What will it take for Mr. Lemon to denounce objectively horrible things? Stay tuned next week!

Or noticed it was a different man entirely? I see my physician maybe 3 times a year if all is well… I’d still know if it was a different person that was examining me. People are not clones especially those decades apart in age. Did this guy ever actually give Trump an exam?

3544

Looking at his quotes, I’d say it’s almost impossible that he actually did.

Or maybe he sent Vince McMahon in pretending to be him or something. Thing is, when you’re 70, you’re never in peak physical condition. My step-father was possibly the most fit person of that age that I’ve ever known and he had plenty of issues. Keeping in shape itself will do damage to you after that many years, and Trump never struck me as a guy who spends all his time at the gym.

3545

I’m more optimistic than you (also, I’m watching from a really big distance, so I might be missing something). I see no chance he wins the election even if he is the nominee. In my mind it is more of a France 2002, when the NF placed second the first election and was wiped out in the second round. It was the beginning of a real problem (the one we are seeing right now, with them having a real chance at winning) that will be further down the line.

It’s more that the crazy seems to have been let out of the bag, and looking at similar events, it’s hard to put it back in.

3546

Hey, didn’t France have a recent election where people thought that the reactionaries were going to win, so the turn out went up during the second round of voting?

3547

Not reactionaries exactly (it’s darker), but yes, same thing as in 2002, or similar enough, except that the voting base of the NF has gone up since then (the problem gotten worse)…

3548

This is getting ridiculous. Donald Trump can’t wash his hair properly because of water regulations.

Asked about the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) “Waters of the United States” rule at a campaign event in Aiken, S.C., on Saturday, Trump said it significantly impairs his ability to rinse, lather and repeat.

“I’ll give you one regulation,” Trump said. “So I build, and I build a lot of stuff. And I go into areas where they have tremendous water. … And you have sinks where the water doesn’t come out.

“You have showers where I can’t wash my hair properly,” he added. “It’s a disaster.

“It’s true. They have restrictors put in. The problem is you stay under the shower for five times as long."

Man, when Andy Kaufman pulls off the prosthetics, wig, and bodysuit at the end of all this, I am gonna have a good, long, hard laugh-cry.

3550

Here. This is a very special thing, only for people that want to crylaught

A Donald Trump voter, in the wild.

3551

I grew up in eastern Tennessee, Teiman. Guys like that are a dime a dozen around my Facebook… That’s why I just haunt these forums instead of torturing myself on there!

3552

Haha, “isn’t polluting my body with the devil’s lettuce my right as a free American?”

3553

The Devil’s lettuce goes great with deviled ham.

3554

So is Trump going to the Barry Goldwater of our era and hand everything over to the Democrats. If so, I would feel comfortable with a Bernie win.

3555

I was just reading through the results of the newest WaPo/ABC News poll, and holy cats, it’s looking really, really bad for the GOP.

First, close to 60% of Republican and right-leaning independents agree with Trump’s idea to ban Muslims from entering the US, but nationwide, 60% of adults think it is the wrong thing to do.

More amazing to me is that Trump has actually surged ahead in the polls after suggesting the ban. His lead in the GOP primary polling went from 32 to 38%. I didn’t really think he’d plummet or anything, but a 15% rise? Wow.

More amazing (in context) is that nationwide, Cruz has ALSO gained in the polls. His (nationwide) scores have roughly doubled from 8 to 15%… and this is at the same time that Trump’s numbers have increased. I guess we now know where the Carson supporters go: the ex-neurosurgeon has fallen from 22% to 12%, and it looks like his support was split between Cruz and Trump.

The problem for the Republican party is that a matchup between Hilary and either Trump or Cruz is disastrous for them. The poll gives Clinton the edge 50/44 to Trump and similar numbers against Cruz. That’s pretty bad considering an Obama/Romney matchup around this same time was much closer to 50/50.

3556

Yeah, I wonder if moderate Republicans will sit this one out with a Cruz or Trump win, and Democrats will take both branches?

3557

As I said, the biggest problem that this is going to cause for the republicans isn’t simply that they’re going to lose the presidency.

If Trump is the nominee, they will almost certainly inspire a massive protest turn-out against him, and they will lose not only the presidency, but both houses of congress. But on some level, I almost hope for this to happen, so that the reasonable part of the GOP can say, “OK? ARE WE DONE WITH THIS EXPERIMENT NOW?”

Of course, you’ll likely have nutjob folks saying “We lost because he wasn’t crazy ENOUGH!”

Whatever. Just say Smith. It doesn’t matter. None of this matters.

Yeah, I wonder if moderate Republicans will sit this one out with a Cruz or Trump win, and Democrats will take both branches?

Moderates I know, myself included, are likely to actually vote against Trump.

Indeed, if Trump is the nominee, my current plan is to pull the big “D” lever. I’ve never voted a party ticket, EVER, in my entire time as an adult. I’ve always, in every single election, split my vote between both parties, generally leaning towards the republicans.

But if Trump is the nominee, I am going to pull the D as a pure protest vote. If that is where the party decides to go, then I want them to lose as bad as possible. I want to shatter the party so we can start picking up the pieces.

For Cruz? Meh… I won’t vote for him, but he’s at least a rational human being. He’s a dick, and his statements about things like muslims are reprehensible as well… but he at least isn’t literally offering up messages identical to Hitler. I don’t think Cruz would actually lead to some global conflict with the US as the bad guys.

3558

Have to admit, that’s pretty humorous.

3559

So now this is happening:

At least no one can pretend that racism isn’t a problem in the US anymore.

3560

I read that is staged. But is still very fun, I think, yea :D

The building at second 0:04 is decorated with venice art style

Venice has a rich and diverse architectural style, the most famous of which is the Gothic style. Venetian Gothic architecture is a term given to a Venetian building style combining use of the Gothic lancet arch with Byzantine and Ottoman influences. The style originated in 14th-century Venice, where the confluence of Byzantine style from Constantinople met Arab influence from Moorish Spain. Chief examples of the style are the Doge’s Palace and the Ca’ d’Oro in the city. The city also has several Renaissance and Baroque buildings, including the Ca’ Pesaro and the Ca’ Rezzonico.[/b]

Is this some sort of in-joke?

3561

I feel the same way. Not only is it so bizarre that it’s funny, but it’s also an interesting look at the psychological state of many people.
