I think it's a legal thing. Even though everyone knows it's sexual assault, it'd still open them up to liability.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

It might come up in the debate tomorrow. It's legitimate to be concerned about how Trump treats women, how a Trump administration would affect policy towards women, and how the general atmosphere at the White House would affect women. Especially in light of stuff like punishing women for abortion, Alicia Machado, and the Pussy comments. So I could see a question from, like a mother of 2 teenage daughters about misogyny and their future that can either have an off-the-cuff reference to pussygate, or that can be amended by Cooper to reference that.

I don't know anything about the debate tomorrow though, so this is just my fantasy.

I had that thought last night, that there absolutely has to be an n-word tape somewhere. And then it came to me this morning: it's only October the 8th. We still have one more month of oppo research that could be dropped on us at any moment. This isn't the worst thing that Trump has said, and Pussyghazi is still incredibly damning.

Carrhae saw the dissolution of the triumvirate and the fall of the roman republic. I mean both are multi-hour orgies of blood but when you compare the fundamentals, Carrhae is the better analogy, right down to the amoral rich guy (Crassus was actually rich as hell though) getting clowned on in general and in detail, followed by the tense alliance between the remaining parts of his political gang shattering and literally throwing themselves at each other in a civil war.

I would like to see Trump sue a major news corporation. That would be really funny. He can't bully them with threat of tying them up in bankruptcy from legal fees.

I don't see how it's libel to say "Donald Trump brags about sexual assault" because that's literally what he did and you have videotaped proof. Still, it's more a matter of convenience than reluctance so they can avoid the headache and it's dumb.

Ann Coulter retweeted a Hilary Clinton tweet of Hilary with Pussy Riot, praising their courage.

Not sure if Coulter thinks the use of the word 'pussy' is peoples' problem with the Trump vid or if she is just broken and malfunctioning.

Trump is a horrible piece of poo poo that thinks he can do no wrong. It can get exactly as bad as your wildest imaginings can imagine and I hope they release something equally or more horrid every day between now and the election, including something 15 minutes before the town hall tomorrow.

An N-word tape, or trump in blackface would be way less damaging to his electoral hopes than Bengoochie, and would only be moderately worse than his comments about muslims and mexicans that he made the cornerstone of his campaign. Y'all are on the wrong track because you're thinking like sane people who don't already support donald trump.

There's a video of Donald laying hands on 8-13 year old tiffany and telling her she should have been aborted. That's the thing that moves this election from Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote to Nguyễn Ngọc Loan and Nguyễn Văn Lém.

No, Clinton legitimately hosed up and praised her for raising AIDS awareness which is actually completely loving wrong. That was one of Clinton's few real screw ups this election.

She did that intentionally, though. It caused the media to poo poo all over Nancy during her funeral period while scrambling to throw a gotcha at Hillary, which she just brushed off with a "whoops, guess I was thinking of something else".

She's been a politician for almost three decades, she knew exactly what she was doing. If anything, it was one of the most brilliant actions she's taken during her campaign.

The media calls it "Admitted Sexual Assault" and Trump sues whichever org. did so and ties them up in court for years.

They call it "Lewd Comments", and it's broad enough to cover the monstrous and abhorrent things Trump has said, without the room for litigious response.

He used a cigar as a dildo while he was having one of his affairs, as far as I know it was only used vaginally, but who really gives a gently caress? It disturbs me that anti-Clinton folks can't distinguish between Bill Clinton having ill-advised but consensual affairs and Trump sexually assaulting women and bragging about it.

Devil's advocate here -- is it really consensual when the power dynamics are such that it's the president of the country and a intern? Would Roger Ailes have avoided any scrutiny and criticism if Gretchen Carlson had a good time at Fox News?

It is basically impossible to prosecute a defamation case in america, and even more impossible if you are a public figure. The bar is insanely high. So much so that the Clintons would probably lose a hypothetical case where they sued Alex Jones for saying they killed Vince Foster.
