I was initially pressed that Anderson Cooper didn't press Donald on LGBT+ rights but after seeing how his assault question has laid yet another fatal blow, I think the good sis knew us gays didn't even need to come into it

Rip Donald into the ground and entrench gay marriage for another 4/8 years. That'll surely put away the issue forever

Is conservative media still screaming "BUT WIKILEAKS—the REAL ISSUE—WHY is mainstream media IGNORING IT?" or have they finally moved on from that?

tbh i don't think we'll know the whole impact of this until tomorrow

they need to find a new attack other than the emails though. no one cares.

Can y'all imagine if she won the election before California and the west coast's electoral votes are in?

Wasn't Obama declared the winner as soon as polls in the Central Time Zone states closed the first go around?

You know what's so exciting about this election? Virginia is starting to officially be a BLUE state and not purple anymore. That's big for Democrats moving forward. Republicans better do something because conservatism will be the fading stance by large margins once minorities become the majority in 2 or 3 more decades. Blacks and Latinos already decide elections, but by 2040 - 2050, you can't win the elections without our support. If they just wouldn't be so polarizing to people of color, they wouldn't have to be worrying about what's happening now. The GOP will still stay afloat because they'll have deep red southern states, but the rest of the country are evolving and leaving them behind. Even southern state of Georgia and North Carolina are starting to trend from red-purplish leaning states to blue-purplish leaning states. When Florida, Carolina, and Georgia turn solid blue (and they will because of high POC populations), it's game over for them for general elections. Something has to give for them.

I want a race scandal. I want him caught saying the N-word or saying something racist about a popular black figure. It'll really excite minorities which we need right now.

Him ignoring the comment, and the reports of him telling Ben Carson he knew more was coming says it all.

For the life of me, I can't understand why practically all the pundits were eager to say he did a good job that night. The part you mention alone made me think: he's done ****ed up now. It was sooo obvious that he was lying and I just could not imagine anyone watching that not coming away thinking that "aye this man has a history of sexually assaulting women".

I was ranting to friends like what debate did YOU watch?

Tbh even if the presidential race is a blowout it'll still be an intense night as the Senate (and possibly even the House) could be up for grabs and they're going to be much tighter.

I can't believe America is literally on the verge of being dragged to the left so drastically. This is exciting!

We should put some coin up for black people to go to his rallies and shout the n-word at him. He'd almost certainly reply with it nnn

Not sure about the other networks, but CNN didn't officially declare him the winner till the polls closed on the west coast and early data came in, which was at 11pm CST. Technically, the networks won't announce a "winner" till at least early results are in with the closing of the polls. However, most pretty much knew it was over after the Indiana results were in.

There is a recording of him using the N-word. My money is on it being leaked 1 - 2 weeks out from election day.

Calling it now. Trump surrogates after it breaks:

"What Mr. Trump said was wrong and childish, but at least he didn't try to jail every black person and call them superpredators like Hillary and Bill Clinton. And let's not forget President Obama and the Democrats have been failing the African American communities for decades."
