Hmm.... The Obamas and Elizabeth Warren have supposedly deleted years of tweets from Hillary Clinton, and Warren has unfollowed her.

I can't find any credible sources nor do I have an active Twitter account to check. But yea, like Seha said, it could easily mean something pretty big.
Apparently the 33k Emails were supposed to be leaked in 5 parts today from an unknown source on 4chan too, but that may have been a troll. Valefor.Sehachan said: » Bahamut.Ravael said: » Hmm....

I don't see how Warren would have any insight on the matter, but the Obamas? It's kinda weird to be jumping the gun like that when the FBI is talking about releasing a preliminary report later in the week. You would think that they would wait to snub her until more information is out. Or maybe all that's happening is that she's gonna make a new account as "president Hillary" or something like that <_<

Well about a day ago there was news that his twitter account would be handed over the next president.
Nah, the timing of that is way too early. Obama wouldn't hand over the account until the day he leaves, and it doesn't explain the deletions.

I don't think we have just enough information to make that call. It very well be them working out the transition but I do agree that it seems too early.
That doesn't explain why warren would unfollow her. Offline

She'll no doubt be a terrible president, we gain more seats in the house in senate in two years, then can nominate anyone other than Trump and mop the floor with her in 4 yours. Trump is simply too big of a buffoon to represent republicans for 4 years at an international level, it will be disastrous to the GOP brand for decades. I'm not with her, but I'll give her the rope to hang herself with. that's my take at the moment anyway. Offline

If anyone more logical, more politically capable or more reasonable/middle had ran instead of trump this year they would have easily beaten her. Well, here's the weird thing about Trump. On one hand I'm inclined to believe you. On the other, Trump has a "Teflon" characteristic that is fairly unique in politics. Sure, Clinton has gotten away with quite a bit, but she has the media and many other insiders acting as shields. Any October surprise that rivaled what happened with Trump could have been used to destroy any other Republican, but his support barely budged in spite of massive hits from the media and fellow Republicans. So yeah, he provided the Dems with more ammo, but he also went into battle with better armor. Is it an overall wash with how it would have been with a different Republican candidate? Hard to say. I'd say Clinton's biggest shield has been Trump himself.

Politico Long and complex, openers: Quote: A federal judge is ordering the Republican National Committee to detail any agreements it has with Donald Trump's campaign to engage in "ballot security" efforts in connection with next week's election — something the national GOP has been banned from doing for decades without court approval. The order also instructs the RNC to explain by 5 p.m. Tuesday what Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway and GOP vice presidential nominee Mike Pence were talking about in recent comments when they said that Trump's campaign was working closely with the RNC to make sure there is no fraud at the polls. Newark, N.J.-based U.S. District Court John Vazquez issued the order Monday after the Democratic National Committee went to court last week to allege that the RNC was violating consent decrees from the 1980s settling a case alleging that GOP pollwatchers sought to intimidate minority voters in a practice then known as "caging." The agreements allow the RNC to organize pollwatchers, but prohibit any effort to intimidate voters as they enter a polling place or to challenge individual voters, except as part of a program approved in advance by the court....

Donald Trump Campaign Owes Pollster $767,000
Newsweek Yep he stiffed someone again. Quote: Donald Trump’s campaign owes a pollster more than three quarters of a million dollars, according to Federal Election Commission (FEC) records. As The Washington Post first reported Monday, the FEC lists a polling expense of $766,756.67 by Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. as a contested debt. The recipient is listed as the research and consulting firm Fabrizio, Lee and Associates, Inc. The Trump campaign hired pollster and Republican strategist Tony Fabrizio in May. “This is an administrative issue that we're resolving internally,” Jason Miller, a senior communications adviser for the Trump campaign, told the Post. As the Post notes, Trump has previously faced accusations that he has failed to pay vendors and contractors. The Wall Street Journal described this as a pattern, citing court filings in 33 states and interviews with former business associates who said he owed them money, including a chandelier shop, a curtain maker and a lawyer. USA Today put the number of people who claim Trump stiffed them in the hundreds. The Republican presidential nominee has defended his sometimes not paying people for work, telling USA Today, “Let’s say that they do a job that’s not good, or a job that they didn’t finish, or a job that was way late. I’ll deduct from their contract, absolutely. That’s what the country should be doing.” Trump has displayed this attitude at several campaign rallies, such as when he said he wouldn’t pay for services because the lights were too bright or the microphone didn’t work. “I believe in paying, but when somebody does a bad job like this stupid mic, you shouldn’t pay,” he said at a campaign event in January. “And you gotta be tough with your people because they’ll pay, they don’t care. They’ll pay. So we’re not going to pay. I guarantee I’m not paying for this mic.” Before joining the Trump campaign, Fabrizio worked as a pollster for the presidential campaigns of Senator Bob Dole, Governor Rick Perry and Senator Rand Paul, as well as for many other politicians. Citing federal filings, the Post said the Trump campaign did not pay Fabrizio until September, months after it hired him, and that the campaign owes the firm $55,300 in addition to the contested debt. A representative for Fabrizio, Lee and Associates did not immediately respond to a request for comment. What's wrong with not paying for work not done?
Politico doesn't even show the whole story at all. But hey, if we are going to start this, why not go full throttle then? HRC owes me $1,000,000 because I didn't say anything bad about her this whole weekend. Doesn't matter one bit if we never made an agreement or anything, according to the WP, Politico, and USA Today, that doesn't matter, she stiffed me! Bismarck.Josiahfk said: » KN what are you doing? You are defending Donald trump's finances. You're worlds above wasting your time on this crap man. B) Do you pay for things you never received? |
