I cant cope

Too bad Pence doesn't have the balls to tell her number to everybody like Trump did with Lindsey Graham.

Trump was just rushed off the stage at the Nevada rally. This kind of thing would happen if USSS thinks there's a threat.

Quite frankly, I can't wait until this dumpster fire of an election is over.

I bet the cocksucker's bail will be paid for by the Clinton campaign, and be interviewed on CNN tomorrow with some fabricated story about how he only wanted to grab the microphone and call him a racist.

Kaine's motorcade suffered a collision around the same time - bus kept moving. Probably unrelated though.

Listen to this grown man cry.

You know he's gonna say the same thing about the next republican candidate.

This has been an amazing election year.

You know you're fucked when even Rational Wiki hates you despite being such a huge liberal.

Rational wiki hates about everything except fedoras, the idea of sex, and anime titties.

She certainly adheres to the economic right, considering she's owned by Soros, who's a supercapitalist and makes the Koch Brothers look like French or Japanese protectionists. So with her, we will continue to lose our economic sovereignty with large American companies splitting apart under the guise of competition, while China buys it all, and investors like Soros reap the benefits. She is however on the social left, with her 550% increase in rapefugees under B.S. "nation of immigrants" canard. If loosening immigration laws is by not enforcing any in the first place, fuck me dead.

Maybe Hillary has invested heavily in companies that produce rape kits and she knows a market boom when she sees one.

Soros is weird (and evil) in that he plays the capitalist game but has a boner for socialist policies and a disdain for anything right wing, and seems to hate nationalism and peace through strength the most.

Listen to this grown man cry.

I want President Trump for life though.

"orange Hitler"?

Oh, there's plenty of much better nicknames for Trump.

The current situation:

• The odds over who will control the Senate are effectively up to a coin toss now, 50-50.
• Trump is gaining ground on Clinton for the presidency
• For this election cycle, the House is simply a lost cause for the Democrats. They can do nothing with it for the moment given that the break they were hoping for to win some pushback there has not come and undoubtedly won't come this time around.

Should Trump win the presidency and the Republicans take the majority in the Senate, they will have the executive and legislative branches tied up handily. From there, the judicial branch is still functioning at reduced capacity with SCOTUS currently running on 8 seats and other seats looking at vacation due to potential deaths or retirements in the near future. Potentially, the Republicans could gain strong footholds in every branch of government .

If Hillary manages to lose (which is possible) and the Democrats lose the Senate (which is very possible), the Democrats will be fresh out of clout for some time.

Given that the presidential candidate is traditionally the leader of the pack, I'd say Hillary's performance as the vanguard for the Democrats has been less than stellar. But hey...

Only she could do this well.

New York Times has a lot of anti-Trump articles but oh gosh, they're peddling fear like nothing else. I don't seem to remember fear like this coming out of the MSM when Romney was on the ticket.

You have a lot of media outlets and institutions dropping the non-partisan shroud this election and outright endorsing Clinton or in the case of outlets like CNN, almost refusing to run any negative stories on her if they can while hammering Trump 24/7. It's a bit annoying because I used to like CNN.

Clinton is in trouble and it's becoming rather obvious. Those close to her and she herself are probably ass over tea kettle over the current trends.

The email situation--though it did not reach the tin cup rattling stage that many thought it would in the summer--has still come to bite Clinton in the ass as of late because she refused to fess up and take responsibility for her actions. Had she done so, she'd have probably been able to manage the damage far better and see less of the downturn in support that she has.

 

[Chiang Kai-shek]

All Trump has to do to win is both not say or do something stupid and win NH. I'm worried more about the former than the latter.

Clinton is in trouble and it's becoming rather obvious. Those close to her and she herself is probably going ass over tea kettle based on the current trends.

Had she done so, she'd have probably been able to manage the damage far better and see less of the downturn in support that she has.

I doubt she'll ever admit that her whole email server bullshit was just a way for her to nullify any future FOIA requests.

 

[IwegalBadnik]

I doubt she'll ever admit that her whole email server bullshit was just a way for her to nullify any future FOIA requests.

That's true--but she never had to make an admission either. What she could have done to assuage many people was to cook up some other nonchalant, thinly veiled bullshit explanation to foam the runway for the fallout.

Surely there'd still be people unsatisfied--but that's inevitable. Some people wouldn't buy the bullshit and rightfully so...but some would. Her losses would have almost certainly been lessened if she had not continuously tried to hide away from and play down the email scandal.

Clinton played right into Trump's hand by doing what she did with regard to the emails.

This thought occurred to me earlier today and cracked me up, so please enjoy this Election Day fanfiction I wrote about it.

Hillary Rodham Clinton stepped onto the stage, tears blinding her eyes while the roar of the crowd deafened her. She had done it. She had finally, finally done it. Decades of waiting, of countless favors, of dirtying her hands and selling out her morals had finally paid off. She was the first female president, and her name would live on in the annals of history.

Hillary stepped up to the mike to deliver her acceptance speech. "My fellow Americans, I am humbled and honored to stand before you today as the FIRST. WOMAN. PRESIDENT," Hillary began, waiting for the applause to die down before she continued. "The road has been long, but finally we-"

Suddenly, the lights cut off, causing the crowd to cry out in surprise. A split second later, the stage lights came back on, only now they were a disturbing, eerie red. A swirling column of smoke erupted onstage, the sulfuric smell it gave off causing many in the audience to choke. Finally, the smoke cleared, revealing a tall, thin figure wrapped in a cloak as black as night. It was wearing a featureless, horned mask to conceal its visage, although a bright red light shone through each of the eye holes.

"N-no... it can't be... what the hell are you doing here?!" Hillary screamed in total horror.

"But Mrs. Clinton... oh, I'm sorry, Madame President, have you really forgotten our agreement?" The masked, cloaked figure's voice was absolutely terrifying, striking fear into the hearts of every man, woman, and child present. The crowd began to flee towards the exits in a panic. Casually, the terrible intruder waved a hand, causing all of the doors to slam shut and lock.

"Oh, I remember alright," Hillary began. Initially she had thought of denying her connection to the fiend, but instinctively knew that she would only provoke it. She knew all too well what it was capable of.

"But I also seem to remember that you promised me the presidency, Beelzebub," she said, practically spitting the name. "So what are you doing here?"

"That's exactly right, Madame President. I promised you the presidency as part of our agreement," the figure known as Beelzebub said with a certain levity. "But I don't recall ever saying how long you would remain in that position. And now, I'm here to collect the debt you owe me."

"No... no, no, no, NO!!!!" Hillary was in an utter and complete panic right now. Casting one final look at the audience that was still frantically pounding on the exit doors, she took off across the stage and towards the emergency exit.

"What are you so upset about, Hillary? You got what you wanted. From now until the end of time, you'll be remembered as America's first female president. I'm sure that knowledge will comfort you in the eternity you spend in my domain."

With that, Beelzebub disappeared into thin air, only to reappear in front of Hillary a split second later. Grabbing her, he spun her around in some kind of macabre waltz as she screamed. Faster and faster they spun until they became a blur, smoke rising from the floor to embrace them. The audience stopped its desperate escape attempts, staring in complete shock and horror at the scene before them. The stench of sulfur grew stronger as the column of smoke reached higher, Hillary's screams reaching a fever pitch.

And then, as suddenly as it started, it stopped. The eerie red lights cut off, drowning the venue in darkness before the bright, normal lights blinked back on. Yet Hillary and Beelzebub were nowhere to be seen; only the rapidly dissipating scent of sulfur gave any indication that what happened had been real. Utterly panicked, the crowd shoved against the doors once more, falling right through them as they were unlocked. They ran away from the venue, screaming and scattering in all directions.

Beelzebub was right. Hillary was remembered as the first female president for many years to follow. But she was also remembered for teaching the world a very valuable lesson:

The Devil always, always collects his debts.

Most people would say that story has a happy ending.

Except maybe for the fact that it sets up a sequel with Kaine.

One of the most amusing things about this election has been dipshit college kids and media leftists pushing the idea that Trump will literally become the next Hitler and start chucking brown people into camps if he's elected. Does anyone really believe Trump is intelligent or charismatic enough to be the next Hitler?
