Break out the shovels... Trump's video apology. It's not an apology at all.


A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.

Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich

It would sure be easier than grabbing by the pu$$y. grin

Donald Trump Still Thinks The Central Park Five Are Guilty (They Aren’t)
Quote
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump still believes the “Central Park Five,” a group of black and Hispanic men who were convicted but later exonerated in the 1989 rape of a female jogger in New York City’s Central Park, are guilty, he told CNN this week. The news comes more than a decade after the men were cleared by DNA evidence and a confession by the actual culprit about his role in the crime.

Methinks Mr. de Niro is somewhat peeved at the Drumpf:



I particularly like the "he's a punk" statement, it's very Nue Yawk.

I've been bemused/appalled/alarmed at the progress of Trump throughout the campaign, and there is still a large contingent of apologists who excuse the most reprehensible behavior of "their candidate". I thought it was obvious at the outset, but many were fooled. I think, like Obama in 2008, he was lauded with attributes he never possessed by those with particular desired results. He is so far beyond a "flawed candidate". He's just a vile, vulgar creature in a suit. Yet.. He'll still get 40% of the vote.

I'm now fully convinced that a ham sandwich would get 40% of the vote.

Only if you put a "R" next to the sandwich on the ballot. I am convinced Democrats are a little more discerning. If you ran Hitler as the Democratic candidate, a lot of them would defect.

And where the hell are they going to come from? Look at the huge lineup the Republicans fielded. Not a single one of them worth a tinker's dam.
Bernie was pretty good as candidates go, in fact, he was a great candidate! Promised the moon and stars and might have even made good on a few of them. But personally I had some doubts about whether he was really prepared to be president.

As things stand I'm perfectly satisfied with the Democratic candidate. I feel she is a "real candidate" she's prepared for the office and knows, perhaps better than anyone else, exactly what she's signing up for.


Good coffee, good weed, and time on my hands...

I think that is certainly so. You've got to remember she is a lawyer and a politician, not some housewife. I am pretty sure she was consulted on just about every political decision Bill ever made.

Too bad she could not control his non-political decisions as well!
