Hillary Clinton Now Leads Trump by Double Digits 

What a difference a sexual assault claim makes

Clinton is now favored by 49 percentof likely voters and Trump is backed by 38 percent.

The poll shows Clinton increasing her lead over the Republican nominee. A poll conducted two weeks ago showed both major party’s nominees tied among likely voters at 43 percent.

A portion of the poll was conducted after the release of a 2005 tape in which Trump is heard making lewd comments about women. In the tape, the GOP nominee describes how he can grope and kiss women without their consent because of his celebrity status. The tape’s release has led to fallout among some Republicans, who say they can no longer support their party’s nominee.

AP Reports – Sexual Assault Victim Invited by Trump Paid $2500 By Pro-Trump Group

The Associated Press is reporting that at least one of the women that appeared with Donald Trump in a pre-debate political stunt, was paid $2500 by a pro-Trump group to tell her story. The Ap also reports that the woman was never sexually assaulted by Bill Clinton.

The Arkansas woman, Kathy Shelton, was sexually assaulted at age 12 and was the victim in a 1975 case in which Clinton was appointed to represent her then-41-year-old attacker, Thomas Alfred Taylor. Shelton has accused Clinton of crossing ethical bounds in the case, and over the past few months, Shelton has given TV and video interviews slamming Clinton.

Shelton’s case has been extensively cited in conservative media as evidence that Clinton, the Democratic nominee for president, does not have the best interests of women at heart.

The May payment to Shelton by the Committee to Restore America’s Greatness PAC, founded by Stone, was described as “contract labor” in campaign finance reports filed with the Federal Election Commission. Asked by The Associated Press about the reason for the payment, Stone said in an email that Shelton “was extensively interviewed on video about her experience with Hillary Clinton and was paid for her time.”

Rudy Giuliani Defends Trump’s Woman-groping Behavior – Video

If you can turn to anyone in this world to defend a degrading statement about women like Donald Trump’s, “grab em by the pussy,” you can count on Rudy Giuliani. After the last presidential debate ended, MSNBC’s Chris Matthews interviewed Rudy to see if he would do what everyone expected. Giuliani did not disappoint.

Asked if he would stand up for a defendant who confessed on tape to “grabbing women by their crotch,” Giuliani tried to change the focus to Bill Clinton before answering that he is “absolutely comfortable” with defending such a person.

Paul Ryan Will Not Help Trump Anymore – Trump Throws a Twitter Fit

The little boy in Donald Trump raised his ugly head again. This time, to pick a fight with Republican House Speaker, Paul Ryan.

Since the audio/video of Trump’s 2005 womanizing ways came to light on Friday, Ryan publicly disavowed Donald Trump saying he was “sickened” by Trump’s statements about groping and forcing himself on women. Ryan and Trump were scheduled to hold a joint event on Saturday, but Ryan disinvited Trump after the recording went public.

On Monday, Ryan took it a step further, telling House members that his goal is no longer to get Trump elected, but to spend more time trying helping other Republicans running for reelection down ballot. Trump of course, failed to understand his own role in forcing Ryan to take such a position. He took to the twitter machine to lash out at the House Speaker.

Asked to respond to Trump’s tweet tantrum, Ryan’s spokeswoman said, “The speaker is going to spend the next month focused entirely on protecting our congressional majorities in order to advance our ‘Better Way’ agenda.”

You can expect more retaliation from Trump in 3,2,1

Hillary Beats Trump Again in Second Presidential Debate

CNN’s David Gergen is usually very measured in his interpretation of political matters. So after the second presidential debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, Gergen offered his take on who won the debate. He concluded that Trump’s chances of winning the White House “evaporated Sunday night.”

In other words, Trump lost…again!

Whatever chance Donald Trump still had of capturing the White House largely evaporated Sunday night in his second debate with Hillary Clinton.
Coming off the worst 10 days of any campaign in recent history, Trump desperately needed a win in order to reverse his slide in the polls. He was indeed better than in the first debate and she was not as commanding. Even so, he blew his opportunity for victory in the first 20 minutes and could never fully recover. CNN’s poll found that by 57-34%, a majority of voters watching them thought she got the best of him.
His loss came through a series of bizarre moments. The first was his surprise pre-debate appearance with four female accusers of Bill Clinton. While a case can be made for re-hearing their claims of long ago, the event seemed like a stunt and Trump never made real use of it in the debate.
But more damning still was the way he handled the disgusting video from 11 years ago in which he made vulgar sexual remarks. Trump could possibly have achieved a measure of forgiveness if he had issued a sincere, thoughtful apology about his past as well as some ugly incidents in this campaign. But his apology was limited in scope, seemed slightly dismissive, and went off track when he mixed ISIS into the conversation.

Obama on Trump Tape – It’s “Disturbing” and “Unbelievable Rhetoric” – Video

Here is something amazing, something you’ve never seen or heard of before – the President of the United States had to comment on a the words of a Republican presidential nominee, who said that he sexually assault women and that he gets away with it because of his fame.

While campaigning for Tammy Duckworth in Chicago, the President commented about the self-inflicted perils of Donald Trump.

“One of the most disturbing things about this election is just the unbelievable rhetoric coming from the top of the Republican ticket. I don’t need to repeat it, there are children in the room.”

“Demeaning women, degrading women, but also minorities, immigrants, people of other faiths, mocking the disabled, insulting our troops, insulting our veterans — that tells you a couple of things. That tells you that he’s insecure enough that he pumps himself up by putting other people down, not a character trait that I would advise for someone in the Oval Office. It tells you he doesn’t care much about the basic values we try to impart to our kids. It tells you he would be careless with the civility and respect that a real vibrant Democracy requires.”

John McCain – “Cindy and I will not vote for Donald Trump”

It took a lot to get Arizona Senator John McCain to this point. He has put up with a lot of name calling from Donald Trump, but when it became clear that Donald Trump was okay with sexually abusing and groping women, the Arizona senator said that was the last straw.

McCain released the following statement, assuring voters that he and Cindy will not be pulling the lever for Trump in November.

“In addition to my well known differences with Donald Trump on public policy issues, I have raised questions about his character after his comments on Prisoners of War, the Khan Gold Star family, Judge Curiel and earlier inappropriate comments about women. Just this week, he made outrageous statements about the innocent men in the Central Park Five case.

“As I said yesterday, there are no excuses for Donald Trump’s offensive and demeaning comments in the just released video; no woman should ever be victimized by this kind of inappropriate behavior. He alone bears the burden of his conduct and alone should suffer the consequences.

“I have wanted to support the candidate our party nominated. He was not my choice, but as a past nominee, I thought it was important I respect the fact that Donald Trump won a majority of the delegates by the rules our party set. I thought I owed his supporters that deference.

“But Donald Trump’s behavior this week, concluding with the disclosure of his demeaning comments about women and his boasts about sexual assaults, make it impossible to continue to offer even conditional support for his candidacy. Cindy, with her strong background in human rights and respect for women fully agrees with me on this.

“Cindy and I will not vote for Donald Trump. I have never voted for a Democratic presidential candidate and we will not vote for Hillary Clinton. We will write in the name of some good conservative Republican who is qualified to be President.”
