Yes, but I'm already seeing people commenting on these stories saying, "Ha! Trump supporters couldn't afford those tickets anyway." That's not going to fucking help.
Also, as you know, largely untrue
Is this one of those fake news sites everyone is talking about?

Nate Silver is actually gay, so what you just said is super offensive. Shame!

There's a 73% chance that I read that article and a 27% chance that I didn't. I know that sounds like I almost definitely read the article, but if I didn't read the article, you shouldn't be surprised because it's not like a 27% chance is no chance at all; it's an underdog, but it still has a chance.
Spoiler: show
For real, though: this might be a better conversation to have in the election thread, but I think there is a huge problem with the fact that people keep using the phrase "non-college-educated whites" to describe Trump's base, because lots of college-educated people probably hear that and think, "Oh, poor people." Mocking the income of Trump supporters could have the same effect of labeling them all as racists and misogynists: with good reason, they'll snap back with, "I'm not poor, fuck you!" and come out to defend themselves at the polls again.

while I dont assume every trump supporter is poor as fuck and dumb.....

That is an article from May. And i wonder how much of that data is skewed by those that do make more than $200,000 and would benefit from typical repub tax cuts, and those who are poor and make maybe under $30K and are not educated. Hey clearly won by a large swatch of non college educated people. Those people that i know are the ones that inherited papa's business.

i was at the beer store this afternoon. Choosing my beers wisely. I heard some bro talking about health insurance and how he has to pay a fine this year for not being covered. The lady behind the counter felt it was a good time to voice her opinion.

"Well our fucking piece of shit jackass government makes you fucking pay for it for the rest of our lives, fucking hell!"

Ugh. Also, i wanted to chime in and let them know they can wave those fines in our county because it is so expensive

I mean, probably because he insulted a cast member in the same tweet in which he chastised him for insulting Pence. But when has that stopped him before?

Bannon: You should probably delete that?
Trump: What? It was great! To the point!
Pence: I only went to let them know what's up.
Sessions: Seems like a legit tweet.
Ivanka: I deleted it, mom.

The world has just gone fucking nuts. Just perused facebook and saw this posted to one of my dear friends facebook wall
I notice you supported Mr Colgan's message on FB attacking me for support of Trump. Yes, I made a good living in my job as an attorney. When you worked here I hope you learned that ethics were first!
I was a Bernie Sanders supporter. I donated to his campaign. When I learned that Lawyer Hillary ignored a Congressional Subpoena and destroyed 33,000 emails, when she "earned" $30 Million personally while a "public servant" and Her "Husband" "earned" $150 Million selling influence, AND WHEN I LEARNED OF WIKI LEAKS emails showing DNC stealing of election from Bernie I could NOT support her...
Colgan supported Barczak and his next boss LaNeave who both were subpoenaed by a Grand Jury to testify in Texas in UTU scandal.
I do not and will not support Union, Management or Lawyers Who are crooks.
If you agree, you can "like". If you don't agree, I feel sorry for who You have become...I am disappointed that my former employee and spouse of my Godson Paul, also a lawyer, would endorse the musings of a person who supported lawyers accused of bribing union officials.

It just proves that Trump is as thin-skinned and blocked off from reality as ever. He always will be.
Finally watched this and I found it pretty awful - what a demonstration of the kind of self-satisfied, pious hectoring that many people find so off-putting about modern liberalism.

Pence deserves to go see a show with his family like anybody else, even the most public of figures deserves a private life.
