After Trump

[mr.turbo]

the nominee will keep doing what he's doing regardless, so there's nothing to be concerned about

keep thinking all the polls are biased and the media has no reason to be critical

hahaha I guess we'll see how it works out!

[mr.turbo]

keep doing it!

don't change anything!!!

It's gonna work!!

[SF1900]

LOL!   Because a terr'ist hell bent on blowing themselves up won't be capable of lying on a form?

Oh brother... 'extreme vetting' = complete clickbait reinforcement for desperate trump supporters.

Trump actually said "I know more about ISIS than the generals".   And his big plan for stopping them turns out to be another govt form that bad guys will just lie on when filling out?  Unreal anyone still falls for trump's garbage.

haha, does Trump really think he knows more about ISIS (and terrorism) than American Generals? Oh, man, this guy is clearly delusional.

Exactly this.

Also please show me how many terrorist attacks have happened in the US by people who hadn't been here for years?

Where did that Orlando shooter immigrate from again?

 

He was an illegal immigrant from New Hyde Park, Syria, IIRC.

Trump may lose Texas.   38 electoral votes that he had in the bag = 78 point swing.

hilary has 7 offices there and is working hard.  Trump has a PO box in a UPS store in Austin.

Trump Catastrophe Gets Worse For GOP As Poll Hints Texas May Be In Play For Clinton

By Jason Easley on Tue, Aug 16th, 2016 at 11:55 am



Donald Trump’s candidacy is quickly turning into a catastrophic GOP event, as a new poll of Texas shows Donald Trump with a relatively small 6 point lead over Hillary Clinton.

Keep in mind that it was only four years ago that Mitt Romney won Texas by 16 points while getting trounced nationally by President Obama.

The latest PPP poll of Texas found a closer than expected contest between Clinton and Trump:

PPP’s new Texas poll finds a relatively tight race, at least on the curve of recent Presidential election results in the state. Donald Trump leads with 44% to 38% for Hillary Clinton, 6% for Gary Johnson, 2% for Jill Stein, and less than half a percent (0) for Evan McMullin. In a head to head contest Trump leads Clinton 50-44 in the state, which Mitt Romney won by 16 points in 2012.................... .....

It would be impossible for any other Republican candidate to win the electoral vote on the first ballot because the deadline to certify ballots for the general election has already passed in some state, especially red states, and the deadline for most states is 60 days before the election, Sept 8.  Trump will remain on those ballots whether he drops out or not.  A new Republican nominee would not be on those ballots.

Now if no one got 270 electoral votes, then it would go to the current House, which is controlled by republicans.  They can select anyone they want.  But the Republican party is fractured, and the Tea Party and the establishment Republicans will not support each other's candidate.

I don't think so.  The Democratic already has an incredible Get Out The Vote organization already set up.  And they got plenty of money for it, as they're not going to need to spend much on advertising against Trump. Democrats are going to show up in record numbers.  The fear on the Republican side is that their base gives up and stays home, and the Democrats take both the house and senate.

FYI, regarding his quitting, see this article:

I hope you are right about the voter turnout.
