I'd guess he knows that, but he also knows it will resonate with a lot of people he wants to vote for him.

I'd say it's 50/50 he knows the process. But he's speaking to his supporters and my guess is there might be 1 in 100 who know the process. MIGHT be. Just like every other piece of simplistic bullturd that falls out of his mouth that the knuckle-draggers take for the gospel. Civics has been lost on at least the last generation of Americans, and maybe more than the last generation.

That would also implicate every other politician pandering for votes. "Know your audience."
They just find the demographic where they can get votes. Just sayin'.

I doubt he knows it, but he's still playing to the crowd. The NRA has drilled it into their army's heads that any interpretation of the 2nd short of "no restrictions ever" is "repeal." I guarantee the idea that "Hillary will take our guns!!!" is already lodged in their heads.

No, Warren is playing it perfectly. She wrestles the pig so everybody else can stay clean, and she is beyond reproach so it doesn't harm her at all. It's like getting pantsed by Emily Dickinson. Plus, Trump is a typical elementary school bully, so he will not be able to help responding, and the more you have him doing that the more repulsive he is to the electorate.
Meh. That's a playground taunt. As a very public official, she should know better than to stoop to Trump's level, even if you and I can do it, and think it's funny.
I called him "Dangerous D-B@g Dishonest Don" on FB earlier, knowing that a Trumpster friend of my uncle would see it and probably raise his hackles. Said I was giving the playground bully a little taste of his own meds. It was immature as all hell, but it felt good.

Re: Campaign 2016 Part XVI: KICK THE BABY!
*sigh* I like Warren and her general economic stances (credit card companies, financial institutions, etc) but other than that? Ugh.
However, I agree, she is doing the dirty work of the (D) party. And doing well.

It's like saying that the DMV and drunk driving laws are going to take your cars away, but good luck trying to explain that to those mouth breathing idiots.

Re: Campaign 2016 Part XVI: KICK THE BABY!
Can you imagine what kinds of carnage we'd have on the highways if cars were as ubiquitous in the Founders' time as they are today? Any attempt to control or regulate them would be met with the howls of the mouth breathers. There'd be next to no safety equipment mandated, no seat belts, no airbags, no survivable crush zones. How you use your car would be left almost entirely up to you, so no driver education, no age limit (young OR old) on driving and nearly zero laws about conduct on the streets, like speed limits or parking regulations. Instead of 30,000 or so highway fatalities every year there would be a million or more.

Maybe the local committees, in order to get the younger generation of people out to vote, do this.
1. Make the voting place a poke-stop.
2. When the people get there, put instructions on their screen that if you fill out the ballot, you will catch all the pokemon.

Re: Campaign 2016 Part XVI: KICK THE BABY!
Actually, there may be some situations around the country where as a result of drunk driving related conduct your car can be taken away, iirc.

South Carolina and Arizona are back to red on the 538 now-cast
as of right now, Hillary has a 29.9% chance in SC and 38.9% in AZ on the now-cast
I think we've passed 'Peak Hillary' but who knows how much traction the 2nd amendment comments will get and what the affect will be on polls.

That is (a) a good thing and (b) generally considered a good idea, certainly not opposed to the point where it's the only issue some people vote on.

And those are the type of attacks that get under The Donald's skin. That, and how incompetent he is at business.
You can't go after him as unhinged, or unqualified, or not having the proper temperament. He'll just snark those right off. But Warren knows what does get to him, and she's bringing it with heat.

Interesting stuff on 538. Up until today it has been consistently Now > Polls Only > Polls Plus for Hillary. I kinda assumed that was just a progressive amplification of the lead, but as of today the three metrics are all over the place -- different states are closer in different methodologies.

And The Donald Just Keeps Going
I am sure Right Wing pundits will defend this like some have defended his Second Amendment BS...this guy has to be stopped. No more false equivalency BS the guy is full on evil. He has now said both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama created ISIS...good lord.
