It's showtime. I hope Bernie can pull it off. It'll absolutely come down to turnout and if his supporters are enthusiastic enough to take the time to caucus.
Maybe Trump is finally taking Bernie seriously. Just saw him call him a Communist.

I'm genuinely not sure if Trump is really a white nationalist, or he's just riding the white nationalist wave because it works.
And that scares the shit out of me.

It could also be both. He is, while not to any "crazy" degree, in addition to being perfectly willing to exploit that block of voters.
Reddit will go out of business, thanks to all the suicides.
Trump doesn't know how church works. He may have his supporters believing he's religious like them, but it's clear the guy's a bigger atheist than me. You have to believe a higher power than yourself is possible before you can believe in a higher power.

I'm perfectly calm, rational, and laying out facts and arguments continuously without resorting to strawmen or insults. I'm not comparing or calling Hillary supporters (where you can find them, mostly I see people willing to settle before a vote's been cast but really hoping for Bernie) to Gamergaters, frat bros, racists, misogynists, or closet Republicans. When confronted with an argument counter to my own, I don't deflect with talk of "black ops" or change the conversation to what the worst supporters of Hillary are saying in some other corner of the internet. I don't say things like "if you're going to insult me I'm out". I stay in, I calmly make my arguments, and await responses.
I get the tactics, but they only work if you provoke the emotional response you're looking for. My emotions are reserved for the idea of a person who will make a terrible President and is unworthy of my vote for President gaining the nomination of the Party I tend to vote for. I want to vote for someone for President. I don't want to have to look into third party candidates who likely won't have much of a chance. But this is what I'm left with. The idea of the country under either Hillary or Trump makes me emotional. Making rational arguments about why that makes me emotional, or dealing with those who don't want to engage in those arguments in a straightforward manner, doesn't.

O'Malley is suspending his campaign. I'm surprised he stayed in as long as he did.
