There’s going to be two debate night threads today.  The first posts at 8:00pm and the second posts at 9:30pm.  In the interim here’s a thread for general debate discussion.
Have you seen the pro-Trump deplorables in the background of CNN and media news coverage today holding up signs and cheering?   They have done an awesome job crushing the gaslighting efforts of the MSM.

Meet the Deplorable Crew:

Great job Team Trump.  Indeed, you are all patriots.

Here’s another great example of ridiculously manipulated media polling, courtesy of the State of Arizona, the Arizona Republic and Real Clear Politics.
This latest construct of alternate reality is a great example because it shows how easy it is to dispatch the credibility of often mentioned Real Clear Politics (RCP) “polling averages“.
Beginning with Real Clear Politics selling the narrative:

Now look at how the Arizona Republic release today manipulates the RCP: (more…)

Earlier today on CNN Clinton Campaign spokesperson Brian Fallon stated: “in the next three weeks we expect the polls to tighten significantly“.  Wait, huh.. wha?
The reason for Fallon’s prediction is brutally obvious, the current media polls are nonsense.  As a result, the polling averages are nonsense.  As a result the electoral maps the media want to sell today -based on those polls- are nonsense….  In essence, the same bias media coverage is embedded in their biased media polls.

In response to Hillary Clinton’s unconscious collapse in New York City, media immediately demand Donald Trump release his medical records…

Fortunately, we are at the stage in the presidential race where it is actually possible to guage what’s going on by looking at ballots, early voting, absentee ballot distribution modeling, and comparisons to prior elections.  Even if the media doesn’t want to take that approach, we can do it ourselves.

The corporate republican gaslighting is going full bore today in advance of Crooked Pickles last debate performance.   Rush Limbaugh’s “Full Throated Conservative” Senator, Marco Rubio telling everyone to reject the information coming from WikiLeaks:

[…]  “as our intelligence agencies have said, these leaks are an effort by a foreign government to interfere with our electoral process, and I will not indulge it.” “Further, I want to warn my fellow Republicans who may want to capitalize politically on these leaks: Today it is the Democrats. Tomorrow it could be us.” (link)

In order to fully appreciate little Marco’s statement above, we would suggest reading Rubio’s statements while wearing a top hat and utilizing a high-pitched munchkin voice.
Corporate republicans are not worried about Trump losing the election, they are absolutely distraught with fear that Donald Trump is going to win this election.

David Mamet had a famous saying, essentially: …‘in order for genuine liberals to continue their illogical belief systems they have to pretend not to know a lot of things’… By pretending not to know, there is no attachment to any adverse consequences.
In essence, liberalism maintained -in the face of overwhelming empirical evidence- requires feelings to overcome logic in the ongoing game of make believe.  Hence, cognitive dissonance is a defining principle as large numbers of people need to be swayed to act against their own best interests.
To retain the larger ruse, Alinsky expanded on (many would say took advantage of) the necessary dissonance and various illogical shell games (system overload) became a component of his modern approach.
We have witnessed some of the most intense distraction shell games being played in the past ten days.  Feeling overwhelmed?… that’s by design, not happenstance.

With the Clinton campaign narrative solidly in hand the MSM have been fast-hand shuffling the shells to keep the Trump campaign off balance and the larger electorate distracted.   In the current political shell game, logical focus is the enemy.  If you know the pea was dropped below the table, you wouldn’t even bother making a guess about location when the shells stop moving.

Earlier today candidate Donald Trump announced a proposition to institute term limits for all members of congress:  A constitutional amendment for six years in the House, and twelve years in the Senate:

There is another major announcement I am going to make today as part of our pledge to drain the swamp in Washington. If I am elected President, I will push for a Constitutional Amendment to impose term limits on all members of Congress.
Decades of failure in Washington, and decades of special interest dealing, must come to an end. We have to break the cycle of corruption, and we have to give new voices a chance to go into government service. The time for Congressional term limits has arrived.  ~ Donald Trump

Quick as a flash, CNN rushes to the microphones and typeset.
In what can only be described as the current intelligence customarily found amid the Clinton News Network, host and pundit Brooke Baldwin looks at her panel, smugly and condescendingly replying:

 …. “there are already term limits, so what does he mean”?

Earlier today it was reported that Secretary of State John Kerry had requested the government of Ecuador to cut off internet access for WikiLeaks head Julian Assange. The U.S. State Department denies such a claim.   However, according to NBC-Universal (not coincidental), the access has indeed been cut.

Statement from government of Ecuador below: (more…)
