It goes without saying, but "you can't make this stuff up"

Crazy Eddie & Jesus the Kid (Raymond Cummings), Friday, 7 October 2016 18:34 (seven years ago) link

same thing

not really, since registering as Democrats means they could have voted previously in Democratic primaries and general elections and the implication that was being put forward was that no one in the Trump family votes

¶ (DJP), Friday, 7 October 2016 18:43 (seven years ago) link

I can imagine Trump himself never bothering to vote, given his name was never on the ballot until now

frogbs, Friday, 7 October 2016 18:45 (seven years ago) link

I said they couldnt vote in the primary.

Not registering correctly just broadly indicative of family's general lack of engagement w political process, which is all i was getting at.

I saw a video earlier this year from the early 00s of some TV crew following Trump around Manhattan as he tries to find his polling place, getting lost, then frustrated when he keeps showing up at the wrong spots lol

Hialeah consists of Cubans in my grandmother's generation who are in their decrepitude or, like Abuela, nostalgic about la patria. However, the men and women twenty to thirty years her juniors, like the woman who takes care of her, have been traveling back and forth from Cuba to the United States in the last six years and are horrified by Trump.

uh oh: U.S. officially accuses Russia of conducting hacking campaign to influence 2016 elections

Οὖτις, Friday, 7 October 2016 19:33 (seven years ago) link

is this why russia allegedly warned people that the US was going to launch a nuclear attack against them? I only saw that on FB so I take it with a grain of salt (or SALT II).

akm, Friday, 7 October 2016 19:39 (seven years ago) link

The Obama administration on Friday officially accused Russia of carrying out a wide-ranging campaign to interfere with the 2016 elections, including by hacking the computers of the Democratic National Committee and other political officials.

The denunciation, made by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the Department of Homeland Security, came as pressure was growing from within the administration and some lawmakers to hold Moscow accountable for a set of actions apparently aimed at sowing discord around the election.

Trump is human garbage.

truly and completely. this really is a new low.

goole, Friday, 7 October 2016 20:12 (seven years ago) link

At this point, I'm just contenting myself with the likelihood that, unless he dies really soon after the election, the rest of Trump's life is going to be pretty negatively affected by shit he stirred up while running for POTUS. Maybe he'll even go to jail!

The Butthole, The Whole Butthole, and Nothing But The Butthole (Old Lunch), Friday, 7 October 2016 20:16 (seven years ago) link

yeah I'm assuming he spends from Nov. 9th to the day he dies in court. he'll never go to jail though (unfortunately)

some of law enforcement were acting the same way after they were released. "well ok their DNA wasn't found but they were acting in cahoots with the guy whose DNA it was".

Trump will be the first President who acts on tips from Weekly World News

Neanderthal, Friday, 7 October 2016 20:18 (seven years ago) link

more garbage every day:

Donald Trump bragged in vulgar terms about kissing, groping and trying to have sex with women during a 2005 conversation caught on a hot microphone — saying that “when you’re a star, they let you do it” — according to a video obtained by The Washington Post.

The video captures Trump talking with Billy Bush of “Access Hollywood” on a bus with Access Hollywood written across the side. They were arriving on the set of “Days of Our Lives” to tape a segment about Trump’s upcoming cameo on the soap opera.

The tape obtained by the Post includes audio of Bush and Trump’s conversation inside the bus, as well as audio and video once they emerge from it to begin shooting the segment.

In that audio, Trump discusses a failed attempt to seduce a woman, whose full name is not given in the video.

“I moved on her and I failed. I’ll admit it,” Trump is heard saying. It was unclear when the events he was describing took place. The tape was recorded several months after he married his third wife, Melania.

“Whoa,” another voice said.

“I did try and f--- her. She was married,” Trump says.

Trump continues: “And I moved on her very heavily. In fact, I took her out furniture shopping. She wanted to get some furniture. I said, ‘I’ll show you where they have some nice furniture.’”

“I moved on her like a bitch, but I couldn’t get there. And she was married,” Trump says. “Then all of a sudden I see her, she’s now got the big phony tits and everything. She’s totally changed her look.”

At that point in the audio, Trump and Bush appear to notice Arianne Zucker, the actress who is waiting to escort them into the soap opera set.

“Your girl’s hot as s---, in the purple,” says Bush, who’s now a co-host of NBC’s “Today” show.

“Whoa!” Trump says. “Whoa!”

“I’ve gotta use some tic tacs, just in case I start kissing her,” Trump says.“You know I’m automatically attracted to beautiful -- I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait.”

“And when you’re a star they let you do it,” Trump says. “You can do anything.”

According to Yusef Salaam, Trump "was the fire starter", as "common citizens were being manipulated and swayed into believing that we were guilty." Salaam and his family received death threats after papers ran Trump's full-page ad

If he even tries to bring up Bill's indiscretions all Hillary has to do is say "my husband isn't running for President, I am" and then some blatant pot/kettle/black schtick

She could also say "my husband was a Rhodes Scholar and you had to legacy your way into Penn" but that might lose everyone but the Ivy vote

Trump brought up Big Dog because Trump knows that the vast majority of men who have ever been on a golf course have had some form of locker room talk.

Brevs Mekis (dandydonweiner), Friday, 7 October 2016 20:33 (seven years ago) link

can't wait for the bloodless lace curtain NYT style tiptoeing around this one

goole, Friday, 7 October 2016 20:34 (seven years ago) link

shouldn't it be called golf course talk then

Οὖτις, Friday, 7 October 2016 20:34 (seven years ago) link

kinda wonder how much cable and broadcast are going to replay here too

goole, Friday, 7 October 2016 20:35 (seven years ago) link

you know the typical golf course rapey conversations every man has

Neanderthal, Friday, 7 October 2016 20:35 (seven years ago) link

"majority of men who have ever been on a golf course" trump has this demo in the bag already!

goole, Friday, 7 October 2016 20:35 (seven years ago) link

One reason I never took to golf was because I found it boring. Apparently a bunch of dudes find it so boring that they feel they have to spice it up by talking shit about women.

IMO play a sport where you don't have time to even think about that shit; you think dudes are coming down the home stretch in the 400m comparing vagina conquest stories?

¶ (DJP), Friday, 7 October 2016 20:35 (seven years ago) link

Right. Sll the rapey people already know who Trump is and 40% still don't care.

Brevs Mekis (dandydonweiner), Friday, 7 October 2016 20:36 (seven years ago) link

no this is the one that does it. anything after this is just running up the score (which i hope they do, to stop people like this trying this again). it's such a simple, visceral story. all the tax/fraud stuff is complicated. this is the one where he actually loses people currently planning to vote for him, rather than turns off undecided people.
