    Can Trash lose the general 30% - 70%?

    I don't think the Repugs will pull dirty convention tricks to nominate some non-Trash, because they wouldn't have ANY campaign machinery in place.

    The VRWC billionaires, BigCorp, etc will yield the WH, while spending heavily on Congressional and state elections, where they can do much more damage to America.

    ‘Deadbeat Donald’ caught refusing to pay his bills

    The front page of USA Today’s print edition features an all-caps, above-the-fold headline that Republicans probably didn’t want to see: “Trump’s Trail Of Unpaid Bills.” And while the headline is rough, the article hits like a sledgehammer.

    During the Atlantic City casino boom in the 1980s, Philadelphia cabinet-builder Edward Friel Jr. landed a $400,000 contract to build the bases for slot machines, registration desks, bars and other cabinets at Harrah’s at Trump Plaza.


    The family cabinetry business, founded in the 1940s by Edward’s father, finished its work in 1984 and submitted its final bill to the general contractor for the Trump Organization, the resort’s builder.

    Edward’s son, Paul, who was the firm’s accountant, still remembers the amount of that bill more than 30 years later: $83,600. The reason: the money never came. “That began the demise of the Edward J. Friel Company… which has been around since my grandfather,” he said.


    USA Today recently broke some news, noting that Trump and his business enterprises have been involved in “at least 3,500 legal actions in federal and state courts during the past three decades.” But this new report goes one step further, noting

    much of the litigation involves ordinary Americans – mechanics, plumbers, painters, waiters, dishwashers, etc. – who sent Trump bills for completed work, and the New York Republican simply refused to pay.

    Repugs should love Trash, as their man to default on the US Treasury bonds, on the national debt.

    Again with the straw man, Splits? I said special occasions, not victory speeches - winning the final set of primaries is a special occasion as is his AIPAC, foreign policy and energy speeches. You're starting to sound like Botox Deuce, tbh
    he just read another ty speech he didn't write off a teleprompter at that "special occasion" known as the "Faith and Freedom" conference. That's his only two speeches in the last four days.

    That pussy has been NEUTERED by the establishment and I nailed your ass to the tree of woe again Just can't make this up

    The GOP Is Being Run By A Six Year Old As Trump Announces He’s Not Going To Have Policies

    Donald Trump has announced that he thinks policies are a stupid waste, so he is not going to have any policies in his presidential campaign.

    According to Time:

    For Trump, the idea of hiring an aide whom he might never meet is a recipe for waste.

    “Hillary’s campaign is crazy,” he continued.

    “I look at her staffing, and I mean she’s got the United States government there.”

    He even mocks her focus on putting out so many policy proposals, a longtime tradition for major party nominees.

    “She’s got people that sit in cubicles writing policy all day. Nothing’s ever going to happen. It’s just a waste of paper.”

    (The Clinton campaign counts that paper as a point of pride: 73,645 words of policy and counting.)

    According to Trump, it is crazy for a person who is running for president to tell the voters what they are going to do by having policies and plans to deal with problems.

    If someone cares what Elizabeth Warren says they are already voting for Hillary anyway.

    She is irrelevant in that she is just one more endorsement. Big deal.

    No way Hillary chooses her as VP and she will be too old in 20 or 24 to run for President.
    I care what Warren says and I am still not voting for Hillary.

    This where your narcissism works against you. While what you say may be or may not true with the old s out there such as yourself, Warren like Bernie is hugely popular amongst young voters. This is well do ented and you're so pigheaded you cannot see it.

    You don't matter in the larger scale. Very few people do. Warren does though.

    When you attack someone who is attacking someone else that is defending someone. You have heard to cliche 'the best defense is a good offense' right, pedobear?

    I guess this is the mental gymnastics you have to go through to not think attacking Hastert's victims/accusers is defending Hastert. You probably think rape shield laws are a bad idea too.

    RNC keeps its presidential candidate under an online bushel

    how weird it is that the RNC’s homepage, a month after the party named Donald Trump the presumptive Republican nominee, included literally zero references to Trump’s candidacy. This week, TPM’s Josh Marshall noted the same thing.

    There does not seem to be any mention of Donald Trump on the official Republican Party website, gop.com. Hillary is there. Bernie is there. George H.W.Bush is there. Reagan is there. Reagan/Bush. Lincoln is there. No Trump anywhere. Not on the blog, signups. Not anywhere that I could find.

    I checked again this morning, assuming this oversight would be quickly fixed, if only to avoid embarrassment, but there’s still nothing. I found this “Take Back The White House” page in which the RNC touts “our presidential candidates” – as if there were still several Republican contenders – but literally no references to Donald Trump specifically.


    The RNC’s homepage has two pictures of Hillary Clinton, but zero of Trump. Click on the “View All Articles” link for the latest RNC blog posts and press releases, and you’ll find plenty of content, but of the top 20 items, 19 attacked Hillary Clinton, while one attacked President Obama.

    Here, too, there wasn’t a single Trump mention.

    McConnell agrees Trump’s ignorance is a problem

    Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Thursday that Donald Trump needs to pick an experienced running mate because “he doesn’t know a lot about the issues” and strongly urged him to change course on his rhetoric. […]

    “He needs someone highly experienced and very knowledgeable because it’s pretty obvious he doesn’t know a lot about the issues,” McConnell said. “You see that in the debates in which he’s participated.”

    McConnell went on to say that he’s urged Trump to demonstrate “the seriousness of purpose that is required to be president of the United States.” Suggesting the presidential hopeful has not yet met this threshold, the senator added, “We’ll see whether that’s something he’s capable of doing.”

    Could there be a more direct validation of the post-policy thesis than this? McConnell freely admits that his party’s presidential candidate is ignorant on matters of public policy and hasn’t demonstrated the necessary seriousness of purpose – but the senator nevertheless wants this man in the Oval Office, making life-and-death decisions, and leading the free world.

    I half-expect McConnell to start telling reporters, “Qualified, schmalifed. As long as he has an ‘R’ after his name, I don’t care.”

    http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-s...d=sm_fb_maddow

    As if McConnell and the Repugs gave the tiniest about "governing"

    The Trump campaign has real financial problems as the general election gets underway, and what limited resources he has, the candidate wants to invest in things like New York polling – as if this is a state that’s within reach.

    I keep hearing Trump's campaign is having cashflow issues. Wasn't this guy saying he's worth billions and is self-funding his campaign so he's not beholden to any campaign donors who want something for their money? I know Trump lies through his teeth and exaggerates everything but how much liquidity does he truly have?

    Hillary is aiming for $2 billion. Nobody expects Trump to self-fund the general election campaign and compete with that. He won the primaries on his own money, but the general election should be the responsibility of the whole party. Sounds like the big donors at Romney's fundraiser are griping - I can see why - Trump intends to shake things up in Washington if elected and they don't want that. IMO, it's terrible the way Romney is going on about Trump - if you don't like him, keep quiet, don't sabotage any chance he and the republican party might have of competing. Sour grapes, if you ask me - wish he had been this vocal and fighting against Obama.

    Yeah. I understand it. Your assumption was that the majority of the uninformed DVR all their shows. I'd be surprised if that's the case.

    You said that you set expectations for others based on yourself and asked what other way there was. It's actually a quite common worldview particularly amongst men. Remember when I pointed out how I did not think that way? Now take all of what you just tried to put on me and think about it some more, pedobear.

    Further, if you are going to make that argument it helps to actually state an alternate explanation for your insisting that Hastert's victims consented.

    One Moment At Trump’s Florida Rally Showed Republican Racism At It’s Misplaced Worst

    The crowd chanted, "build that wall," Donald Trump went over and hugged an American flag, and the xenophobic and racist impulses of the Republican Party were on full display.

    Republicans have subs uted xenophobia for patriotism, and their racist warping of everything that this country is supposed to stand for was captured in a single moment while Donald Trump spoke in Florida.

    Trump and his supporters represent a knee-jerk reaction to the changing of America.

    They represent a reaction against change and diversification, and the desperate pleas for a wall were symptomatic of their desire to block progress in our country.

    The xenophobic bigotry and racism that is the beating heart of the Republican Party have never been clearly captured than when Trump hugged the American flag in Tampa.
