[Mobius 1]

According the PBS Frontline doc, Trump's reasons for wanting to run for President (this time around) can be traced back to the White House correspondents dinner in 2011 where he was thoroughly roasted and humiliated by Obama. Since Trump is the kind of person who never gets talked down to or put in his place, he vowed revenge on everybody who laughed at him by proving them wrong and showing he could actually run for President.

If this leads to the collapse of the current GOP and their pandering to the lowest dregs of society, Obama should be raised to sainthood.

 

[shiba5]

Apparently he's contemplative and contrite. This might actually be some variant of a real, unqualified apology.

Fuck his apology. He should be in jail.

 

[brandonh83]

"I apologize if you were offended."

That's not gonna cut jack shit.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

Trump went from alt-right to control-alt-delete.

Wow. What is this trash?

susan hutchison is human garbage and i am embarrassed to share a state with her

 

[Knuckle Sandwich]

Hannity says Trump is about to make a video statement. Oh this should be good. You know he is going to talk about Bill's sex life.

Video statement makes him look like such a chump. Do it live and take questions, ya coward.

 

[massoluk]

Utah's governor withdrew support for Trump. The GOP is just gonna leave him out in the cold to freeze until November 9th so they can say "I didn't support him..."

Didn't want to see this buried, but here's your last stop if you want to get out, GOP endorsers.

 

[CHC]

My money is on an extremely canned and rehearsed apology written by someone else. We've seen "teleprompter Trump" a scarce few times in this election - we will see it again tonight.

BNO News ‏@BNONews 27m27 minutes ago
Washington State Republican Party Chair Susan Hutchison defends Trump comments, says they "were made when he was a Democrat"

I'm dead. I can't go on.

 

[User1608]

Thank you Ana.
It's empty words until they drop support.

She's absolutely right. They need to "do the right thing", as she said.

 

[Thoraxes]

That's not gonna cut jack shit.

Man, this sounds like an easy - and great - film idea. Start it off with the Dinner and chronicle this carnival of stupid.

 

[brandonh83]

I'm dead. I can't go on.

My god, that changes everything!

 

[RootCause]

I just hope he doesn't upload it at 3am.

 

[Get'sMad]

Guys there's still a little over an hour left before the calendar turns to a new day...... still time for something else to be revealed on this amazing day!

 

[rokkerkory]

This lady in the pink shirt on CNN is truly a terrible person for defending Trump....She is saying this is okay because it is the "statute of limitations"...as if somehow 11 years makes this invalid...

edit: apparently her name is Scottie Nell Hughes. She implied that it's a good thing that there is a statute of limitation on rape...

Did Scottie Nell Hughes sell her soul at some point? She's now implying there's a good reason there's a statue of limitations on charges of assault/rape in an attempt to discredit the women coming out now against Trump.

Her and Katrina are the worst POS garbage ever.

 

[ArkhamFantasy]

I wonder if he will use stupid hang gestures while reading from the prompter.

 

[giga]

NYT Sunday column out early with actual accounts of sexual assault from Trump.

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/09/opinion/sunday/donald-trump-groper-in-chief.html?smid=tw-share

 

[Tranqueris]

An apology isn't going to stop all the negative ads and the new sexual assault allegations coming out now.

 

[BennyBlanco]

sad!

 

[minor effort]

What's his apology going to be? "I'm sorry this was caught on tape and is currently destroying what was left of my campaign"?

 

[Jerbs]

Still waiting for a response from the governor of Oklahoma, Mary Fallin. She has been a staunch supporter of Trump, so her silence thus far is revealing.

 

[BrutishMrFish]

What's his apology going to be? "I'm sorry this was caught on tape and is currently destroying what was left of my campaign"?

"My microphone was hacked."

 

[Sir Abacus]

A real apology? See Trump doesn't make those. Hell will be completely frozen if he does.

Tuesday morning then?

 

[JHoNNy1OoO]

Wooooo Video time baby! The outsider just had a bunch of insiders decide on what he was going to say and most definitely did multiple takes! No politician here!

 

[brandonh83]

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...something-so-bad-he-had-to-apologize-kind-of/

I just now actually listened to the audio. Reading it was bad enough, but yeah he actually is just a giant pile of shit.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

As an historian I'm excited to see what the 7th Party System looks like now that Trump has fulfilled his destiny as the Chosen One and destroyed the GOP.

 

[kess]

The GOP losing college educated voters for a generation is a real possibility, and is going to contribute to the direction of the country. Now, about all those new voters Trump brought to the party...

 

[ShockingAlberto]

So will he apologize or spin? Or both?

"Bill Clinton..."

 

[Tarydax]

sad!

Oh my gooooooooooooooooooooooooooood.

 

[tedtropy]

I think it was brave of Hannity to bring on two completely liked-minded commentators to confirm that we should all be focusing on Bill's infidelities instead. Bold and inspired.

Wow. What is this trash?

That's good. That's damn good.

 

[VanquishUK]

sad!

LOL

 

[alternade]

sad!

Omg I ded

 

[Deleted member 20415]

I'm dead. I can't go on.

So if he gets credit for being a Democrat at the time... How do you think they'll react when Jesus's miracles get credited to the Jews...

 

[Slayer-33]

sad!

Heeeelp

 

[subrock]

I never watch 24 hour news, and CNN is reminding me why. The woman they just had on blaming the victims for their timing is disgusting. The fact that they give equal time to that nonsense is so saddening. Got forbid we vet this leech before voting for him, nah let's just stop collecting allegations and put our fingers in our ears.

 

[Wiz]

Video statement incoming. Let's see how he handles this.

 

[Opto]

I know it's been posted before but

 

[Professor Beef]

"I apologize if you were offended."

"If you're mad, then my bad."

 

[User1608]

sad!

LOL

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Think of all the careers this man has ruined in one campaign

Like honestly. Years from now some will still be doing politics and some will do TV etc, but whenever their names get brought up, or something they say pops up on social media, their endorsement of this man will be brought up too. It's like a brand or scarlet letter, this shit is going to follow every one of these individuals everywhere they go

 

[brandonh83]

"Bill Clinton..."

It's what every single person that has tried to defend this has said. What Clinton did got him impeached. This isn't some weapon like him and his supporters think. They find it to be an effective diversion when it makes absolutely no arguments in his favor. Not a one.

 

[Krejlooc]

sad!

not pictured: seig heil

 

[BSsBrolly]

sad!

Fuuuuuuuuuck

 

[BocoDragon]

It's fun to watch the Trump surrogates dance.

 

[acklame]

Holy fuck

 

[Tranqueris]

The daughter thing always gives me some Berserk flashbacks.

 

[WordAssassin]

Two things I noticed:

1) those super low res stars on his statement? What??

2) His statement isn't even about what he said it's just saying he's gonna be doing debate prep this weekend BUT I THOUGHT HE DIDN'T DO DEBATE PREP!?!


What would happen if more stuff came out, and the Republican Party basically dropped Trump as a whole, yet somehow he still won the election? Is such a thing even possible? Would they try to just immediately impeach him?

 

[Dash_Riprock]

It's fun to watch the Trump surrogates dance.

And then to see their names grayed out.
