I don't agree with that statement...die hard Trumpers are only between 10-12% of the voting population. The real problem is that the Republican Party has been so fucktarded since 2010 and pushing so hard right that they lost their goddamn base and nobody noticed. Trump won the primary with "record numbers" because all the crazies came out and no one wanted to show up for Bush, Rubio, Cruz, etc. etc.

Yup this is true... and part of the reason why is because they are so bloody intolerant. They cant even tolerate themselves. They cant even tolerate their own candidates. They hated McCain and Romney too.

- I remember the GOP used to be nicknamed "The big tent party" - meaning they allowed lots of ideas and philosophies. Now they are the "This is my tent, get those brown people out of my tent, also get your non-Christians out too. Also, get anyone that sympathizes with brown people or Non-Christians out, you are just as bad" tent party.

I do agree, primarily his primary voters are the lowest rung of the IQ ladder.
- "I like him, he talks straight so I can understand it" was a common theme. Yeah, because you are dumb and he is talking to you like you are dumb.
"He says exactly what he means!"
"If Hillary wins, I hope someone shoots her."
"He didn't mean that."

Republicans shot themselves trying to use "Hoorah hoorah GOP!" tactics to attack Trump, and now Trump is shooting himself every time he says something. I'm sad about Trump's performance right now in the way I would be sad if Mr. Magoo was suddenly hit by a car and died halfway through an episode.

Yup, it still begs the same question of republican primary voters. What were they thinking? I mean that seriously, like what did they think Trump was going to look like as a serious contender for the highest office on Earth? Did they think he was going to suddenly look like a mature adult with leadership skills? How many "celebrity feuds" does someone need to go through before people see the problem isnt everyone else's. It's the one getting into fights with everyone else.



Sorry, "begging the question" doesn't mean what you think it does.

I am not sure how Trump getting record number of primary votes in this election squares with your claim.

Jill Stein 20%
Gary Johnson 10%



Geez, kid, could you at least link a satire site that actually has a grasp of English? As an example:

we would like to firstly apologize for the misplacing poll we have created where we forgot to include the two third party candidates

That's worse than what spews out of Trump's mouth on a daily basis, and that's saying something.

NBC doesn't host "real polls"?

Are you thinking of NBCnews.com? Either way, no. An online poll is nothing. A single poll is nothing. The only poll to look at is RCP, because they are not a pollster. They just monitor all of the legit polls (one of them is nbcnews, not nbcpolls) and average them out. They have been spot on, for many many election cycles.
- Nice try though. If you want to pretend Trump will win by a landslide because an "nbcpolls.com" online poll (that drastically disagrees with every single legit poll source) says so, go right ahead. Enjoy yourself.

Online poll sounds pretty accurate. I bet Boaty McBoatface would be in the lead if he/she was listed on the site.
I just noticed that's not NBC news either....

NBC Poll : Did Bernie Sanders made you Proud ?

Bernie Sanders on Tuesday expressed his appreciation for people across the country who supported his presidential campaign. “I cannot say with words...

I bet this is either a pro trump site or a pro Russia site spreading FUD.

Clearly you have no understanding of the science behind polling.

Oh, do tell us Mr. Polling science about how scientific polls are so scientific and how so many of them were wrong this past year on both Trump and Bernie Sanders because of...ummm...some science thing or something, right?

Well to start with, it helps if your sample is randomized. That is basic statistics.

It also helps if its not a bullshit propaganda site and that the "votes" actually mean something. I clicked thru with two different browsers and the goal number of votes never changed.

You can keep voting on that site. It's pure BS.

Folks, are you really going to waste time convincing BartSimpson that his online poll from some junk website showing Trump winning in a landslide shouldn't be taken seriously? Let reality slap him in the face come November, and enjoy him pointing to that online poll as proof that the election was rigged. The stupidity is truly something to behold, albeit a bit frightening.
