A successful casino executive who has experience dealing with Trump adds fuel to the fire that will consume the Orange Man's bid for the presidency.
I know Trump. Don't vote for him: Ex-Harrah's executive
http://www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...tive/93353464/
(Ouch!)I wrote of his bluster, threats, intemperance and falsehoods in 1985. Nothing has changed.
I got to know Donald Trump reasonably well in the 1980s — and I will not be voting for him.
Thirty-four years ago, I was a senior vice president for Harrah’s and was given the responsibility to be Harrah’s representative in a joint venture that created the Harrah’s at Trump Plaza hotel-casino property in Atlantic City. It was a major project at the time, one of the largest ever undertaken by either of our organizations. We had equal ownership, with Trump as the land developer and Harrah’s as the operator. So, over a period of four years I met with Donald frequently, often multiple times a month. It was not a happy marriage, and it ended badly. Before the divorce, I had ample opportunity to form an opinion of him — an opinion that leaves me appalled by the very thought he could become our president. Knowing that how Nevadans vote could determine the outcome in this critical election, I have chosen to relate my experiences and views of Donald Trump.
Harrah’s at Trump Plaza opened in 1984, and within a year we were in litigation with Trump. In 1985 I filed an affidavit with the court over Trump’s claims of mismanagement: Referring to Trump I said, “His written response to my letter of May 10 is characteristic of the bluster, threats, intemperance and unsupported and unsupportable falsehoods that have permeated the correspondence we have received from him and his key management employees almost since the beginning of our partnership.”
My opinion of Donald Trump from the 1980s has not changed. The negative publicity about Trump during this campaign — his conduct toward women, his business failures and his explosive temperament — matches my dealings with him.
In 1986 we terminated the partnership by selling our half of Harrah’s at Trump Plaza back to Trump. He promptly changed the name to Trump Plaza and took over operations. Trump Plaza filed for bankruptcy in 1992. It closed in 2014 after additional bankruptcies. In contrast, Harrah’s flourished during this same period, and I retired as Chairman in 2005. If an investor had purchased $10,000 of Harrah’s/Holiday Inn stock in 1982 and held onto it until 2005, it was worth over $1 million. As the New York Times said in an article in June, there is “little doubt that Mr. Trump’s casino business was a protracted failure.” His employees, shareholders and bondholders suffered.
Above all else, however, I am convinced he simply does not have the temperament to be president, or more importantly, commander in chief: His hair trigger temper, bluster, racial rhetoric and divisive domestic and international views will endanger our democracy and risk permanent damage to our society.
I urge those of you who are considering voting for Trump just because you want change or because you don’t like Hillary Clinton to pause and reconsider: A vote for Trump could give us a President Trump — that is the scariest prospect of all.

“I believe the simplest explanation is, there is no God. No one created the universe and no one directs our fate. This leads me to a profound realization that there probably is no heaven and no afterlife either. We have this one life to appreciate the grand design of the universe and for that, I am extremely grateful.”

How the Harry Reid Machine May Have Killed Trump’s Chances
http://www.politico.com/magazine/sto...latinos-214426
By bringing Hispanics out in droves in early voting, the Senate minority leader is trying to turn Nevada into a bellwether for a Clinton win.
Fucking Harry Reid.By the time Donald Trump’s chief Nevada poll watcher arrived at the supermarket to complain about the late voting, apparently clued in by the massive amount of social media traffic about the historic, organic turnout, it was too late. Just under 2,000 voters had cast ballots at the market, adding to a record Democratic firewall (73,000 ballot lead in early voting) in the Las Vegas area and putting a fitting final nail in Trump’s Nevada coffin.
The next day, Trump arrived in Reno looking like a dead man walking, railing at the scene in Vegas the night before and blaming “crazy, broken Harry Reid and his corrupt political machine.” Trump’s key ally in Nevada, state Republican Chairman Michael McDonald, preceded Trump on the Reno stage and yelled about allowing “a certain group” to vote until the late hours.
They raged, raged against the dying of their chances. Yet about one thing Trump was right: Harry Reid built this. After two years of boosting voter registration among key Democratic demographics, the retiring Senate minority leader has brought turnout among Hispanics in the state to record levels. In doing so, he’s almost surely delivered the state for Hillary Clinton—and possibly with it the presidential race (Trump has only the narrowest path to 270 electoral votes without Nevada). The reality of this election is that if Clinton wins, especially if she ends up needing Nevada, it’s not a stretch to declare that Reid was the single most important person in her victory.
Harry Reid cost Hillary Clinton from becoming the Democratic nominee back in 2008.
Payback is a Bitch.

you are the biggest fucking idiot on the planet. your combination of paranoia, schizophrenia and extremely low IQ makes your posts unreadable. what can you possibly do for a living? how do you function on a day to day basis believing that it is "somewhat likely" that you and the rest of humanity will be wiped out in a few months?
i beg you to stop posting here. and in all seriousness, you should unplug from the internet entirely. you're too stupid to discern true issues with fake ones. you believe everything you read as long as it is in video and/or meme form. this can't be good for your emotional wellness. even you would admit that

BTW I believe that some (probly most tbh) pollsters have been targeting college educated men (people that have to maintain professionalism most of the time) when a man answers the phone. If a guy answers with 'hello this is john smith how can I help you' or something like that they take the poll but if its something like "hello" or "yeah" they hang up.
PREPARE FOR THE SLIDE

John Oliver predicted that The Cubs would never win the World Series and that Americans would reject Donald Trump.
