@crackerjack I think that scowl’s going to get just a little longer too.

I love it when he gives the thumbs up and reinforces the stubby digits meme. That said, I think we will see him present his (comparatively) longest digit before this election is over…

No problem for Drumpf. His supporters are illiterate, or at least he’s counting on that.

Here’s Trump on Iowa, after the election, where he got fewer votes, but he felt he’d won, if you’d counted the votes differently:

“There are those that say I actually came in first, depending on how you want to count the votes, to be honest, because that was a horrible thing that took place,” Trump said on “Meet The Press.”

Just as his accountants factor in the value of the Trump name in coming up with his billionaire status, he adds 10 points to every poll because he is himself.

Why stop at 100? Trump is surprised that the polls don’t go up to a billion. A much nicer number.

Well, at least he’s not running the details of his campaign like he ran the details of his Casino…oh wait, nevermind…

I am not good at photoshoping things, but if you added a comment to Hillary something along the lines of “yea right, sure, whatever” it would fit the picture real good .:wink:

Stories like this BEG for jokes. Know why Trump will never replace Chris Christie with Ron Johnson as his personal doormat? He doesn’t want the world to be reminded about him always stepping on his Johnson.

Sorry. I just couldn’t help myself

An interesting observation, GOET. Perhaps the following may add some insight.

But when you compare the polls to votes — Republican primary and caucus results — the bulk of evidence suggests that there aren’t many shy Trump supporters.

Indeed, there’s little reason to think that we’re in for a surprise in the general election because of Trump outperforming his polling on Election Day. As Cohn pointed out, the difference in Hillary Clinton’s margin over Trump between live-interview and online polls is fairly small right now at 2.5 percentage points, and that may have more to do with how the horse-race question is asked than the survey mode. This doesn’t mean that Trump won’t greatly outperform his polls or that people won’t be afraid to voice their support for him. But when you look at the evidence from the primary season and the general election survey results so far, I would bet on the polls getting Trump right again.

The top reply to Trump’s tweet as of midday Wednesday was a link to this search result:

which is greater 42 or 40

Love it!

By the way, we will know that “the Google” has achieved true sentience when it spontaneously starts responding to questions like that with answers like “what, are you fucking kidding me?”

Well, clearly the two numbers don’t add up to 100 and when you include the missing ones, it’s Trump in a landslide!
