Clinton v Trump - The Stretch Run Thread

[asahi]

And now I take you back to something that probably unnoticed a long time ago but something that will be huge in the final 2-3 weeks. Clinton campaign ad buys.

Folks, Clinton’s campaign is going to carpet bomb the networks and internet with advertising using Trump’s own words, and it’s going to be fucking brutal. It’s going to be the Clinton News Network and tonight’s featured program is: Tragic Trump. And so will tomorrow night’s programming. And so will the night after, and the night after, and…you get the picture.

Yeah, I made the mistake of reading some Facebook comments. One Trump supporter said it was no different than what every heterosexual man on the planet would say. If that’s true then I just became a lesbian.

Well, that fits with Guliani’s thoughts that everyone in the world has committed adultery.

These people just project their horrible personalities onto everyone else.

I’ve been a heterosexual man a long time. I’ve never said anything like that to anyone. (and I’ve had my share of moral failings, I’m far from perfect)

I have heard a handful of men talk like that over the years Without exception, they’ve been assholes.

Well said. Same here.

And I’ll add that I work with a guy who I have heard say the most incredibly offensive things about women. Pure crudeness with an overtone of anger/hostility. It is stuff like “I’d fuck the shit out of that bitch!” And, oh so predictably, he is a Trump supporter.

No. Saying that is something a narcissistic megalomaniac might say. Most guys are gentlemen who don’t see women as a just another fortress needing conquered.

@asahi

And this, my friends, I think is going to be the final nail in the coffin – or perhaps the extra nail for good measure.

Yeah, I really don’t see how Trump rebounds from this one. Perfect timing for the release, too, I have to say.

He’s done.

Tonight’s episode of SNL should be fun.

All they have to do is put the “then who’s doing all the raping?” clip followed by “grab them by the pussy”.

Poor Wikileaks, who dropped their ‘bombshell’ today about some bland Hillary/Wall Street speeches.

I just had a thought.

What if the Clinton campaign is saving the WORST STUFF for the last couple of weeks of the campaign? :eek:

Oh, I would not be surprised if they have something just as salacious as today’s nuke; they simply may not need to use it.

I’m sure there’s other bad stuff. It’s too early for this to be the last bombshell.

Need it or not, they’ll use it. No reason to not run up the score to make the rest of the Republicans squirm.

[Ravenman]

In a normal world, Trump would drop out and Pence would lead the ticket. But I’ve given up on thinking there is anything normal in this world anymore.

James Carville supposedly said: “When your opponent is drowning, throw the son of a bitch an anvil”

Dang even most “bros” (and I do not mean Bernie Bros) would have more class than that.

And the thing is I don’t think he was just verbally posturing. We may be hearing from women that he has indeed grabbed the genitalia of without being invited to do so.

[iiandyiiii]

Is there a mechanism for Republicans to replace Trump with Pence and get on all the states’ ballots, or is it too late?

Assange just ain’t doing the job Putin hired him to do. He better careful or someone is going to insert a plutonium enema.

I’m increasingly worried that this might happen. Not sure how the election shakes out from there.

[Jungian_Camisole]

Oh, to be a fly on Kelly Ann’s wall right about now. Is Sean Hannity on tonight? The show could be worth recording.

[Onomatopoeia]

I certainly hope there is adequate security backstage at Sunday’s debate. I would not at all be surprised to see Trump become a bit unhinged from the weight of all the bad press he’s had to deal with for the past two weeks.

This new revelation may be what finally pops his cork if it is brought up during the debate.
