    I find the people trying to equate Clinton and Trump, like they are somehow a tough choice, difficult to credit.

    Imagine you are seeking urgent medical care for your family and there are two people offering to help. One is a qualified surgeon with 30 years of experience. Their husband cheated on them, but they didn't divorce. People think shes a little cold - if anything they complain that she has too much experience as a doctor.

    The other option is the town drunk. Talks like a moron. Often starts sentences with "I'm not a racist, but..." Very confident he can do the surgery, no problem. Boasts that he has no qualifications, and says modern medicine is actually a sham - if doctors and medicine are so great how come people still die, huh? When he thinks you are not looking he tries to grope you.

    It is not even close. I don't like Clinton - she is an albatross around the Democratic party, and she will be just a 1 term President. Because the Republicans have to fix their primary process after it vomited up a terrible candidate like Trump.
    ?? Absolutely bizarre post. Not sure why you've gone to the trouble of creating some inane analogy when the real situation is perfectly graspable and not at all conducive to (baffling) comparisons like the one you've made. You talk about groping, but no mention of Dr. Clinton deleting all your medical records after an inquest is launched due to medical malpractice?

    I've gone to the trouble because in the real situation, a minority people are going 'Hmm, I do think an unqualified, inexperienced, racist, sexist moron who has no solutions and a limited vocabulary is acceptable as President of the United States of America'

    So clearly no, it cant be perfectly graspable to a minority.

    Everyone knew Trump is a big bully who is still in shock that things are not going his own way. I am not sure what is more cringe-worthy; Trump and his hard on statements or Permabear stating that the world was a different place in 2005 where males could get away with such rubbish. I can assure you, they were called out then as they are called out now

    That's great, but it was a terrible, irrelevant and heavily biased analogy. So pretty pointless.

    Lots of rules and laws make no sense until you view them through the prism of what caused them to be made.

    The more ridiculous a rule looks to you, the more you realise that somebody at some point did that thing the rule is there to prevent.

    No, it got through to you because you thought 'Hmm, I would never let Trump carry out surgery on my family. That would be crazy. He is completely unqualified.'

    Rubbish. Who has not made a locker room joke or responded to someones elses locker room comments / chat / banter at some stage. If thats all that can be pinned on him I would not be too worried. At least he was not like Hilaries lying cheating husband, or JFK.

    The fact that you are not worried what Trump says or does is no great surprise especially after Farage seems to revel in it as well

    Ok I think Trumps impending defeat has melted his supporters brains. Seriously, even Trumps wife has denounced his comments and yet here you are still defending them???

    He cheated on his first wife with his second wife, and on his second wife with his third & current wife.

    Somehow I don't think anyone on this thread has bragged at the pub or in a gym/sports club changing room about being able to get away with groping a woman because they're rich and famous.

    It's completely normal to cheat on your wife, unless you are Clinton.

    I'm starting to think Clinton was wrong about half of trumps supporters being depolarable. I doubt they have the mental capacity to manage it.

    Where's that being reported? If it was so shocking and damning surely at least Fox would be all over it.

    It's been posted on this forum many times today. Just felt someone had to provide some sort of rebuttal to it.

    Just watched the Debate there. How the hell can any educated person support Trump. He answered absolutely nothing he was asked. The man is a complete and utter joke. Whatever Hillarys sins they absolutely pale in comparison with this odorous Oversized low IQ'ed Oompa Loompa.

    Are we still discussing Trumps words?

    His wife condemned them, he apologised, Paul Ryan and others have run for the hills. That's the reaction from himself and those who should be by his side.

    As for the dismissal as banter and locker room talk, what's the fun in someone saying their daughter is a fine piece of ass? Who here has had a friend say that? How did you react? I think I'd have to leave someone's company if they said it, it's just too disturbing.

    No, it's not worse than decisions Bill Clinton made. But what's the relevance? We are discussing the future President, and it won't be Bill Clinton.

    How is that shocking evidence of media bias or coaching ? All we hear is the tail end of a quote from Clinton about which someone then talks about.

    You think these stations don't clarify what people are going to say on camera before hand ?

    Edit: Actually she was just repeating the soundbite they were playing on the live feed before teeing up a question directly related to it.

    Breitbart could hardly be considered 'Mainstream Media'

    Try:
    CNN
    ABC
    CBS
    NBC
    MSNBC
    Etc.. Etc

    Even Fox is divided on Trump.

    No, but if the world you can pin on Trump is some locker room banter, then its not as serious as Clintons email embarassment.
