mircea_popescu is surprised to discover the dude is neither vaguely black nor approximately female. seriously, somebody who's surprisingly not a minority is going to get somewhere ?
mircea_popescu: "When 2008 Republican nominee John McCain on Saturday withdrew his endorsement of Mr. Trump, that left 1996 nominee Bob Dole as the only living GOP nominee backing Mr. Trump." ahahaha epic.
mircea_popescu: "The one figure who might help keep Republicans unified during this most challenging time is the Democratic nominee. Though Mrs. Clintons approval ratings have hovered slightly above Mr. Trumps, she is one of the least popular presidential nominees in modern history."
mircea_popescu: teh deeply disturbed cans of soup roflmao.
mircea_popescu: "Inside the tower on Saturday, different plans of action were discussed. Mr. Trump and his advisers considered a joint television interview that he and Ms. Trump would give to a major network, an echo of the 1992 appearance by the Clintons on 60 Minutes after Gennifer Flowers claimed that she had had an affair with Mr. Clinton.

mircea_popescu: "In our time, women have been gaining political power as never before. There are (by my count) 17 female presidents and prime ministers around the world today. Sixty-three of the worlds countries have now had at least one female head of government or state in the past half century. But its not the fact of their being female that is important, so much as the feminine style todays female leaders have brought to politic
mircea_popescu: s. The powerful women of the 1970s and 1980s Indira Gandhi, Golda Meir, Margaret Thatcher were iron ladies, famous (metaphorically speaking) for having more cojones than the average male politician. By contrast, the female leaders of our time are not just female; they are also feminine." << check it out, msm dork actually gets it!
mircea_popescu: the fucking problem isn't that they're women, it's that they're idiots. this is intolerable, irrespective of what the circlejerk may tell itself.
mircea_popescu: and his example (merkel ; esp as seen in how she ruined germany to soak up the net result of usg's terrorism) is well chosen, too. "feminine" politics, leadership and everything else is two notches below suicide.

mircea_popescu: ie, without the government of us going abroad and borrowing to give freebies to the population (much like the govt of argentina did a decade prior), the housing of the average fambly would have went from 1600 sqft to 400sqft in this past decade.

BingoBoingo wonder what we will all learn this wednesday
BingoBoingo: Anyways the reason the MSM is rushing their "it's over narrative" on the weekend is because a few hours from now magic happens in America. Talk radio hosts repeat Trilema talking points on the air, because they get weekends off.

mircea_popescu: seems almost certain the republicans will get butchered.
mircea_popescu: if 1/4 of electorate showing up to vote actually votes trump y nada mas i would not be surprised.
mircea_popescu: which means the republicans will be crushed entirely, make like 3 senators and 5-6 reps alltogether.
