate. The GOP is reaping a bitter harvest after decades of using propaganda and bigotry to rile up their uninformed base.

    the Repug base, electing the House teabaggin Freedom Caucus and similar in the Senate, has been solidified, strengthened and protected as "safe" by state laws and regs written by ALEC and SPN, State Policy Network, and other VRWC stink tanks, and by the Kock Bros political machine.

    All those VRWC orgs are funded by BigCorp, not by grass roots losers.

    Those "model" laws, often passed verbatim, show how to gerrymander (redmap), how to shutdown poor women's health clinics, how to suppress the vote, how to defund public schools (killing teacher unions) while funding charter schools, etc, etc.

    iow, the Trash side of the Repug civil war is totally the creation of the BigCorp's $Bs.

    And that "army" not going away after Trash is destroyed electorally.

    Likely to lose the senate seems like a stretch right now, as fivethirtyeight has it as roughly a coin flip with a slight edge to the democrats based on their polls+forecast, which seemed to have an excellent track record in the last two elections. Although I guess the betting markets give the Democrats better odds: 63.5% for the senate and 24% for the house according to John Stossel's page.

    I wonder how much importance the fivethirtyeight model gives to the "coattail" effect - the correlation between the Presidential vote and the Senate vote. This correlation has increased in recent elections. The Princeton model, for example, takes this into account and gives the Dems a 77% chance of winning the Senate. Trump might encourage more ticket-splitting but the actual correlation usually ends up stronger than the polling indicates.

    They've nobody to blame but themselves. They turned their backs on Trump first. Thought he would go quietly into the nite. Uh, uh.

    I've absolutely no sympathy for them.

    - "Burn 'em, Ike, burn 'em all."
    Because they knew he was the one person who Hillary could definitely beat in a general election. The assholes who supported him and voted for him are the ones to blame for Hillary becoming our future president. This dude was as big as a liar and a waffler as Hillary and the only person more disliked than her. The party knew it which is they did all they could to undermine him.

    Not true. Her unfavorables were only topped by Trump. The amount of baggage her and her husband had were negated by his baggage. But the deplorables didn't care. They felt he was their messiah and didn't realize he was their version of the Anti-Christ. And they're all gonna burn with him on election night.

    Don't be in denial. You're better than that. You know deep down all the other Repubs running had way less baggage than her and would have knocked her out on election night. Don't fall for your false god. Outside of Slick Willy, he was the biggest dirtbag in the 90s. No amount of empty promises on his part can change who he really is.
