The bad news for Trump is that it's the people who can tell the difference whom he needed to impress if he wants to get over the electoral hump. I doubt he did.

"Sniffling?"

Per 538 CVoter is only a C+ rating, therefore it is not to be trusted completely, with a high margin for error and a significant skew towards a particular party (this case being republican).

No, rather kind of a general sympathy. Or like a general dislike for the other side. Even though Hillary certainly isn't on the left. It's even stretching it to call her a centrist.

If I would resort to the same kind of selective posting you do, I would have posted something on the Dresden bombings of last night. Or any other rightwing or xenophobic attack happening. In Germany, according to newest reports half of the combined attacks on politicians within the last year. Not lethal so far, but at some point it will happen. It's not because of a lack of deadly weapons being used. It's because they're still too stupid to do as much damage as they wished.

I have absolutely NO sympathy with regards to Trump. I don't even know what his policies are, let alone Clintons. I told you before, sometimes I just go along with people for a laugh. Sometimes it gets a bit serious in politics that it is good to laugh at two totally incompetent candidates who want to be president of a country that has a problem with guns. The only politician I would seriously have time for would be one who finally stands up to the NRA and the gun culture. Though, I am sure that, that particular candidate would win absolutely no votes, because most criminal gangs and citiizens would clearly vote for the one who isn't against banning the guns. Trump is a fucking idiot of the highest order. He is about as much clue about politics as François Hollande, and you know how popular he is in France? About as popular as having herpes simplex on your lip, and finding out that you are going on your first date.

Curious sense of humor, since I fail to see what's funny about that video. Or any video of people rioting for that matter.

Last night, watching the debates I realized something:

I stopped believing in trickle down economics around the same time I stopped believing in God. I wonder if there's a correlation between the two.

Debates are as useful as a four wheel drive fish. It's choreographed bullshittery. Regardless if it's about politics or any other topic. Everyone pounds their chest and claims a win, cheered on by their fanbase.

Sounds like a celestial alignment of enlightenment.  Too bad more people don't have those.

I can't believe how many sheep cling to both fallacies.
