Incidentally if those Georgia numbers are true that's extraordinary and suggests Trump is starting to lose a big chunk of the evangelical vote.

It's baffling how he has managed to maintain any of that vote at all.

It's like being in love.  Every fault seems charming, and every time someone tells you this is a wrong person for you, you just want them more.

In the primaries there was a big class/educational divide in the evangelicals between Trump and Cruz. That may be starting to reassert itself.

I received some Trump campaign mail asking for a donation.  Included was a Trump Card with my name on it!  :w00t:

Ha, what a bunch of retards sending a solicitation letter to such a fiercely devoted Gary Johnson supporter.  :rolleyes:

You had better stay on my good side, Yi :contract:

Incidentally, I gotta applaud "powers that be" for playing the Bernie bros crowd like a fucking fiddle. They thought they were going not just "changing the game", but perhaps "breaking the game", but they have been played the worst.  :D
Good. Bernie Bros are the absolute worst <_<

Quelle arrogance, monsieur.

How are they "the worst", pray tell?

Cultish devotion to their guy. Middle class white lads who'll be fine regardless of who wins getting all St. Sebastian over supporting someone unelectable. Entitled with a little hint of sexism/racism/homophobia.

They're like benign Corbynistas, or even more dangerous Naderists <_<

So, not unlike the video game industry then.

Slightly different. The gamer crowd is closer to the alt-right/libertarians - autistic neckbeards who are into "game theory".

Bernie bros are the same crowd that watches Young Turds and their Armenian-genocide-denying leader.
