Sorry I can't find it, but the sketch from that episode where host Ariana Grande impersonates Whitney Houston's greatest vocal achievement will make you take back every bad thing you've ever said about entitled millenials you thought were from Florida but actually are Italian.

So, basically, she will say anything.

 

You have to love how utterly devoid these people are of any solid principles that aren't subject to change overnight.

 

Come the election, no one will be able to say what any of the candidates stand for cos by that time they'll have slept with every ideology under the sun

И погибе Српски кнез Лазаре,
И његова сва изгибе војска, 
Седамдесет и седам иљада;
Све је свето и честито било
И миломе Богу приступачно.

Tonight's primaries are in several 'winner takes all'-states, including Florida and Ohio.

 

Will Sanders prove the polls wrong again, like in Michigan? Will Trump finally stump El Rato and The Robot out of the race? This and more on tonight's circus.

Just  a small correction:  Florida and Ohio are "winner take all" only for the Republican primaries; for Democrats the delegate allocation is proportional.  Confusing but true.

*sigh* Why make it simple when there's an open window to complicate things.

It's up to the respective national committees to set the rules.  Heaven forbid that the two parties should actually agree on something.   :biggrin:

Sanders could get Illinois and Ohio, but Florida and NC are likely going to Hillary. Hopefully we get the Trump v Sanders in the general, but I'm thinking Trump won't get it if there's a brokered convention or if Rubio or Cruz drops out while Sanders is a long shot.

I suppose you can.

 

Conservatives on Trump supporters

 

I believe it was Meshugger who posted an article a while back on how Trump was a threat to the GOP because he proved that decades of rhetoric failed to convince lower class Republicans the economic platform was good for them. Looks like they're hitting back at those supporters with the same rhetoric used against poor Democrat voters.

Ohio will be interesting. It's an open primary and Kasich may actually draw Clinton voters in an effort to stop Trump.

 

Sanders big chance for an upset today will have to happen there.

Yup.

 

 

 

The truth about these dysfunctional, downscale communities is that they deserve to die.

 

What the article is saying that the white middle class should die. Huh, that will not backfire in any way, no sir-ree. 

 

There's another aspect that we haven't discussed on why the establishment is so afraid of Sanders and Trump. Think of all those legal loop-holes used for revolving door policy making, all those strange national security laws which can be used to wire-tap anybody and throw them indefinately into prison and all those strange executive orders that makes it possible seize land and property how they see fit. Well, it has worked greatly as long as the president has always been sanctioned, screened and made sure to abide by certain gentlemanly agreements. 

 

Now imagine the panic if the president is someone not of them, but rather an outsider who is hellbent on out to get them and suddenly has all the manpower and legal authority by their own design to do so.

 

Undone by your own creation, that's quite biblical.

Who is 'them', exactly, in your scenario ? Sanders being a revolutionary, I can get, but can't really see Trump doing much to change the order of things - least of all with a Congress that isn't going to dance.

I dont think he means they should die literally..he means from an economic perspective 

 

But the article is just complete invective and unfair generalizations about Trumps supporters...they arent  all that bad

 

He makes it out like they are these absolute scum of the earth

Current KKK leader is endorsing Hillary Clinton and her "secret agenda". Ooooo.... secret agenda! Sounds very conspiratorial.

 

Not that any endorsement from anyone like this should be taken seriously. Unless of course you are a member of the news media and the endorsement is for a Republican. 

 

But I'm posting this purely for it's comedic value: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/12192975/The-KKK-leader-who-says-he-backs-Hillary-Clinton.html
