If anyone wonders how this could get worse for Trump, Rick Wilson said he has enough oppo to drop a new story every day until the election, and this last story wasn't even one of the ones he has

No, he's showing support for Trump. Recall Trump was uninvited from that event by Ryan yesterday. Pence isn't "going rogue" he's sticking by Trump.

Which is proof Pence really is loving stupid.

Even if Trump left and the GOP got their platonic ideal replacement of him 1: ballots are already printed and 2: the Trump base is going to go apeshit if he leaved under any circumstance.

Oh yeah, they're truly hosed now. This is going to hurt them beyond just the Presidency because it turns out if you betray the terrible candidate that half your party loves, they will probably just stay home

Oh, probably, but that won't hurt Trump. Pussygate is damning for Trump because it will keep white women from voting Republican.

The worst thing I can think of is a tape coming out where Trump just eviscerates his base as a bunch of country hicks who are a bunch of pussies that cry about losing their jobs because they are worthless, and that he is glad that he replaced all those poor whites with immigrant workers because they are clearly better employees. Something like that.

I would also like to point out that my avatar is consensual dick grabbing.

No, it'll be a recording of Trump saying how he finds Jeff Dunham racist. That'll really upset southern white males.

^^^^^^^^Ah okay thanks.

No no. I don't mean Trump dropping out and Pence being the candidate. That wont work.
I mean Pence saying: "Working 4 years under this moron? gently caress this I'm out!"

No, he still has a tiny, tiny chance of becoming the power behind the throne, the one making all the real decisions, Cheney version 2.0. It's a much smaller chance than it was before, because Trump's chances of being elected are much smaller than they were before, but then Trump's also proven that he's motivated solely by flattery, and gets bored with anything remotely difficult after about 10 minutes, so Pence's chances of actually making all the decisions if Trump should win (God forbid) must seem pretty good.

What the gently caress was he thinking anyway? Anyone with at least 10% of a brain could have told him that literally all his dirty stuff would come out. Of course the media will still drop all the oppo they have on him. Even if he concedes.
I guess he never reflected on his life and found any flaw whatsoever. Also he forbade his campaign staff to do oppo research on him so none of them did either.

I wonder what Paul Ryan's doing right now

"When the time comes, you'll know it." John said in a serious tone.
"I don't understand. It can't be that bad can it?" said Paul Ryan, fear seeping in to his voice.
...

As news of the Trump tape came out, Paul Ryan knew that John Boehner was right, the time had come. With trembling hand he took out the key and walked to the locked chest sitting in the corner of his office. Slowly turning the key, he unlocked and opened the chest. Sitting inside was a clear glass bottle, and a note. Paul unfolded the note and read the words, a single line.

"Just start drinking and don't stop. -John"

This loving election. I have friends who are defending Trump because they don't have daughters, and these friends are arguing with their friends who have daughters but not sons. There's a disgusting amount of "boys will be boys" and "women can lie, like Hillary".

This election is going to create a lot of hate for people as their true colors come out.
