    So you're saying Trump is going to become the next Grond?  Grow two more arms ("all the better to fondle you with, my dear"), horns (he's already a horndog), grow in size ('I'm HUUUUGE!"), and have the Psychological Complication of, and I quote the character sheet, "Childishly Naive and Prone to Tantrums" (no comment).

    For the record, Audie Murphy, the most decorated US soldier of all time and the closest we've ever come to Captain America IRL, suffered from PTSD. Being "stronger" has nothing to do with susceptibility to PTSD.

    Yeah, he's got problems on the Foundation front. Bringing up the Clinton Foundation is just an opportunity for her to knock his block off with this stuff.

    No.  According to NPR the sex tape that he is referencing doesn't exist.  Of course being the good, thorough journalist that they are they had to watch a number of other sex tapes make sure that they weren't the one.  You know, just to be responsible.

    Hillary was sharp, poised and well-prepared. Trump was incoherent, sputtering and sniffing and frequently interrupting her. He bungled several topics, including the birther issue, his treatment of women, his tax returns and business affairs, and foreign policy. The only time he made a positive foray was on trade.

    If his numbers climb after last night's performance then we're in even deeper trouble than we thought.
     
    Forget Watson - we need a panel of political scientists, historians, and supreme court judges sitting around a table with buzzers fact checking in real time.  Any time someone says something irrefutably false they get a buzz.  Three buzzes and you need to swap out with your running mate for the rest of the debate.

    Republicans want to gain control of the Consumer Protection Bureau's funding. Since this group just slammed Wells Fargo for 185 million dollars and a bunch of ongoing fraud, maybe they shouldn't fix what's not broken.

    The new cheerleading uniforms feature helmets and shoulder-pads, so cheerleaders can emergency-substitute for players during the game.  Unfortunately, it's a basketball game.

    Well, based upon the polls and surveys I've seen, the commentary on social media, reports and videotape from Trump rallies, interviews with Trump supporters, a list of Trump endorsers, allies and associates(and their associations), I'd say "half" is roughly in the ballpark. It's a bit more nuanced than Obama's "bitter...cling" and Romney's "47%" comments, because she went on to say that the other half of his supporters have legitimate economic anxieties and concerns. Still, the media is never more reticent than when it comes to calling out the garden variety casual racism of a large minority of white citizens. Probably because they know 1) there will be a vicious backlash to being called out; and 2) they know some friends, family, associates or neighbors who hold such views and calling it out puts them in an awkward position socially.

    Anyone who knows a woman who works in the public sector should be aware that this is her reasoning.  I've seen it at work, I've seen it in my wife and her career (government worker) - if a woman in a position of power or authority allows herself to act in even the most slightly 'unprofessional' way (what they mean is 'emotional') whatever they are saying is frequently dismissed as 'exaggerated' or 'hysterical'.
     
    She's no 'colder' or more 'aloof' than other western female political figures past and present: Thatcher, Queen Elizabeth, or Merkel to name a few.  Many act similar (and are similarly criticised) because to do otherwise just provides their opponents / detractors another avenue of attack.

    Not the presidential race, but political to a degree.
     
    My state, NC, has passed a law called HB2 which had three announced parts when it was signed in. The first part is that transgendered people have to go to the bathroom of their sex on their birth certificate. The second was discrimination cases would have to go to federal court instead of state court (which was repealed), and no city could write an ordinance that might be considered infringing on the state's power. The first part of the law was struck down for public schools by the 4th District. Charlotte Meckleburg went back to allowing trans to go to their appropriate bathroom and told the governor to suck it.
     
    Delivering the Journal today, I noticed that McCrory stated that another part of the law not commented on was a minimum wage freeze for the state, and he blamed the law on the chamber of commerce for helping to write it.
     
    Seriously a wage freeze in the middle of a discrimination law. I am glad my son talked me into voting. I can't wait to vote against this goon.
