Oct 2016

let people and the media get this out of their overreactionary system, by tuesday it will not be the lead story, then dump the ultimate oppo against trump on wednesday or thursday and let it be the dominant story heading into the final weekend.

i really don't want to get my hopes up on this but with it being trump i just know there's some insane clusterF waiting to emerge lol it's just a matter of whether the clinton people have it in their possession. i have a couple of theories about what this might be but we'll just have to wait and see.

wilson added tonight on twitter in reply to brian stelter that "we're not even close to the final surprise" and "the last weekend is going to be bonkers". this is in line with what he posted on wednesday "You guys, you know the BEST October surprises come the LAST weekend. But given there are SO many to be had..." i don't think that him and mair are both bluffing because it could really hurt their credibility moving forward as it pertains to this sorta stuff it seems like it's just about whether the clinton people also know any of this or if whoever does have it comes forward with it. we'll know soon enough if there is any fire to this smoke.
