Fire up his base and get them out to the polls. I think it's to increase his turnout, not to depress Clinton's.

The Donald will make a killing after the election if in defeat he appears the martyr.

To borrow a risky German joke from the late 3rd Reich era about Hitler, he could help make America great by jumping off his tower.

The whole Trump thing is a satire of American politics and demagoguery.

It's pulling the curtain back on our one party rule (duopoly to some) for anyone who cares to notice.

If the word is out that the Trump poll watchers are also demonstrating their 2A rights, chances are that will depress the turnout. How this will affect the election, who knows.

Goobers with guns could also boost a reactionary participation.

This thread is a joke because the media has handed Trump his success on a plate. This commentator suggests they should pull the plug:
