Hilary is going to lunge at this so hard in next tuesday's debate that Trump's meltdowns will register on the ritcher scale.

And buddy, karmic cannot even describe it!

Yup - and he just wasted an entire day today responding to these scandals, when he could have been using that time to prepare for the debate instead!

But that didn’t stop a flood of harsh criticism from his own party including some lawmakers such as Sen. Mark Kirk (R-Ill.) who said Trump should drop out of the race and Republicans should move forward with emergency procedures to find a new nominee.

They are trying to save themselves. Many of them would like to win their own election races and distancing themselves from Trump looks like a real good idea now.

the big theme on r/The_Donald/ right now is that Trump's playing 4D chess because now he can go after Bill Clinton, who they all believe to be a statutory rapist

it's a study in cognitive dissonance

The best insight I heard about the VP debate was that Kaine was debating like he wanted to be the 2016 vice president (taking on the first officer attack dog role so the captain can look benevolent) whereas Pence was debating like he wanted to be the 2020 president (acting like his running mate was someone other than Donald Trump).

What do you suppose Hillary has been doing for the last twelve hours.

Like in my head I have a picture of her in a mud bath with cucumber slices over her eyes listening to beethoven and an aide walks in and shows her the front page of the NYDN and she just flatly says "good" and goes back to her mud bath.

Bobbin Threadbare posted:

People also keep forgetting/not noticing that Pence's strategy was to drone on and on through the debate time and run out the clock. Kaine basically had to interrupt to say anything. I mean, he got pretty into it when he started interrupting Pence's solo time, but still.

What I mean is that he's not going to be allowed to attend. Large, burly men will restrain him and place him and his big ego under essential house arrest if that is necessary. There is no way on Earth the GOP leadership will allow him on camera on Sunday after this.

look guys these comments aren't so bad. The guy who used his B-list celebrity to sexually assault women will totally be reasonable when he becomes the most powerful and well known person in the world.

I hate it too, although to be fair obviously someone over in Tic Tac headquarters had a Google Alert go off and just about fell out of their chair as CNN started saying Tic Tacs over and over again in association with sexual assault. I'd issue at least one "PLEASE DISREGARD" panicked Tweet myself.

Still, the reckoning for the American people and the Republican party after November (or sooner) isn’t just about the willingness of so many in the GOP and in the general electorate not merely to tolerate such a person because people thought he was better than the alternative, but about the fact that they thought he was a curative tonic. He isn’t. He’s an emetic, and he is about to be vomited up.

There's only one way to force Trump off the ticket and it's very, very illegal.

They'd have to kill or incapacitate him. Maybe offer a multi-billion (maybe tens of billion) dollar bribe to buy him out of the race.

I'm still not sure why the GOP is trying to separate so much. It's too late to separate in the minds of most voters and by separating you're just throwing the party into chaos.

I mean despite all of this Trump could still win! Things can happen. None of this changes the fact that people still hate Hilary Clinton. If I were in the GOP and I had ridden the Trump train this long I'd go for the Hail Mary and finish it out

I really don't think Trump abuses his daughter, I just think he genuinely loves her but doesn't know the appropriate way to express love for a woman (or man for that matter) as opposed to mere randiness, and it ends up super skeevy.
