Ann Coulter tweeted that "if only people with 4 grandparents born in the U.S. were voting, Trump would win in a 50 state landslide."

Meanwhile, Donald Trump's mother was born in Scotland. And his current wife and would-be First Lady was an illegal immigrant herself.

But yes, Ann, let's remake America in your xenophobic vision. :lol:
Plus, that's semi-literally the Nuremberg laws.

I get that Hitler comparisons don't make that much sense, but as long as the Trump camp is coming up with such BS on the regular it's not hard to understand where they're coming from

Ironic that Trump and his supporters have been demonizing the media, yet they are in many ways to blame for his success.

Yup, plus Clinton has also more or less completely focused on attacking Trump rather than his policies.

Which makes sense given his huge personality flaws and the way the media reports on the election, but it's still kinda sad.

How about abandoning the ridiculous elector system and just count people's votes?
Don't be silly, who in the world would even come up with such a ridiculously bad idea?

Not so much the presidential part, but to fill out the phone-book-sized ballot in San Francisco, this is hilarious for all our state and local ballot measures:

But seriously, why do you need to vote on grocery bags TWICE? :lol:

The problem is that people are taking the Hitler and Mussolini comparisons the wrong way. No one is trying to say Trump will start genocides and WWIII. Nor that his policies mirror theirs.

The comparison is with regards to the way they rose to power, and the far right populism + white nationalism they appealed directly to. Trump is trying to gain power in a very similar fashion.

Yup.

Plus, the mere fact that actual Neo-Nazi fascist groups are reeeaaally excited about Trump is something that automatically should make you very worried about this guy and his campaign.

That's really the kinda thing you have elected representatives for though.

The fact the KKK is leading one of his major get-out-the-vote ground game operations in the South speaks volumes.

Well, it didn't take long for the Trump campaign to file a lawsuit. Nevada is first up on the legal trail.

Clinton could have a Reagan-Mondale landslide victory and he would still think this is rigged.
Shot down. He tried to challenge that people in like at the close of polls werent entitled to vote. Dumbass.

First time I'm watching the coverage of the US election. It's like watching a Milan vs Inter game, unable to cheer for any of them you can atleast hope the stadium crumbles onto the pitch and kills both teams.
