    What I tried to state before, maybe that was in a separate thread is that if you don't know he is "this" guy by now then that is a problem.

    It probably is too late, it would be throwing the election although the election may be thrown already. Personally I think its tiresome how big a deal this is being made.

    I just think the fact this is running its rounds for two days heavy is too much. The sensitivity in America is just tuurrible.

    The election was thrown the second the GOP nominated Trump so really it comes down to either having Hillary win while the GOP embarrasses themselves supporting Trump or Hillary winning while the GOP tries to get back some semblance of self respect and credibility. If I'm a Republican up for election right now, I spend the next month bashing the hell out of Trump and separating myself from him as much as possible no matter what happens.

    This alone is what the trumpettes like tmacfor35, Tesserac, RL, my next door neighbors, my in-laws etc., don't get. This isn't a f***ing reality show. We're not trying to get better tv ratings for the country. The things he says and does are a HUGE deal as the wrong words out of the President's mouth can tank markets and set the world on fire. This isn't a f***ing joke. The complete inability to control himself no matter who he's talking to or at is a gigantic problem. It's one thing to have a candidate that speaks his mind. It's a whole other thing when the things in his mind are so completely f***ed...and he still feels the need to say them out loud.

    Tiresome? It hasn't even been 24 hours. You just lack stamina.

    This election feels like a segment from the movie "Mean Girls". It is sad and it is working.

    I am? Trump equates his discussions of grabbing women by the p***y without their consent as normal 'locker room' banter and I can tell you know if a fellow Marine in our platoon was bragging about groping women without asking them, they would have a unpleasant night sleeping at the barracks.

    Trumpettes? I am voting for conservative principles. Just because I am voting for Trump doesn't mean I am voting for Trump. It means I want my beliefs to be the way we live by.

    I think any man that argues this much for Hilary has lost his way.

    Eloquent as always. Voting for somebody means you're voting for somebody. Who knew?

    Serious question: what conservative principles do you feel Trump espouses?

    I'm not clear...are you voting for trump because you are voting for trump?

    If that means you want your beliefs to be the way we live by...does that mean sexual assault is a-ok in your book?

    I think many people are also just looking at what he said and not what he did. Him allegedly doing exactly what he said make this that much worse.

    You are voting for failed concepts as a proxy to justify your vote for a failure of a human being.

    Your children will be embarrassed by your vote.

    Maybe, if you're lucky, one day, you will too.

    Very little. But Hilary is even further apart.

    The problem with the whole voting for principal not the man argument is that trump doesn't even hold those same principals.

    Family values?
    Smaller government?
    Free markets?

    Basically the only principal he holds to is that he thinks you should be able to say whatever you want without being labeled boorish.

    Hilary is more conservative than trump believe it or not.

    Trump is conservative only in his espoused immigration views and his belief that whites are held down by pc run amok which apparently is a new conservative issue.
