In Trump’s case, seeing as he is a raging narcissist it was probably “Hey I’m a billionaire and you’re a struggling model, so I’m going to sleep around and you’re just going to put up with it and say nothing, ok?”. Of course now that Melania has stuck around this long and had children with Trump she can probably get a massive payout if she divorces, no matter what her “iron clad” pre-nup says…
And I was beaten to it by a half dozen other people ;). Geez this thread moves fast!
Ivanka was deluding herself to make public statements about her dad being a big supporter of women. It was true that Donald had some women in positions of power in the Trump organization so she could focus on that and overlook some of the sleazier stuff. Now she can’t overlook the sleazy stuff. Video of her dad talking like a sex predator on every news channel has burst her bubble.
It’s about time anyway; she’s aging out like all of his trophy wives do.
According to that Stern tape, she’s eleven years past.
He wasn’t grabbing her pussy, he was holding her up.
Oh, look. A handbasket.
Stern has released all of these tapes now. He’s hoping for and he’s going to get a ratings bump for this… maybe two weeks worth. Still, that’s just damage control and a fire sale.
Stern’s show may be (or seem to be) very liberal, but Stern is a die-hard conservative who [del]is[/del] was in the Christie/Giuliani/Trump camp all along.
I’m sure he sees this as the end of a good chance that he had of having some real power over someone sitting in The White House.
That makes you a liar and completely untrustworthy! ![]()
I just saw a Trump ad with a bunch of supporters saying that Hillary said that they were deplorable. I’m a veteran, I’m a mom, I’m etc etc etc how dare she call me deplorable!
She said that about half of his supporters were deplorable BECAUSE they are:
Racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic, you name it.
Congrats for going on TV to proudly claim that you are racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic and/or Islamaphobic. Good for you. If you embrace those sentiments - yes, you are deplorable. There is something wrong with you, if you think any of those traits are something to be proud of.
Yes the Trump story is video and about sex (at least, sexual abuse arguably). Right there it handily beats out written transcripts (though I don’t believe there’s been any claim by Clinton they are false) about two faced positions on policy. And on the policies I doubt many voters are choosing Clinton because they really think she’s a Bernie-ite/Trumpist protectionist. Similar to nobody really basing their support for Trump on his supposed latter day conversion to anti-abortion.
The goal of open borders in the hemisphere could be significant IMO if it got more attention. The accusation that the immigration issue is entirely animated by ‘racism’ and ‘xenophobia’ is based on the assumption the Democrats actually want border security and limits on immigration, and the Republicans are just making it up when they say the Democrats are for open borders. But here she is saying it. In fairness as ‘eventual goal’, but a much larger portion of the electorate than ‘deplorables’ does not want open borders now or necessarily ever. However it’s pretty well buried as a story.
This plus I wonder how the prenup stands up when this level of public revelation is added to the mix. It would not surprise me at all if she’s talking to lawyers. I think (IANAL) that pre-nups become less “iron-clad” the longer the couple is together AND when you throw in this level of admission of indiscretion.
I call bullshit on their outrage – they wear it like a damn badge of honor. It’s manufactured, fraudulent indignation. Like flies to feces, these fuckers are attracted to Trump for his bigotry, and they admire his violent rhetoric.
IMO Hillary has her election locked up.
My advice … Hillary, you need to spend the remaining time wrapping Trump around the neck of every single Republican candidate who hasn’t repudiated him. I hear theRepublican insiders are suggesting that their voters who might not vote for President (or vote for her or Johnson) to at least stay loyal to the down ticket candidates.

Hillary needs to remind these voters that if their own moral compasses won’t allow them to support Trump, what does that say about their candidate who still backs him? They need to get rid of those as being as unsuitable for public office as Trump is.
What’s your cite for Howard Sterns politics?
Privately, Hillary can state that it’s ok to have public and private positions that differ. But publicly, she’d better claim that they’re the same thing.
Explain how having different public and private views (i.e., not blurting out in public everything you privately think about a person or issue) constitutes lying. That doesn’t make one shred of sense to me at the moment, but I’m willing to listen.
Not sure of the timing on all this, but could Trump have been referring to a fuck attempt that took place prior to his wedding to Melania?
This is why nothing sticks. His brand is being an asshole. Evidence that he’s an asshole, which to a normal person is disqualifying, to them is reinforcing that he SHOULD be president.
On the tape, he is heard Tic Tac-ing in preparation for a possible future “fuck attempt.”
Sure. So what? That’s not the really damaging part of the tape.
