Why drum up sympathy for Hairpiece?

Shrillary's going to win this in a 15-point walkaway.

60% of what's left of the party hates him. However, I don't see Hillary pulling the same level of fanatical support, and am not sure Bernie supporters will vote for her... so it's really left to which party brings more of the subset that doesn't hate their candidate to the polls. In either case, lots of their own party (and the entire other party) hates the winner, and we're left with a President who wins a very small percentage of actual registered voters. Yay.

As for attempts on his life, I did wonder the same thing.

Actually the Trumpers figure that there is a good chance that the fiat money will crash and everything will be in the crapper before the end of this year. The Big Problem is getting enough fiscally conservative down ticket people elected.

And, when we're talking about down-ticket, let's start with the Veep list. I'd like to see him pick a conservative. Now that the race is over, I'll vote for him, but I'd really like to pull the lever for a conservative. Like Palin, or Ben Carson, or (be still my heart) Condi Rice. (I know, she ins't interested, but still. I'd vote for Condi in a heartbeat.)

Not going to speculate on this to preserve my innocence. However, I can still hope that an asteroid hits the building when the presidential debates happen. We could survive the crappy status quo of a Cruz regime, and we could survive the failed attempts of Sanders to revolutionize things, but neither Hillary nor Trump are good for the United States.

50/50 chance he picks Sanders just to fuck Hillary... That would be amazing!

Anybody selling Trump dolls yet?

And pins?
The use of the word "but" usually indicates that everything preceding it in a sentence is a lie.
E.g.:
"I believe in Freedom of Speech, but". . .
"I support the Second Amendment, but". . .

I know what those words mean individually, but together they make no sense.

I guessed there will be 3 attempts, because third time's the charm.
