      They just pull Redneck Republican buzzwords out of a hat. The next one will be the “Organization to Freedom the Bible.”

      It’s a group that makes sure Great Britian never has the opportunity to reclaim the United States as a colony.

    Bizarre idea: Maybe they could take all those piles of money that are burning holes in their pockets and donate them to worthwhile charities and/or medical research???

      Ha! Charity is not really a virtue if you believe in meritocracy and want a fascist greedwhore as president.

      Donald Trump the Least Charitable Billionaire in the World

      “Billionaire.” The longer he holds out on the tax returns, the less money I think he actually has. If he doesn’t release them by October, I’ll assume he just has a wallet full of moths.

    Trump is going to rely on free press but people will have “Trump Burnout” by October. Every time he appears on the news after September, people will change the channel. His entertainment value will be tired and oversaturated.

    The GOP’s strategy is becoming more clear.

    Tepidly endorse Trump, but maintain a safe distance so that you ride off his xenophobic and racist coat-tails through silence, but still push the “traditional” GOP talking points. It’s essentially a state of plausible deniability.

    I think it will probably work in the down-ticket races. With polls tightening, I don’t see the dems taking the House, the Senate will be a little closer, but I don’t see it flipping.

      The Senate was already likely to flip before Trump.

      Yep, this year is the most competitive Senate year in three cycles, and the one where more Republican Senators are up for reelection.

      Add in Trump, and it might be a good year.

    This election cycle has really put into perspective for me that humankind has been around for over a hundred thousand years, and that this shit is BORING. A hundred thousand years plus and this is where we are. Not Senator Robot Legs (R) The Negative Zone) vs Vice Sharkmaster Laser Hands (D) Free Republic of Cyborgs). This is so lame I'm hoping Farrah Abraham does something interesting.

      Ain’t it the truth. I mean some people have tried to nudge things along, but as so often, a prophet is not without hono(u)r, save in his own riding.

      He’ll take whatever money and say anything he thinks you want him to say. He’s the second coming of Reagan.

      That’s cruel and disgusting, nobody wants to think about either Trump or Reagan coming, not even once.

    It’s always impressive to see a con game operating at this scale, where the big (orange) cheese has so many suckers out there that there’s plenty of opportunity for smaller grifters to move in, too.

      Can’t use “invade”. Try “liberate” or “Bring Freedom”

    Donald Trump—who needs to raise $1 billion if he wants to even be competitive in the general election

    What a profoundly stupid waste of money.

    USEFULL things could be done with that money, but no, negative attack ads and mindless junk mail for all.
