Overnight Open Thread (7-12-2016)
The contempt figures into this, too. The Clintons believed that they could keep people in the dark about their records and their purposes simply by controlling their public events and lock critics out. Unfortunately for everyone, this contempt turned out to be...justified.
It's funny, they say that nationalism is evil, but they actually mean other people's nationalism. And if an American moved to Sweden or Finland and wrote a book about how smug, insular, and close-minded people there are, that would be Ugly Americanism.
-- Glenn Reynolds
ESPN is simply MSNBC with better visuals.
-- Ed Driscoll commenting on the ESPN panelist who called the Dallas police shootings a 'revenge story'.
"It is surprising to me that liberals and progressives object to the term 'government schools,'" he said on the show. "They like government, don't they? These people want more taxation and government spending, don't they? Well, when we think about our public schools, we find they have all the characteristics of government programs."
Are Blacks Disproportionately Involved In Police Shootings?
Short answer: No.
What was the racial breakdown of those who were shot by police in 2015? The largest number, 494, almost exactly half, were white. 258 were black, 172 were Hispanic, and the remaining 66 were either "other" or unknown. (Interestingly, Asians are rarely shot by police officers.)The 258 blacks represent 26% of the total. That is about double the percentage of blacks in the American population. Is that prima facie evidence of racism on the part of law enforcement? Of course not. It is common knowledge that blacks have an unusually high rate of contact with the police, both as victims and as perpetrators. In 2012-2013, the Department of Justice found that blacks were the perpetrators of 24% of all violent crimes where the race of the perpetrator was known (in 7.8% of violent crimes, it was unknown).
So the percentage of blacks fatally shot by police officers (26%) is almost exactly equal to the percentage of blacks committing violent crimes (24%) [to be clear, that is the percentage of violent crimes committed by blacks, as stated above, which is the relevant comparison]. Indeed, given that the black homicide rate is around eight times the white rate, it is surprising that the portion of blacks fatally shot by policemen is not higher.
In officer-involved shootings in . 10 cities, officers were more likely to fire their weapons without having first been attacked when the suspects were white. Black and white civilians involved in police shootings were equally likely to have been carrying a weapon. Both of these results undercut the idea that the police wield lethal force with racial bias.[I]n the arena of "shoot" or "don't shoot," Mr. Fryer found that, in tense situations, officers in Houston were about 20 percent less likely to shoot suspects if the suspect were black. This estimate was not very precise, and firmer conclusions would require more data. But, in a variety of models that controlled for different factors and used different definitions of tense situations, Mr. Fryer found that blacks were either less likely to be shot or there was no difference between blacks and whites.
And intriguingly, he found that the rise of mobile video did not substantially change the results in Houston. Racial gaps were about the same in years when iPhones and Facebook were prevalent and in years when they weren't.
Heather Mac Donald: #BlackLivesMatter is Based on a Lie
It is so appropriate that the Black Lives Matter movement took off on the basis of the Michael Brown shooting in Ferguson, which as you say, Rush, was a hoax and has continued to venerate Michael Brown as a martyr to police brutality, which is also a hoax, because the entire movement is based on a lie.
It is simply not the case that the police are disproportionately shooting black males when you take violent crime into account. And for President Obama to give that movement any credibility when it is now threatening law and order itself, we are at risk of attacking the very foundation of civilization if this type of hatred continues.
Allahpundit's Theory On What's Going on With the Notorious RBG
That's one theory - that she's already planning to get off the Court as soon as possible. Four days ago, anticipating her "RBG Uncensored" knocks on Trump this past weekend, Ginsburg told a reporter from the AP that the next president, "whoever she will be," will likely have multiple Supreme Court vacancies to fill. That was a hint that she's on her way out and that she thinks Hillary has this in the bag. She may feel so confident about Clinton's chances and so sure about her own impending retirement that she's lost her inhibitions about signaling bias against the other party's nominee, suspecting that she'll never have to rule on an initiative of President Trump's.
Along with no Scalia around to shame her and a little dementia.

Where once thousands a day were smuggled by the mafias on cheap rubber rafts, very few are making the trip this summer.To shut down the Eastern Mediterranean route, countries such as Macedonia, Hungary and Bulgaria acted independently and threw up razor-wire fences along their southern borders, defying Europe's central authority in Brussels.

He got to ranting and I got to thinking. This is a pyscholological experiment. Figure out how to get the reward centers of the human brain going with something, you know, a dopamine/endorphine hit, and see what you can make humans do.
It's geospatial intelligence as well. Use masses of stupid humans running around getting their jollies like monkeys to map out all the locations all over the world.
He was going on about some precursor game to this shit that allowed a map database of some Ford plant to be made, something Ford didn't want known. The layout of the plant.

Thank you. In my advanced stage of galloping curmudgeonhood, I'm allergic to all ostentatious shows of "sensitivity" and "caring" shit. It's just too precious. The Feds spend a buttload of money on cancer research; enough that progress in cancer research is, I suspect, zeroth order in funding, i.e., more funding won't make any difference. Progress is idea-limited, not funding-limited (again, as I suspect).

But the worst part about the whole thing was some bogus article about how she might have gotten implants without any good titty pictures, before and after, here and there, bikinis and sweaters ... WTF sort of BS is it to have none of that but title the article about possible breast cheating? That's the worst sort of fake click-bait.

Hana ok here's the thing, big fake boobs don't really look like natural boobs. They just don't hang the right way, especially the saline type.
Small implants look a lot more natural.
Now, I'm not a man so maybe the beach ball on the chest thing is a turn on, but to me the closer you get to looking like something that exists it nature, the better.

Back when my sister was in college, she had a roommate -- Lisa, "the Nose" (for some odd reason, six of the people my sister knew in college were named "Lisa" and we had to get creative to know who the hell she was talking about at any given time). I knew that Lisa, "the Nose" had breast surgery before I met her -- and then we met and spent a day doing stuff.....and only later found out that she had previously had breast *reduction* surgery.
She was still significantly over-endowed. Can't begin to imagine what she'd started with.

Let's hope it doesn't become a favorite hangout for summo wrestlers
I was once at a beach on Martha's Vineyard which turned out to be clothing optional. Nobody in my party removed anything (although we were all in pretty good shape at the time - this was in the late '80's). We laughed at an old man who basically looked like a tan beach ball who strolled nude up and down the beach for about an hour - while eating a banana.
There were also some elderly hippie type women going topless and that was even worse than a Yoko picture. The boobehs were practically dragging in the sand.
That experience and pics I have seen of nude/topless protesters confirm my opinion that the people you would most like to see naked are almost never the ones who get naked in public.

I dont see how. She's got tons of friends, does lots of charity work and donations, and I've never heard anyone complain that she was difficult.
When I was in HS, there was a pretty cheerleader that I assumed was stuck up. She would say hello to me which sort of intimidated me. She got my name wrong and I never corrected her. For the next 3 years she said hello to me every time I saw her. At first I thought it was funny but then I started feeling bad but felt too stupid to go up to her and tell her the truth. Right before graduation somebody told her and she confronted me, asked me why I did it, started crying and ran off. Never saw her again. 30 years later I still feel like a jerk.

When my sister was a home care nurse she took care of a woman in her 30's with terminal cancer (a really nice woman, according to my sister.) She had had huge implants. My sister said it really became grotesque - she wasted away and there were these big hard boobs attached to a skeleton body.

I dont see how. She's got tons of friends, does lots of charity work and donations, and I've never heard anyone complain that she was difficult.
When I was in HS, there was a pretty cheerleader that I assumed was stuck up. She would say hello to me which sort of intimidated me. She got my name wrong and I never corrected her. For the next 3 years she said hello to me every time I saw her. At first I thought it was funny but then I started feeling bad but felt too stupid to go up to her and tell her the truth. Right before graduation somebody told her and she confronted me, asked me why I did it, started crying and ran off. Never saw her again. 30 years later I still feel like a jerk.

Not that I'm aware of, lol. I used to hang out at a certain establishment that was also frequented by her parents (who incidentally are as nice as can be) around the time that she was first hitting it big and passed by her at the door as I was coming in with some friends and she was coming out (and who some of these guys were makes it even more amusing). We said, "Hey Taylor, how's it going?" Her response was to look at us like we were turds in a punchbowl, flip her nose up and away, and stride off toward the parking lot.
Among the guys I was with were a well-known steel guitar player, the son of a legendary steel guitar player who is himself well known in the music industry in the tour support side, and the great nephew of a no shit country music god. Needless to say, she didn't leave a good impression on any of us.

Mythbusters fired a revolver in a vacuum chamber to see what happened. You can find it with a search. I assume they fired the bullet into some ballistic gelatin or something, because you wouldn't want a bullet hitting the walls of your vacuum chamber.
It worked just fine. However what was cool was there was a visible wave, bouncing of the gases coming out of the barrel. You could see with slow motion film. The mass of gas, while expanding, has a net forward momentum. It hit the side of the chamber, then visibly bounces back and oscillates a bit in the chamber.
The gase stay brighter and visible longer as it does the bouncing in vacuum, and this because there's no cooler mass of air around to cool it down quickly.

3. When the professional investigators won't go along with the fix, have your staff of radical leftist lawyers cook up bogus statistics about racist parking tickets or something and coerce a consent decree.

Yup. Great video. "Karen from Accounting" steps up to the mic and whoa. Another good one in the same vein: When Adele wasn't Adele. She gets made up to be unrecognizable and goes undercover in a competition of Adele impersonators. One particularly appealing Adele impersonator has a full-body epiphany as the real Adele starts to sing and figures out it's really her.

Add a hard vacuum on the surface, and this makes some amazingly long shots possible with small arms of the surface of the Moon. Absolutely no air resistance, and the projectile does not loose tangential velocity and will hit a target with roughly the same speed as it left the barrel. Roughly speaking.
Bullet trajectories would be partial orbital trajectories, especially aiming at a high angle.
The Moon's gravity is lumpy, deviating from spherical significantly, and that would make such low orbits very chaotic of course over any significant time period (making a few loops, if you managed it).
It would be a long-range shooting paradise.

Because its "tweaked", its not THC, but produces similar effects on users. Therefore in many states, its not illegal for sale/consumption. Its also not regulated by any G agency to maintain any type of quality control.
People buy an "analog" powder in bulk from overseas, mix it up in a spray bottle with acetone, and spray it on a "legal" herbal incense. Repeat, package and sell.
The profit margin is unreal.
WV produced the most comprehensive piece of legislation I've ever seen banning this shit. Its been quite effective.

I've noticed that she doesn't seem to show up at the country music awards shows like she used to do.
I'm guessing that either she doesn't go because she isn't nominated, or she feels she is "bigger" than country music, or the country music industry just doesn't give a shit about her any more.
Whatever the reasons, when she starts her fall in a couple of years, it will be interesting to see if she goes back to country.

Turns out for a typical rifle, you'd get well over halfway around the Moon, maximum range on the surface would be fall short of a complete circumnagivation by roughly 2000km.
That's ballistic. Now, you could really do some tricks with small "second stage" on the bullet, allowing you to make course corrections in flight. It would apparently be a small pain to gain factor. So you make a projectile with a little rocket motor on it and you could easily make a full orbit.
So imagine you're a top target shooter on the Moon. Well over a whole hemisphere would be in your range.

Assuming you knew where your target was. The horizon on the Moon is mighty close. It would more like solving an artillery problem than solving a rifle problem. But if you missed, your target would never know he was being shot at, unless he had radar going which could "see" approaching bullets.

I can't drink coffee anymore without having a panic attack. I used to drink three pots a day in "The Tanning Salon Days".
I love coffee. I love the pastries that I have enjoyed with my coffee.
This has been slowly realized over the past six months.
Doses of caffeine, even slowly sipped, are a direct route to a panic attack. I cannot even drink more than 1/2 of a Pepsi without feeling like I'm having heart-attack.

-Numbness/tingles in fingers and nose
-Loss of balance
-Loss of peripheral vision, (tunnel-vision)

The bullet would fly in a straight line, since the only constraint upon its motion is the Moon's gravity. But parallels of latitude, equator excepted, are not straight lines. Think of the limiting case. You are standing 3 feet south of the North Pole, facing west. You fire your rifle. Is the bullet going to wheel around in a circle of 3-foot radius, and hit you in the back? No, it's going to fly in a great circle tangent to the 89.999th parallel.

The thing is the Moon's gravity deviates from spherical enough to be chaotic, especially for low orbits.
Now, what you'd do, is make a smart projectile, something with it's own rocket motors and some quantity of fuel, allowing it to make course corrections in flight. On the Moon, it would be possible for artillery to hit any point on the surface from any other point. "Guns" fired from the surface able to hit any point on the surface. That is easily doable on the Moon.

Of course the Moon has mountains, and lots of them. Probably only from the top of one of the higher peaks could you fire a shot horizontally, and have it come round and hit you in the back. (which I think was the scenario in that SF story I alluded to earlier tonight)
You could be down in the middle of one of the big craters, and not even see the crater walls, because they are below your horizon, fire your gun, and the bullet would splash into the crater wall.
Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at July 13, 2016 01:36 AM (GSdpU)
You can make any point the "pole" of a perfect sphere. You can see there are an infinite number of great circles through that point, in all directions tangent to the surface.
Now, add rotation of the sphere, that makes things more complicated, of course, but just a little more math.
And yes, Virginia the Moon is rotating (in absolute inertial space, it's just in tidal lock, one rotation per orbit keeping the same face to the earth).
If you are less than orbital velocity, then you're not going to make a nice circle, but various ellipses. Now, you do the math with the elevation angle and find how far downrage, along the surface, you can get with what your muzzle velocity is.

It would make the round trip, but not along the parallel of latitude. It would fly on a great circle tangent to the starting parallel and its counterpart in the opposite hemisphere.
Neglecting mountains and gravity anomalies, of course.

Panic attacks are a pain in the ass. The first one, you think you are going to die. The next one, you hope you will die. The third one, you go to the doctor, who tells you to take it easy, get lots of rest and exercise. Which I would do, if I wan't having a panic attack.
Yes, there are meds for this, but whatever you do, do not take Xanax. That shit is horrid, gets you hooked, and you jones every four hours.
Honestly, I have found the best way to cope is to talk it out with a professional, find coping strategies (such as control your breathing, meditate, consciously progressively relax), and then go get a runner's high every day (or whatever exercise you think will work for you). Drugs cover, and often make you stupid or worse.
If you get the full "fight or flight" response, then maybe start on a drug regimen and once you have control, back off of it. Always supervised.

Your target is hiding in a crater. You get your smart projectile coming close to that crater, and fire your rockets on the thing to make a finally fast trajectory straight down inside that crater.
You've give your projectile most of its velocity from the "gun" (or first stage) fired from the ground, with the onboard rockets requiring very little additional fuel to do this, compared to the ummphh you give it originally.

"So, the left has hit on a hot new solution to supposed systemic racist brutality from American police departments: disband the police."
(http://www.dailywire.com/news/7404/ some-black-lives-matter-activists-want-abolish-ben-shapiro )
Uh, Earth to Ben Shapiro? "Disbanding the police" so as to enable a violent overthrow of the government has been the OVERT goal of communists and Black Nationalists since the 1960s. This isn't news. The only thing "new" about it is that many of the extreme-left revolutionaries are now in control of the media and its narrative; in the past, they had to struggle to get their "Police are evil, we must disband all police forces" message out of academia and party meetings and into America's living room. Now, what with the complete and total Marxist takeover of the entire media system, that longstanding narrative is discussed soberly and sagely as if is were reasonable and inevitable.
Redneck-Americans, I warn you thus:
Stock up on firearms and ammunition. Because the Left's "Helter Skelter" race war is looming closer than ever before. In the '60s and '70s it was just a pipe dream. Now, it's in the Five Year Plan.

Oh, he thought about it ahead of time. He knew the plane's capabilities better than the crew did. And I would not rule out the possibility that, in addition to the parachutes and money, he demanded boots, a good coat, gloves, etc., as part of the ransom. The stewardess testified he was picking out landmarks from the plane circling Seattle, so it's quite possible he had a jump target in mind. I'm pretty sure he made it to the ground alive.

Two people in my immediate family have been experiencing panic attacks for decades. One of them is...my mother, who had extreme, severe attacks all through my childhood. That's bad enough, but imagine the situation where you're the kid and your mom is a single parent -- so there's no backup parent to take over when the panic attack happens.
Man, me and my older sibling went through some hair-raising times, but it was actually worse for me, because sibling moved out as soon as possible so I had to cope with panic-mom all the freakin' time.
Combine the panic attacks with other psych issues and whew! my childhood was a helluva ride -- and not the fun kind.
The amazing thing (also not the fun kind of amazing) is that my mother is still alive and STILL has panic attacks to this day, several times per week. That's over six decades of panic attacks, with no sign of letting up.
She's now on a boatload of powerful psych meds, but they do absolutely zilch to quell the attacks.
Well, that's not entirely true -- there is one pill she takes which does calm her down: Ativan (Lorazepam). But it just knocks her out for a few hours, and when the pill wears off -- the panic attack returns. So it doesn't solve the problem -- just makes the attack last longer. Sigh.
HOWEVER, this report is not all grim. For another person in my immediate family also had panic attacks for years, but (crosses fingers) has really seemed to conquer them naturally, with no drugs.
The conclusion reached was that the panic attacks are an after-effect of severe long-agao trauma, and that the panic is actually just classic PTSD, in the WWI sense of "shell shock," where the mere sound of a backfiring car or something that sounds like an incoming missile would send the soldier into paralytic fear or spasmodic convulsions.
So the solution to panic attacks, we have concluded, in a massive dose of introspection, self-therapy, to identify and then get to the root of whatever long-ago trauma that caused your PTSD.
And another key thing: We now know that life-altering "trauma" need not entail German mustard gas or being gang-raped by a herd of buffalo, but can be anything, no matter how trivial and unimportant to the outside world, which was traumatic to you. A mocking sneer by a playground bully can be traumatic to someone who is emotionally fragile. An unloving parent. Unfair favoritism. Anything.

If you drop it straight down, it will hit the center, but imagine the center doesn't interact and the particle passes right through. It will fall straight down, reach the other side at the exact radius you dropped it, then fall back and come back to you with exactly zero velocity. Every other path less than escape will come back to you at the exact same velocity vector it had when you threw it.
That straight line bounce back is the limiting case of a set of ellipses less than circular orbital speed tangent to the field. Give a little tangential velocity and it makes a long skinny ellipse.
Give it greater than circular orbital speed, and you make another set of ellipses flying by you sideways. Until you give enough to escape, and then the path is an open hyperbola (or parabola in a special case).
The trouble with a planet, is the surface intersects those little ellipses you make close to the surface in all cases less than circular orbital speed.
You can see if you want to make an orbit that does not come near the surface from an object launched from the surface, a "ballistic path" is not possible. You've got to have a rocket motor to be able to make course corrections in mid-flight.

Isn't theoretically possible to have a gun or cannon powerful enough to shoot a projectile so far that it goes "over the horizon" and if the planet is small enough and/or the cannon is strong enough that the projectile would then circle then entire planet and whiz by your head coming from 'round the back, and thereby "orbit" the planet a few times before the energy gives out, the orbit degrades, and it finally hits the ground?
Why would that not be possible? (Especially on a planet or moon with no atmosphere.)

Just as a weird brainstorm -- let's say you had a ferrous planetoid with a substantial rate of spin, such that its magnetic field were equal, or maybe a little more powerful, than its gravity. You could put things into small orbits -- say 20 feet above the surface; but if your orbit went 200 meters above the surface, it would encounter the interaction of solar wind with the magnetic field....

v = sqrt(g*r). For the earth, the radius is ~6400km, and g is 9.8 m/s^2.
so v^2 = 9.8*6400*1000, and the square root of that is ~7920 m/s. That's about 24,000 ft/s. That's roughly 17,600 mph.
Note LEO speed at 100 miles or so is very close to this as the radius doesn't change much, just adding 100 miles.

On the Moon, circular orbital speed is much lower, an typical high speed rifle muzzle velocities are a good fraction of it, and since it's a vacuum, it makes things interesting

There's enough ions passing around up there that a circuit would be completed and a current would flow. Only problem was the current was much, much greater than calculated and destroyed the tether.
The trouble was the insulation on it. It started outgassing in the vacuum and made a much denser conducting medium around the tether than they planned on.

The field strength near these things is beyond anything we can imagine. It would distort the shape of atoms to long thin needles, making the electron orbitals go crazy elongated. Your body electrochemistry would cease to function normally in such a strong field. No normal chemistry would work anything like it normally does.
Note that when the electric field gets strong enough in vacuum, a quantum effect kicks in that tends to reduce it. Damn pair production of electron-positron pairs right out of the vacuum from the strength of the field. This limits the strength of an electric field possible in vacuum, dubbed "vacuum polarization".
A magnetic field will do similiar. You make think it would pull monopoles out of the vacuum, but nope, before then, it would pull shit out that makes opposing current loops which reduce the field.
The field of a magnetars is approaching this.
For a normal field of a neutron star, the B field would be strong enough, that at the distance of the Moon, it would rip any ferrous metal out of your hand. You couldn't hold on to it.
And this is amazing. It's a dipole thing, and *gradients* the field, going inverse cube, hell inverse fourth, since a dipole field is inverse cube anyway.
Anyway, these things have some Strong Magnetic Fields, indeed.

Posted by: Pickles at July 13, 2016 03:17 AM (+wjl1)
Such a magnetic field is incomprehensible to us. It starts doing crazy quantum shit to light, photons interacting with the field.
Now remember that current out of the vacuum limiting field strength? That's theorized to occur at 10^16 T. The damn vacuum would become a superconductor, virtual particles becoming "real" and making current loops to limit the field.
I don't think there's any physical process known that can produce a B field that high, though. Anything would fly apart from the magnetic forces before it could generate anything that high.
Now, if you were suddenly immersed in a 10^11 T field, you would instantly become dust. Every atom in your body would become a long thin needle shape, and you would just disintegrate.

When talking about ballistics, the Coriolis Effect refers to the deflection on the trajectory of the bullet generated by the spinning motion of the Earth. Its effect is negligible at medium distances, but becomes important around 1000yds and beyond, especially because it can add to other minimal errors and keep you off target.
On the Moon, of course (I think), this wouldn't matter. No spin. But a firearm on a spinning space station WOULD need to compensate for the Effect.

Posted by: redc1c4 at July 13, 2016 04:05 AM (YRstE)
What you do for long range shit is you do it in a non-rotating frame, because the equations of motion get rather messy in a Coriolis frame. For short range little stuff, you simplify thing and come up with some simple correction terms. But for very long range stuff, they get very messy.
So, if you launch something from point A on a rotating surface, you do the trajectory calculations in a non-spinning inertial frame centered on the planet. Your target is thus moving as well, going around in a little circle. You solve your trajectory to intersect with that target's circle.

Good Morning Morons. Today is Wednesday, July 13, 2016. On this day in 1863 in New York City, opponents of the draft and the war with the South began three days of rioting which were regarded as the worst in United States history. NYC had strong economic ties to the South and was opposed to what they called Lincoln's war. And this was compounded by an unfair draft that allowed rich people to buy themselves out of the draft.

A little zinc will not hurt cast bullets.

Use to be you could walk along the side of the road and harvest the lead. These days not so much.

Serious question: Can a Clinton even utter a truthful statement? Is that even possible?

A Nashville officer changed his Facebook profile picture to the iconic photo of Black Panther National Chairman Bobby Seale and Huey Newton holding a Colt .45 and a shotgun in Oakland, California. He claimed he posted the photo out of "strong historical interests."He was relieved of duty pending an internal investigation. He was identified as Christopher Taylor.

What's to ponder? He'll do it. The military brass will obey. The GOPe will hold hearings that accomplish nothing. The MSM will crow about how great this is. And one day someone will nuke one of our cities and we'll find we can't launch a single bird.

I'd like to play with flowing lead (like solder) around a spinning tungsten steel core at home. See if I can get the balance right using a dremel or other common tool.

Let her talk all she wants. All it means is that she'll have to recuse herself from any supreme court decision involving Donald Trump, President.
4-3 is the new black.

People have been complaining about Trump not being out there enough or running enough ads. I think him being low-key is helping right now. Hillary is in the news for all of the wrong reasons. And running political ads this early really doesn't accomplish much. Romney got hurt because Obama defined who he was. Does anyone think that Trump really isn't a known quantity already to almost everyone?

Oh, c'mon. Ginsburg's not going to recuse herself from anything. Teh roolz don't apply to Dems.

80%. That's an amazing number: I'd say that is a settled issue.

Florida and Pennsylvania are birds of a feather. If Trump is +5 in Florida, Pennsylvania is quite doable.
Perhaps the democrats running an unconvicted felon with vagina isn't the smartest move.

Doesn't matter. She'll be leaving soon no matter who wins, and there's no way Gaylord will pick. The only difference is if she stays there til she's dead or retires a little earlier.
It'd be nice if the last words she ever hears were 'Trump Wins!'

Breitbart has an interesting article on this. The writer says she'll have to.
