Sincerely,

It was hilarious for all the pre-game coverage talk about the Giants “experience,” “veteran presence,” and “they’ve been here before”-ness for them to make three base running mistakes (caught stealing, pick-off of first, and Posey waiting to see the fielder caught it when there were already two outs) in the first…

The hilarious thing is that he’s not doing particularly hard work. He’s basically calling people known to have interacted with Trump and asking them, “Did Donald Trump do something comically heinous while you interacted with him?” and the answer is always Yes.

Oh, but if Hillary hadn’t been smiling the whole time, it would’ve been “gee, she’s so cold and robotic, she should smile more”.

I heard that woman too. She’s next-level stupid. She sells real estate. So does that Trump-woman in Ohio who said there was no racism before Obama. Hmmm.

I honestly can’t understand why this needs to be explained so often. One would think in time where we’ve gotten used to completely ignoring how the election plays out in deep red states and deep blue states, that only the mushy middle counts. Just like we’re not really concerned about voters in Oklahoma or Maryland,…

They actually have no legal obligation to give both sides equal time — that was one of the first things Reagan nuked when he became POTUS 35 years ago. It’s what makes Fox News possible.

My first week of college, at orientation, we were taught that being too drunk to say no does not, in any way, mean yes. Whoever Rose had fill in for him must have forgotten to relay that to him later.

Not this time. I legitimately know women who were on the fence about voting at all, or who were thinking about voting 3rd party, who have told me they will be actively campaigning for Hillary over the coming month, because of this tape. One lives in Durham, NC.

Now I’’ no big city lawyer, but doesn’t laying the groundwork for the “she was drunk so it couldn’t have been rape” defense imply the event occured?

She either scowls and doesn’t smile enough or flirts with the camera like a little slut. There is no in-between. No correct countenance. No right answer ever. Nothing short of televised seppuku would satisfy this crowd.

That’s not the point of these stories. There’s two blocs where this kind of thing has an effect:

There’s still a 20% in the ‘mushy middle’ that haven’t made a decision, or can be swayed. This kind of thing keeps his awfulness in the front of their minds, and nothing else he does will balance out.

The 40% of baked in GOP…

“Locker room talk” not so much. . This is more like predator pep talk.

People on twitter are reacting to this video in an appropriate manner: they are saying Trump is describing sexual assault.

Especially in light of the fact that he’s been trying to spin his treatment of women as him just playing a character. Now we know how he talks about women when he thinks no one is listening, kinda blows that whole defense to pieces.

Do Trump supporters really think that Jeff Bezos (the 3rd wealthiest person in the entire world) needs Soros money? Even Bezos knows the dangers of Trump.

It relates to a famous quote regarding never picking an argument with someone who buys ink by the barrel. Trump picked a fight with the WaPo and withdrew their credentials for a while, they haven’t stopped digging in response.

He is bleeding evangelicals in a way the RNC has never experienced. 100 major leaders just wrote an essay dissuading their constituents from voting for him. I hope we see a major lack of turnout from historically RNC friendly voters as a protest against him. They aren’t likely to vote a HRC but I think there is a…

No one who is still standing by Trump at this point is going to think “Grab them by the pussy” is a dealbreaker.

I can’t really imagine that in even the most mutual, long term, consensual relationship being “grabbed by the pussy” is a positive thing.
