With Mr. Trump sliding in the presidential race, senior Democratic officials had already been nudging Mrs. Clinton to rearrange her campaign schedule and advertising in ways that could help lift Democrats in close congressional races. Now, top Clinton advisers said they would consider doing just that.

The campaign was planning to survey an array of Republican-leaning states this week, including Arizona, Georgia, Missouri and Indiana, to determine how competitive Mrs. Clinton is with Mr. Trump, according to a senior Clinton adviser who spoke on condition of anonymity.

Sending Mrs. Clinton to those states may be of little assistance to the party’s candidates, but an infusion of money dedicated to voter turnout could ensure that she enters the White House with a solid Senate majority and help Democrats make substantial gains in the House.

Democratic strategists involved in House and Senate races said they envisioned Mr. Trump’s collapse precipitating a broad shift in the political landscape, with tossup races moving firmly into their hands, and campaigns that were once long shots suddenly becoming competitive. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee planned to do rapid polling early this week to measure the impact of Mr. Trump on the House battlefield.

Democrats said they had no intention of allowing Republicans to wash out the stain of associating with Mr. Trump: “Voters will see this for the craven act of self-preservation that it is, and it won’t save them,” said Meredith Kelly, a spokeswoman for the committee.

That abiding loyalty is what alarms party strategists: Even if just 5 percent of the most reliable Republican voters do not vote or cast a ballot only for Mr. Trump, it would ensure that Republicans lose nearly every close congressional race.

Former Representative Thomas M. Reynolds of New York, a former chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee, said party polling had found voters tilting toward Democrats in congressional elections, even before the latest revelations about Mr. Trump. His setbacks threatened to push voters further away from Republicans, Mr. Reynolds said.

But Mr. Reynolds cautioned that lawmakers might be at risk of fatal backlash from Mr. Trump’s supporters if they oppose him in the final weeks of the race, leaving no easy option. Resentful Trump backers, Mr. Reynolds said, “could end up coming in and voting for Trump and stopping there.”

I wonder what the odds are that those women are going to heckle Clinton and do something outrageous to try and get a reaction

With Trump doing what he is doing, I'm not ruling anything out

Oh, bitch bitch bitch.
Please consider that the human manifestation of everything the American right wing really believes was mocked so hard by the first black president that he ran for office on a platform baring all of the unspoken conservative id for all to see, and the end result was his utter humiliation and destruction at the hands of the first woman president while simultaneously devastating American conservatism

We like a good narrative in America.
