Ultimately, it's by far the biggest prize of the election. Nothing else is really close. It's been settling health care, social issues, immigration. I think Hillary can inch the ball forward incrementally in a direction I prefer. I'll certainly vote for her. If the R's didn't have both seats of power, Trump and his narcissism would concern me less. But what she can actually get done beyond the court is small in the short term.Originally Posted by ToasterOven
You're a bright guy, you cannot believe this is true.
I'm pretty sure Trump's not a true believer, but I think he's lazy and could just delegate everything to true believers, so I care, because that would flip everything for two years until the Dems sweep the mid-terms, as they would. It would be like regrexit on steroids the minute people see Trump in the Oval Office. Democrats have all the demographics trending their way, so it always comes back to the court. They'd regain power and easily be able to reverse anything Trump did domestically if they have the court. Without it, trouble. Almost every court case has broke our way the past 4 years. Appointing SC justices is the prize. When I say all we're playing for, it's not to diminish the stakes. If Hillary wins, we'll get lazy and not show up for mid-terms once again, she'll get obstructed to death, but ultimately win in the courts.
What do you see approaching that importance?

Oh, I agree that the court is the big get. There are a lot of ways Trump can ruin the world that Hillary would not, though. I could see Trump conceding eastern Europe to Putin, pretty easily. He loves Putin. Trump has suggested Japan and Saudi Arabia get a nuclear weapon. It's pretty easy to see N Korea preemptively attacking Japan. So much bad.
I would love to see how many times Hillary's name was said after this convention is over.

Interesting. For the first time the GOP platform despite picking a known Adelson pocket picker as VP there is NO mention about banning Online Poker in the 2016 platform for the GOP. This plank had been present every year since 2004 in case anybody was wondering.https://prod-static-ngop-pbl.s3.amazonaws.com/media/documents/DRAFT_12_FINAL[1]-ben_1468872234.pdf
That's good news.
It should also be noted that the DOJ crackdowns against online poker over the past 7+ years, including Black Friday, were done by Democratic Obama appointees.
BTW Newt Gingrich was one of the first Republicans to come out in favor of legalizing online poker, back in the early 2000s.

I actually hate myself for nearly forgetting the greatest moment in political discourse history:
Fuck it, if the economy collapses it's pretty much donkdown for you whining libtards. I'd like to see how tolerant you are when a black kid bitch slaps you and takes your property because you were against guns, yet never bothered to get your heart rate over 80 and at least take a self defense class.
Either way, Clinton or Trump, the shit is hitting the fan. GG American prosperity.

More campaign incompetence. Somehow they allowed a rival a primetime slot without getting an endorsement, and Cruz used the spot to fuck him.
Start watching at 19:50.
Hilarious. Cruz totally trolled that crowd. Made a pretty standard Republican speech for the first 20 minutes, and then dropped the bomb of "vote your conscience", refusing to endorse Trump, even as the crowd chanted "Endorse Trump!" over and over.
Cruz probably couldn't believe that he was invited to speak in such a slot, and realized this was his chance to get back at Trump for all of his "Lyin' Ted" stuff during the primary.
Trump has a problem in that he was really, really mean and nasty to his primary opponents -- and that's basically how he won -- but now they all resent him immensely and won't endorse him.
The lack of endorsements from these former opponents actually means something, because it sends a message to the average Republican of, "If prominent figures in the Republican Party like Bush and Cruz won't support Trump, then I feel totally good about not supporting him, either."
This campaign is such a fail that I just have to laugh.
I think it might be best for the Republican Party that they suffer a major beatdown this election cycle, so they can realize the major reforms they need to make in their strategies, and come back strong in 2018 and 2020.

Meredith McIver, the speechwriter responsible for the Melania speech, was pretty back in 1986, and surprisingly youthful looking for 35.
This is her today:
I wonder if Trump banged her back in the '80s.

This would mark a 180 degree change in Republican foreign policy in 4 years. Do they even care? I'm not talking casual voters, I'm talking full time party activists. This is really bizarre.
