anyone that's a Republican to the degree that they look at politics as a sporting match and will argue points they dont believe in so their side wins should have to be accountable for Trump.

one of our staunchest - ok, THE staunchest - R stalwart around here has long ago expressed his utter disgust with Turnip.

It's gotta bug him - like having Adam Eaton as the ace in your team's starting rotation
Yes, but in a double utley you can put your utley on top they other guy's utley, and you're the winner. (Swish)

At least said poster (it's jerseyhoya, we're talking about jerseyhoya) admitted that Trump winning is the worst case scenario for the GOP although I'd be interested on his opinion on Ben Cason's ability to run the USA(i bet it's not a good review).

I feel like Trump at least says crazy shit strategically. I'd be beyond upset if he wins the presidency, but I don't think he's actually as crazy as the character he's playing right now.

Carson seems like he's way out of his mind.

How one idiot Republican is trying to go to war with NOAA scientists: http://www.vox.com/2015/11/22/9777582/lamar-smith-noaa

Truly disgusting. Has no proof of any wrongdoing yet goes around speaking as if scientists are just making shit up.

"NOAA employees altered temperature data to get politically correct results."

The science. It's too politically correct!!!!!

I am not sure which would upset me more - Trump being elected president or living in a country that elected Trump president. I feel like the latter is ultimately scarier.

Let's be honest though, as I said last week, a lot of what Trump is talking about is already going on and has been for years.

-Surveillance on Mosques
-Database on muslims and other extremists

The FBI and Homeland Security have been doing that for the last 14 years. That's why the Patriot Act was created in addition to the expanded powers of the NSA. Hell, there was an entire documentary on Showtime about Dick Cheney where this is all he discussed. Terror plans have been thwarted by the feds who are undercover in these terror cells and Mosques.

Good soundbite though for the Republican base.

"A lot". I'll agree to "some, to a limited extent".

So you're trying to discredit all criticism of this guy's lunacy by citing a few possibilities.

Good plan!

we need to put crescents on all Muslims so we know who is who. It's only sensible!

all Muslims must register. Then they get their crescent. Maybe they deserve to be roughed up a little. Then we let in real Christians (we can tell) as this is a Christian nation!

No, I just think the outrage over the possibilities he's raising is incredibly comical considering it's been going on for 14 years.

People still have no clue what the Patriot Act did to the rights of American citizens. It's pretty pathetic.

Nate Silver still saying that Trump is unlikely to win nomination


my favorite part-

Right now, he has 25 to 30 percent of the vote in polls among the roughly 25 percent of Americans who identify as Republican. (That’s something like 6 to 8 percent of the electorate overall, or about the same share of people who think the Apollo moon landings were faked.)
