Donald Trump Talks at Debate, but Many Women Hear Only a 2005 Tape

It was Donald J. Trumps 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 Sundays 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 hes 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.

These poor young sensitive and impressionable snowflakes grew up watching hardcore porn on the internet and are now offended by some “language”
Sure. I'll buy that for a dollar. Scratch beneath the surface and I'm sure these two liberal whores, Maura and Abigail, are on first name basis with the free clinic.

The NY Slimes isn’t even fit to use as toilet paper any more. Blank newsprint would be superior, as it wouldn’t be full of lies and biased information.

"The slime uses 2 millenias remarkes as cover for the war on women by the GOP. Pitiful. Huge cheating is the only hope for the dims come election day. "
Back in 2005, women were women. These days, thanks to the demRATs obama-clintons, you cannot make those assumptions.

Drudge’s cover of Paul Ryan as “PUSSEY WHIPPED” has got to sting.

“Because of the tape we now know for sure who the traitors in the Republican Party are.”
That kabuki party knee-jerk to condemn Trump was something to behold. They couldn't help themselves.
All of these traitors are now on record supporting one of the biggest treasonous corrupt lowlife b!tches on the planet. They all belong in prison.

The Slimes being the slimes. Truly pathetic. Offer them a cigar - maybe it’ll jar their memories.

If you line your birdcage with the Slimes, be sure to keep the political opinions face down. You don’t want your bird vomiting all over themselves.

Why on earth would I go to cnn?
WHY do you guys put yourselves through such pain?!?!
I even gave up fox news a year and a half ago.
Life is stressful enough.
Been to CNN twice in last 2 or 3 years. Both times for the two recent debates to vote in the poll.
And that WAS hard to stomach!!

Translation: "Trump didn't abase himself and throw away his chances at winning this election. Instead, he attacked, pressed Clinton on the issues and won the debate."
The NY Times is a joke, clucking over the fact that Trump didn't go along with the liberal game plan. Anything the NY Times thinks is bad is a positive for America.

Maybe they were turned on by the tape?
