Al Roker is the hero we need right now.

Trump famously claims to not drink, and that he's never had a cigarette or a cup of coffee. Also claims he doesn't do drugs.

Apparently 35 is his "check out" age.

Pretty much a wee babe in swaddling clothes!

I hope this former-First-Lady-running-as-Pres thing sticks, and it's Barb. That old battleaxe (and I say that with all love) would sort us right out.

No person or people in American politics - perhaps no one anywhere in any politics - has been investigated more often and more thoroughly than Bill and Hillary Clinton.

I just hope she has much, much more.

Plus if she had gone too hard on him, then his side would be able to say that all the Bill accusers made her emotional and angry and stuff.

Even someone making comments like that about a colleague?

Sadly, I don't think it would make a difference.
I mean, we know about the racial bias case, all the racist housing discrimination from the 1970s and 1980s. What exact word does anyone think that he was using to describe black people at the time?
And even knowing that having someone saying it on tape is usually harder…

I mean watching the OJ series with a bunch of Brits was surreal. "Yep, that happened. That too. That too. No, that's no exaggerated" etc.

What an oddly memorable movie.
For a fairly minor Disney film, I think I still know all the songs by heart.

Even if he wasn't a member of the Bush family, of course he gets away with stuff like that - it's punching down, who's going to complain?
Flatter the guys slightly higher up than you. Find common ground by demeaning woman and (let's assume) pretty much anyone who isn't straight white rich men. Be the guy who keeps…

Hey man. We need to know what she's done and what she looks like in order to care about her sexual assault.
Now, where does it list how many sexual partners she's had and what kind of birth control she's on?

I can't say that's hugely surprising. I mean, there must have been a big concern that Trump would sue PLUS it makes one of their own look awful.
Maybe I'm just kind of happy that it came out the way it did - it's been a good year for leaking things to newspapers. I'm sure there would have been some severe editing if…

Yeah. If they were in any way offended by his slime, they'd have suspended him immediately. Instead they waited a few days to see if people would just forget it, I guess, then suspended the spineless wonder when someone realised that women make up a big part of their viewing audience.

Not a chance. I don't really think they're that close anyway. Though I love the thought of Billy having to interact with Barb Bush at Thanksgiving dinner now.

But then again, don't you enjoy the few moments of utter weirdness that result from attempting to explain the Dancing Itos to anyone who wasn't around for it?

Yeah. I'm just shocked that NBC even suspended the grimy two-bit pimp.
