Doesn't matter. They heard something the first time that resonated with their confirmation bias, and no amount of clarification will change their mind.
On that note, Obama believes there are 57 states because he said it once. He wasn't being baited or set up. Nothing he said was misconstrued. That blows a hole in his claims to any education he says he received.
...but but Obama.
Still on that stage? So predictable.
WAHHHHHHHHHHH!
Thanks for proving my earlier comment right. Also, learn to humor.

Quote: <b>quid pro quo</b>
a favor or advantage granted or expected in return for something.
Quid pro quo isn't automatically a crime. You guys are going to murder it like you did the word "collusion" to the point where you no longer know what it means.

Should at least let kids play Risk at school or something. They may learn something.
Wow, are you promoting teaching tactical warfare to children?!? What's next, are you going to bring back dodgeball?

a favor or advantage granted or expected in return for something. A “favor” by itself is a request that does not carry an obligation of reciprocity.
Trump asking someone for a favor does not carry with it the obligation of reciprocation.

Iowa poll
Just 7% say INPEACH is an important issue.
Dems are toast.

I know, but Trump claims there's no quid pro quo. Now with what he asked is it a crime? If it was Hillary or Obama doing this, it would be one no doubt.
Well, Obama did have a hot mic quid pro quo with Russia in 2012. There was also the secret airlifting of $400 million to Iran for the hostage release. I thought both were bad, but I wasn't crying "IMPEACH!" for weeks because of it.

Hmm, and that's Emerson too. They tend to be more middle-of-the-road with their polling results, barring the occasional outlier. Note that Trump is beating Biden and Warren by 2% a piece in the same poll.

A crappy one at that with an incredibly open display of bias. No thanks. Its a tabloid. They explain it in words of three syllables or less. Even republicans can understand it. I was wrong it seems. I can understand garbage, I just choose not to mire myself in it. You should learn to do the same.
You claim to be erudite, but you read the dumbest crap on the planet. Input affects output. Take your own bar up a few notches before going for the condescension approach. I read many sources. Even right wing ones. I try to get different viewpoints.

Those numbers are an enormous problem for the democrats.
Trump is bringing people to vote who haven't voted in 20 years, he is flipping democrats and is solidly welcoming latinos.

Wow...he sounds really desperate...trying to scrounge up votes wherever he can. I don't think he'll be able to gather enough to make up for all is losing and continues to lose.
It's a moot point anyway. Either he's gonna get booted out of the White House, or other more qualified Republicans will squash him in the primaries.

Could you post a link to that info? I'm seeing an attendance of 18,500 and the venue only holds 20,000.

The odds of either one of those things happening is incredibly low. Come back down to planet Earth.

I'm looking into where that number came from, but it appears to be the result of statistical sampling. In the meantime, the building was filled to capacity (note that, depending on the venue, just because a seat exists doesn't mean they fill it. 18,500 of 20,000 could still be considered "filled to capacity"), and there was a large overflow crowd of at least 5,000 according to the Dallas Police.
Note that Trump's projected overflow crowd is about the size of Beto's entire crowd for his rally on the same day. That wasn't unexpected, but it's an interesting comparison.

There isn't an NBA stadium in existence that can hold 50k people. I've been to playoff games in the United Center in Chicago and the target Center in Houston, all sellouts coming in at 22k attendance. As Rav said, 5k overflow is believable, at most, 30k in the area. Nausis numbers are not believable at all. Shocker.

I didn't expect Beto to still be able to gather such a big crowd honestly.
The only reason I'm not shocked is because it's Texas.
