    I don't see how Trump can thread that same needle considering nobody will be as unpopular as Clinton and that Trump will no longer get the benefit of the doubt.

    Ok Cohen talked... hmm...

    So how can Trump both not want to win a presidential election and collude with Russia to win an election?

    Trump won Wisconsin by 23,000 voted and voted for Obama twice.

    Ohio is much different than Ohio which has been trending red.

    i don't really see Harris being nominated because of the midwest .

    Trump can lose Michigan and Pennsylvania and still win with 270 electoral votes if he holds everything else he won in 2016.

    Wisconsin is the new bellwether for liberal candidates.

    If you nominate someone that doesn't energize Midwestern liberals, you have already lost.

    Hillary was a giant wet fart all across the rust belt. They can't repeat that.

    I think Warren carries some hardcore working class credibility in the Midwest.

    It will be interesting to see how that works out for her.

    "Go back to China or whereever you're from"

    "Go back to Kenya or whereever you're from"

    "Go back to Mexico or whereever you're from"

    How the F is that not racist? Meadows seems like a f***ing racist.

    Racist people HATE being called racist. Have you noticed, racist people, out of all people, absolutely hate being called racist the most? Meadows, Sessions, etc

    It seems to bother them the most. If you called me a racist, I wouldn't give a f***. Non-racist people don't really care when you call them racist. Racist people do. Hence, Meadows' reaction to Tlaib. LOL

    i think he is more likely to lose more eyes than he did he in 2016 than hold everything else.

    And I don't think he can lose Pennsylvania and Michigan and still win.

    Wait, so you think he didn’t want to win? Why was he even running then?

    The conventional thought was that he didn’t expect to win (and that his campaign was more about marketing for him than anything). IOW, he didn’t care if he lost the election (since he already won marketing himself). His campaign manager even got mad at him for not caring and saying, paraphrasing, ‘it’s okay if we lose’.

    Maybe you don't care, but I think most people, racist or not, don't like being called a racist. It is an attack on their legitimacy to speak.

    Meadows is a ****ing racist. Exhibit A: Obama should "Go back to Kenya or whereever".

    Meadows hates being called a racist. Exhibit B: Meadows reaction to Tlaib.

    Racists hate being called racist. Even if they have black nieces and nephews. LOL

    The collusions came to him at no cost, much less than paying off the women. They appeared to be free, dirty and funny. A gentleman like Trump cannot resist it.
