conservatives long criticized Pres Obama as the least prepared or qualified of candidates. my thought and response was, if that is true, then only a former president is qualified. in that respect Sec Clinton is as close to being a qualified candidate as we have had. I suppose that is the reason VP's run for the presidency.

beside that non-sense, i believe anyone who is willing or can make tough decisions is qualified to be president

Donald Trump said he had heard worse "locker room banter" from Bill Clinton on the golf course. That may even be true given the sort of talk one would expect from a pair of licentious old philanderers.
But we didn't know that about Bill Clinton when he was elected. He never discussed his sexual conquests publicly on the Howard Stern show. He wasn't already a thrice married adulterer before he even ran.

Bill, like most husbands probably should have listened to his wife more and I'll even speculate that even then she was probably better suited to be president than him.

Those comments by Trump are not, for me, enough to disqualify him from the Presidency but only because they were made in private. I myself have made my share of regrettable private comments. Trump lost my vote months ago for his public antics. The man is a slimeball and unfit for the Presidency.

While I think what he said shows what kind of a$$hat he really is, I agree with you. He was always a slimeball any way you cut it. And the outrage of so many of the other ignorant things he said should be even greater.

There does seem to be something more about this exposure of Trump's nature than just "boys will be boys" talk. This time he was showing he is an honest to gawd sexual predator and that he needs a fair shake of assault and a peppering of bullying in order to properly enjoy his chorizos and huevos rauncheros.

It seems to have penetrated the cauls of many who have been deluded by the 'anyone is better than Hillary' mantra.

The stupidity alone for saying that stuff after he had been wired for audio should actually be the disqualifier. He was wired, then the cameras started rolling as soon as he stepped off the bus. He assumed the edited bits would be discarded. Someone, however, saved it all.
Politicians, in general, are pretty careful about stuff like this because they know it can come back to haunt them. Arrogant billionaire reality TV stars maybe not so much.
