BREAKING NEWS - Special report: In Chester County, Pa., college-educated white voters lean away from Trump - Read Story



I fail to see how that is either a special report or breaking news.
They just have to put Drumpf in the headlines, don't they.

Yep. "Breaking News" is a bit of a joke, across the board. The words have no meaning anymore.

Maybe they should change it to "HOLY FUCKING SHIT, THIS JUST HAPPENED!"


But yes, if it's the Orange Scrotus, it has to be "Breaking News", like when he was going to make one of his (many) "statements" about something, and they showed a podium for 30 fucking minutes.

Eat a dick.

We'd better start looking at Tim Kaine.

Anyway, I hate to be morbid, but I wonder what the historical context of this is...if any presidential candidate has passed away before the election, would the VP candidate automatically be the new nominee?

If they die before election day, the delegates can get together and pick whomever they want. If they die after the electoral college vote but before inauguration, the VP becomes POTUS.

The interesting scenario is if the candidate dies after the popular election but before the electoral college is finalized. In that case the members of the electoral college can pick a replacement.

Can you imagine the shitstorm that would come from that? These idiots can't get together to make sure people on the Terrorist watch list can't have guns.

I honestly believe if that were to happen that there would be a special election some months later.

The electoral college is different from Congress.

Vote Hillary, and notorious hacker on steroids 4chan and his racist smug frog may-may will finally be brought to justice.

I rate this three exploding Fox News vans out of five.

This election cycle is too stupid for words. I'm voting for Kang.

The electoral college is different from Congress.

They all run in the same circles. And the votes are counted by Congress. If half or more of Congress doesn't show up then what happens?

There is no way the GOP would allow it to happen.

I didn't know Pepe was now associated with white supremacy

The "alt-right" consist of a lot of 4chan types who like throwing out racist memes, probably more to get the lulz than an actual agenda. The white supremacists out there appear to have latched onto that whole thing.
