The insulting of everyone's intelligence is staggering.

Doesn't that happen here on a regular basis?

We only insult those who lack intelligence

I have no idea about this Bannon guy (sounds like an idiot) but Kellyanne Conway is a very smart woman, expert at what she does. She's the Republican version of the character played by that deaf actress (can't remember her name) on The West Wing. But what can she do to turn this around?

Carribean. And it's been great. The top deck has several pools and a big screen to watch the Olympics, and I've met a lot of people up there. I don't bring up politics (hard to believe, right?) but more than one person has. 

Caribbean in the summer? Must have gotten great rates!

Marlee Matlin is the actress I believe

RYAN: Can we get Cohen off TV?
TRUMP: Why, 'cause he's bad at it?
RYAN: Yes.
TRUMP: My worry is, we pull that string, pretty soon no sweater

He isn't insulting anyone's intelligence.  He is manipulating/capitalizing on people's lack of it.

Conway may be an expert pollster, but she has no experience running a campaign.

And Bannon is just pond scum. Trump only brought him on for the message...Far right wing conspiracy message

You like gambling right?  Since you say that there's not a chance in hell he loses in Florida, what say we gamble? 

If he is ahead in the polls (according to 538) in FL on election day, I'll vote for Johnson instead of Trump (as you were begging people to do a few pages back).  When he loses FL, you never post on FBG again.  What do you say?

1) That's not a bet. There are two different contingencies and two different stakrs

2) Em's "win" of the bet is worthless. If Trump is leading a poll you won't vote for him? Why would he want that?

2) Earlier, he was begging people to vote for Johnson, instead of Clinton, since that would be (in effect) a vote for Trump.  I won't vote for Trump, under any circumstances, so that was the best offer I would make.

1) You're right-it's not really a bet & the idea of casting a vote based on a gamble, bet, deal, etc doesn't sit right with me anyway.  I'll delete the post.

[timschochet]

So of all the different theories for Trump's candidacy, the one that seems to make the most sense is the original one: the Republican base flipped out. They rebelled against their establishment. If Trump hasn't been there they would have gone with Cruz. They were never going to choose a candidate with a chance to win.

[SIZE=14pt]Bill Kristol Says Rename Breitbart 'Right-wing Intolerant Mean-spirited News'[/SIZE]

 

 

[Righetti]

The answer to your question is yes. If you check out Freerepublic.com, the posters there absolutely think the pollsters are lying to them and are all part of a media conspiracy. They are convinced Trump is going to win in a landslide. One guy wrote the other day that he lives in Boston and all he sees are Trump signs, no Hillary signs, and he is positive Trump will carry that state. 

The cruise I'm on left from New Jersey and there are lots of people from New Jersey. Guy I met yesterday, big Trump fan, told me to ignore the polls, that nobody wanted to admit they were for Trump but that everybody he knew was for him " including all the blacks and Latinos!" He guaranteed a Trump victory. 

I think I know this guy

You have literally 65000 more posts than me and something around 50 more likes. As horrible of a metric as that is, let's go ahead and agree you aren't the best judge on post content.

Buddy you're on a cruise. Get loaded and start talking some serious ****. You gotta for all you're worth out there, people from all walks of life and all corners of the continent, have some fun. You may actually learn a thing or two along the way. Cheers, enjoy the trip.

On Trump's medical letter (Dr. who's name is on the letterhead died in 2010) 

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jennifer-gunter/im-a-doctor-heres-concerning-trumps-medical-letter_b_11565838.html

Did Dr. Bornstein write it? If so he should be embarrassed. It’s medically illiterate. If he doesn’t know his website doesn’t work or if that he’s not in the Division of Gastroenterology, that’s an issue.
Did Trump write it? He’ll never tell. It certainly reads like a letter written by someone with close to no knowledge of Dr. Bornstein’s practice or medicine.
All I can say is, typos and weird links and mentions of non-existent sections of gastroenterology and nonsensical medical information aside, the letter provides essentially no medical information.
After this was originally posted, someone mentioned that Dr. Jacob Bornstein died in 2010.
Was an old doctor’s letter used as a template with the person copying the letterhead not knowing or remembering that the elder Dr. Bornstein had passed away? Is this Dickensian six-year-old letterhead with the name of the deceased still at the top?

- The press and Hillary do not hound him enough on this minutiae. I can't believe it took a year for this to be revisited.

 

[[scooter]]

Just a shot in the dark, but I'm gonna guess that Dr. Bornstein got a really good bulk deal on letterhead sometime in the '90s and his son just couldn't bear to throw it all out when he died.

Wasn't there someone here who used "number of yard signs I see" data to guarantee a Romney victory?

I think Peggy Noonan was the founder of that shtick.

"And there’s the thing about the yard signs. In Florida a few weeks ago I saw Romney signs, not Obama ones. From Ohio I hear the same. From tony Northwest Washington, D.C., I hear the same."

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

As comfortable as Mr. Trump may feel with Mr. Bannon’s style of politics, their unconventional alliance, and the possibility that the coming weeks could resemble a conservative publicity tour more than a conventional White House run, fueled speculation that Mr. Trump was already looking past November.

In recent months, Mr. Trump and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, have quietly explored becoming involved with a media holding, either by investing in one or by taking one over, according to a person close to Mr. Trump who was briefed on those discussions.

Meet Harold Bornstein, Personal Physician to Donald Trump


- 12/14/15

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

“Latterly, Breitbart emerged as a nationalist site and done great stuff on immigration in particular,” VDARE.com editor Peter Brimelow told The Daily Beast.
VDare is a white supremacist site. It’s named after Virginia Dare, the first white child born to British colonists in North America. Brimelow said he and Bannon met briefly last month and exchanged pleasantries about each other’s work.
“It’s irritating because VDARE.com is not used to competition,” Brimelow added. “I presume that is due to Bannon, so his appointment is great news.”
Brimelow isn’t the only prominent white nationalist to praise the Bannon hire. Richard Spencer, who heads the white supremacist think tank National Policy Institute, said he was also pleased. Under Bannon’s leadership, Breitbart has given favorable coverage to the white supremacist Alt Right movement. And Spencer loves it.
“Breitbart has elective affinities with the Alt Right, and the Alt Right has clearly influenced Breitbart,” he said. “In this way, Breitbart has acted as a ‘gateway’ to Alt Right ideas and writers. I don’t think it has done this deliberately; again, it’s a matter of elective affinities.”

Spencer said Breitbart and Bannon have helped Alt Right ideas gain legitimacy—and, more importantly, exponentially expand their audiences. He cited the work of Milo Yiannopoulos as evidence of this.
“As is evident with Milo’s piece on the Alt Right, Breitbart has people on board who take us seriously, even if they are not Alt Right themselves.”
Yiannopoulos wrote a piece on March 29, 2016, about the Alt Right, praising its members as “dangerously bright,” and cheering the VDARE and American Renaissance sites as an “eclectic mix of renegades.” American Renaissance is helmed by Jared Taylor, who advocates for voluntary racial segregation and says African Americans are genetically predisposed to be criminals.
Yiannopoulos defended Brimelow and Taylor by saying they “don’t want to commit any pogroms,” which is … not a very comforting sentiment.
