Trump and HRD will be a complete disaster, at least the country has a third-party option. Although He's not much, at least he offers something else, I would of loved to see Warren go third party.

I don't like that term for my own reasons. I think "Stockholm Syndrome" is both more apt and less charged ... which us why I used that phrase, rather than "Uncle Toms".

I don't like that term either, for the record.

Exaggeration, much?
Dude is cutting off his own feet at butthurt about the lack of party support, even as such an action would kill his campaign. He's got the RNC considering an intervention and actively pondering how they should change nominees.
He's pissed in his own Cheerios, out of spite.
The thoughtlessness he displays on a regular basis renders his candidacy unrealistic. I hope he loses the election, and then catches a brick or two right in the fucking piehole.
Realistic enough for ya?

Warren endorsed Clinton.
http://www.cnn.com/2016/06/09/politics/e...y-clinton/
Quote:"I'm ready to get in this fight and work my heart out for Hillary Clinton to become the next president of the United States and to make sure that Donald Trump never gets any place close to the White House," Warren told MSNBC's Rachel Maddow.
Why do you want what you can't have?

Yes, you're stating the obvious. We all know he's a short-tempered moron who has basically killed his campaign through his recklessness. But lefties saying shit like he'd go to war or cause a nuclear armageddon? That's exaggerating, plain and simple.

No it is more that they are locked into a Bay of Pigs time warp. Castro bad. Their thinking goes no farther than that.

Emphasis mine.
Even though I won't vote for Trump, I used to also believe the possibility of him using nuclear bombs was an exaggeration, until I read this-
http://www.cnbc.com/2016/08/03/trump-ask...ports.html
Trump said a few months ago to foreign policy advisors "If we have [nuclear weapons], why can't we use them?"
Why, indeed.
And the argument that he would have professionals around him that would prevent his reckless use of nuclear bombs doesn't ring true either.
This is a man who has always surrounded himself with people who won't or can't tell him no. The first advisor that tells him no will be "Fired" and nepotistically replaced with a family member or close friend who won't or can't say no. So Donald Grump Jr. as Treasury Secretary and Melania as Chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Is it wrong that I'm enjoying seeing Grump piss all over himself and his campaign this week?
Republican billionaire Meg Whitman pledged a few days ago to vote for Mrs. Clinton instead of Trump and also to donate her Republican dollars to Mrs. Clinton's campaign and to work on rounding up other Republican donors for Mrs. Clinton as well.
Grump has already gifted a win to Mrs. Clinton on a silver platter, it's only a question of how wide the margin will be.

If Drumpf gets beat by 15-20 points it may be the only thing that will shake the GOP out of its race-baiting, southern-state, ignorance-is-bliss, strategy. An ordinary defeat and we will see a reprise of the 2016 race wherein 15+ idiots, all shrieking the same message to attract the ever shrinking portion of dumb-ass rednecks in the primaries.
These people do not learn easily.
