He has gone quiet on the voting thing.

I like the idea that none of the above would have beat the both of them had none of the above been a real candidate. Apparently.

Found this a very amusing opinion poll.

Yes Trump is very unpopular by historic standards and yet if the election were rerun today 43% would vote for him.....but only 40% would vote for Clinton. So he would still win hehe

Maybe next time the Democratic party will find a more enticing candidate than HC.
I found one;

Today then, for some possibly interesting testimony. Or not.
The administration are trying to distance themselves from Flynn and Yates. Flynn was a lone loose cannon (hum where have we heard that before), with no connection to Trump well apart from Trump campaign adviser, transition adviser, and White House adviser - obviously.
Yates was a democratic stooge out to get our saviour Trump.

The early warning of anything interesting will be a tweetstorm, but I imagine most of it will be confidential/classified anyway so I'd not expect much to come of it.

At best I think she'll contradict the administration under oath, something they've been doing to themselves since they got in the door so I do not expect anything of consequence to be honest.

It's come already in the latest of DonaldGrump's tweets
Ask Sally Yates, under oath, if she knows how classified information got into the newspapers soon after she explained it to W.H. Council.

reports again yesterday that the Wihte house were trying again to stop Sally Yates testimony
https://twitter.com/funder/status/8616283620826152...
Hill Sources: White House contacted multiple GOP Senators TODAY asking them to cancel Yates hearing

Ted Lieu has asked if the Blotus violated 18 USC 1512, which prevents "intimidation" of a witness to "influence" testimony in "official proceeding"?
https://twitter.com/tedlieu/status/861648695971897...

“Whoever knowingly uses intimidation, threatens, or corruptly persuades another person, or attempts to do so, or engages in misleading conduct toward another person, with intent to— (1) influence, delay, or prevent the testimony of any person in an official proceeding; (2) cause or induce any person to— (A) withhold testimony, or withhold a record, document, or other object, from an official proceeding; (B) alter, destroy, mutilate, or conceal an object with intent to impair the object’s integrity or availability for use in an official proceeding; (C) evade legal process summoning that person to appear as a witness, or to produce a record, document, or other object, in an official proceeding; or (D) be absent from an official proceeding to which such person has been summoned by legal process; or (3) hinder, delay, or prevent the communication to a law enforcement officer or judge of the United States of information relating to the commission or possible commission of a Federal offense or a violation of conditions of probation supervised release, parole, or release pending judicial proceedings; shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.”

I'll be interested to see if any of them refute her testimony under oath, or if they opt for trial by (fake) media instead.

I know where my money is.

I think Unrep has been moonlighting in the media

https://www.thenation.com/article/trumpism-its-com...

" Even according to pundits on the traditional right, one can find the reason for Trump’s success festering in lower-income white communities, the enemies of racial and social progress, where reactionary politics and redneck racism run rampant."

I'm amazed that this kind of loony left discourse is taken seriously in the US. It's quite scary to be honest.

Wasn't that the demographic he was appealing to with his rhetoric about mexicans and muslims?

Have you actually read the article, or did you stop at the above quote and run here to post this...?

How you can consider the article to be "loony left", I do not know.

Did you read the article? I could have picked a better part to be honest but as a petite bourgeoisie, I'm a bit busy earning a crust and grinding the faces of the poor workers. Read it, if you relate to that persons writing then you're a loon (but i think you wont).

Honestly, I did not know if it was a parody or not. It would appear to this person that everyone who is not like them is a fascist, especially white small business owners. Have I missed something?
