At the base Trump stirs the racism, hatred, violence and visions of macho man dominance rather obviously. Yes, this is a fatal additional toxicity, and definitively worse than Clinton's bullshit in which representational identity politics substitutes for the lack of substantive social and economic justice.

Without a revolution (which I don't think the merican public is capable of), the shithouse will remain full of shit.
So now that Donald Trump -- after years of race-baiting and rumor-mongering -- believes that President Obama was born in the United States, will he follow through on his promise to donate $5 million to charity once he was given proof?
That was the question posed by The Washington Post's David Fahrenthold, who has been reporting doggedly on Trump's charitable giving (or lack thereof).

This Dice guy is far the bigger and more privileged dick. Punching down. Any of us being polite and slightly inattentive for whatever reason might fall for the same schtick. And obviously he won't post video of anyone who hears and reacts to "triceratops," any more than the late-night hosts would show you the students who do know which side won the Civil War. Meanwhile, Trump's VP and likely future replacement, should he win, thinks Jesus rode in to Jerusalem on one. Worry about that. Hipster hate is trivial divide and conquer based on doubtful attributions of meaning to often random accoutrements.

Democratic Super PAC to Pay for Dirt on Donald Trump
by Alex Seitz-Wald
Hillary Clinton ally David Brock wants your Donald Trump dirt, and he's willing to pay top dollar for it.
Correct the Record, one of the well-funded super PACs Brock founded, is creating a WikiLeaks-style project to pay anonymous tipsters for scoops, which they're calling Trump Leaks.
While the effort is focused on uncovering previously unreleased audio and video recordings, Brock is interested in just about anything on Trump — as long as it's new, unflattering and procured legally.
"We're chasing everything," Brock told NBC News. That could be internal documents about Trump's business empire, his tax returns or perhaps something more personal.
Correct the Record, which is allowed to directly coordinate with the Clinton campaign, has set no financial cap on what they're willing to pay.
Posting a bounty for dirt on a political opponent is highly unusual in modern politics and seems to cross a new line in the rules of war. "We're going to extraordinary lengths because this is an extraordinary situation," Brock said.
But Brock is no stranger to high-profile stunts. Just this summer, he lined up an anonymous donor who promised to give $5 million to a Veterans charity if Trump released his tax returns. And it's not entirely unprecedented. For instance, Penthouse publisher Larry Flint once offered $1 million to anyone who could prove they had an affair with former Texas Gov. Rick Perry.
Media outlets generally refuse to pay sources for information due to ethical concerns, and Brock suspects that's kept potential sources from going public with sensitive information. "I understand the prohibition on press paying for stories, but we're not the press," he said.
Paid stories have occasionally had major political impact. The scandal that brought down former Toronto Mayor Rob Ford started with a source trying to sell a video of Ford allegedly smoking crack. Entertainment outlets like TMZ regularly pay for big scoops.
Correct the Record came up with the idea after the Huffington Post reported that someone was shopping around a video of Trump attacking singer Barry Manilow, which the news organization refused to pay for.
Brock met with the source and while the video proved unusable, he nonetheless figured there might be other good videos out there, just waiting to be freed with a little financial grease.

MIAMI — Donald J. Trump once again raised the specter of violence against Hillary Clinton, suggesting Friday that the Secret Service agents who guard her voluntarily disarm to “see what happens to her” without their protection.
“I think that her bodyguards should drop all weapons,” Mr. Trump said at a rally in Miami, to loud applause. “I think they should disarm. Immediately.”
He went on: “Let’s see what happens to her. Take their guns away, O.K. It’ll be very dangerous.”
