He sure does seem to be self-sabotaging. I think it’s pretty clear he never wanted the job of President in the first place— he just wanted to be seen winning an election. It’s not the having, it’s the winning.

It’s the undecided voters we need to sway. The more he fucks up the more undecided voters will turn away. His poll numbers show he’s not immune to his mistakes. We have a lot of work to do, but he’s sinking.

Collapse? No. But his poll numbers will continue to sink. Every stupid move, vile statement, or blatant corrupt activity carves off a few undecided voters. He isn’t going to to self destruct because somehow his bullshit artist shtick has permanently conned about 35% of the electorate. But his poll numbers rise and…

NBC called it possibly “the worst week in presidential campaign history.” That made me happy.

His core supporters don’t matter. Swing-voters do. Although it still seems to take a major bad week to move the polls, it is clearly the case that Trump can cross (and has crossed) a line with the very people he needs to win over in order to win the election.

I’m so fucking giddy. I’m going to toast and cheer every time he gets nailed. I think I’m going to end up black out drunk and I’m okay with that.

Yay! This is what I’m hoping is happening in swing states. If just a slice of his potential voters get fed up, it will help tremendously. I hope every day in October there is another wonderful “surprise” revealed about him.

also, this is never brought up when say...they hold 3248570987609 benghazi hearings spearheaded by republicans against a democrat in an obstructionist congress.

Taking into consideration the week he’s had, the combination could finally hurt him. Not just this by itself.

Oh my God, I just have to share this, folks!

ThinkProgress has a good summary of the last week’s exploits

Are we finally seeing the collapse of Trump as a candidate or am I just getting my hopes up?

I guess the day of her father’s death got bumped from the top spot.

I wanna see the receipts for the provenance of that diamond. I don’t expect these crass parvenus to have a conscience about blood diamonds but they are PR-savvy so they know normal people are grossed out by this kind of obscene opulence. Gross.

You know what, Jost and Che? No. I actually AM smarter than Donald Trump. I have an MBA (not from Wharton, but honestly, the only difference in MBA degrees is the level of math skill, and I have an engineering degree, so not super worried. I invest personally for myself, have bought and sold several homes and made a…

BTW, aside from Colin and Che being genuinely bad, together, the way Che “jokes” is rarely funny, either, and he seems to get off on being mean. The looks he gives Colin - who is at least trying, bless his heart - are so full of genuine contempt half the time it’s disgusting.

No more white writers telling POC what they should “really” be upset about please.

Weekend Update was the worst part of SNL this week. It’s supposed to be the best part. These two suck.

Michael Che: “Should he be president? No. You know, let’s not pretend that this guy is a mutant and he’s the most evil, racist, mutant piece of crap that ever walked. Listen, there’s probably somebody in your building way worse than Donald Trump, and you buy bagels from him, and it’s fine. You know what I mean?”

No one should own a ring worth $4.5 million. That’s disgusting
