You made your bed when you nominated tRump; now lie in it.

Another adage: lie down with sons of bitches dogs, wake up with fleas, or in this case, it's lie down with Trump, wake up with bed bug bites.

He shares their hatred of people who don't look like them, don't act like them, don't make as money as them, don't worship like them, don't love the same people they do, and so on.

He made the correct noises and all these racist, homophobic, sexist sick fucks came running his way.

And know the remaining republicans are trying to take party back from Trump ...... so to speak . They know he was going to lose so now after the tape release they are trying to cover the damn that was bulging and now it has broken . Some were probably hoping they could keep stuff to a rumor like Roger Ailes or Bill Cosby

Gotta love them wacky Republicans! Starting in 1980 with Reagan & minions, through Bill Clinton's interregnum, carrying on enthusiastically with the W. crew, elevating the dazzling Sarah Palin for VPOTUS, cackling at their own obstruction vs. Obama...the straight-up straight-faced Republican powers have worked dirty & long to bring their Party & our country to EXACTLY this point.

The ones who begin to act as if Trump is a shocking stranger suddenly gone wrong are tricky liars who are hanging on to Donald's ticket as long as their silence might gain them a single extra vote for themselves, in trickle-down from the Republicans pulling the lever for Trump & the whole GOP undercard.

Witness their incredible hope that a "good performance" in a debate might rescue their candidate from being himself. Please note: these feckless politicos--in an unbroken arc back to Reagan's 'hero' citizens such as Ollie North--do not say they want Trump to change: they want him to WIN.”

Statement is so true . Winning at all costs . The sad part there is now a certain percentage of the population that will not believe the truth at all ...........

Something else is going to have to break open or the alt right / fox discredited to all . Would be interesting what to know the percentage of the population .

Found this article few days ago , thought it was pretty interesting " In the 1990s, Pittsburgh billionaire Richard Mellon Scaife provided at least $1.8 million to fund the “Arkansas Project,” a conspiracy to dig up dirt "

Little ways down in article it is stated the Arkansas Project was responsible of less support for Gore 's election

http://www.pensitoreview.com/2007/02/19/scaife-recants-arkansas-project/

Was going to make a thread , wanted to see how the next couple days played out first

There has been a lot of damage done .

Now it is time to turn the ship around .......so to speak

They see his treatment of women as "being a real man", and it goes along with his whole "saying what needs to be said " shtick. They say that every man (or every real man) talks like this to/about women, and everyone that doesn't is gay. "You may find it sexist, but the only alternative is Hillary". Anyone that's unendorsed him is a traitor, and once Trump is elected (and once I become a unicorn), we're going to need to build 1000 gallows in Washington DC.
These are things I've been reading on other sites I browse through. You see it as a bug. Trumpers see it as a feature.
