    People said this all during the primaries too and stats showed that it never happened. He consistently polled around his results in the same way as other candidates historically do.

    Why? Think of Bill Cosby. Same scenario there until the floodgates opened. People don't come forward because no one will believe them - until the circumstances change. Trump's admission of his attitudes on the tape opened the door for these women to actually be able to come forward and be believed.

    That, of course, ignores the people that actually did come forward in the past in the documented lawsuits over the years. But it doesn't suit your reality, so I'm sure you'll just ignore all of that.

    These women are coming forward because their fear of being attacked by a very rich man is gone. Stronger in numbers. Plus there are rich Clinton backers offerring to pay their legal bills if trump goes after them.

    Not to mention Anderson Cooper trapped him in a lie during the debate which undoubtedly pissed those women off.


    “You bragged that you have sexually assaulted women. Do you understand that?” Cooper asked. Trump insisted that wasn’t the case. Cooper asked three times whether Trump denied that he had ever done such a thing. Finally, Trump replied, “No, I have not,” and quickly changed the subject.

    Cooper knew exactly what he was doing. He wasn't letting Trump off the hook there. And for Trump, he decided on the spot, as he often does, to lie. But this was no typical lie. It probably was a very difficult one for Trump himself. He must knew that once he said that, there will be people coming out. He did it anyway. Now he got no other options. He cannot now said yea, I did it, but that's 15 years ago and I have changed since. He has cornered himself so much with his own lies that his only avenue left is to deny forever.

    The more WikiLeaks post these non-sense, the more they look like they are a Russian's front.

    If the WH does respond to Russia with a cyber-attack that is known to the public, it more likely mean escalation when Russia will undoubtedly response back. If you understand anything about election history (and common sense), when you are leading, and leading by a huge margin, the last thing you want to do is to bring in a massive event, and an escalation between Russia and US certainly qualify as one, that introduces unknown into the election. If anything, the Clinton campaign probably is busy telling the Obama administration to hold off until the election is over.

    And if you keep up with what the US has said for at least 2-4 years now, you know that the Obama administration had said repeatedly that they treat cyber attacks, hack, terrorism, and such seriously and will respond proportionally. The last example was their respond to the Sony hack by NK.

    I thought the wikileaks had the goods? They are more disappointing than Trump's pimp game skills :p

    All you are doing is confirming that you have a reading disability. I said the complete opposite, Junior. Putting aside your juvenile posting here in D&D, lets move on the the latest political poll numbers for TEXAS!

    Hillary Clinton, in the latest poll conducted in Texas, is within 4 percentage points of Trump, chump - in TEXAS! Texas!!

    Highlights
    Donald Trump’s lead over Hillary Clinton in Texas has mostly evaporated, according to a new poll.

    Donald Trump’s lead over Hillary Clinton in Texas is now within the margin of error in a new poll, his smallest edge yet in the nation’s biggest red state.

    Trump, the Republican candidate for president, is leading Clinton, the Democratic candidate, 47 percent to her 43 percent among likely voters in the poll, conducted by SurveyUSA, a leading national, independent, nonpartisan polling firm. Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson garnered 3 percent, Green Party candidate Jill Stein received 1 percent, with 5 percent undecided.

    The poll — commissioned by WFAA-TV in Dallas, KVUE-TV in Austin, and other Texas television stations and released Thursday night — represents a tightening of the race since a Texas Lyceum poll, conducted Sept. 1-12, that had Trump leading Clinton by 7 points among likely voters in a four-way race and by 5 points among registered voters in a two-way race.

    The SurveyUSA poll contacted 800 adults in Texas, including 734 registered voters, 638 of whom were considered likely to vote. The margin of error is plus or minus 4 points.


    It was conducted Monday through Wednesday, days after a tape from 2005 emerged of Trump speaking in vulgar terms about assaulting women and after several high-profile Republicans had urged him to drop out.

    “The electorate is volatile,” according to an analysis of the results by SurveyUSA. “It is possible Trump will carry Texas by more traditional margins than this data set shows. It is also possible that the state’s score will be settled in the single digits.”

    There is no way Gary Johnson only gets 3 percent. I almost know more than that personally.

    Yes it is interesting how the week that the bottom drops out on Trump a member of the Duma comes out and says that Trump is the only US candidate that can make peace with Russia and Wikileaks starts releasing more hacked emails and promises to release more everyday up to election day.
