Actually he does. He won.

Anyone watch Trump’s press conference today? He’s freaking out. Just keeps getting lower and lower. I really hope he’s not making any foreign policy decisions in the near future.

Good point. I do think it’s going to get a lot worse.

great night for this democrat!!! sounds like Rhode Island

AUSTIN (KXAN) — A re-election celebration is underway in Pod 2 of the Montgomery County Jail after inmate number 232573 claimed victory in Texas House District 27. That inmate is known as Rep. Ron Reynolds, D-Missouri City, to the people on the outside.

Reynolds was unopposed in the race for District 27 and the latest vote totals show Reynolds garnered 47,305 votes in Tuesday's election.

Reynolds was booked into the county jail on Sept. 7.

After the 2015 conviction, a county judge handed down the jail sentence to the sitting lawmaker, but Reynolds spent the last three years appealing the conviction. Reynolds’ law license was suspended on May 2, 2016

And in some red districts, it was what, two Rep's under indictment and a dead pimp elected?

You're talking about the way he slapped Acosta around? I loved it. I criticize Trump all the time, but I loved this. It was glorious. It was exactly what Acosta had coming.

Acosta pretends to be a reporter, but constantly argues with Sanders and Trump. That's not reporting.

Costa tells Trump that the caravan isn't an "invasion" because they're still not here? Since when does proximity determine whether or not a group is invading or not? When the Nazis went into Poland, were they not invaders as they were approaching? isn't it the intent of the group that determines whether or not it's an invasion, rather than proximity?

Then Acosta criticized Trump for showing video od people ein the caravan throwing rocks and scaling walls, and Trump said "that's what happened, that's what they did, do you think they were actors?" Naturally, instead of answering, Acosts the weasel moved on to his next attack.

And the best part? When Trump was at his most angry, he brought up the way Acosta treats Sarah Sanders. I loved that loyalty, because it had to be genuine, because Trump was too angry to have been able to fake anything.

And that's what I'm trying to say, I loved the naked sheer authenticity of his loyalty to his press secretary. Acosta is a liberal weasel at a failing network, nothing more.

I think the act of actually entering the country is needed in order for it to be an invasion:

This isn’t an invasion. What Acosta was trying to say was that the administration and republican PACs used videos of people clamoring at fences and climbing over them when talking about the impending invasion by the caravan. They are hundreds of miles from our border and fences. The images they used weren’t of the caravan. Extremely misleading fear mongering in order to drive people to the polls.

The invasion doesn't commence until they cross the border, fine. They're invaders en route. We really need to split these hairs?

Did they invade Mexico? Sure looked like it to me. Tearing down fences, climbing over walls.

It’s not really splitting hairs... they’re not invaders until they make it to the border and then try to cross the border illegally. Until that point they’re just a migrant caravan trying to escape something.
