Trump

Did Jill Stein (voters) throw the election to Trump?

Submitted by Bisbonian on Wed, 11/09/2016 - 8:05pm

For the Mathematically and/or Integrity Challenged:

Jill Stein (and her voters) are being blamed for causing Hillary Clinton to lose to Trump. Lets see if that is even possible. I used data from the Politico website...there are probably variations in the "official" vote total at this point, and if you manage to find one that is enough different from this one to make a difference, then I would like to see it. For now, I have gone through every state via the Politico website, and these are the results I found.

One More Simpsons Prediction Comes True (Make that 2, actually)

So last night, Trumpy Boy won the presidency via the electoral college (Clinton barely won the popular vote, but that didn't stop certain folks from blaming already marginalized 3rd party voters for the loss). I'd like to thank The Simpsons for predicting yet another clusterfuck in world events.

First the tragedy, then the farce

Submitted by ngant17 on Wed, 11/09/2016 - 8:07am

if history repeats itself, as Karl Marx once suggested, first as a tragedy and the second time as a farce, there is nothing to laugh about.

I'm operating on the assumption that Trump will be strive to act out as the reincarnated Raygun. "Make America great again." Right out of a Raygun playbook: "...It's morning again in America, and under the leadership of President Reagan, our country is prouder and stronger and better."

We need a new campaign. Convince Donald.

One of the smartest thinks Trump could do is to hire Bernie in some advisory capacity. The fear we should all have is that Trump is going to be surrounded by Republican operatives. Let's start a campaign that brings Trump back to his democratic days.

Seriously. We need to move immediately to bring more liberal voices into his government. We need to stress this over at ToP etc. It is the only thing we can do.

Trump's casino bankruptcy case still helps shield Wall St from fraud cases today.

David Sirota over at IBT has been doing some amazing investigative work this cycle (some of it focused on Democrats). Along with Avi Ascher-Schapiro, he has an article today about a court case from the 1990s: How Donald Trump Used Fine Print To Make It Harder To Sue Wall Street For Fraud
