Summary:
1. Trump will easily win, but the election is "rigged" for Clinton.
2. The media NEVER brings up her private e-mail server, the Clinton Foundation or Benghazi... despite that's how they heard about those things.
3. Democrats plan to intimidate people at the polls, so they will watch out for that... and do it themselves.

I provided some "spoilers" there, but it's still worth watching!

They're walking, talking contradictions!

There are no Trump signs or bumper stickers in my Trump stronghold neighborhood. They will just vote for him. They're virtually the KKK hiding under white sheets.

... miss out on registering. I've heard Tea Party types in the past who admitted that they'd NEVER voted!

Some of them also might chicken out over the possibility of -- GASP! -- jury duty! It's based on voter registration here.

She has more creative involvement in Full Frontal, and it shows in the talent of the two interviewers in the video. Show is not on as often, but when she is on she is very good.

... they must be very good at one thing, which allows them at least to be gainfully employed.

Either that or they inherited, gamed the disability system, cook meth in the basement to sell to their friends, are TV preachers, or any combination of the preceding.

This was completely winged and they did a masterful job of gently and kindly leading their subjects exactly where they wanted them to go. I am old enough to remember Froggy the Gremlin on the Andy's Gang Show. They must have study his old clips.

Their unrestrained laughing and cheering for Froggie, as he dismantles the adult, leaves no doubt that they are having the time of their lives.

The ones from small rural towns around here are the worst because of their "echo chambers" there.
