      Julian Assagne is supposed to have a big Wikileaks announcement this week. Reportedly, he will announce it from his London balcony.

      Does he get pushed / shot / jump? I'm betting on an unforseen structural failure due to somebody growing weed in the basement.

        The answer is neither. Trump merely takes advantage of a rigged system. It certainly has nothing to do with his personal level of intelligence. The idiots are the ones out there who believe Trump is a genius about anything.

          Unless he has Drumpfs taxes I am not sure if will matter...people are bored by the email crap releasing more won't move the needle. If it is more Russian Conspiracy Theories people will just mock him. That guy had an ego that rivals Drumpf.

            He probably has the "Millennial in basements" stuff and got beat to the punch so he's editing it.

                    Probably. There are ways of getting to 270 for him losing NV and NC, but they are difficult to imagine. e.g., taking PA and CO... but if he took them he would be very unlikely not to pick up at least NC too.

                    We're still in the post-debate bump, but Hillary's low point before the debate is just as unlikely to be the natural resting level as the bounce now -- and even if it were, he was still losing.

                    I just don't think we can count him out, because there has been nothing new horrible about Trump that wasn't horrible before. I really think Trump's 45%ishness is impervious to news, or logic, or reason. They're giving the rest of us a middle finger, Trump is the finger, so in a way the grosser he is the bigger the insult is and the better it is for them.

                      No one is counting him out, but what this is showing is that his real only shot to win is if people stay home. He is at his ceiling for support so as long as The Left stays involved he is in a lot of trouble. It took an horrid couple of weeks for him to pull close (in the polls, he was still down in the EV) and he cant count on that happening after every bump she gets. When Hillary is out front talking he just is unable to do anything to make up ground. When she disappears for days at a time people "remember" they hate her and she is evil.

                        Eric Drumpf...Chip Off The Ole Block

                        Apparently tDonald's taxes are super sophisticated and the unwashed asses wouldnt get it.

                        My favorite part:

                        “There is no tax attorney in the world who will tell you to release your tax returns while you’re under a standard, routine audit,” Eric Drumpf. “It would never happen. Anybody who thinks that is in la la land.”

                        However, Fred Goldberg, who was the former IRS commissioner and a tax attorney, pressed Drumpf to make his return public, like his rival Hillary Clinton.

                        “Releasing this information would have no impact on any pending or future IRS audit of Drumpf. Zero. None, „wrote attorney Goldberg. “It is a risk-free first step with no downside. While painting a far from complete portrait, it would answer a few of the questions that Drumpf himself has raised during the campaign: He claims that he makes a lot of money; he claims that he makes significant charitable contributions; and he claims that he reduces his tax liability as far as current law allows.”
                        "It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

                          I think this is a great point. The biggest surprise for me during this campaign is that I've come to respect Hillary the more I see her. It isn't just by comparison to the jackas-s on the other side (though that doesn't hurt), but she's been great in a very difficult position with seemingly impossible and contradictory expectations and an entire class of pundits and partisans massed to peck her to death at every instant.

                          She really is doing "everything Fred did but backwards and in heels," and I think women in particular appreciate that and are starting to feel solidarity with her.

                          I saw something interesting at my work on Friday. As I was leaving there were a couple of women leaving at the same time. My workplace is 90% conservative and I doubt they were any exception. The "is this the president you want for your daughters" ad was on the TV as we exited and we passed it by without comment. However, just outside the door one of my coworkers had parked his truck with a bumper stick that reads "Trump That B-tch!" The women exchanged a look of disgust and walked on.

                          I'm sure Republican women are telling their husbands they're voting for him, and they'll tell pollsters and even exit polls they did. Who wants to get popped in the mouth? But the voting booth is private. There may be a quiet "Rural Spring" in November.
