    It was merely an hour or so after the big reveal when I started seeing these jokes in my feed.

    I wonder whether that's true in these two cases, frankly. If it is, that's either nepotism or someone taking the piss.

    Apparently they've changed the logo.

    Shit like this has further convinced me that Trump's campaign is nothing more than a huge troll. :lol:

    Pence is taking heavy criticism from "journalists" for taking his family to Chili's while in New York. Then came some push back.

    So Clinton VP predictions?

    If I were her, I would go with Tim Kaine or Elizabeth Warren.

    A minority on the ticket is not necessary since Trump has already done a good job of alienating those folks and motivating them to vote against him, regardless of the Democratic pick.

    Vilsack. The comedic potential of referring to him as "Vice President Ballsack" outweigh any negatives he might have. :D

    That just bugs me because you could keep both logos in their original orientation and have it be a great depiction of a piston pushing a shaft.

    Trump adds another 'A-lister' Republican to speak at the convention: Scott Baio.

    are you familiar with the laundry list of ways Mike Pence called bullshit on Donald Trump over the last year? He reversed all that shit within 24 hours once he got offered the VP. Looks like a completely craven power grab, more likely it was because he actually think he is saving the GOP from Trump nominating someone as batshit crazy as he is and blowing what little chance they have of winning - in other words, his motives would be pretty much the same as Bernie's

    I really don't think Johnson is much of a Randian at all, and I'm certain that if her were miraculously elected no such ideas would make it so far as a vote in committee...and that he's smart enough to know that. I honestly don't think Johnson is a libertarian in the classic sense at all. He's a mash-up of Republican (professed, not practices) small-government ideas, Democrat social ideas, and libertraianish non-interventionist foreign policy. The LP just happens to be the best vehicle for advancing in the current system.

    Good lord, these people are barking loons.

    There's one video whose title makes it sound like it shows election workers whiting out Sanders votes, but all the video shows is people arguing about where they're allowed to record. Another is an interview with an election worker, with very obvious edits, that fails completely to show any tampering.

    The Bernie Bros have gone off the deep end.
