re: #294 thedopefishlives

I wonder what the Vegas odds are on Drumpf finishing his term as President. And let’s not even get into re-election, although that’s a distinct possibility if the Democrats offer up another Hillary… Again, I think she was perfectly well qualified; I just think the baggage was a major turnoff for too many swing voters.

Which is, unfortunately, proof of how well the politics of personal destruction work:

(manufactured outrage)

Press: What about manufactured outrage?

HRC: It’s bullshit. Total bullshit.

Press: Clinton stonewalls!

HRC: Oh, for fuck’s sake! Here’s reams and reams of documentation that it’s bullshit!

Press: It’s bullshit, but why did Clinton wait so long to release documentation nobody else ever has to produce? Why is she so secretive? It just raises more questions!
