Ivanka:

The Don Jr:
-Implied no one wants to see his father's 12,000 page tax filing

All of which are being reported to various degrees. I don't know if they've gotten cocky or if Trump is tired of having his hand held, but this may shape up to be a very interesting week.
And it is still just 7:00 pm EST.

(22,674 posts)Drumpf could massacre halls of his supporters and drink their blood on live TV and his 90% will hold position and vote for him anyway.
The block HRC seems to be focusing on ATM are the 18 - 34 y.o. supporting Stein, of which 15% of the LV are. Thus IMO yesterday's 20 tweets. If she gets half of them to rethink throwing their votes away on Stein, we could see a landslide of blue. Everybody wins. We need to get the young to recognize this fact, that we all win if we all vote as one.
