He's about to become a pariah.

He's been a pariah all along. Nobody of any intellect actually likes the man.

It hasn't stopped the GOP from supporting him when it appeared that he had the popular vote.

Now they're stuck with him.

This is not over.
This is over. 1 MILLION + women have answered a single twitter thread about posting their first sexual assault experience.
Twitter has an inconsequential effect on this election.

Have you seen interviews of Trump supporters? They can rationalize ANYTHING.

No. This time is different. We are seeing a Senator and Congressman call for him to quit. And it's only been a late Friday/Sat AM in the US. The weekend is going to be a nightmare for the GOP until the debate is over - and then THAT trainwreck will take over.

For the good of the country, we need to be SURE this is the final nail. Do what you can.

If he's replaced, is the ticket still viable? Things that work against the Republicans here:

1. Replacing the top of the ticket after the nomination is unprecedented for the modern U.S. presidency. So we have no prior data point, as it were.

2. We are effectively three weeks away. Not much time to get your "We've changed/Here is our new guy!" message distributed and soaked into the electorate.

3. Working from a significant deficit. If you were ahead you would have more room to work. But, now your new guy and the new campaign has to be sufficient not only to hold the voters you have, but also bring your wavering voters back, and pull votes off an opponent with a significant lead.

4. Leaving under a cloud of scandal. Leaving for sudden illness, accident or assassination would tend to get more sympathy, an support our American desire to let the new guy/underdog have a chance. But under scandal? No sympathy votes.

5. Not only scandal, but a scandal that affirms everything the opposition, both within the party and outside it have been saying for the last year. That's going to make it even harder to win back fence-sitters and discouraged Republicans.

There's hundreds of thousands of posts on Trump's FB page and it seems that most of them are trying to urge him to fight on, keep going, he's so great, she's so awful, etc. The good news is that hundreds of thousands doesn't win an election. The bad news is that lots of them are women, WTF.
Republican presidential nominee Racist Teratoma said in an interview Saturday that he would not drop out of the race under any circumstances, following calls from several prominent GOP members to do so.

“I’d never withdraw. I’ve never withdrawn in my life,” Pile of Rotten Orange Peels in a Suit told The Washington Post in a phone call from his home in Future Leader of the Free World Tower in New York. “No, I’m not quitting this race. I have tremendous support.”

“People are calling and saying, ‘Don’t even think about doing anything else but running,” Brightly Burning Trash Fire said when asked about Republican defections. “You have to see what’s going on. The real story is that people have no idea about the support. I don’t know how that’s going to boil down, but people have no idea about the support.

I think she's going to wipe the floor with Trump. But it's a contest. That means it's possible to lose.

A stacked basketball or football team only loses when they fail to execute the game plan with full intention. They assume they'll win. We got people saying that "hey, I don't live in a swing state, so my vote doesn't count, so I'm not going to vote "for" Hillary but for one of the other two." That's how you lose.

Set your hatred for Hillary aside. Put her out of your mind. NOW ask yourself.. would YOU vote for someone who has publicly said crap like this ?

I don't like Hillary. I don't agree with her politics or proposed policies.

But Trump is gonna get us ALL killed. I can survive 4 years of a liberal activist president. I cannot survive a 2 megaton airburst. wrote:

I don't get this. What's not to like about her specifically? What has she done that so unlikeable? What policies do you not agree with? Hillary Clinton on the Issues: https://www.hillaryclinton.com/issues/ If you agree with 80% of this vast array issues and policy proposals then how is that statement valid?

To me, voting tepidly, reluctantly, with a false sense of what a candidate is about is a recipe for possibly losing. It's best to be "for" someone than "against" someone.

Stick a fork in him now. Is he done?

So the P____y statement is really what does him in?

When the Mexican rapist statements, the dishonoring of the Gold Star Parents, the Miss Housekeeping and Miss Piggy statements and seemingly countless others haven't?

Because this is Trump using nasty language to diss white women. Whoops.
