    Interesting that no one ever had any complaints about Trump until now.

    Does that include the 1996 lawsuit Trump settled stemming from an alleged groping encounter in '92?

    https://www.bostonglobe.com/news/politics/2016/04/16/trump/P6jVWXAzaG12Ou5dPXYCDL/story.html

    This passage from Trump's '96 deposition refuting testimony about comments he was said to have made during a limo ride caught my eye:

    “I never made that statement, I never would make that statement,” Trump said. “Why would I make a statement like that? I have more respect for women than anybody.”

    Twenty years and counting and the same claim...

      The worst part is that, when Trump loses, the Reps will think the reason why is because he wasn't conservative enough. They'll come back with a Cruz 2.0 candidate that will blabber on and on about Jesus and what not, instead of realizing why Trump actually lost. It was his moderate policies (some of them), it was because he's an ass. I think that would be setting them up for another loss in 4 years.

      Trump ran one of the worst presidential campaigns I have seen. He never really sought out to get a ground game which is a must. He constantly was attacking other republicans instead of Clinton. He did dumb things on twitter with unnecessary fights nobody cared about but made Trump look more like the reality tv star he was versus a serious presidential candidate. Newt Gingrich had the best perspective on Trump when he said there was a little Trump and a big Trump....there is too much little Trump which can only be controlled when he is reading a prepared speech from a teleprompter.

      Forget 2020... Cruz would have won in 2016. Trump might have been the only candidate Clinton could beat. The democrats were praying for Trump to win the nomination. Any republican candidate would be up against a biased liberal media but Trump gave them an over abundance of ammunition.

      I don't know if Cruz could have won. I know you won't get this, be the heavy Jesus vibes turn a lot of people off. A lot of the supporters Trump have now are there for him, not conservatism. But Clinton would still be the opponent and she would still be trash, so who knows.

          Blaming the media instead of the guy that lofted them bp balls every week. Sounds about right coming from republicans.

            Im not sure cruz could have won but it would be close. I abs think kadich or paul would be destroying her right now. Paul especially would have tore her up on econ. Not just "gyyynnnaa's beating us". Fucking assclown i could bury that muppet in a debate

                Kasich or Paul would destroy her, but Kasich wouldn't be much better he's just a corporate shill too.

                I'd happily vote for Paul even though I don't agree with flat/consumption taxes

                  Given that Democratic control of the House is highly unlikely, I would imagine she will be primaried from her left in 2020. Whether she can stave off that challenge largely depends upon how her first term goes on balance doesn't it?

                      Of course the media has something to do with it and of course they're in collusion fucking wise up. If you running for election and diehard and Cal were in charge of what the public heard about you what kind of chance do you think you'd have?

                        That's so telling. I'm serious a fiction author could not conjure this character up he tried. This guy is a clown bag unlike anything we've ever been subject to in american culture. He is the definition of the ugly american.

                          Had Trump at the start of his campaign just said no TPP, rework NAFTA, let's review student debt, maternity leave policy and foreign diplomacy policy then shut his damn mouth - he would win in a landside.

                          The man gets in his own way and engages in petty trash talk and name calling. He should have...could have, shown he was above it and these allegations would have washed off him. Hell, I would have voted for him.

                            If I didn't constantly loft them softballs they're shit would sound petty and spiteful. With Trump though, things are landing cause what was said months ago and we were all like "oh he couldn't be that bad could he"....well yeah now we know he is that bad. He's put mgm on notice that if they release the apprentice tapes he's going to sue them blind. That in and of itself says enough. Because I don't say the stupid shit he says, if it was me i'd be like comb through those tapes see if you find something.

                                Blaming the media instead of the guy that lofted them bp balls every week. Sounds about right coming from republicans. I dont know how many times it has to be said but trump could have yap yap yap

                                Of course the media has something to do with it and of course they're in collusion fucking wise up. If you running for election and diehard and Cal were in charge of what the public heard about you what kind of chance do you think you'd have?

                                When the group story gets two minutes on the news and the wikI leaks get 18 seconds or nothing...

                                        This is why I am voting for Trump. Just wish he would have listened to his advisers and stuck to winning issues and not get baited and trapped into going into the weeds where he loses. He wins on the issues so the dems strategy was always to get him off message and unfortunately they succeeded.

                                          If elected, do you believe Trump will cease to be "baited and trapped"? Are the stakes not slightly higher for a President on the world stage?
