    It might be interesting to see who turns up in St Louis tomorrow evening for the debate.

    Highest Republican office holder Speaker of the House Paul Ryan? No, this Celebrity Apprentice President show still has a few episodes left before it ends its first season.

    Kasich would have been the safe option.
    Democrats wanted Clinton, she was the ordained one.

    Rubio would even have been safe. At least neither could humiliate their nation entirely.

    Trump couldn't keep his mouth shut about Bill at the end of the last debate, telegraphed what he was going to do.

    So with the Apprentice revelations and this tape, he can't open his mouth about Bill. He probably still will, he's that stupid and easily provoked.

    Did you watch the apology video? If not...

    http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/10/08/trump-apologizes-for-lewd-remarks-in-video-statement-amid-gop-uproar.html

    '“I’ve said some foolish things, but there is a big difference between words and actions,” Trump said. “Bill Clinton has actually abused women and Hillary has bullied, attacked, shamed and intimidated his victims. We will discuss this more in the coming days.”'

    His only tweet in the last 10 hours. My guess is his team have physically confiscated his access to the internet in that time - no, I'm not joking when I say that. As in physically confiscated, like you would a child's playstation etc if they've been misbehaving too much.

    I also reckon that tweet could well have been from his team and not him while the confiscation continues... can anyone tell if it came from iPhone or Android?

    Mike Pence is not happy and said he cannot condone or defend what trump said.

    There are calls from some Republicans for Trump to withdraw and for Pence to be the candidate.
    Would love that to happen, but it won't.

    It was sad in the early hours of this mrning seeing some women on CNN defending Trump, one woman argued with Scotty Lee or whatever her name is, as she was defending Trump, another woman was arguing with her and said 'grab her pussy', and Scotty said to her 'please don't say that, my children might hear it'.
    Then the question is why defend Trump if what he said is not suitable for your children to hear?
    Even Fox news said it might be better for children to watch a delayed broadcast of the debate.
    Meanwhile Nigel Farage was on claiming there was worse said about him in the media than the current Trump tape disgrace.

    Latino woman absolutely proving the exact thing I and others have been saying for months. All you have to do to annoy Trump fans and get them claiming it's all so unfair on Donald, is to repeat, verbatim, what he has said.

    The only remaining reasons for Trump as sexism, racism, Islamophobia, bigotry... or a religious fundamentalist devotion to the letter 'R'. There's a reason we've hardly heard a peep from the blue collar rust-belters (the one demographic who had a justified reason -desperation- for supporting him).

    I think I was open mouthed when I was watching it.

    This election has everything and none of it good.

    I saw one report where they suggested it was an android phone.

    Would be interesting, apparently android = Trump, iPhone = staff.

    I saw a trump female suppporter on Fox News critisise Hilary for being less then complimentary to the women that bill had affairs with. My answer to that is what women would be friendly to a woman that your husband has had an affair with ?

    Well Bill being a cheater most likely as opposed to the women provided they don't have husbands themselves in which case they would be cheaters also.

    This takes a very special kind of mental gymnastics, it truly does...

    Trump was a Democrat when he said those things

    Baffling isnt it? Victim blaming.

    But it fits with the trump campaign.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,176 ✭✭✭✭PopePalpatine


    I honestly won't be surprised if Trump's team bring up his former Democrat allegiance as if to say, "sexual immorality is a Democrat thing!" After all, I remember a hardcore Catholic on here denounce the Democrats as "sexual deviants".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,775 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    How does one explain Billy Bush then?

    He was not a Democrat.

    You're right, FOX have been pretty hysterical in their defense of Trump's bragging about sexual assault the last 24 hours. They're one of the 'big 3' and hosting one of the debates, so no denying they are part of the MSM.
