Decent bounce.

View of Putin and Russia:

7% of Americans view Putin favorably to 69% with a negative opinion and only 14% see Russia as a whole favorably to 52% with a negative view.

By a 47 point margin 5% more likely, 52% less likely voters say they're less likely to vote for a candidate if it's perceived Russia is interfering in the election to try to help them.

Also by a 26 point margin 9% more likely, 35% less likely; they're less likely to vote for a candidate seen as being friendly toward Russia.


Also 33% of Republicans polled thought Hillary has ties to Lucifer and by 66% to 22% think Hillary is a bigger threat to the US than Russia. Too much AM talk radio has gone into these peoples heads.


How...?

What...?

Clinton/Kaine 2016

It is the solemn and patriotic duty of all true Americans to prevent the election of Donald J. Trump as the next President of the United States by use of the ballot box.
Even if it means you might have to be called for jury duty!

No I mean, I understand if some people think Hillary is a bigger threat to the country than Russia (even if I honestly think they're wrong, that's not an issue for me, it's realistic God damnit).

But Lucifer?! :blink:

Tbf, I would rate both Hillary and Trump as a greater threat than Russia.

Well, you see, Bill did basically sell his soul. Lucifer is just collecting via Hillary's marriage.

This isn't even a joke, either.

The state of mental health care in this country is appalling.

Trump is just a "greater threat than Russia" with "possibly helping Russia, intentionally or not, get more power" on top of it. So he's a bigger threat than Russia while making Russia more powerful.

Plenty of Walmarts out there.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be a pan-Islamic plot and proof of Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of loners who do not represent their belief system at all.
The probability of one's participation in homosexual acts is directly proportional to one's public disdain and disgust for homosexuals.
If a political figure makes an accusation of wrongdoing without evidence, odds are probable that the accuser or an associate thereof has in fact committed the very same act, possibly to a worse degree.

Keep in mind that the primaries are not just the Presidential primary. Their are lower level primary contests still on-going (for example, arch-Bernie enemy and ex DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz's primary is... August 20th. I think).

So this could be a place to discuss lower level primaries, if one cares to do so.
"Our progress in degeneracy appears to me to be pretty rapid. As a nation, we began by declaring that "all men are created equal." We now practically read it "all men are created equal, except negroes" When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read "all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and Catholics." When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretence of loving liberty -- to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocracy." - President Abraham Lincoln.

And there is still potentially a fair bit to discuss regarding the Presidential primaries, even if they're over... I don't really know if Congressional (or any non-Presidential) primaries really fit here, though.

I do find it weird that this one is still open but the other one got shut down as soon as the convention ended.

And down ballot stuff can be discussed in the, well...down ballot thread.
