A random trump supporter sent me this youtube private message

I kid you not.

"Dims gag out choke lies from there brute froth holes."

That's what we're dealing with here, folks.

Why does Nate Silver's "adjusted leader" always seem

to increase Trump's poll numbers by one or two points and decrease Clinton's by the same?

WTH is that all about? Have all these polls been historically unfair to Republicans? I don't think so. In fact, in 2012 did not all the polls show a closer race than the actual final numbers? Did not Obama beat Romney by wider margin than was reflected in the polls?

Were not these polls, therefore, favorable to Republicans?

Is cold brew coffee any good?

It sounds good.

What does it mean that the emails were found "on" the laptop

What does "on" the laptop mean? Does it mean they were downloaded and saved in a file? Does it mean they had been read on the laptop through the account and were retrievable only via intensive forensic measures?

Seriously, what motivates people like Bannon and Trump?

It seems to be more than just power. They carry around serious anger, deep resentments. Nor is it rooted in ideology - it's something else. There's a genuine ugliness about them. You can see it in their faces. You can see it in the way they move. You can see it in their denial of reality.

So, what is their motivation. You can say "hate." But why? What is the root cause of it?

It's like a political movement fueled by mental illness.

I'd like to see some studies done on this phenomenon.

Any one have any thoughts, ideas?

Steve Schmidt - "Trump came into this debate politically dead."

"And once your dead, your dead. Hillary Clinton will be the 45th president of the United States."

What is the format for the third debate?

Podiums? Table?

G*d, I hate Matt Drudge

He has poisoned our discourse for years.

And he thinks he is so cute.

He has gone "all in" for Trump.

I want his head on the proverbial stick, proverbially.

I want him to have no influence on our politics.

He cozies up to our enemies, to Russia.

I just really don't like him.

It's National Taco Day...I've never had a taco - what are they like?

Any good? Am I missing out?

How's Bullock doing?

If I had to bet, I'd put my money on him.
