Forget Ohio - almost every poll shows Clinton leading in Florida and Pennsylvania. If she wins those states, she can lose Ohio, New Hampshire, Wisconsin, Iowa, North Carolina, Colorado and Nevada and she still wins.

When Pennsylvania and Florida are called for Clinton, pop the champagne, we’ve got a woman…

Because they still don’t get what’s offensive about it. They think it was the language that people are freaking out about.

Trump could have said “I like to kiss touch women in their private places without asking first, they let you do that when you’re famous.” and it would have been equally horrifying.

Actually, it’s much more aggravating when anyone not in NYC, DC or Shanksville, or who suffered a personal loss on that day trying to take ownership of 9/11. Because they saw it on TV.

New Yorkers are generally “over” 9/11, as it were. They were basically over it in October, 2001. Yes, there is still a wound there,…

STFU, Hamilton.

Having talked to female sports reporters, the claim that what Trump said is “locker room talk” is not entirely inaccurate.

Betting on baseball?

Donald Trump knows that winning a debate is all about the expectations. He’s so committed that he did terribly at the first debate just to lower expectations for the second one.

BUT CAN IT TOUCH MY SOUL

92 career OPS+

Corey Seager, Carlos Correa, Francisco Lindor, Brandon Crawford, Addison Russell, Andrelton Simmons, Elvis Andrus, Xander Bogaerts, Troy Tulowitzki, Trevor Story, Marcus Semien, Tim Anderson, Asdrubal Cabrera, Didi Gregorius and Zack Cozart all had more WAR than Hardy this year.

But true, Manny Machado was better than…

but did Mike Trout or Mookie Betts move off their normal positions to play top-shelf shortstop for a month and a half when the regular shortstop was injured?

How’d things work out for that next king, anyway? ;-)

Literally every party in Germany was against reparations. Reparations were not why Hitler rose to power.

Again, you are incorrect. Hitler rose because of the Great Depression, not because of the reparations (which had been indefinitely suspended in 1932 in the Lausanne Conference).

This AskHistorians post (with sources) sums it up fairly well:

If it wasn’t for the Americans, France would be Russia.

Stalin wasn’t going to stop at Berlin.

This is actually a myth pushed by the Nazis. The German economy was fucked by the Germans themselves, not by reparations.

They’re technically not eliminated yet. If Toronto beats Baltimore tonight, the Yankees win tonight and sweep the weekend, Detroit wins fewer than 2 games, and Seattle wins fewer than 3, they’re tied for the second Wild Card.

It’s exceptionally unlikely that will happen, but it’s possible. And there’s only four games…

That roller coaster directly behind the scoreboard made me fear for my life.
