Vox Populi – 10-14-2016

Que pasa, Ad?

KillgoreTrout

Hey glenn!

KillgoreTrout

Good evening, Ad, KT, How are you?

glenn

B!

KillgoreTrout

Hey Beatlex–are the people in Canada just shaking their heads at our stupid republicans?

glenn

I’m doing well, and you?

KillgoreTrout

Doing well, also.

glenn

glad to hear it.

KillgoreTrout

Trump is melting!

KillgoreTrout

C’mon.The media(and the rest of us sentient beings) knew that Trump is a pig.Surely this could have come out earlier?

Beatlex

So what’s your favorite excuse from the trump supporters? Mine is that Hillary should be ahead by more than 40% because she is the first woman candidate for president.

glenn

yeah I posted that in Time Out! Isn’t that a great cover?

KillgoreTrout

gotta protect those precious bodily fluids, Ad!

KillgoreTrout

Is this last debate going to a real circus or what? How crazy is Trump going to get by election day?

KillgoreTrout

That is the best cover! I also liked the one from a publication in England that shows trump’s profile as the elephant’s ass.

glenn

Ad–I think the Mexicans were also part of that conspiracy.

glenn

Yep, that’s Trump alright. He said he was going “nuclear.”

KillgoreTrout

Well…now that he’s “unshackled”.

glenn

Trump knows he’s toast. He’s just keeping his base riled up so they’ll watch his new network.

KillgoreTrout

Django Trump!

KillgoreTrout

KT–think trump will actually attend the last debate? He did call the debate commission all kinds of names, and say he was “done”.

glenn

Hey Harleigh

glenn

Did he? I hadn’t heard that.

KillgoreTrout

HIllary better wear a kevlar pantsuit.

KillgoreTrout

hey gang…. did Pence ever come up with his bigly bullshit that he promised this morning??

Harleigh

sup, Harleigh?

KillgoreTrout

Ad–so you think he will actually attend it? Who do you think he’ll put in the audience this time?

glenn

KT–good one!

glenn

same ol KT

Harleigh

Harleigh–don’t think so; haven’t seen anything.

glenn

Same here. doing well. Enjoying the disintegration of the GOP!

KillgoreTrout

Trump has studied his Adolph well.

KillgoreTrout

Ad–Not sure if I want to watch it live or not. Don’t know if my tv would survive it!

glenn

Good afternoon and Grope!

pinkpantheroz

Hey PPO–Fergie still doing better?

glenn

Hey P? Grabbed any lately?

KillgoreTrout

Hi, KT. Yes, saw the doc yesterday and she’s doing fine. Off almost all the pain medication ( dammit!).

pinkpantheroz

That’s great P!

KillgoreTrout

I’m not sure he was specific it was on one of the morning shows….

Harleigh

PPO–Yea! So good to hear!

glenn

thanks glenn, ad.

pinkpantheroz

just catching up on the latest insanity

pinkpantheroz

Ad–If Hillary wins TX, it’s all over! She’s also ahead in FL, I think.

glenn

Hillary has some big guns on her side, campaigning for her. Trump has pea shooters.

KillgoreTrout

If there is, I have no idea what that would be. I think more women will come forward, just like they did for Cosby.

KillgoreTrout

Ad–pence promised to show “evidence to refute trump accusers.”

glenn

Ad–more women accuse Bill of assault?

glenn

who is this pommy bastard trying to smear the lady on the airplane? Nutzo de Luxe!

pinkpantheroz

TRump seems to be getting away with his excuses, among his female supporters, but if even more women come forward, he’s completely finished, if he isn’t already.

KillgoreTrout

bros for hos!

KillgoreTrout

KT, those female supporters must be the masochistiic types who marry condemned prisoners.

pinkpantheroz

brb

pinkpantheroz

Pretty damned close P. They actually believe these women are just part of a conspiracy by Hillary, to “steal the election.” God they’re stupid.

KillgoreTrout

KT–trump is only getting away with his excuses among his die-hard supporters. They have already admitted several times on camera to different shows, among them The Daily Show, that there’s NOTHING that trump could do that would stop them from voting for trump. Independents and sane republicans (if there are any left), though, will not vote for trump. They may not vote for Hillary, but they definitely won’t vote for trump.

glenn

So….what date do we put on the death certificate of the GOP? LOL! What a bunch of maroons! They could have stopped him,but they are cowards

Beatlex

This groping thing is going to have more accusers than Ailes had at faux over Gretchen carlson and that was over 20

Harleigh

exactly B! They’ve chained themselves to a dead hooker, and the body is really starting to stink!

KillgoreTrout

Ad–don’t know what the “evidence” is; as far as I know he hasn’t produced it yet. But, yes, he did say that he believed trump when he says he didn’t commit assault, so there’s that “evidence” too.

glenn

LOL! Good one KT!

Beatlex

Beatlex–to make it official, I think the date on the death certificate should be Nov. 9, 2016, when trump loses BIGLY!

glenn

dead skunk in the middle of the road… dead skunk…. I think it was by arlo guthrie.

Harleigh

Harleigh – the Hubba hubba song!

pinkpantheroz

smear some jelly on Trump, he’s toast!

KillgoreTrout

KT–orange marmalade would do nicely, I think!

glenn

Perfect!

KillgoreTrout

OZ,what is the skuttle butt about this election down under?

Beatlex

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhKGTRtgstk

pinkpantheroz

USA = fuckin nutz! LOL

Harleigh

oh for sure. His implication was that if she were better looking, he’d have no problem with molesting her. He’s such an idiot.

KillgoreTrout

brb

Harleigh

Hareigh, like the late great George Carlin once said, “When you’re born, you’re given a ticket to the freak show. When you’re born in America, you get a front row seat.”

KillgoreTrout

Check out the Australian ABC’s weekly election show ‘Planet America. Hilarious and incisive views

pinkpantheroz

Ad–trump also has said, after stalking Hillary on the debate stage, that he wasn’t “impressed”, meaning with her ass, I guess. So, I guess if he had been “impressed”, he would have groped her on stage?

glenn

Bubble Boy Trump.He has been a pig and diddler his whole adult life.Alas,he has wilted under the glaring hot light of a presidential run

Beatlex

How much is the Trump brand worth now, I wonder?

pinkpantheroz

Poor widdle trumplethinskin. That thin skin can’t stand bright lights!

glenn

I hear they had to greatly reduce rates at his new hotel.

KillgoreTrout

glenn!

pinkpantheroz

TRump’s image doesn’t show up in mirrors!

KillgoreTrout

“Trumplethinskin” LOL Glenn!

Beatlex

KT–was just going to tell PPO the same thing. That’s the same hotel he used for the “infomercial” with saying President Obama is a citizen, period.

glenn

KT, thanks for the reminder – must get some garlic for the weekend!

pinkpantheroz

And some sharpened wooden stakes. Hey, Trump Stakes!

KillgoreTrout

Ooooooh! Good ones

pinkpantheroz

Beatlex–thanks. Wish I had come up with it; I saw it on another site, and “borrowed” it.

glenn

I have been watching a lot of Nature shows lately.I can only take so much presidential run news at a time.It is white noise to me at this point

Beatlex

The president and First Lay are killin it in Ohio! They really whittle Trump down to a tiny nub, which he is.

KillgoreTrout

When trump said he wouldn’t want to be in a foxhole with ryan and mccain, Seth Myers said no one would want to be in a foxhole with trump because it would have “TRUMP” in gold letters above it! Priceless!

glenn

Maybe not a majority, but definitely a few more seats.

KillgoreTrout

Myers is underrated I think. He’s been killing Trump now for weeks.

KillgoreTrout

glenn, of course someone else would have dug it, but he would take the credit and it’d be the best foxhole ever

pinkpantheroz

she might!

KillgoreTrout

KT–I agree. His “Closer Look” segments are great!

glenn

Sean Hannity is a FOX hole.

KillgoreTrout

KR, Ad, imagine TWO Presidencies back to back with women POTI.

pinkpantheroz

Sorry, KT

pinkpantheroz

PPO–Yup. As President Obama said in his speech, someone else builds it, trump slaps his name on it, and takes credit.

glenn

Meanwhile,back at the ranch,news of Hillary’s e-mails is lost in the blizzard of the Trump dump

Beatlex

beatlex, that’s the right place for a non-controversy.

pinkpantheroz

Ad–someone said, talking about Michelle, “FLOTUS for POTUS”. Then I got to thinking that’s exactly what we have now.

glenn

Hillary will be really well rested for the last debate. Trump’s going to look like Bill the Cat! Aaaaackkkk!

KillgoreTrout

Beatlex–another reason those emails aren’t making the news is that there’s nothing in them. Not newsworthy, especially with all of the trumplethinskin’s newest and latest.

glenn

Er, Donald, how’s that ‘trottin’ out Bills naughtiness’ doin’?

pinkpantheroz

I had a great idea about how to confuse the TRump poll watchers. Have everybody wear trump shirts and Make America great Again, ball caps!

KillgoreTrout

Really P. That was the dumbest possible thing Trump could have done. What a sleaze merchant.

KillgoreTrout

Good idea, KT. And misspell it TROMP and make america GRATE again

pinkpantheroz

PPO–A lot of news anchors are going after the trump spokespersons who insist that the women accusing trump are lying, but the ones accusing Clinton are telling the truth. Double standard hypocrisy much? Plus Juanita Broddrick, the one who accused him of rape, recanted that story in a sworn deposition. Now that the trump campaign has paid her, it’s rape again.

glenn

I don’t trust wikileaks one bit. Assange is a fugitve accused rapist, under the wing of Vladimir Putin. Yeah, that’s a guy I’m going to believe! NOT!

KillgoreTrout

KT–the trump poll watchers are never going to show up at those “certain” polling places. After all, according to trump, they’re all “disasters” and “hell holes”.

glenn

The historians will be talking about this one for a long time.A study of how the R’s morphed into the whigs(I hope)

Beatlex

oh I think some are stupid enough to try it.

KillgoreTrout

I think Assange is Trump’s love child. Check out his likeness to Uday and Qusay!

pinkpantheroz

they’re all IN “disasters” and “hell holes.”

glenn

The party of Lincoln is now the party of Ron Jeremy!

KillgoreTrout

I think anybody undecided at this point is a frickin moron.

KillgoreTrout

KT-ROTFLMFAo!!

Beatlex

Running out of steam here, so I’m going to go now. Nice chatting with you all. Take care, and I’ll see you in two weeks. Won’t be here next week.

glenn

cheers, g. stay safe.

pinkpantheroz

bYE GLENN!

Beatlex

Take care glenn. Don’t get groped!

KillgoreTrout

Now, having spread panic among the mob, I’ll wend my way to the supermarket for the vittles. See you all in a few days.

pinkpantheroz

There may be a violent incident or two, but they’ll be suppressed so fast, their heads will spin. I just hope there aren’t any Tim McVeighs among them.

KillgoreTrout

They are now!

KillgoreTrout

I’ll be there, ad! Byeeee

pinkpantheroz

Bye Oz

Beatlex

Take care P. Tell Fergie we said hey!

KillgoreTrout

I’ll just be glad to not have to see Trump’s stupid face all the time.

KillgoreTrout

I wouldn’t be surprised if Homeland Security and the FBI are watching some of these “Alphas.” They know exactly how to deal with “Alphas.”

KillgoreTrout

We’ll hear about him probably for a business week after he gets creamed at the polls, but hopefully he’ll be old news after that.

KillgoreTrout

Gee, what will the MSM do without their favorite meal ticket?

KillgoreTrout

oh for sure. They’re not going away. They’re mad as hell, and after their leader losses, they’ll be apoplectic.

KillgoreTrout

they’ll slither back into near obscurity, where they came from. Most of them are cowards or too old and fat to cause much trouble.

KillgoreTrout

my first thought was “education,” but these yahoos think that is liberal/socialist programming.

KillgoreTrout

That’s what I’m hoping for too. I know a few conservatives that hated Obama, until they needed health care.

KillgoreTrout

Maybe when the political war in the GOP weeds out the crazies, that too will help.

KillgoreTrout

See you another time guys,soldier on,it will be over soon! LOL! Or will it?

Beatlex

Maybe. bUt they’ll have no real organization and will deteriorate.

KillgoreTrout

Later B!

KillgoreTrout

Well, I think I’m out too. The Fearless Vampire KIllers is on TCM. Whcky movie!

KillgoreTrout

one can hope! I know it’s “audacious,” but hey, that’s us.

KillgoreTrout

No one here?

MurphTheSurf3

Anything terrific.

MurphTheSurf3

Your thoughts about this last week in the campaign? I am so bored by it. There is so much more to be said and if Clinton gets in on this run of lady luck then her agenda is more easily dismissed.

MurphTheSurf3

Yes, Trump is cooked but I worry that enough GOP have pulled away to hold the Senate…the House was always a pipedream given jerrymandering.

MurphTheSurf3

Trump/Breitbart Enterprises: Bringing the Real Truth to America to Make It Great Again!

MurphTheSurf3

I have been so busy with the Tammy Duckworth campaign….and it is looking good for her…but I want her to be part of the majority.

MurphTheSurf3

Or will those Repubs be so angry that they are energized to come out in droves.

MurphTheSurf3

But the House will be weakened. Ryan’s only way to hold on to the speakership is to deal with Nancy and Hillary….to be an effective Speaker who isolates the crazies in his own caucus as a way of purging his Party of the Poison.

MurphTheSurf3

I have read that Trump’s GOP attraction is in the mid to high 80’s which is still below the norm but not as far off as I thought it would be.

MurphTheSurf3

Ryan…..could be so weak that he has to have Dem votes to get the speakership…..I wonder if that deal could be done….OR would the GOP be so weak that they cannot elect so the Dems can?

MurphTheSurf3

Trump…full lunatic….have you notice that Christie, Giuliani and Gingrich have all disappeared…

MurphTheSurf3

Ad….true….so what do you see happening with his caucus still 20 percent Tea Party/Liberty Caucus….

MurphTheSurf3

Side note…..I saw Tammy face to face last week at a S. Ill. event….my Lord, is she ever impressive…entire address about veterans’ issues with a veterans’ Q and A following. Pretty hostile crowd at first but she is an army officer who was horribly wounded in action to save other soldiers and she KNOWS veteran issues……at the end she got a standing ovation.

MurphTheSurf3

So if the center does not hold, and the far right does not have the numbers, can Pelosi put together a majority and become a minority leader of the House?

MurphTheSurf3

Trump is definitely gunning for the unhappy right.

MurphTheSurf3

Oh…I think that Tammy has the lead in this…..I am sorry if I was not clear…

MurphTheSurf3

When Tammy debates Kirk he comes off as so weak….he had a bad stroke and I think it has really affected his mentation. She is sharp as a razor blade. But kind.

MurphTheSurf3

I am also hoping that Kander, Koster will be our next Senators and Gov here in Mo.

MurphTheSurf3

Then what does the next house look like?

MurphTheSurf3

She has had several appearances like that.

MurphTheSurf3

CLose…..for both but since it was assumed that Blunt would hold his Senate seat, and that Jay Nixon’s replacement would be GOP….close is good….if things keep sliding they could pull it off.

MurphTheSurf3

Gridlock will be put in the spotlight by Clinton who will aim to turn 2018 into a GOP bloodbath…won’t the GOP want to avoid this?

MurphTheSurf3

I am ALL for a new face for the SCOTUS…that alone would be a very good thing.

MurphTheSurf3

One more thing…what are your thoughts about the Trumpeters reaction to a Trump loss given the message that the election is rigged.

MurphTheSurf3

And one more thing……Pence is coming off as a Puny Putz….so much for the Savior of the ticket.

MurphTheSurf3

And if the new scotus acts quickly the 2018 election would be affected. Yeah!

MurphTheSurf3

I have a neighbor…rabid racist Trump supporter…..he was at the neighborhood bar I have mentioned before a week or so ago and he was raging on about how the REAL AMERICANS are going to rise up if they are robbed of the election. He said he would “be gunning for anyone who was for LIAR HILLARY and her RAPIST HUSBAND.” He went on like that for a while. The bar tender finally told him to leave and he launched into an attack on the bar as a hot bed of left wingers. That made everyone laugh. The laughter drove him from the room. After he left though one our oldest wisest guys said this: “Kidding aside….anyone sees that SOB coming at em after the election with a gun in his hands…shoot first.”

MurphTheSurf3

I agree about Pence but I was surprised that Pence himself has played himself so badly in all of this and that has led to those in the party who spoke well of him to turn away.

MurphTheSurf3

Since the states are left to decide congressional districts by whatever means they legislate…I think not UNLESS the means can be shown to be prejudicial (which they can)- so this will be like a VRA for congressional redistricting.

MurphTheSurf3

Well I will wait for your last responses and then toddle off…I have foolishly volunteered to help with the Kander campaign out here in the boondocks tomorrow early. When will I learn.

MurphTheSurf3

My feeling is that the rest there agreed and that mr.loudmouth will get the word of warning.

MurphTheSurf3

Did you hear that Trumps new luxury Washington DC hotel is having to discount rooms…during Peak Washington Booking Season….the Trump Brand is a souring fast.

MurphTheSurf3

Can’t stand pence…his religious freedom bills sickened me.

MurphTheSurf3

Ad…but the means that is used to gerrymander can lead to fair redistricting too. I don’t think they can universally set it aside. This will be case by case with rulings setting standards for those committees.

MurphTheSurf3

Ad…are there not neighboring states…..volunteer for a phone bank? You can do it from home.

MurphTheSurf3

Yep…and I have read that negotiations have broken down on a dozen hotel branding proposals overseas….

MurphTheSurf3

Agreed…but CA is using a very unusual model….I can’t see Scotus mandating it.

MurphTheSurf3

OH….I just heard your 70 percent number on Chris Hayes (a show I like more and more, the entire evening lineup with the exception of Matthews, is better)

MurphTheSurf3

Ad….involvement is the key and yours sounds like the kind of thing that you would excel at.

MurphTheSurf3

Good thoughts about Trump Media- and we can hope for failure there. We have been going for 45 minutes! Not bad for a chat. SO, goodnight. See you on Wednesday…..I wonder what Hillary’s strategy will be?

MurphTheSurf3

I am going to invite several Yabber folks here on Wednesday, I did last time but no one accepted.

MurphTheSurf3

Can you send me a concise explanation about how my Yabberz friends can join us on Wednesday?

MurphTheSurf3

Nuclear Trump….

MurphTheSurf3

How do they sign up.

MurphTheSurf3

I have forgotten.

MurphTheSurf3

I am thinking of doing a short article and posting it in the private chat section to about a half dozen people…..

MurphTheSurf3

In fact, if you want to offer me the words I will use them directly in my post at Yabberz.

MurphTheSurf3

Do you want to send me a script….I will put my “why I like Vox at Planet POV” recommendation at the front and then plunk in your directions.

MurphTheSurf3

OH and PPPPPPPSSSSSSS…..there are plans afoot for a reunion of Campaign 2008 Obama foot soldiers to mark the end of the Obama presidency…..there is a real sense of loss at work now.

MurphTheSurf3

Got it. Copied it and will use it.

MurphTheSurf3

I think you are correct…..all of the conversation about ending Obama programs has some very worried….including long term GOP.

MurphTheSurf3

Very much the ACA but also VA funding and police funding…I have hear worried moans about all three. For the third time tonight….good night?

MurphTheSurf3

Expect Hillary to jump on the ACA..she gets her chance to do what she could not before.

MurphTheSurf3

And good night.

MurphTheSurf3
