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

Was this broken by Fahrenthold? Man, give that guy a bonus. We should send him a fruit basket.

Imagine you’re a doctor, but every night someone comes into your hospital and stabs everyone. That’s how GOP volunteers must feel this year.

xpost they'll use the "changed man" defense.

Trump found God and he swiffered away the rape and replaced it with a miraculous tax plan and if you don't vote for him you hate God

lolol

Clinton's history proves that Democrats would defend Trump if he was their guy.

It doesn't mean we should.

I love the one-sentence second paragraph.

@baseballcrank @KatiePavlich I'm not ok with an even more liberal scotus because you two are offended by what guys say when women are gone

yes, farenthold

hey has anybody checked w/ Arpaio for his take think that's all that's missing here

what can u feel about such a person really

something between pity and murderous rage?

xp

btw i can't be the only person loling that these commentators, all men, think suburban women would be more offended by this tweet than anybody else.

Just catching up. Is this guaranteed to come up Sunday night, or will Clinton balk at how ugly that could get? I think Trump would literally say anything if cornered on this.

she's going to eviscerate him on this, are you kidding

or maybe just grab him by the nuts, who knows

Victims of sexual assault deserve full protection under the law. And now, they will have it.

*Ryan grabs Trump by scruff of neck, holds him under water*

'don't resist.'

you guys. the banner pic on Ryan's page where he's being mobbed by black children.

what the hell

something between pity and murderous rage

they're just big fans of Eddie Munster

xp

she's going to eviscerate him on this, are you kidding

Does she need to, though? The press will take care of that.

ppl who claim this is how men talk i've been involved in plenty of raunchy conversations in my lifetime if a man spoke like this in front of me i would never speak to him again

I think Trump would literally say anything if cornered on this.

oh totally, his defense on this will 100% be "bill said/did worse shit"

there's a readymade response to that (which I posted upthread)

she should just work the word "tic tacs" into a completely unrelated sentence and watch as he reacts in typical fashion. minimal effort needed.

I am mightily resisting the temptation to repost "right wingin' bitter clingin' PROUD clingers" in this new context

ppl who claim this is how men talk i've been involved in plenty of raunchy conversations in my lifetime if a man spoke like this in front of me i would never speak to him again

yeah c'mon, these are people to avoid. I dunno any guys that talk like this.

he's totally going to play the "ad hominem tu quoque" route, liberals are hypocrites cos we let Clinton 'off the hook' and are offended by this now.

Does she need to, though? The press will take care of that.

being a successful politician means always pressing your advantage

there's a readymade response to that (which I posted upthread)

yea hillary has been prepping for trump to mention the whole campaign prob, pretty easy to deflect and there aren't many scenarios in which trump doesn't look like an asshole for bringing it up

She spent the summer deliberately generating as little news as possible to maximize the impact of all this noise, she's going to go personally and directly after him on this and I applaud it

i've only met a couple people that actually talked like this, behind closed doors or not, and both of them were during high school, and both of them threatened physical violence against me at some point

(xposts)That's what I'm thinking--during a presidential debate, he'll start quoting verbatim the stuff he claims Bill has said to him on the golf course. Things would get extremely ugly. I'm not sure that Clinton needs to go down that road; Trump is in for a week of pure hell regardless.

Probably a moot point he's so far behind now.

Daniel Foster‏ @DanFosterType
I’ll say it again: Every Trump quote sounds better if you imagine it delivered by a petty criminal in a tracksuit with a Balkan accent.

thing is, we scoff here at that kinda talk on the golf cart, but there are plenty of men (across the entire political sphere) that say things like that in private.

doesn't make it right, but you may be surprised how many people will earnestly defend this shit.

*course

he'll start quoting verbatim the stuff he claims Bill has said to him on the golf course. Things would get extremely ugly.

lol this would be near-suicidal for him. Kinda hope he does do it!

That statement manages to cram two red herrings, a tu quoque, and an "I apologize if you were offended" into three lines.

a) it looks desperate, b) it isn't ON TAPE/objectively verifiable, c) it automatically generates sympathy for Hillary, d) it's more horrible shit coming out of Trump's mouth

xp

He should quote some of the shit Hannity says to him in private. Because come on, every talks like this, what's the big deal?

"Hannity told me I have the biggest balls"

(xpost) It wouldn't help Trump, no, not at all. But would HRC want that stuff said, if she thinks Trump's liable to say it? It is her husband.

xp to Neanderthal and it may not lose him any votes with those fuckheads, but it'll lose him votes with EVERYONE else.

I don't think Hillary should be losing any sleep over how this affects Bill.

lol nytimes story doesn't even mention the "grab them by the ---" line

are you seriously worrying about Hillary's feewings being hurt by some dumb bullshit coming out of a desperate, flailing Trump's mouth

xp

pretty sure there's nothing Bill has said about women that Hillary hasn't heard already.

"Bill said he liked having his balls licked, but that he liked to douse them in olive oil first--"
'Trump'
"No Anderson, this is important...."

*Mr Trump

lol nytimes story doesn't even mention the "grab them by the ---" line

The recording could prove damaging to his efforts to seem presidential

they could, they're just not sure yet
