My gut feeling is that they wanted to hold this until the last weekend beflre the election. Sort of like Bush’s drunk driving situation.

But, for some reason, they released it early.

Must be some big dirt coming out on Hillary and they need a distraction.

I too am outraged by Trumps crude choice of words. A true gentleman, worthy of the highest office would have used ‘hooha’, instead....

A new nominee is a guaranteed loss. The dems would take every ballot cast prjor to election to court and the judges will naturally side with the dems and throw.all those votes.out.

It staggers the mind:: They have worked up a faux fury at Trump and ignored Benghazi, pay-for-play, 33,000 deleted government records, $6 billion lost by the department of state, open borders....and the pièce de résistance: cigars and impeachment.

Something evil this way comes.

Jack Welch is a charlatan. I remember him going on TV and telling folks GE was in such good shape he was doubling down on the shares he was buying. many folks believed him and ended up losing a lot of money....he’s in bed with those who think like Obama and Hillary - “F the People - I am more important than the lot of them”.

Trump must get back to attacking democrat failures. He should just ignore the mudslinging.

I’m almost half thinking that Trump planned this. It’s perfect before the debate. Now the gloves come off if she once opens her trap about it.

He can be presidential. He can be cool, and stick to the facts about his campaign and hers.

Point out that her approach to opponents is not to win votes with ideas and accomplishments, but with lies intimidation attack ads etc.

Trump is truly going to be a president beholding to no one.

When Jack Welch went to those "interviews" for Suzy Wetlaufer's HBR article, he wound up grabbing some p**** instead.

I don't suppose any of the Bush family got it on tape, though.

Not that I know of. The party is stuck with its nominee as a function of state law in some states, contract law in others. Trump has to be unable or unwilling to serve, in order to justify "un-nominating" him.

Why is it that these fools never complain about the depravity celebrated with powerful wattage in the lyrics of rap music, a supposed art form exalted by the same media that condemns Trump, and makes what Trump said in private seem as controversial as a bowl of white rice?

Or what appears on prime time TV every night that exalts depraved behavior and concepts before our youth in the name of cultural awareness and diversity and tolerance?

It’s remarkable how large and complex the enemy’s command structure is.

Of all people, I could easily imagine Jack Welch using the same language.

"I garr-on-tee!"

I hope Trump is making an enemies list. If he loses, I want him to destroy the GOP.
