I've had people say it's a hardening, actually ~ US presidential election 2016 part 9/11 never forget

and the national conversation

there was a lot of tawdry imagery w/the clinton shit but for most people i don't think it resonated as a wider indictment of his views on women (which it probably was in a lot of ways tbh) and also it was a lot of testifying and secondhand conversations being reported and courtroom shit, i think this is different though it being on tape. clinton's public persona throughout his entire slimy period was still fairly "dignified", as much as that persona was probably false. he remained "presidential". trump sounds like a high schooler amazed at what being on the football team does for his game.

STATEMENT FROM DONALD J. TRUMP

***

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

how long before Trumplings start wearing "GRAB THEM BY THE PUSSY" hats

also fuck any newspaper that doesn't print the words here. the whole point is the words.

reminds me of when WaPo printed the F-word when Cheney told someone on the floor of congress to "Go fuck yourself"

Kool Thing cover by Donald Trump

When you're a star, you can just grab em by the pussy
Now you know you're sure lookin' pretty
Rock the beat just a little faster
Now I know you are the master
I don't wanna, I don't think so
big phony tits

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.’”

This sort of works in a Derek & Clive voice.

ah so this is the news that finally knocks Hurricane Matthew off the cable airwaves!

I worry about what Trump considers "nice furniture"

is that a euphemism

you might say I'm rapey
but I'm not the only one
Bill said worse shit on the golf course
we was only havin fun

In an exclusive interview with The Brody File, GOP vice presidential nominee Mike Pence says he believes Donald Trump's rise is all part of God's larger plan of divine providence for America.

"I believe in providence for the course of this nation but I think what animates Donald Trump is faith in God and faith in the American people," Pence tells The Brody File.

Is that the first time in this whole mess that Trump has actually even half apologized?

You know how you (and Trump) know Trump's goose is cooked? That statement he issued actually ACTUALLY included the words 'I apologize'.

lmao

and yes btw this is the first time trump has said "i apologize" but obv it has to be accompanied by "if anyone was offended"

that was an awfully fast statement too. I think it was there by the time I finished reading the actual breaking story.

I saw the statement before I knew the story!

idk caek, i think this is just running up the score. not really up there with the most insane things he's done/said this past year and a half. i think he got his greatest hits out early - when he said "john mccain isn't a war hero because he was captured," and his numbers went up, i knew he would be the nominee. when was that, july 2015? runner up is obviously imitating the reporter with cerebral palsy

in tangentially-related news:

I have to say, the WaPo are really earning their stripes this election. Mealy-mouthed as their editorial page may be, when the chips are down those guys deliver.

Nobody was paying attention then, basically. Or, only GOP primary voters were, a tiny slice of the electorate.

“I’ve gotta use some tic tacs, just in case I start kissing her"

100% a virgin

idk caek, i think this is just running up the score. not really up there with the most insane things he's done/said this past year and a half.

yeah but feel like there's something visceral abt this that's gonna be hard for him to shake

harder to shake when you have a handful of no I cannot in good conscience finish this joke, sorry everyone

xp yep. this is a simple, visceral story. even fox news will go with this one. it's box office, as bertie wooster used to say.

what makes it harder for him to shake is that he's going to get nailed for it in the debate, which will prolong its press coverage through several news cycles (ie, until his next horrible thing gets spotlighted)

that never happened in the primaries. he said shit and it vanished. now it's not vanishing.

xp

lmao DJP

mmm i don't know about that, i think this recording speaks to everything everyone's been saying about trump over the past several weeks and amplifies it 10x. the mccain comment was awful but also many republicans don't regard him as highly after 2008. the reporter thing was a minor ripple unfortunately.

xxxposts

lol nomar

it is obv just another drop in the trump cesspool but i think a few things matter:

1) that it's on tape, very clear recording,, accompanied by that nice little video of him making the comments and then interacting w/ this woman immediately after the bus, which i think personalizes it in a way that's different than just him on howard stern 15 years ago or something
2) it's october and this is a fresh story that fits an already assembled narrative
3) won't change the trump die-hards but we all knew that nothing would change them, it's all about women + undecideds having more & more reasons not to vote for him

how desperate do you think Roger Stone's phone calls to Julian Assange are getting these days

wonder if speaker ryan will be campaigning with trump tomorrow

'i strongly condemn grabbing women by the pussy, but those taxes won't lower themselves'

Genuinely curious how this will impact Billy Bush. I've hated that smirking fuckbag for years, so if this gets him knocked off the Today Show, great.

mmm i don't know about that, i think this recording speaks to everything everyone's been saying about trump over the past several weeks and amplifies it 10x.

agree

lol mookie

loool
