This is thanks to lies spread by the GOP candidate for president, his idiot vice president pick, and the 9-11 conspiracy creature he is currently on tour with.

Right-wing terrorists have descended on Springfield, OH. Republicans bring doom and gloom wherever they go.

Last election cycle he was making people hate Asians. I wonder if he thinks Haitians are the same thing, just pronounced different?

And she's trumps campaign advisor....first cats and dogs, them geece, now it's humans!  

Laura Loomer: "Haitian Immigrants Are Eating Humans”

"Haitian immigrants aren’t just eating cats and dogs. They eat HUMANS. Remember their leader? Known as ‘Barbeque’? Only Hannibal Lecter himself would want to bring more of them to the United States!

"Don’t let the media say that concerns about illegal immigration are ‘conspiracy theories’. These aren’t rumors. It’s a FACT. When you import the third world, you become the third world, and we won’t allow it here in America.

They're all in a cult, every single last one of them. The thorough detachment from reality is universal among them. The only difference is some are more bold and will act on their impulses while others in the cult sit idle and watch from the sidelines. They're all complicit as far as I'm concerned. Even the idiots who tried to say "Well, you see, when he said dogs and cats are being eaten, what he really meant was..."

Trump and his crew are yelling fire in a crowded theater, while also giving arsonists direction to the theater.

That's progress.    

Only you would equate not being an ahole with being nicer. It's not the same thing...ahole

This is exactly why this isn’t a choice between the lesser of two evils. I don’t fear Trump in 2016 because I believed in the system and the idea that despite their differences, most politicians put country over person. Trump won’t make that mistake again.

Four. It will get materially worse if he loses in November. The November to January period would be the most dangerous in that scenario.

Ok, so I looked at some rough data of the primaries, and compared the open to the closed primaries up until Haley dropped out of the race (3/6).  There were 22 events, but I dropped it down to 21 because MO changed theirs to a caucus, and I can't find any voting data on the caucus there.  I also didn't include NV in this total, because they had both a primary and a caucus, for whatever reason I don't know, and Trump was by his lonesome in the caucus.  Also of note is that there are fully open primaries where anyone can get a ballot, and semi-open where just the independents can get a ballot, so I just called both of those types open.  I also didn't look at DC because I think like 3 people voted in that primary (sorry @TEW) I just looked at the percentages Trump won of each state as the comparison. 

 

Ok so out of 19 contests, Trump averaged 68.4% of the vote.

When looking at the 5 closed primaries, Trump averaged 75.9% of the vote.  (UT is closed, but they voted for Trump at 56.4%, when if you take UT out of the equation, it goes to 80.8%.) 

For the remaining 14 primaries, Trump averaged 65.8% of the vote.

 

So states are more or less 10-15% less stupid when they let independents vote in the primaries.  That's lower than I thought.

Just out of curiosity, why MD over VA? I've always thought I'd go VA if I had to work in the DC area.

It’s nicer aesthetically and (more importantly) closer to family who have had a series of severe health issues.

The traffic is similar (worse even? I’ve seen conflicting reports) to LA, so if you’re over the bridge it adds about 20 minutes for a 1 mile stretch to cross from state to state.

NOVA would definitely be better if I was in my 20’s and weren’t dealing with 2 parents who have had 4 cases of cancer and a heart attack between them.

Sorry about your parents' health issues -- that sucks. We lost my FIL to cancer almost exactly one year ago. Brutal. 

Yeah, maybe I'm thinking about it too much if I were single. Friends who worked on the Hill out of college all lived in NOVA.

Sorry to hear that man, I remember you mentioned he was having issues a while back. Cancer is such a horrible disease.

And yeah, NOVA or DC proper is definitely better if you’re young and single.

I’d say once you hit your 30’s then Chevy Chase, Bethesda, and North Bethesda/Rockville are pretty solid for dating and have a good restaurant scene without the hassle of DC crowds and rowdy 20 somethings. Just a more mature crowd generally speaking.

I honestly wish you the best in dealing with your parents. Seeing them suffer with disease can cause as much grief as death does. 🙏 

@TEW Sorry to hear about your family health problems.  All the best with everything.

Thanks man.

My mom has had breast cancer multiple times, decided to go with a double mastectomy and just be done with it. Luckily they caught it early all times, so she’s in pretty good shape.

Father had throat cancer, and is in much worse shape (can’t swallow any more so uses a feeding tube, also had a heart attack from the stress). He actually got "lucky” they even caught it. It was stage 4 and had spread. Much longer and his lymph nodes likely would have burst which would have most likely been a death sentence.

Cancer is absolutely horrible. Wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.
