I'm loving this LTG/COF feud. I can't imagine the terrible thoughts that will be spewed if they start arguing NBA topics.

Its really a one sided battle at this point. I'm really not trying to battle him as to whether Trump can win because obviously he can as long as there hasn't been an election. I think he really wants a prediction as to whether he will win. In that case I think the answer is no.

On another note the Lance Stephenson watch is on going or are you ready to tapout Alas Iceman King Parsons?

I certainly hope that COF doesn't take this.

He's rumored to be heading to NY or Brooklyn. All the large markets want him. He's just taking his time and picking his team carefully.

I hope he signs with the Knicks. Their 2 guard situation is horrendous and he would be a huge upgrade. The only problem is that he'd be back home and he strikes me as the kind of dude that has a lot of shit going on. It may not be a good fit from that standpoint but on the court it could possibly work. That is of course if they don't run the triangle. He is not a good fit in the triangle at all. I don't think Hornacek will running it anyway so it might be a moot point. Strike the horrendous 2 guard. I forgot they have Courtney Lee. I think Lee is better suited as a backup and signing Lance would be good for both sides.

I don't know if he will be elected. I certainly hope not. The truth is, both parties have failed America. The difference being that the Republican establishment is as horrified by Trump as we are. Their great sin was failing to take him seriously until it was too late. (I find that somewhat forgivable because I admit I have a hard time taking him seriously even now. But this motherfucker certainly can win.) The Democratic Party higher-ups, on the other hand, attempted to clear the field and set the table for a Clinton presidency. And now here we are.

JORR makes a great point. The GOP does not want Trump and the Dems wanted Hillary so bad that they made sure to stack the deck for her. It says all I need to know about the "establishment" of both parties.

It's going to take a couple of weeks to see if Trump can sway independent white voters with his "minority outreach". The "What do you have to lose" slogan appears to be moving some whites.

I don't really get your angle on this. "What do you have to lose?" was a shot at Hillary just like "I'm with you". The racist is already voting for Trump.

I don't know about that. I think it was a desperate plea to the black voters who aren't going to vote for him anyway.

I look at it as a shot at the Democratic Party and that is why they are getting so upset about it. They don't really have a good answer to the question that isn't basically "Well, we aren't racist like the Republicans".

I think he looks at blighted urban communities with strong decades long democratic control and thinks that he can fix it if only they were brave enough to vote republican. He doesn't think about any of the other aspects, democrats run a city like Detroit--> Detroit sucks --> Democrats must suck --> Vote for republicans.

As though just by virtue of being a republican, all of the socio-economical issues that face minorities will be wiped away.

I agree. Trump is a big mouth who says whatever goofy shit pops into his head. His statement on the Mexican-American judge was shameful. But if you really want dog whistles, Clinton knows how to blow. And she did a lot of it while campaigning against Obama. Again, the horror of Trump has made black voters forget that.

I certain he wasn't courting blacks and Hispanics. Some pollster probably told him he has a shot if he could sway independent whites who REALLY hate Hillary. There aren't MANY Hispanics or blacks who will listen to that and decide to vote for Trump.

My wife is Mexican and naturally she and her family are very anti-Trump. She took one of those online quizzes that ask you a bunch of policy questions and match you up with the candidate that is the most close match... Guess who was the match. :lol: :lol:

He's standing in a room full of whites and telling Hispanics and blacks that their lives and communities are worthless. If only they vote for him they could walk down the street without getting shot and get a job. He will fix all the problems overnight and 95% of minorities would vote for him in 2020. That definitely sounds like a guy who is courting minorities.
