Former McCain Campaign Advisor Mark Salter: “He’s an ignoramus whose knowledge of public issues is more superficial than an occasional newspaper reader’s. He casts his intellectual laziness as a choice, a deliberate avoidance of expert views that might contaminate his ill-informed opinions. He excused his failure to consult professionals before commenting on the Brexit vote by dismissing foreign policy advisers in general, including his own… He’s a charlatan, preposterously posing as a business genius while cheating investors, subcontractors, and his own customers. He’s rich because his father left him a great deal of money… He possesses the emotional maturity of a 6-year-old. He can’t let go of any slight, real or imagined.” “Whatever Hillary Clinton’s faults, she’s not ignorant or hateful or a nut. She acts like an adult, and understands the responsibilities of an American president.”

I'd love to see the libertarians rise up and build something out of the GOP's rubble. Something based on rationality and reason rather than the base superstitions and tribal hate that the Republican's hold dear. I'm not optimistic about it having read Libertarian Presidential candidate, Gary Johnson's response to a softball faith question posed by CNN's Chris Cuomo:

These polls are utterly disastrous for Trump and his Republican Party. The Wave is here. FLORIDA--PRESIDENT--CNN/ORC--Clinton 51, Trump 37 IOWA--PRESIDENT--CNN/ORC--Clinton 45, Trump 41 MICHIGAN--PRESIDENT--CNN/ORC--Clinton 50, Trump 33 NORTH CAROLINA--PRESIDENT--CNN/ORC--Clinton 48, Trump 38 OHIO--PRESIDENT--CNN/ORC--Clinton 46, Trump 37 PENNSYLVANIA--PRESIDENT--CNN/ORC--Clinton 49, Trump 35 VIRGINIA--PRESIDENT--CNN/ORC--Clinton 45, Trump 38

“It would be horribly tragic if my ability to protect myself or my family were to be taken away, but that’s exactly what Democrats are determined to do by banning semiautomatic weapons.”

Ryan Cooper highlights Hillary Clinton’s “secret weapon”:

[W]e shouldn't forget the final and most powerful advantage Clinton will have: President Obama. No sitting president in modern times has ever campaigned at full strength for his party's nominee. George W. Bush was persona non grata on the campaign trail by 2008. Bill Clinton was seen as damaged goods by Al Gore in 2000, who distanced himself from the Clinton name (despite the 42nd president's tremendous popularity at the time). Ronald Reagan was already elderly in 1988 and did not have a great relationship with George H.W. Bush. LBJ quit politics altogether in 1968. Eisenhower did campaign a bit for Nixon, but he was also old by 1960, and avoided much of the campaign. President Obama, by contrast, is still quite young (indeed, he is 14 years younger than Clinton herself), and by all accounts is eager to help Clinton, who represents the best chance of preserving his legacy. Any lingering sense that a soon-to-be former president should refrain from campaigning to preserve the dignity of the office is utterly dead. And as he finishes his presidency, Obama is more popular today than he has been since the bin Laden raid — part of an upward trend that shows no sign of slowing.
