Funny: Triumph The Insult Comic Dog Holds Pro-Trump Carnival
This is all kinds of awesome guaranteed to make you laugh.
Triumph the Insult Comic Dog has released a second clip from “Triumph’s Summer Election Special 2016.”
I literally laughed out loud at a lot of this – from arguing with Trump supporters, perusing anti-Hillary merchandise to finally organizing his own carnival.
Stayed tuned for the dunking booth that features an insulting Muslim and married gay couple.
Great way to head into your weekend.

ABC Reporter Calls Breitbart’s Milo Yiannopolous A 13-Year Old Idiot
You may have heard of Milo Yiannopoulos, the loathsome toad who among other things is captivated by trolling folks on social media for his own sense of delight.
The openly gay (I hate that the LGBT community has to include him in our tribe) Tech editor for anti-LGBT media site Breitbart, and a self-proclaimed entrepreneur was kicked off Twitter for life for his direct attacks on people.
ABC News’s Terry Moran interviewed Yiannopoulos for a piece on trolling, and I’m guessing Yiannopoulos’ employer Breitbart wasn’t thrilled with the results.
ABC’s Terry Moran launched a full scale attack on Breitbart Tech editor Milo Yiannopoulos as part of a feature for ABC Nightline, calling Milo an “idiot,” “revolting” and comparing him to a “13-year-old” child.
The piece centered around the topic of trolling, with ABC describing Milo as “the tip of the iceberg in a rising tide of hate and abuse in social media, one he clearly sees as a noble purpose.” Asked by Moran whether he would call Leslie Jones a “dude” to her face, Milo confirmed that he “probably would.”
“Then you’re an idiot,” Moran angrily replied.
The segment continues, describing Milo as a “self-proclaimed troll” who “makes a career out of sparking outrage, spreading vitriol at many and helping to legitimize a movement of negativity growing on the internet.”
“You’re going to go after somebody’s body to go after their ideas, what grade are you in? Are you a 13-year-old?,” to which Milo said that the real problem lies with the body positivity movement and the “idea that you can tell women they’ll be happy and health at any size.”
“My rudeness creates conversation, provokes people into saying oh what a monster and then 20% of people start talking about what I was actually saying I will consider my career to be a terrific success,” Milo added.
You really should watch just to get an idea of the hideous people out there who live to insult for sport.
Leaked Script: What The Trump Campaign Wants Black Voters To Hear
Republican presidential candidate has spent a lot of time talking about African-Americans and their lives in the U.S. during the last few weeks in hopes of courting their votes.
However, what he has not done is actually go into a black community or church and address those voters face to face.
Tomorrow, Trump will sit down with Bishop Wayne T. Jackson for a one on one interview that will air on Bishop Jackson’s cable TV network, Impact Network.
The New York Times is reporting today, however, that Trump’s side of the interview will be rehearsed. In fact, the campaign has already written his script for him.
Jackson apparently sent the list of planned questions to Trump days in advance of the sit down, and the NY Times has obtained a document containing Trump’s carefully crafted answers.
An eight-page draft script obtained by The New York Times shows 12 questions that Bishop Wayne T. Jackson, the pastor, intends to ask Mr. Trump in the taped question-and-answer session, as well as the responses Mr. Trump is being advised to give.
The proposed answers were devised by aides working for the Trump campaign and the Republican National Committee, according to an official who has been involved in the planning but declined to be identified while speaking about confidential strategy.
Given the importance of Donald J. Trump’s visit to a black church, the Trump campaign went so far as to script Mr. Trump’s answers to the church’s pastor’s questions, which were submitted in advance. A draft of the script was obtained by The New York Times.
The document includes the exact wording of answers the aides are proposing for Mr. Trump to give to questions about police killings, racial tension and the perception among many black voters that he and the Republican Party are racist, among other topics.
According to reports, the scripted answers are light on policy, and written with the hope that Trump will be able to avoid the stumbles he’s encountered in the past when asked about his faith.

Donald Trump Has 1 Florida Field Office – Hilary Clinton Has 51
Donald Trump doesn’t believe you need voter data and field offices to win a presidential election.
For instance, in Florida Trump currently has one field office.
One.
By comparison, back in 2012, Mitt Romney had 24 offices in Florida by June 2012.
It’s worth mentioning, however, that the Trump campaign says they do have three RVs working as “mobile field offices” on the move in the state helping to organize Trump voters.
Hillary Clinton, on the other hand, has 51 field offices in the Sunshine State. Thirty-two were opened in the last month alone.
As many political pundits have noted, Trump’s path to victory in the electoral college has to include Florida. It’s pretty much a “do or die” state for him. Currently, Clinton leads Trump in Florida by about 3 points according to the Real Clear Politics poll average.
Also worth noting that there are 259,000 more registered Democratic voters than Republican. So, Donald is going to need every Republican vote he can get. And that’s where field offices show their value in terms of GOTV efforts.
Hillary On Donald Trump’s Mexican Fiesta Fiasco
First of all, at this point we don’t even know who’s telling the truth.
Second, who was this Donald Trump who showed up in Mexico being all meek and low energy?
Does he only talk tough when he’s safely inside the US?
As a candidate, Trump has already embarrassed us on the world stage.Imagine the damage he’d do as president. pic.twitter.com/nmOVOboTYf

Latino Trump Supporter Warns Of “Taco Trucks On Every Corner”
If you were wondering why #TacoTrucksOnEveryCorner has been trending for hours on Twitter, here you go.
Via Business Insider:
The founder of the group “Latinos for Trump” made an unconventional argument for Donald Trump’s immigration plan during an appearance on MSNBC Thursday night.
Marco Gutierrez, in an interview with host Joy Reid, described Latino culture as “imposing” and “dominant,” and suggested that without the GOP presidential nominee’s 10-point plan to overhaul the United States’ immigration policies, there might be “taco trucks on every corner.”
“I don’t even know what that means, and I’m almost too afraid to ask,” Reid responded.
Fortunately, the folks at the Washington Post can explain JUST what that means.
As most of you know, a taco truck is a box truck with a kitchen in the back that serves Mexican food. And it turns out this could very well be the employment answer we’ve been looking for.
The Washington Post crunched the numbers and guesstimates that there are about 3.2 million intersections in America. If you put one taco truck per intersection, staffed with the usual three employees, that results in 9.6 million jobs!
Tequila!
If you assume that three people work in each truck, that’s 9.6 million new jobs created. The labor force in August was 159.4 million, with 144.6 million employed. Adding 9.6 million taco truck workers would help America reach nearly full employment — and that’s just the staffing in the trucks. Think about all of the ancillary job creation: mechanics, gas station workers, Mexican food truck management executives. We’d likely need to increase immigration levels just to meet the demand.
Moderators For Presidential Debates Announced
The Commission on Presidential Debates has announced the moderators who have been selected for the four showdowns scheduled between now and November 8th.
These are all highly qualified, fair people. No one will call anyone on this list biased.
From CBS News:
NBC News’ Lester Holt will moderate the first presidential debate, scheduled for Sept. 26 at Hofstra University in Hempstead, New York.
According to the CPD, the debate will be divided into six segments of about 15 minutes each on major topics to be selected by the moderator and announced at least one week before the debate.
CBSN anchor and CBS News correspondent Elaine Quijano has been named the moderator of the vice presidential debate, which will take place on Oc. 4, 2016 at Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia. It will be the only veep forum between Democratic Sen. Kaine of Virginia and Republican Gov. Pence of Indiana.
Quijano will be the first anchor of a digital network to moderate a national debate in a general election campaign. In the vice presidential debate, the time will be divided into nine segments with about 10 minutes of discussion on each topic, and the moderator alone will determine the questions to be asked.
CNN’s Anderson Cooper and ABC News’ Martha Raddatz will ask questions of the candidates in the second debate on Oct. 19 at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri.
This debate will take the form of a town hall meeting, where half of the questions will be posed directly by participants. The other half will be asked by the moderators. Town hall participants will be uncommitted voters selected by the Gallup Organization.
“Fox News Sunday” host Chris Wallace will moderate the third debate on Oct. 19, which will be held at the University of Nevada-Las Vegas campus. The third debate will take the same format as the first forum.
