I would hope they don't ask her as well.. but if you are going to open up one candidates adult kids to those questions.. why is the other candidates adult kid off limits for potentially embarrassing questions?

if the kids are adults and willingly put themselves out there in front of the media, then everything is free game.

that's why i don't understand why Palin's daughter whines so much.

Maybe she whines because she sees the trap/embarrassing questions asked of republican kids and the softballs thrown up for democrats kids...

Maybe.

The more likely reason is that she makes money preaching to kids about abstinence, but the media grills her after having two kids by two different guys out of wedlock.

so far, I haven't seen any of the other kids from Bush, Romney, McCain, Obama, and Clinton run into that problem yet.

But the night is still young so.

Why is that disgraceful?

Someone at PPP decided to do a poll and ask dumb questions and people responded.

Does this poll mean anything? No I don't think so. Is it funny? Hell yes it's funny. Come on, Lighten up.

Her daughter shouldn't be protected if she wants to be in the public eye. If she wants fame and attention, it should come with scruitny.

I think it's more appropriate for a publication like The Onion.

Less popular than bedbugs?

It IS funny... but hardly serious journalism...

Trump has everybody moon walking lmfao

Rush Limbaugh battles with caller in tense exchange over Donald Trump's immigration waffling

https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/rush-limbaugh-battles-caller-tense-152537471.html


Rush Limbaugh said Monday that he never took Donald Trump "seriously" when he said he would deport millions of people residing in the US illegally.

The remarks from the king of conservative talk radio came when a Los Angeles caller identified as Rick confronted him about Trump's waffling on the issue. In recent days, the Republican nominee has appeared to back off his initial calls for mass deportation.

"I just distinctly heard you say it's not considered a flip-flop," the caller said. "And I just want to tell you that you are doing a disservice to all of us Republican primary voters who didn't vote for Trump, that are struggling whether or not to vote for Trump."

The caller continued:

"When you diminish the impact of his single policy that he ridiculed all other candidates for over a year. I mean, John Kasich classically said on the debate stage — he laughingly said, 'C'mon folks. This isn't serious. He's not going to deport everyone.' And Trump went ahead and ridiculed anyone who wasn't for deportation.

"And for all of us who were saying it was a con job, it was a snow job, he doesn't know what he's talking about, that he's unqualified to be president — for you to sit here and say now that he adopts all the positions of everybody he ridiculed as not even being a flip-flop and it's no big deal? This is why so many Republican voters have such a hard time going to the con man."

Limbaugh told the caller that he didn't believe "Trump has actually changed that much from what he said," but the caller wasn't having it:

"With all due respect, Rush, on Chuck Todd's show, he specifically said, when asked the question 'You mean you're going to rip the families apart?' [Trump] said, 'No, I'm not going to rip the families apart. They all have to go, even the US citizen children.'

"He then got in the middle of the debate and the argument between Marco [Rubio] and Ted [Cruz]. When Ted wanted legalization and Marco wanted citizenship as part of a comprehensive plan, he said they were both wrong, and they were both being absurd, and they all have to go or we don't have a nation of laws. C'mon! You were watching the debate as well as the rest of us were! You know exactly what he said, and you know exactly the way he ridiculed everyone on that stage!"

Limbaugh then said something he admitted would likely "enrage" the caller.

"I never took him seriously on this!" Limbaugh said.

"But 30 million or 15 or 10 million people did," the caller said.

"Yeah, and they still don't care," Limbaugh replied. "That my point — they still don't care! They're going to stick with him no matter what."

The caller continued to go after Limbaugh.

"This is why Trump is going to get annihilated," he said. "Because nobody called him out early on about his absurd policies."

Limbaugh argued that each of the Republican candidates "called him out."

The caller replied by noting that "unfortunately, the No. 1 place where Republican primary voters get their news" failed to do so.

"Oh no! It's on me!" Limbaugh exclaimed before cutting to a break.

It's real househusbands of the GOP!!! New season!!! Stream it on Netflix!!!

DONALD TRUMP’S NEW CAMPAIGN C.E.O. RECORDED USING ANTI-GAY SLUR

http://www.vanityfair.com/news/2016/08/donald-trump-stephen-bannon-controversy

Donald Trump has cycled through a series of campaign leaders, each brought on to remedy the Republican nominee’s head-spinning presidential bid, but each turning into a headache himself. The latest campaign savior turned liability is former Breitbart News executive Stephen Bannon, who Trump named his campaign C.E.O. earlier this month. The campaign shake-up, which included the elevation of G.O.P. pollster Kellyanne Conway to campaign manager, was at the time seen as both a slight and solution to Paul Manafort, Trump’s former campaign chairman, who was drawing unwanted attention over his controversial business ties to Russia and Ukraine. But in the two weeks since Bannon took the helm, Trump’s campaign has been rocked by a string of allegations against the media firebrand, including a decades-old domestic-abuse charge. And the bad press isn’t stopping.

The latest of Bannon’s past transgressions to come to light is a comment he made in a five-year-old interview, in which he calls progressive women “dykes.” In a 2011 radio interview with Political Vindication Radio, Bannon said that conservative women—such as Ann Coulter, Michele Bachmann, and Sarah Palin—are an “existential threat to the progressive narrative” and as a result “there are some unintended consequences of the women’s liberation movement. That, in fact, the women that would lead this country would be pro-family, they would have husbands, they would love their children,” he said, as BuzzFeed News first reported. “They wouldn’t be a bunch of dykes that came from the Seven Sisters schools up in New England. That drives the left insane and that’s why they hate these women,” Bannon continued.

The newly surfaced remark by Trump’s campaign C.E.O. is just one of several past controversial comments that have recently surfaced. Days before BuzzFeed News published the 2011 radio recording, the outlet reported that Bannon’s ex-wife had accused him of making anti-Semitic comments, citing court filings from the estranged couple’s divorce proceedings. “He said that he doesn’t like Jews and that he doesn’t like the way they raise their kids to be ‘whiny brats’ and that he didn’t want the girls to go to school with Jews,” Bannon’s ex-wife, Mary Louise Piccard, reportedly claimed in the filings. (A spokesperson for Bannon told BuzzFeed that he never made the comments.) Earlier, Politico published a police report filed against the former media executive, wherein his then wife, Piccard, detailed an alleged domestic-violence incident in which she claimed Bannon grabbed her neck and broke her phone. Bannon was charged with battery, dissuading a witness, and misdemeanor domestic violence in 1996, but the charges against him were dropped when Piccard didn’t show up in court, Politico reports. (A spokesperson told Politico that Bannon pleaded not guilty to the charges and was never interviewed by the police.)


As Bannon’s past has come back to haunt him, the Trump campaign has begun to distance itself from the chief executive. When asked about Bannon and his connections to the controversial “alt-right” movement in an interview on Fox News Sunday this past weekend, Conway remarked that Trump “chose me to manage his campaign, and I report directly to him.” Chairman of the Republican National Committee Reince Priebus evinced a similar ambivalence toward Bannon in an interview with NBC’s Meet the Press. “I think Kellyanne is doing a phenomenal job. I don’t know Steve Bannon, to tell you the truth, very well,” he said when asked about personnel issues within the Trump campaign. If Bannon’s troubles continue, he, like his predecessors Manafort and Corey Lewandowski, might not last long on the Trump campaign.

I don't think it matters anymore. I think people are just kinda numb to things Trump says or his people say / do. Dude could show up to a rally with a white hood on and people would still vote for him.

Yep. He already said that he could shoot somebody and still have votes.

He could walk across the surface of Lake Erie wearing a white robe and sandals, and I STILL wouldn't vote for him.

At the XFinity Arena in Everett, Washington on 8-30-2016, 13,000 tickets have been distributed for an arena that can only hold 10,000 people indicating yet another massive rally even in heavily democrat-leaning Washington state. Go 'Trump 2016'.

Trump sets record attendance. Man, look at those lines!

If Kasich was running I would be leading the charge to get Hillary elected.

Eww.

That smells worse than one of your farts.

Man you really hate that dude, bro.

I'm not fond of a person who sticks it to the elderly, disabled folks, mentally challenged individuals, while steeling money from people's retirement accounts, and is proud of it. I think used toilet paper has more worth than Kasich.

My wife works in the mental health field. I couldn't agree with you more.

Swish, feel free to disagree. I was looking at the 2012 map. I think Trump wins Ohio and Iowa. However, I think there's a very real threat he would lose Florida (Romney won Florida). Everything else stays the same.

The major blue states Cali, New York, Pennsylvania, and Illinois will stay blue. I think Wisconsin, Michigan, and Minnesota stay blue.

you think Penn is staying blue? I have a feeling Trump is taking that state.

if Trump loses Florida, ugh.

The state i'm interested is Texas.

Word on the street is Trump might not take Texas. that would be catastrophic.

that would be amazing, but I'm not buying it. He's got a 10-point lead in the polls here. We'll see how this meeting with Mexican government goes.

yea i just saw the news about him heading down there.

i didn't know the lead was that big. i thought he had a slight edge. thanks for keeping me posted on that bro.

Just a general question:

With Trump heading off to Mexico .... what happens if he comes back with some sort of statement by the Mexican President that they will work with the US on the wall if Trump wins?

Pigs would get wings.

Then that would legitimize his original immigration policy, thus probably catapulting him to a nice lead over Clinton heading into the debates.

It's unlikely, but anything is possible.

I just started thinking about what kind of things could potentially lift Trump by significant numbers ..... and this crazy scenario popped into my head.

full disclosure tohugh, this is really the only resource I use.

Well, actually reaching out to the NAACP and doing rallies with a lot of black people present would also help. Same with Latinos. That would help boost his numbers with minorities

I think even you would understand that addressing black issues to a sea of white people at a rally isn't exactly sending the intended message.

Happening everywhere he goes. Very similar situation in Erie PA. Lines stretched for several blocks.

Cleveland did win a Championship ...

MSNBC likes to consider themselves a professional news organization, that's why. Things like this should be left to Samantha B or John Oliver..

Serious question bro.. short of just adopting the DNC platform, what could a republican actually do to make a dent in the support the black community gives to the democrats?

I mean, it's straight out of the democrats playbook:

1. Find out who the republicans are going to nominate, paint that person as an elitest racist.

Granted, with Trump that was pretty damn easy.. but they do it to every single candidate and a HUGE number of people just buy off on it. DNC says they are a racist.. voting democrat again. Okie dokie.

1. One easy fix, stop over glorifying law enforcement. Make SOME type of concession. I'm not saying to place blame on law enforcement, but state there needs to be changes in training. Also, stop endorsing turd balls like Sheriff David Clarke who's doing nothing but trying to further instigate violence. Cops are not pigs, but they are overly romanticized.

2. Stop painting blacks as helpless welfare leeches who live in ghettos. There is a HUGE amount of accomplished black people in this country. They're probably pissed at the images associated with their race.

3. Do what Trump is doing, but be genuine about it. Admit that RNC has been negligent in listening to black people in the past.

Those are the easy steps. If you REALLY want to sway them, say you'll end the war on drugs and stop imprisoning non-violent drug offenders.

Interesting.

So, Trump says something, and he gets railed on for it. When Hillary said basically the same thing a few years ago, it was good? Or do Clinton supporters just ignore it?

Or, when Clinton flip flops, it's a good thing, but if Trump did, it's a bad thing.

Someone help me out.

I would love to know the answer myself.

Hillary is conservative at heart. It's why her base reluctantly votes for her. Who on this site is a die-hard Hillary supporter? The problem is that Trump flip flops just like she does. He does the same things you blast Hillary for daily.

A crooked politician vs a crooked buisness man.

Does this guy actually have a following? This is worse than Rush Limbaughs rant about democrats using Lesbian farmers to try to install liberal values into farmers.

I'd say there are a fair amount.



Nah, I don't think so. He just gets called on it. She has flipped and flopped on everything she has ever said.....or didn't say, or said but didn't mean to say.



A lifelong crooked politician that lies to your face, daily, (IF she's speaking), lies to the FBI, lies to the public, and when caught in a lie, she lies again. And again. And again.

And we all know she's not running for president for the country, she's running for herself.

And people buy into it.

Like she has some moral ground with blacks? You know, the "super predators" of this country? (her words, not mine)

Another 30 e-mails she deleted (of the 30,000), so far, have shown to be about Benghazi. Not wedding plans, not yoga.

She was e-mailing classified info even AFTER she wasn't S.O.S.

And yet, people support her?
