It will be an amazing thing to see "Republicans for Hillary" given how much they hate her.

It will be interesting to see if Ben Sasse or one of his contemporaries follow through with a 3rd party run, which would of course make things much simpler for Hillary.

I've looked at exit poll data, where there's standard acceptance for Hillary compared to previous nominees and drastically reduced numbers for Trump. I've seen numerous Republican members of Congress repeatedly attack Trump in the strongest terms, and now say they won't vote for him, with McCain's former chief of staff saying he'll vote for Hillary. I think it's fairly assured that there are middle ground moderate Repubs that are far happier to go with a candidate to their left that is clearly capable of being Commander in Chief, whilst I'm skeptical of liberal Bernie voters shunning a candidate a bit to their right for Donald Trump.
Really not that outrageous.
Do Centrist repulicans also hate Hillary ?
Those members of Congress will change their tune when their constituents tell them they'll be voting for whomever supports The Donald.
Most of them don't come from constituencies with demographics conducive to Trump though.
Dude. You have a Supreme Court appointment (and more in the next 4 yrs) hanging in the balance, potential repeal of several executive actions, etc hanging in the balance, and you think a significant amount of Republicans are gonna ignore that and switch over to Hillary fecking Clinton because Trump is a bit of a nutter?
What's "significant"? As IB said, it only takes a few percent to swing things massively. Can I see a few percent doing it? Yeah, because I think they might be severely put off by a "nutter" holding executive power.
Most of the people working for him was/is Hispanics but he must have a lot courage to eat any food when most of the kitchen workers are Hispanics.He is amazing
This is like something out of a SouthPark episode. I CAN NOT believe that people of USA have made this guy as one of the 2 viable candidates to become the most powerful person on earth. Not sure about this democracy lark anymore.
So he already has a nick name for Hillary -
I wish she would call him an orangutan just for the lolz.
That's a brilliant line of attack from Trump. He is basically saying that Hillary is weak and can't put away Bernie despite being supported by a rigged, corrupt system.
So as the nominee Trump is now going to be getting classified briefings on foreign policy and other matters.
Oh shit...
Oh shit...
A few percent is a massive swing. Still don't see it, especially once Drumpf starts lobbing attacks on Hillary. Stranger things have happened (that's my disclaimer)
I think we'll be hearing a lot of that for the next 6 months
It's true, we are living in a world where Leicester are champions of England.

wordAre you kidding me? Trump isnt that smart.
I don't think there will be a Hillary votes from Republicans, but they might not turn up and vote.
But it keeps working this year.
He's smart enough to con the GOP into voting for him. Now who is kidding who.
Nonsense. He was as surprised by this as anybody else. This was no masterplan by a genius. He ran for the hell of it and has been successful because of luck, dumbass voters and shite establishment candidates who had no idea how to take him on.
He was surprised by the reaction he received given the anti-establishment anger in the country. His decision to do things his way instead of capitulate or dilute himself into ordinary political discourse was his decision and a stroke of genius. Had he listened to his advisors, he wouldn't be where he is today.
Gandhi would have a more muscular foreign policy.
Worth a try.. considering whatever Obama is doing isnt working.
Best reply ever!

Those dishes are very popular in these parts! Mostly because you don't have to wash any plates or bowls afterwards!
* I realize that Trump has both a plate and bowl under his taco, nullifying my attestation.
You don't eat that with your hands, is a bowl made of taco shells.Best reply ever!

No shit Sherlock.
It was a reply on twitter mocking Trumps hands. Hence me saying - best reply ever.
This is only tangentially linked to this election but it's IMO a good read on why compromise is dangerous

For those who haven't been keeping up lately, has anything interesting happened in the Clinton/Bernie race (race being optimistic term, here)?
