Explain to me why that would not be a double standard.
Unlikely, IMHO. If anything it was cover fire for the wikileaks dump, though I think the timing was this right release before wiki but who knows. With Hillary bringing up the pageant woman in the last debate and the nonstop chatter about it since then, he didn’t need an excuse to bring up Bill’s rapes (though this certainly does reinforced his justification).
Someone clearly sat on it, but why not release in on the Monday or Tuesday after the debate where Trump can’t publicly respond and attack Bill in front of millions and the media can pillory him over and over? Maybe that was the plan but wiki forced them to blow up the timing.
I do think the Clintons on some levels think that brining up Bill’s past will backfire for Trump. They have the media to spin it as just “allegations” while you have Trump on tape speaking cruedely. Most people will be altogether disgusted with both of them and be a net positive for Clinton. I think they’re probably wrong about that depending upon how well Trump prosecutes the case on Sunday.
With what Bill and Hillary Clinton have done over the years they have no place even commenting on Trump. Democrats have been scandalous for years. The only difference is that they protect their own, stand steadfast, and fight back. Republicans like Chavitz and Ryan run like scared rabbits and cower to every Democrat charge.
I suspect that Trump heard somehow that this was going to come out anyway and so he edged it out there so as to control the timing and damage.
My vote has been against Hillary since before the primaries. It still is.
If Trump can spin it on the next debate. He did poor PR spin work on the first debate.
WHEN it comes up in the debate Sunday - and it certainly will - Trump should say this:
“I don’t know where or how the Washington Post got their hands on this recording from 20 years ago but, as I’ve been saying this whole campaign, the media is in the tank for Hillary. This is just more proof. But that doesn’t excuse what I said, and I immediately issued a statement and apology as soon as this story came out. So I have a question for you: what is worse, what I SAID, or what Hillary DID? Hillary is the one who laughed about getting a rapist of a minor girl off as his defense attorney. Hillary is the one that orchestrated the attacks on her husbands accusers. Where is HER apology?”
Trump is A GENIUS!
WE SHALL SEE.
No, he didn’t. It was an October Surprise. He may survive it, but no good will come of it.
Hillary and Soros?
That’s right, Scott, he’s an a$$hole, but he’s OUR a$$hole. I stopped by CNN for a couple of minutes to see the brouhaha last night. All the people that were offended on that show should be asked, Did you vote for Bill Clinton? Did you vote for him twice? Woukd you still vote for him today? I’m sure MK was happy, but I don’t watch her anymore.
I don’t like this leak, but who does. At the same time, stuff happens. Men talk and pursue women, some with more enthusiasm than others. I say this as a woman, shame on you, Donald...now let’s get going and win this thing!
Clinton Kicked $125K to Hospital After Receiving Treatment for Blood Clot

If he released it he is either in the tank for Hillary or he is borderline retarded. All the news are blaring this instead of the released Hillary speeches. Even here are free republic there are probably 5 or 6 threads on the tape for each Hillary thread. Those speeches should be devastating to Hillary and all he has done so far is apologize for this instead of hammering her on her hypocrisy.
Friday dump makes sense.
I’ve never heard such a weird idea in my long time in politics. Anyone who buys into it is just desperately whistling past the graveyard.
No he didn’t! While I might buy into the theory he leaked the Tax Return Doc he’s not stupid enough to leak this video under any circumstance.
