But his ex-wife brought an abuse lawsuit against him which he settled... that means he's GUILTY!
And also! An underage girl brought accusations of rape against him! And 7 Women all came out to accuse Trump of sexual harassment! I mean the number of accusations PROVE HE IS GUILTY. I mean he's obviously a rapist and a sexual deviant, I mean, people never lie, and the DNC certainly wouldn't be offering money to people to claim they've been assaulted by Trump, I mean that would just be like being dishonest! I mean it's not like they are so desperate for dirt to throw at Trump they are literally asking random people to come forward with no proof, I mean thats just tinfoil consipiracy stuff.

How about the fact that he has no clear plan on anything, how he constantly contradicted himself, his refusal to even admit defeat should it happen (even if he becomes president, which is increasingly unlikely, he will not win all battles), his refusal to take fault (Arnold Schwarzenegger was also confronted with similar allegations, but he apologized and went on to win the California Governor seat), he's clueless such as when he blamed NAFTA for China's fault, etc
I think last night's debates would have been a good example.

Rasmussen only uses land lines and only does IVR polling. In terms of reliable predictors of the election I rate them between Breitbart and Drudge polls.

This election cycle has pretty much proven that CNN is the left-wing's version of Breitbart.
They're not even trying to pretend to be neutral anymore.

Man, I feel old now. I remember the days when CNN was the sane, middle-ground network, with Fox on one extreme, and MSNBC on the other.

Citing Rasmussen polls is the fifth stage of grief.

I wouldn't be so quick to criticize.
There would be Trump phenomenon without the media propping up his campaign throughout the primary. They created him, they adored him, they enabled him. Eventually, they turned on him, because he couldn't stop doing stupid shit like turning his birther press conference into an hourlong infomercial for Trump Hotels. But the media is Donald Trump's best friend.

Lmao if you think that the media didn't prop up Trump in the first place because they knew they could turn the media machine on him and destroy him afterwards. They did the same thing to McCain and Romney it was wall to wall positive coverage and blowjobs during the primaries and the second they got the nomination they turned the guns on them and started to slander them as hard as they could
Trump was ratings gold and they knew they had so much material to tank him that's why they gave him all of that not because they ever bought into what he's selling

On it's own, you might have a point. However, the person he's running against has been fucking things up for 30 years. I'm old enough to remember how she fucked relations with China in the 90's as FLOTUS (amongst other things, she seemed like the King Midas of fecal matter during those days), and didn't have any "real" power. Incidentally, that's the administration who's wives thought it was in our own best interests to be warned that Rap lyrics could be offensive. She has changed her mind depending on what's polling best, the only difference between her and Trump in that regard is that we get to see it in real time with him. Makes me feel like I'm almost part of the process.
As for China and NAFTA, I simply don't care.
So it comes down to whether or not I personally prefer Grandmaster Pussy Snatcher to Ms. Black People are Super Predators, and should be regulated in a manner similar to pit bulls. I see no reason against voting for either of them outside of nuances that personally resonate with me. On the one hand. I think all wars are inherently justified, and the US has an obligation to commit all other cultures/civilizations to the eternal sands of time, and I think Hillary can, and will try to deliver on that. On the other hand, I believe in consequences, and Trump definitely seems like the necessary evil here to end the borrowed time we've all been living on.

Maybe Clinton will be a one term president? She doesn't have the novelty of the first x president Obama had. Plus people are actually looking at her record. But maybe lizard queen will defy trends?

Internal emails suggest that Trump was chosen precisely as one of the possible "joke candidates" they think he didn't stand a chance, he was the virtual strawman for Hillary to knock over and win the election with.
But they got overzealous, overconfident, they didn't realize their own rabid frothing attacks and jokes about him during the primary would expose themselves as so inherently biased to the average voter. It made people suspicious of their motives, and with Bernie apparently being thrown under the bus despite internal documents suggesting he would have been the better candidate to run against Trump, they ignored it, because as the emails from the DNC server showed, she wanted the Presidency and still despised Obama from stealing the nomination from her.
The collusion is almost to a point where it's literally getting to the point of Soviet propaganda.

It's more than that they were literally panicked and thought Trump was their only way for a guaranteed victory
If Rubio had won the nomination he'd be coasting 10 points over her even with the media going at him

And I wouldn't have the taste of bile in my mouth. I wouldn't have been excited about it, but I could stomach a Rubio presidency

Man, the rationalizations are really starting to get hilarious now on the retreat maneuver. We'll see if he can lie his way back into another Senate seat run for four years out of six first before you start throwing around the 55%-45% win predictions there.

Yes. U.S. Term Limits, Inc. v. Thornton, 514 U.S. 779 (1995). The qualifications for election to the federal legislature are in the Constitution, and cannot be changed absent amendment to the Constitution. They do not include term limits.
Don't call me a prophet but I was saying exactly this well before the nomination and was called a conspiratard.
I also called that they'd never be stupid enough to nominate him, but I guess I was wrong there.

My dad suggested as well that Marco was the most "Electable."
Marco. Marco. Marco. I just can't stop saying that name over and over. President Marco. President Marco. President Marco. (can't believe I voted for that Marco in 2010)
Ever since Obama was crowned winner, however, "Electability" doesn't matter anymore.
Marco.
Marco.
Marco!
