Yeah, and there's been so much focus on it the past year that it can't possibly still have the shock value it did initially.

Go after him being a con man, go after Drumpf U and every other massive business failure he has, go after the fact had he invested his inheritance in the market and performed at an average level, he'd be much richer than he currently is. Go after his misogyny, go after his mental instability, go after Manafort working for Putin.....just so much to go after that can harm as much or worse than the race stuff.
Don't agree with this, though. They seem to be going towards the "this guy is dangerous and might pose a national security threat if he's elected" path, which I've said all along is the right way to deal with him. This stuff is what really matters: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/05/op...nton.html?_r=0

Convincing everyone he's a bad person is beside the point; that's what you do with otherwise capable candidates if you want to discredit them. The downside risk of a Romney presidency was policies that would have negatively impacted poor people and the environment. The downside risk of a Trump presidency is driving civilization into a gutter. That's the key point here, the prospect of this guy having power is legitimately a threat to peoples' safety.

He will make decisions that will result in dead Americans, to say nothing of dead non-Americans, because every President has to make those decisions. Trump making those decisions is a horror show. Listen to this. Trump simply cannot do this job.
Spoiler!
