I'd like to see the Trump campaign in a full death spiral by Labor Day.

I want it to be viewed as unsalvageable to the point of no return.

Basically, I want their campaign to be considered so poisonous, so toxic by the American people that most people wouldn't even voting for him. Basically his campaign will be seen as nothing but a joke long before November and the prospect of him losing is seen as an inevitability.

You know those movies that have awful pre-release publicity and you know that they'll bomb the moment they hit the theaters, that the situation is hopeless? I want the political equivalent to that.

I don't think we're at that point yet, but a couple more weeks of a double digit lead and we'll be close to hammering that down.

I was listening to a pundit last nightwho actually argued that Clinton's week was equally as bad as Donald. How ridiculous.

Then they were praising Donald today for staying on-script and not engaging the protesters. How the fuck is that praise-worthy? Are the expectations that low for this nitwit? Trump is like the dumbass jock who garners heaps of praise for getting a 70 on his test, lol.

Good to see the American people (as reflected in the polls) are holding Donald and Clinton to the same standards. The media clearly isn't.
