Donald Trump senior advisor and social media director Dan Scavino tweeted Wednesday about a new Florida Atlantic University poll showing Trump beating rival Hillary Clinton by a whopping fourteen points:

The problem is that Dan is blatantly lying. The actual poll shows Clinton beating Trump three points, 46 to 43.

No, No, No, Rick, you didn't understand: "Trump has a 17-point lead among white voters, 53 to 36 percent." White voters. You see, only white vote counts, if you support Trump.


A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.

Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich

I set foot into Idaho often. They are (at least the ones I have met) very good people. Many of them are mine-=- by marriage-- relatives.

Somehow I think there must be a translation problem. I shall work on that then get back to you. Could be a fools errand------- but I shall try.


Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.

I think there are legitimate concerns that are reflected in the supporters of Trump. I just think their anger is incredibly misdirected.

The Lonely Life of a Republican Woman

S. E. Cupp
The New York Times
October 27, 2016

Quote
As has become typical in an election marked by its often unpleasant surprises, I awoke to a storm of outrage on Twitter on Wednesday morning. Newt Gingrich had told Fox’s Megyn Kelly that she was “fascinated with sex” and didn’t “care about public policy.”

Mr. Gingrich unleashed this boorish attack after Ms. Kelly tried to pin him down on whether the many accusations of sexual assault against Donald J. Trump, and his own words on the matter, should disqualify him from the presidency.

That Mr. Gingrich (with whom I once hosted a television show) thought the best way to deflect attention from Mr. Trump’s awful behavior with women was to attack another woman tells you so much about the depths to which Mr. Trump has dragged the Republican Party.

It’s also a sobering harbinger of how hard it’s going to be for the party to win back Republican women, let alone appeal to new female voters in the future.

As a conservative woman who wanted very much to support the Republican nominee, it’s been a deeply disappointing year and a half. After helping the Republican National Committee address some of the troubling deficiencies the party faced after 2012, as outlined in its so-called autopsy report, and witnessing some real progress in our outreach to women in the ensuing years, I did not expect an egomaniacal arsonist to come along and set all that ablaze.

No, the egomaniacal arsonist is Daryl Issa. You can google it.

For Trump, there is a simple solution: Republican women should pay attention to how they feel when they go in the voting booth. Do you feel nauseated? Is your pulse racing? Do you have cold sweats?

That's PTSD. You're flashing back on that time you were molested by a masher, or worse. Voting for Trump would be like putting that man in a position of power over you again. Just vote for Hillary. You don't need to tell anybody, and you'll feel a lot better.
