QuoteHillary Clinton's Lonesome White Male Supporters

They're awash in Trump fans, who are not shy about their disdain for the Democratic nominee.

I'm very surprised Hillary is losing among white male college educated..

How is does the math in that article even work?  33% of us support Hillary yet only 17% of us without College Degrees do? But 37% of those of us with College Degrees do? Color me skeptical that 80% of all white men have college degrees, which would be required for those numbers to be accurate.

I guess what makes me skeptical is that the numbers I saw suggested 52% of White men support Trump, 57% would be on the high end. Which, combined with the rather extreme numbers on the other two stats, suggest they cherry picked the most outlier and extreme polls to justify their position. Also it is a common left wing BS move to use what people say on the internet as some kind of indication of anything. 'Look at all these cherry picked racist tweets!' Or say shit like XXX people are seen as XXX. Seen as XXX by whom? Hard to counter what is said in the passive voice.

Possibly weirder than languish. And Martin Shkreli is a mod, which is why it occasionally goes private as the SEC investigates.

I'll stick to the highlights (or rather, lowlights) reels tomorrow.

Going to go for 3/3 on not watching these "debates".  I'll tape it just in case I see a lot of gasping here, so that I can watch the replay instead of waiting for Youtube, but otherwise it'll go straight to delete.

All 90 minutes has the potential to be a highlight reel.

Trump at the pre-debate prep.



My prediction: A thermonuclear dumpster fire is how this debate will shake out.

When's kick off?

It already kicked off with some Trump circus press shit with four Bill Clinton accusers. Crazy shit.

I was looking forward to the debate hoping for some fun melt down action, but I'm starting to worry it might not be fun at all.

I don't want to watch the pre-game show.  When's actual kick off?
