These are some odds and ends I've collected in the past couple of weeks.
-Trump's immigration speech today, the one Harry Reid punked him on? Do you know that clownstick actually said we should admit only those "who support American values like tolerance and pluralism"? "We must also screen out any who have hostile attitudes towards our country or its principles;" "Those who do not believe in our Constitution, or who support bigotry and hatred;" "Only those who we expect to flourish in our country—and to embrace a tolerant American society—should be issued visas."

Guileless statements like are reinforcing that Trump is mentally ill; are support that he is stupid; that he is the cause of stupidity in human beings; that he's throwing the election; for if he is neither mentally ill nor stupid then he has guile. also stupid.
-On Trump's claim that some people will vote "10 times" if the voting isn't policed: "I'd like to see him try to vote 10 times on Election Day."-Lorraine Minnite, a political science professor at Rutgers University who wrote The Myth of Voter Fraud.
-The Democratic candidate for president proposed spending $400 billion on America's infrastructure in her economy speech. The Republican candidate proposed spending twice that amount. For years the Republicans in Congress have refused to fund any expenditure in infrastructure.
-“America’s role in the world matters to me, and I don’t want a president who yells at other people,” said Adam Woldow, a dermatologist in Richboro, Pa., who said he voted for Mr. Romney in 2012 and John McCain in 2008.
As he waited for his station wagon to emerge from a carwash, Dr. Woldow paused to consider why Mr. Trump bothered him so much. “He just has so much baggage at this point, all the things he keeps saying,” he said. “I feel he’s even a bit racist.” Dr. Woldow said he was leaning toward Gary Johnson, the Libertarian candidate.
-“I liked that he was politically incorrect. But now I feel, enough already,” Trish Grove, a banker, said as she finished lunch at a diner here in Doylestown, a bellwether suburb north of Philadelphia. “He’s not going to win a majority of voters by sounding offensive and ridiculous.”
That clicking sound you just heard was millions of American voters changing the channel.
-"Even Trump acknowledged Thursday that his campaign was "having a tremendous problem in Utah," a reliably Republican state where Mitt Romney won more than 70% of the vote in 2012..."
-"...Longtime GOP voters appear persuadable [i.e. to vote for Clinton] such as Don Campbell, executive director of the National Electrical Contractors Association, and a Republican who's backing Clinton.
"I've never seen anything like this in my life. I feel like we are out of control," said Campbell, who met Clinton when she toured a Las Vegas electric company Thursday. "It's because of what comes out of his mouth and there are a lot of people who are making the same decision."
