Let me tell you about true luxury.

Of course it's only major non-US papers picking up the story on Trump and Cuba (Guardian, BBC, German and Asian newspapers).

this is such a weird game Trump is trying to play here. He's trying to spin it as if Clinton TRIED to get Obama to release his birth certificate and just couldn't, so Trump had to step in and finish the job.

It's, like, a giant made up story in Trump's head, and it's so unbelievable. Even his surrogates aren't pushing this narrative because it makes no sense

Trump ignores advice and launches Bill Clinton attack


I love how the whole tone of the article is "jesus christ, he's actually going to do this."

If this comes out in the next debate, does Hillary have a list of mistresses she can call on and a prepared video accusing him of infidelity? It seems to me that from his behaviour and mannerisms Trump would have a giant list of attempted infidelities that no one is talking about it (yet), seems like something Hillary would save up to use.

self-deprecation is a very british trait, and problems can arise when the british attempt to do so with a foreign culture

So with all this talk about Trump recruiting "poll watchers," I had no idea that Hillary is doing it as well. One huge difference: Hillary is reaching out directly to lawyers and law students while Trump is asking for anyone and everyone.

Seems they want people with actual legal expertise/basic knowledge to support voters that get challenged.

edit: source is my father (a lawyer) that was contacted by Hillary's campaign via email blast

It's a common thing that happens ever election

Don't forget Hitler's contributions to medicine.
I love that a man on his third wife who has bragged about multiple affairs thinks he has a winning issue with the Hillary being cheated on and deciding to stay married to the man she has been with for 40 years.

Like most things I don't think Trump has thought this through. In fact I am pretty sure the only reason he is making a big deal out of not bringing it up is his advisors and pollsters have begged him not to.

he knows he lost the debate, but he knows that he's a winner. so he's constructed a narrative in his head to protect his ego: he only lost because he held back, chose not to go there and mention bill and embarrass her. but he knows could have. and he sincerely believes it now.

Actually, he knows he won now, which is why he's mad at all his surrogates for saying that he didn't win, because Trump is literally Cartman and anything that makes him look bad cannot be real and he constructs his own reality in response.

You can actually see that happen in real time here

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHPEtv2rKOU

He accepts the quote for the first few seconds. He repeats "She doesn't have the look, she doesn't have... the stamina. I said she doesn't have the stamina" and then he goes on to pretend that he never said look and he only said stamina. Like, he's got mental issues. He literally does not accept that he said "look" by the end of his own answer.

remember, impeachment doesn't not mean found guilty or removed from office, just that they are charged with certain crimes by the house

e: or was that sarcastic or something? it's a pretty dumb word, at least now, since you think impeached means removed :v:

He was! :eng101: Impeachment is the essentially a grand jury (the US House in the case) saying "We have enough evidence to go to trial". The Senate then acts as the jury.

Reminder that Trump's first wife, Ivana, was granted a divorce from him on the grounds of "cruel and inhuman treatment" the proceedings of which included a deposition from her that included a description of a time when Trump raped her.
