WTF man? The GOP did NOT embrace Trump. Only until after the primary did they take their lumps and accept him, and even then many were not on board. If you mean by GOP Sean Hannity and Rush, sure. But I can tell you, they're not the GOP.

10/8/2016 11:38:47 AM

Wait a minute -

GOP = republicans = republican voters.... right?

So while you can say the GOP leadership didn't necessarily embrace him, they didn't stop him. Republican voters embraced him.

"Could you imagine if Obama had done it said any of the 5,345 things that Trump has been found to and the GOP response? He likely would have been impeached and their would have been not so thinly veiled racism at the minimum. Shit, if he had two ex-wives and was not around a kid (Tiffany) basically at all he would have never won a single election. Democrats aren't exactly perfect (and their candidate sure isn't close either) but the GOP is really going to need to do some soul searching after this debacle. How can the religious right not just be ridicules to non-existence? "

If this election has taught me anything, its that obama is clean as fuck relative to every other person i've ever seen run for president.

Let's be real for a second, Hillary has been measuring drapes since June. This hasn't been about the Presidency for a while. Now it's all about down ticket races. The Senate is almost certainly flipping to the Democrats and the House is probably in play now. Conventional wisdom says Hillary winning by 7+ will flip the House and that's definitely possible right now. At some point, this has to depress GOP turnout and you can't ticket split if you don't show up.

The last 24 hours in this race have been a wet dream, that's true. We're watching the GOP implode, in real time, on live TV. It's an amazing and beautiful thing

But like I said, the House being in play has nothing to do my personal exuberance. It's just math. Hillary winning nationally by +7 or more = Nancy Pelosi holding the gavel again.

My totally baseless conspiracy theory:

This video was actually secretly released by GOP bigshots. After the first debate, they finally had to admit that Trump is hopeless, and they put out this video to give them cover to withdraw support.

The past 24 hours has been...well, not good, not when American democracy has reached the point where "Grab 'em by the pussy" has entered the lexicon, but certainly very pleasant to watch in a schadenfreude-y kind of way. Watching the GOP tear itself apart is fun. I just hope that they make some serious changes as a result of this experience.

I'm not so naive as to hope for the dream, where a moderate fiscal responsibility party spins off the religious nutjobs screaming about gays. But maybe they can take a long, hard look at their tactics over the past decade and go another direction.

Obviously they did so to a greater extent than anybody would have liked, but let's not overreach here. Less than half of the Republican primary electorate voted for him.

It's been less than a week since the video was uncovered.

Quote :

""Access Hollywood" began digging into its archives for videos of Donald Trump earlier this week. The impetus was an Associated Press story, the show's host Natalie Morales said on Friday evening, where former staff members of the show "The Apprentice" described Trump's behavior toward women, calling them "lewd" and "inappropriate." Morales said that in the course of their reporting, "Access Hollywood" staffers looked back at the many interviews they've had with Trump and discovered the footage of Trump with then-host Billy Bush chatting on a bus about women and using vulgar language. "We'll tell you all of the logistics so you understand the context," Morales said. "There were seven other people on the bus with Mr. Trump and Billy Bush at the time. They were with a two-person camera crew, the bus driver, an 'Access Hollywood' producer, a production assistant, Mr. Trump's security guard and his PR person. Upon arriving at our NBC lot our camera crew was let off the bus so they could record Mr. Trump getting off and meeting the soap opera star." The show also revealed that the "Nancy" Trump is heard admitting he "moved on her and I failed," is former "Access Hollywood" host and now Entertainment Tonight host Nancy O'Dell. But though "Access Hollywood" was preparing a segment on the unearthed video, the Washington Post altered the show's plans. According to the Post, at 11a.m. on Friday, reporter David Fahrenthold received a phone call offering the video (the Post did not say who the source was). By 4p.m., the Post had its story up. NBC News, which is under the same parent company as "Access Hollywood," published its own version of the video and story mere minutes after the Post on Friday afternoon, having been tipped off that the newspaper had it as well when Fahrenthold called the network for comment."

Well said, I just wish the Democrats could have gotten an outsider in there too instead of an establishment politician. And yeah, in order for the Republicans to rebound from all of this I too think they are going to have to become much more socially liberal and be very pro gay, pro abortion, pro gun reform, etc. At the same time they will need to hold onto more fiscally conservative values than the Democrats. That would be very appealing to have a president that wants to control spending, but doesn't care about a change in social norms.

I just don't see that happening. My money is that the Rockefeller Republican and libertarian wings that you describe will just become Democrats, and make that party more fiscally conservative.



Also, I like how every dipshit I see defending Trump, specifically with respect to his latest comments, is a full-retard, Bible-thumping, young-Earth über-Christian. I can't wait to throw this shit in their faces next time they talk about morally bankrupt atheists and liberals.
