It was Donald J. Trump’s chance to sound contrite and mature, to explain away the sexually predatory boasts he was caught making on tape and to persuade Americans that — for all his no-apologies braggadocio — he was, in fact, capable of feeling shame.
Maura Cotter, 22, a senior at the University of Notre Dame, was shocked at what Mr. Trump did instead in Sunday’s debate: repeat, over and over, that what he had said on the 2005 recording, about forcing himself on women and grabbing their genitals, was simply “locker-room banter.”
It was, Ms. Cotter said, “not an apology — no reason to believe he’s changed at all.”
A classmate, Abigail Wilson, who is a registered Republican, listened closely to Mr. Trump and was reminded, she said, of the time she was groped by a stranger. The Republican nominee, she said soberly, “may not have physically harmed anyone with his words, but he has the power to do so by example.”

Sorry NYT... Nobody who saw this gives a damn about that now.
NYT. A bunch of masturhaters.
Honest women would think about the stuff they say to each other in private with no men around, about the things they do at bachlorette parties (the cakes and favors in the shape of male genitals, for example) and ask themselves “wow, am I evil and rotten for this stuff or is it just silly fun that isn’t representative of anything more than joking around?”
You can’t fix stupid.
Hillary for Prez? She has a long record of exactly zero achievements other than being a grifter and playing the role Tammy Wynette for political expediency.
Trump engaged in locker room banter? I don’t see any women complaining about his actual behavior.
The Clinton’s on the other hand have actually and seriously abused women.
“I did not have have sexual relations, with that woman....Ms. Lewinsky”.
Oh, he meant the woman with the blue dress on. Personally if I were president I would be up to no good with a number of women and I would go Kennedy.
But, I don’t have women accusing me of rape, and then lying under oath, suborning perjury which resulted in his being fined nearly $1 million, disbarred 5 years and permanently barred from ever arguing in front of the Supreme Court.
Sure, he’s not on the ballot but, she supported his actions which demonstrably injured women and she tore into them often.
Her dishonesty goes all the way back to Watergate, when she worked on the committee.
Rose law records mysteriously show up as gift years after the original investigation ended. Weird and why have them show up at all.
The there is Whitewater, Travel gate, trumped up charges that some idiotic video was to blame for Benghazi, orchestrating the destruction of the Middle East, conveniently deciding what emails to give back and erasing some 30,000.
Lucky for her Comey decided that while what she did is prosecutable, no one in their right might would pursue this case and therefore he would not refer it to justice.
Poor Petraeus. Now that guy is an asshole (sarcasm).
Lucky for Clinton, 1/2 of her voters weren’t alive when she and Bill pulled their shenanigans, so they see her through a different lens
We had a family gathering yesterday. A two hour drive through the west Michigan countryside. We counted thirty Trump signs and than quit keeping track. Two Clinton yard signs.
And they were not bothered at all by Bill sexually assaulting other women or Hillary’s role in silencing the victims.
Yeah, right. What else would you expect from the Slimes?
The enemy is panicking folks.
Ha haaa...the NY Slimes is panicking
NYT prints a paper that too few still read.
Yes, they think Trump is too terrible to be President, but they are going to put Bill Clinton back in the WH!
Many?
NYT is sexist.
They tell women how they should think.
If all they querying were liberal women, sure. Most conservative and moderate women my wife and I know either don’t care what he said, or are actually annoyed the left and the MSM thinks this is an issue worthy of major headlines. I am glad the Luntz group stated an overwhelming concern about Hillary’s deleted emails over Trump’s locker room talk. Everyone outside of the left’s base thinks the same thing.
They are indeed. It's sweet to watch.
The Slimes is at it again
I watched that video twice, and anyone who is expressing such outrage and shock over it, is a total hypocrite. I’ve heard men and WOMEN talk much coarser and off color than that. In other words, those expressing shock and offense are doing so to advance an agenda. Has any one of them ever listened to any rap music, or (I’ll date myself) a Red Fox album or any other similar comedy routine in these days? I seem to recall seeing Mae West making some rather suggestive remarks in movies way back in the 1930’s or 40’s. What Trump said was about on the level of some of these stuff.
Actually this Eleven year old tape which was carefully released for maximum impact just gave the election to Donald Trump. Because of the tape Trump let loose on the Clintons. Because of the tape a huge number of additional people watched the second debate and saw Hillary crushed. The contrast could not have been more clear. Because of the tape we now know for sure who the traitors in the Republican Party are. Thank you Mitt Romney; Thank you Paul Ryan; Thank you Lindsay Graham, Thank you Bush clan; you just accomplished something that we might not have been able to do without you. Trump for President 2016!
Still tryng to stampede the RINO heard. A lot of ‘em were smoked out over the weekend ...pussies ...
