Quote

“We don’t need to be in this divided place. Of course, when Trish Regan says it the mainstream media goes bonkers. Saying it’s ‘insane warning of violence in the streets,'” Regan complained. “The bottom line is we are in a very bad place. Thank you, Adam Schiff, thank you, Nancy Pelosi, thank you The Squad. There is a total lack of tolerance on the left.”

“If we do not respect one another, if we don’t respect our institutions of government, we have no cohesiveness, we have no spirit, we have no economy, we have no country. This is exactly what our enemies want, divide and conquer,” Regan warned. “Adam Schiff, who is apparently a little stuck in his wannabe, Hollywood crime-thriller movie-writer role, is selling America out. For what? For what he thinks is political glory. It’s not going to get him very far. This hostile takeover of the government is not going to succeed. One, because Americans recognize it for what it is.”

Quote

“Adam Schiff can continue to try and write this horror movie, or Americans, we can take our country back. The left’s attempt to dehumanize conservatives, to dehumanize the middle of this country, it is very deliberate,” Regan said, without mentioning one high-profile political figure who has publicly condemned some Republicans as “human scum” for choosing to oppose Trump.

Lack of tolerance of corruption.

They legit triggered.

Cauliflower Of Love · « **Reply #44110 on:** November 13, 2019, 10:18:51 AM »

It means Sanders is at -1 % and Hillary is polling higher than Warren at 10%

benjipwns · « **Reply #44111 on:** November 13, 2019, 10:19:10 AM »

the margin of errors in the second image are not for the results in the first image, it's for a different question in the poll

the Pete, Biden and Warren groups are ~20% of the sample, the Sanders group is 13% of the sample, therefore the Sanders group has a larger margin of error when they're polled on something (in this case who their second choice is), this increase would continue as you move down the poll to the Klobuchar group and so on, although by the time you get to a group that's 3% of a sample the margin of error is borderline nonsense (it could feasibly be 30-35 points for this sample)

here is the full paragraph for that second image:

here's the net favorable ratings:

When's the latest somebody actually entered a national race and did well in the primaries?

We have not really had a candidate enter so late into a race with the resources (or even support) that a Bloomberg or Hillary could muster. Jerry Brown twice entered fairly late in the process but it was more of a shoestring vanity campaign than anything serious. Bob Dole waited until everyone else got in but was always the frontrunner and he also didn't want to participate in many of the events/campaigning so he could focus on his position as Senate Majority Leader.

The modern cycle is quite different though. Ted Kennedy when he challenged Carter launched his campaign in November 1979. Reagan similarly launched his campaign that November. Bill Clinton launched his campaign in October 1991.

Your daily reminder that Nunes grew up on a dairy farm, went to college to study dairy farming, got a goddamned masters degree in dairy farming, ran for congress in a dairy farming district on a platform of dairy farming and then someone handed him the keys to the intelligence committee which has nothing to do with dairy farming

Does any of this really matter? They could get Trump to tweet that he's guilty of everything and he'd do it again in a heartbeat. Republicans would still refuse to say it's an impeachable offence, Moscow Mitch will make sure the senate will refuse to agree to impeach. Ever since Kavanaugh I realized only the evil and corrupt will ever win in this world and nothing matters ever

"Did Obama not send as much aid as President Trump to Ukraine"
Witness "That would be correct"

Democrats:
"Would you say <insert> lied?"
Witness: "I cannot make such a judgment"
"Would you say ORANGE MAN BAD??"
Witness: "I cannot say withou..."
"Would you say ORANGE MAD did something other Presidents didn't?"
Witness: "To the best of my knowledge yes"

Media:
"Will you say Hoax or Witch Hunt if we stand in the doorway and shout?"
Trump: "This is a hoax and a witch hunt"

All Trump needs to do is to keep the clownshow running long enough so he can do a Trump/Kanye rally in 2020.
And then the Democratic party can close up shop.

The Young Turks founder Cenk Uygur filed Wednesday to run for the House seat vacated by former Rep. Katie Hill (D-Calif.), who resigned following a House Ethics Committee investigation into her inappropriate sexual relationships with staffers.

An FEC filing dated Wednesday announces the formation of the "Cenk for Congress" committee, with Uygur listed as the group's treasurer. Uygur addressed the filing on Twitter, writing: "To all reporters: No comment."
