    Trumps biggest supporter Rudy Giuliani is on cnn now. He thinks that trumps "apology" was sincere and was an actual apology.

    What does he hope to get out of hitching his wagon to Trump? Can't understand it.

    Trump has his twitter back. Fighting back, calling likes of McCain and other traitors .

    Well, Trump's rape cases and upcoming hearing about raping a child will come up at some point tonight now I reckon...

    And just like that, he ceded any chance he had of getting Arizona's 11 electoral college votes.

    It will be all or nothing from Trump. He will let the millions of people watching that Bill is a serial rapist and the Hilary knows and enables it and has threatened his many victims .


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,495 ✭✭✭✭Billy86

    Do you believe the women who have accused Trump of rape, including the one set to go to a hearing in December?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 85,344 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    I believe her. Bill is a rapist and the police do nothing, Obama does nothing.

    She signed a sworn affidavit that the allegations were false. Besides that this resurfaced in 1999 right after his impeachment hearing. This is nothing new

    You know Obama doesn't personally bring people to trial? He's the president, not a prosecutor.

    People can repudiate affidavits. Not unusual for someone to not want to become a media spectacle for a political campaign.

    It was a no win situation of her.
    During the 1992 Presidential campaign there were unfounded rumors and stories circulated that Mr. Clinton had made unwelcome sexual advances toward me in the late seventies. Newspaper and tabloid reporters hounded me and my family, seeking corroboration of these tales. I repeatedly denied the allegations and requested that my family’s privacy be respected. These allegations are untrue and I had hoped that they would no longer haunt me, or cause further disruption to my family.

    You mean the woman who, as far as anyone is aware, doesn't even exist?

    You mean the woman who the MSM has vetted and deemed not trustworthy enough to smear Trump with?

    When even the MSM isn't picking up on an anti-Trump story, you know there's nothing to it.

    I'm actually going to watch his debate live tonight. After the Trump tape leak. I think this could get really ugly tonight. Trump will pull out absolutely he has on Clinton in a desperate move to make her look as bad as possible, He'd bring up the Emails, Bill Clinton, Benghazi, Everything.

    But ultimately I think Clinton will crush him again.and in the aftermath of the debate, I can see Trump backing out of the race.

    We could see Clinton vs Pence in November.

    Frankly, if Trump can't get away from the Bill Clinton point scoring he doesn't deserve to win. He needs to talk to undecided voters about the issues and basically pretend that Hillary Clinton isn't there by ignoring all her little jabs.

    If Trump step's aside, Pence presumably will step up to the mark which leaves me wondering if it's Cruz or McCain as V/P. Don will probably be like Vesuvius tonight ready to blow his top and lash out at his fellow republicans.

    Trump need to come out swinging literally, then get her in a head lock and throw her against a wall. If you are going out go out in style . lol

    Not even deep down, they've been running from Trump to save the senate all weekend!

    The House should likely be safe either way, but if they hadn't removed from him that wouldn't even be a given.

    They should run off 'look we let him run because he got the most votes fairly, whereas the Democrats...' angle on that front, I reckon. It's fairly true, too.

    The election is too close now to change the ballot. Trumps name is still on there regardless but. If he backs out Pence will have to take that place, This clostr to the vote, The republicans have little to no chance.

    It seems to be Hilary that these people are afraid of. They fear for their lives if she becomes president, they said as much. Are those fears real, they believe so at least . Suddenly no one is talking about Trumps tapes every station is talking about these women, Trump is great at changing the subject.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,072 ✭✭✭✭aloyisious


    First rebuttal by Don to question from chair, he never did the things he mentioned on the video. 2nd question from voter via the chair; he won't answer if he has changed from the man he was then to what he is now. goes into attack on Bill Clinton instead about him being a rapist.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 85,344 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    He's done. He has nothing better to do than attack Hillary "like a bitch"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,072 ✭✭✭✭aloyisious


    He won't answer the questions put to him from the voters via the chair. His secretively policy is exactly that of Obama against Osama, but he decries Obama and Hilary not going the secretive way.

    Opposite to the first debate, Trump started poorly and got better.

    I'd call it a draw which is no good for Trump.

    What they are saying is that the Dems could be happy enough that The Donald kinda did ok. Because if he totally tanked and had a complete disaster there was the possability he could have pulled out or even dropped off the ticket. Then Hillary could have up against Pence and that is a tougher battle. As it is now its going to be a slow bleedout for Trump until november

    So to recap. Twenty Five years ago a woman claims she and Bill Clinton had an affair.

    And because Hillary "attacks" her and hires an investigator to check her story you think this makes Hillary as "guilty" as Bill?

    Is that right? Basically you're saying the wife of the person having the affair is as sleazy and as badly behaved as the person having the affair?? Its like 19th century logic. And as an election tactic you can see how well its working.

    And yet Hillary did not defend Bill against what Trump said about Bill doing rather than talking when it came to sexual assault.
    She failed to say anything on it, or defend her husband.
    Silence can be deafening.

    Bill is really in trouble for his third term.
    Indeed, Bill Clinton should withdraw from the 2016 presidential race immediately, and allow his wife Hillary to run in his place. And after those Friday groping tapes of Donald Trump, he should withdraw too, and let his daughter Ivanka Trump run so that she can sell more of her Made in China pink dresses as she did during the July RNC.

    During the 2nd debate, why didn't Hillary Clinton KO Donald Trump using Friday's Trump groping women tapes? Could it be that there are more groping Trump tapes to be released in the next few days? If what Bill Pruitt tweeted is true, all it would take is just one more Donald Trump groping (or worse) tape, and game over! Many Republican Senators, House Representatives, and Governors have un-endorsed Trump since Friday. Those silently standing by would certainly un-endorse Trump too if tape 2 hit the air waves.

    could be, Colombian flu they call it ?

    Anyway, Trump did pretty well considering the mess he's in ... too little too late though, unless something really crushing is unveiled on Hillary - which the MSM will ignore anyway, so congrats Hillary ..
