2016 elections - because it's never too early

[CountDeMoney]

Trump doesn't have the personality type to weather the storm in a debate. He has to react and and strike back, and not doing so would probably give him an aneurism.  It's what got him this far, but it's also what will (hopefully) keep him from going any further.

He relies solely on his own instincts, his gut feelings, his sense of the moment at that moment, accepting no other counsel or direction in addressing his immediate needs.
Then again, so do emotionally disabled 6-year olds.

He has read several teleprompter speeches so far.  He does however seem incapable of delivering a pre-approved talking point without a script.

I will relax once the polls get to 10% in the battleground states.

Any theories as to what Donaldo is hiding in his tax returns?

1. He's not as rich as he says;
2. He doesn't pay any tax; and
3. How highly leveraged he is.

He's claims about charity don't line up with with his public claims.

The knock on Clinton is not that she tolerated Bill's infidelity, but that she enabled a sexual predator and allegedly threatened his victims.

She's got a little bit of a double-standard going herself.  A few months ago she said all rape victims should be believed.  So why doesn't she believe Juanita Broaddrick?

This is a bit of a double-standard coming from you. She was doing what her husband wanted.  Isn't that what you want a wife to do?

N.Y. AG expands probe of Trump's foundation

The New York attorney general is probing Donald Trump's reported use of money from his charitable foundation to settle a private legal dispute, a lawyer for the town of Palm Beach, Florida, confirmed.

The lawyer, John Randolph, said that the attorney general's office contacted him to request documents related to a settlement Trump made with the town of Palm Beach in 2007 over unpaid fines. Last week, the Washington Post reported that Trump settled the dispute by paying $100,000 from the Donald J. Trump Foundation, an apparent violation of self-dealing rules that prevent officers of charitable organizations from using funds for their personal benefit.

Before last week's report, New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman — who is suing Trump for fraud over the business practices of Trump University — revealed he had opened an inquiry into the Trump Foundation over "troubling transactions that have recently come to light."

News that the inquiry had grown to include the Palm Beach settlement was first reported by Talking Points Memo. A spokesman for Schneiderman declined to comment.

Feeds directly into Trump's "rigged system" narrative.

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Americans' trust and confidence in the mass media "to report the news fully, accurately and fairly" has dropped to its lowest level in Gallup polling history, with 32% saying they have a great deal or fair amount of trust in the media. This is down eight percentage points from last year.

Meanwhile the race according to the LAT/USC tracking poll.

This makes absolutely no sense at all.
