Trump hits "globalists" at WH event after call for unity in wake of bomb-scare suspects arrested. Several audience members shout out "George Soros" and others shout "lock 'em up." Trump chuckles, points and repeats "lock 'em up."

Wow. From new NPR/PBS/Marist poll:

Would you rather reduce the deficit by reversing last year's tax cut or cutting entitlement spending?

Among Republicans:
43% reverse tax cut
32% cut entitlements
24% unsure

Trump walks into the black conservatives' event. They cheer and shout and wave their red hats.

Predictably, @FoxNews refuses to show details of the stickers on the van, and refuses to describe them as anything other than “political messages.”

'All The Incendiary Garbage Fox News Has Broadcast About George Soros Since April.
At Fox News, Soros is treated as the Moriarty of liberal America, the spider at the center of a vast web.'

Her show was apparently 'ratings-challenged' in any case.

No surprises with regard to the suspect, even down to the domestic violence accusation.

He was kept on because he did his work reliably and good drivers are hard to find, she said. But he disturbed his co-workers with racist comments and texts.

Based on Wray’s remarks, the FBI had identified Sayoc by late last night. Surely they briefed the WH immediately. Might explain Trump’s losing it on Twitter at 3:14 am.

I just asked @realDonaldTrump if he would pledge to tone down his rhetoric over the next few days ahead of the midterms. His answer: no.

Texas election officials confirmed that voting machines used in 30% of its counties (including its biggest) are switching people’s votes, including the Senate race between Ted Cruz and Beto O’Rourke. The GOP-appointed officials say they have "no legal authority" to update them. twitter.com/ajplus/status/1055912575093792768/photo/1

Sorry, Trumpies, this was no false-flag leftie or Unabomber in the woods. He is Trumpism uncut and unplugged. Deal with it.'
