    Not surprised ratings are down. People would rather follow comedic jokes about it on Twitter. The only way I'd watch either convention is for the Rifftrax guys to cover it.

    I work late hours so I couldn't watch anyways.

    Doesn't you really think that's why they aren't watching? I would guess it's because people are disgusted with the direction the party has turned.

    Anyone disagree with any of the points? And please spare the rhetoric of credible news source and Michael Moore is an idiot stuff.
    Why are these pointed reasons wrong?

    Yeah, they are all based on his feelings, not empirical data. Let's start with the fact that women are much more reliable as voters than men. So if you have to get 7 out of 10 that are ALIVE, let alone registered, then that's a tough climb to start.

    Second, his first point says ""All he has to do is win those four states." Wow. That's fucking deep right there. I mean what a political genius to pull this one out. So how does he win those states? What does his ground game look like? How deeply is he staffed for the phones and the pavement campaign?
    And this is where the math comes in. In 2012, Mitt Romney lost by 64 electoral votes. Add up the electoral votes cast by Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. It’s 64.
    All Trump needs to do to win is to carry, as he’s expected to do, the swath of traditional red states from Idaho to Georgia (states that’ll never vote for Hillary Clinton), and then he just needs these four rust belt states.
    He doesn’t need Florida. He doesn’t need Colorado or Virginia. Just Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. And that will put him over the top.

    Big times article about how he has basically no path to victory without Florida. One scenario where he loses Florida and wins the election.

    Please stop with the pictures. Seriously. It's incredibly annoying and adds no value whatsoever.

    http://www.rawstory.com/2016/07/a-third-woman-alleges-she-was-sexually-assaulted-by-donald-trump/
    Wednesday, in the midst of the Republican National Convention, new allegations emerged of sexual assault committed by Donald Trump. This is the third woman who has accused the GOP presidential nominee of sexual assault.

    The latest allegations of unwanted sexual contact by Trump come from Jill Harth, a makeup artist and business associate of the billionaire in the early 1990s. According to Harth, Trump sexually harassed her on numerous occasions, including cornering her in his daughter Ivanka’s bedroom and attempting to have sex with her. In 1997, Harth filed a lawsuit detailing Trump’s alleged repeated efforts to force her to have sex with him, as well as a number of other outrageous and inappropriate behaviors.

    Harth, who gave an interview to the Guardian earlier this week, says she first met Trump back in 1992, when she and her business partner and then boyfriend George Houraney were trying to recruit Trump as a partner in their beauty pageant event. The New York Times cites a 1996 deposition in which Harth describes their first meeting with Trump, when Houraney gave a business presentation to woo Trump into becoming a financial backer of the project. According to Harth, that marked the first of Trump’s many unwanted sexual advances.

    "Hillary Clinton I think is a terrific woman,” he told Greta Van Susteren. “I am biased because I have known her for years. I live in New York. She lives in New York. I really like her and her husband both a lot. I think she really works hard. And I think, again, she’s given an agenda, it is not all of her, but I think she really works hard and I think she does a good job. I like her."

    Mr Trump said: "You know why? It's their own fault because they allowed people to come into their territory.

    "We have to have tough, we're going to have, tough standards. If a person can't prove what they have to be able to prove they’re not coming into this country."

    He added: "That's why Brexit happened OK? Because the UK is saying 'We're tired of this stuff, what's going on? We're tired of it.'

    I was hoping Chuck Todd would've asked him what he knows, specifically, about the current vetting process because I'm sure he has absolutely no idea. The way he talks, you'd think there is no vetting process what so ever. He's an idiot preying on people's fears.

    It's humorous to me that Trump thinks he has a clue as to why brexit occurred. It really didn't have anything to do with Britain "wanting their borders back."

    "The shortest answer is the Great Recession and austerity policies of EU policymakers. What austerity policies? In the UK’s case, it was raising taxes in 2010 while cutting government spending in an attempt to pay down debt incurred during and by the Great Recession of 2008-09. But in doing so it has kept the UK close to recession level growth ever since 2008."

    That is one reason yes but
    http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-32810887
    Prime Minister Theresa May has said one of the main messages she has taken from the Leave vote is that the British people want to see a reduction in immigration.

    She has said this will be a focus of Brexit negotiations. The key issue is whether other EU nations will grant the UK access to the single market, if that is what it wants, while at the same time being allowed to restrict the rights of EU citizens to live and work in the UK
    .

    Tougher border enforcement via vetting will reduce immigration for their now singular country.
    Trump just says it differently.

    By the way anyone reading this thread it is an article is worth reading whether you are a Trump supporter or not. It gives a concise unbiased report about what BREXIT is and how it happened.

    It truly is astounding how far Hillary apologists will go to exclude people not in their circle in order to create a nice comfortable bubble.
    One that could pop at anytime by a unicorn mind you but nonetheless a bubble.
    Why do you not like Trump supporters?
