What happened to the October Surprise that was destined to finish the Trump Campaign?

Did anyone else notice the absence of an election-changing October surprise registered by the Clinton Campaign (or surrogates) against Donald Trump?

I don’t know about you, but I was a little concerned going into the last month of the election, having read claims by any number of self-described, former Trump “associates” who suggested they were in possession of THE damning audio/video which would effectively end the billionaire’s campaign. Not that Donald Trump is an evil guy, but it stands to reason that an individual so consistently in the public eye might have done or said something he would not want carried on page one of the New York Times. I’ve never committed murder but neither have I led a completely blameless life. How many of us have?

And one thing is certain—if Mr. Trump had at any time committed the slightest offense, the gravity of that behavior would have been magnified one hundred fold as the particulars were broadcast endlessly from coast to coast.

Yet the only organized assault against Trump consisted of the publication of some crude, locker room language from years ago. (The women who swore they had been sexually assaulted by Trump turned out to be paid operatives of the far left.)

Isn’t it extraordinary that political enemies who accused Donald Trump of racism, sexism, bigotry, xenophobia, homophobia and anti-semitism were unable to produce—or it seems, even manufacture—the evidence necessary to support their claims?

Hundreds—perhaps thousands—of the best diggers of political dirt in the world were unable to discredit a 70 year old man who has spent the majority of his life in the public eye!

A pretty remarkable individual, our next president.

I get so called breaking news alerts several times a day about that or this is it on FB. Bunch of junk. I hide them.

Because money will only get you so far.

Hillary was a deeply flawed candidate in health, honesty, decision making and record.

There simply was no motivation, no conviction, no enthusiasm, no energy from the 800+ staffers on her payroll?

I think her downfall was disregarding the coal miners in W. Virginia. I think it reverberated throughout the rust belt and gave Trump a very big hammer to keep hitting her with on policy.

The catastrophic point was when she collapsed during the 9/11 remembrance ceremony. She could not recover because she could not campaign and needed proxy campaigners for her. This compared to Trump who threw it all in for his bid.

Fortune favors the bold. Trump is bold.

That I don’t know, but she had received some form of settlement already, years back. I guess she wanted a second helping of ‘go away’ money.

The October Surprise is Democrats discover millions of uncounted votes.

Democrats are still counting votes from: Zimbabwe, Rome, Australia, Iran, ...

[Sacajaweau]

There were millions like myself who sat quietly in the wings. We didn't show for early voting. We didn't do an absentee ballot. We waited patiently.

And on November 8th, the day designated by our Constitution, we all met at our respective polling places and casted our vote for Donald trump.

We won and will continue "Winning".

The pussy tape was it.
They had to use it sooner than planned.

I voted Trump, but part of me is amazed he survived that one.

[jdsteel]

Yes, the supposed rape of a 13 year old by Trump was telegraphed by Libs as the final nail in his coffin.

[donna]

I heard Geraldo Rivera say he has lots of tapes.

[Sacajaweau]

Balancing locker room talk against Bubba’s ACTIONS wasn’t much of a challenge for the majority of women. We’re not stupid.

[ari-freedom]

it didn’t hurt Trump and it didn’t hurt other GOP candidates who were put on the spot over whether they could still support him

[rbg81]

We’re not stupid.

Maybe you’re not, but a lot of your fellow females are. Remember that Clinton left office with a high approval rating, thanks in large part to female voters. Without the support of female voters, he almost certainly would have had to resign over the Lewinsky scandal.

[Deplorable American1776]

The October surprise is trying to be a ‘late November/early December’ surprise. By now, they could find fraudulent votes.

[Hugin]

Yep. They had the phony “victims” of Trump’s supposed “sexual assaults” all lined up and ready to go, with Gloria Allred like she always does to Republican candidates here in CA. She brings them out the right before the last weekend of the campaign so there’s no time for the truth to come out.

[Sacajaweau]

Hell....I think of them ...not as females....but as mindless minions.

[ConservaTeen]

They decided that it will a December surprise, because they need to ‘find’ uncounted votes... (In other words, fraudulent votes)

[clearcarbon]

I thought problem the anti-Trump "October Surprises" was that if you had a day or so to think them over you'd likely conclude they were irrelevant.

I'd also thought it a smart move on President Trump's part to suggest the likelihood of election fraud before election day rather than after the vote count because, coming from the loser, it would mostly be perceived as "sour grapes."

[Marie]

Yup. That and the parade of women.

America shrugged and didn’t care. They weren’t counting on that reaction.
