How screwed are republicans long term? I figure they have pissed off blacks, pissed off Latinos, pissed of Asians with their anti-immigrant stances. These groups would typically be receptive to the pro-family, pro-business wings of the republicans. But the republicans have been so myopic that they are just focusing on the old white guys voting block, which are going to be dead in 15 years.

Trump is going to un-endorse the GOP.

It'll be right after the next mega-bomb media release, when more of the GOP leadership drop him.

Can't. Wait.

NBC figures this may be why someone started heckling Bill yesterday.

Nothing says "We find these allegations abhorrent" than trying to make a quick buck off of them.

This actually enrages me. I've got a few family members and a couple close acquaintances who buy into this garbage. In one case, they've literally bought in to the tune of a couple thousand dollars (credit cards aren't real money, right?) to order every product he, and other like him, promote. This shithead is preying on the mentally damaged, and some lucky idiot is going to get arrested or worse for trying to elbow their way onto a live broadcast.

:911: 'merica

It's more that 40% of our country is non-white so the racists can't get away with it as easily as a country where only 10-20% are non-white. A lot of bullshit and horrible poo poo ad loving polic murders happen, but it's tiny, margainally harder not to appeal to non-white groups, as a politician.


I've said it before and I'll say it again, for a man who critizes Hillary for "giving away his plan on ISIS," he sure has given her two weeks to prepare for this.

In some jurisdictions dual citizenship is not allowed so she (or her parents) might have decided to renounce her US citizenship to get citizenship somewhere else, and then afterwards dual citizenship has been allowed in that jurisdiction and she's reclaimed her citizenship.

I somehow think Trump saying "I"m not going to attack Clinton over Bill's indiscretions" and then having this blow up and immediately switching to "I"m going after that rapist Bill and that bitch Hillary who enabled him" undermines that line of attack. If you say you're not going to do something, and then flip on that as soon as you get some negative press it's incredibly obvious to anyone who cares you're just lashing out hoping to change the attention away from you.

Man I have a feeling this is going to get ugly in the debate tonight and in the coming days

It's because Clinton isn't going to get baited. She's going to be answering policy questions while a mean white man yells at her about her husband. The optics will be awful for him.

The only way to "win" the debate as Trump would be to not talk about it at all, but this is trump. He will probably confirm he raped his second(?) wife but settled with "no claim of wrongdoing".

Edit: Forgot to add, "It's just business. Happens all the time."

Since it's all but assured that Trump will not get the presidency, as long as this totally tanks the GOP's chances of getting or retaining seats in the House and Senate, I'm happy with this outcome. I just want the GOP to collapse.
