Now they've changed their tune.

What the hell was up with them? Everyone else knew Trump is the biggest loose cannon, screw-up, crazy ass MFing racist ever in a presidential race.

Why didn't they?

drop in Hillary's bounce. Poll tonight was within 6. No one, not me, not you, not Cenk, not Moore can predict what will happen in this insane election.

In fact, he's already lost it with the assassination threat.

Repugs themselves are fleeing from him so they don't get tainted in their own current or future races for having supported him.

and if it were about Clinton, she would lose. Maybe that it an oversimplification, but it does seem that the election is turning on Trump's personality. When he spoke at the time, it was to criticize the ineffectiveness of Clinton campaign at going after Trump, that they should do more to tear him down. How could he (or anyone else) have known Trump would self-implode as he has done.

Shouldn't it from Trumps point of view mean that the second amendment people voting to prevent Hillary from the white house = a good day? The fact that he added Horrible after he said that the second amendment people can take care of it tells me that he feels that they should KILL Hillary.

He should go to prison for saying that.

The most they dare do, generally, is not to endorse it. Almost none will step up and advocate voting against it.

Like other Bernie fans, sounds like he has come around. He believed that Bernie would have polled better against Clinton and for quite a while she was not that far ahead.
