> [@RickJay](#): > > No, she’s not. > > Trump’s base is solid. He may get no other votes, but he will get them. Days after it’s revealed he likes to assault women, they remain steadfast in their support. There’s no way Clinton wins an actual\* landslide\*, like Reagan’s elections. Trumps already pretty close to Mondale/Carter’s vote-share in the polls. Assuming we haven’t seen the bottom of Clinton’s oppo-file on Trump, I think he’ll end up under-performing both of those men. ---

Well he is right that most of the world, and in particular most of the American voting public, is against him. Is it paranoia when most people really do want to see you you lose? 🙂 ---

There is a conspiracy against him in the media. In the same sense that sharks sensing blood in the water is a conspiracy. ---

It’s true. On Nov 8th, more than 60 million people residing in nations all around the world will act in concert to deny Trump the presidency. If that’s not a global conspiracy, what is it? 🙂 ---

Denial in the form of claiming “a vast global conspiracy” and “a rigged election” is essential for this lunatic to maintain what remains of his semblance of mental stability. This says everything we need to know about Trump, which all the other evidence consistently bears out: Trump is absolutely only about Trump with a totally ruthless disregard for anything and everything else. He is willing to suggest to his fellow citizens, and announce to the world, that the US federal election system is “rigged” and controlled by a secret cabal, and is happy to undermine the credibility of American democracy and promote the possibility of violence by his gun-totin’ acolytes – all to protect his fragile insecurities. Because in Trump’s world, Trump either wins or is unfairly cheated; he can never lose, and he’s completely content to throw his whole country under the bus to support this fantastical fiction. I suspect that this absolutely unprecedented phenomenon will be analyzed, politically and sociologically, for decades to come. ---

No it’s true, there is a vast conspiracy against him and Clinton is their leader. They’re called “women”. 😃 ---

If anybody here listens to Politico’s Nerdcast podcast, this past Friday their nasally-voiced Trump supporter almost dog-whistled the phrase “International banks”, catching himself almost in time by saying “International… funding.” [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/trump-says-clinton-leads-global-conspiracy-against-him/768515.md?page=2)
