"I might have sold some condos to the russians" is apparently an understatement for "got payed hundreds of millions by russian interests".
By now the Hillary camp must be half-wishing for a postponement of the election date.

Based upon what I've learned about her voracious lust for research, the odds are good she already knew, or at least suspected. Regardless, the odds are good she's already rehearsed a line of attack based upon it.
 
There's more than just votes at stake for Trump if more videos are released. His brand has already taken a hit, but it could disappear completely if enough terrible stuff comes out about him.

The worst part of what Donald is doing now is that he's committed to sucking any joy out of watching him go down in flames. It's going to purely designed to degrade and humiliate Hillary Clinton in the same way his birtherism was designed to degrade and humiliate President Obama. He doesn't consider women or minorities his equals and seeing them with more respect, prestige and power than him leaves him seething with an anger he can't control.

The real question yet to be answered is why none of the 16 other Republican primary candidates didn't take on Trump directly. People like Cruz, Rubio and Christie -- all substantial figures with their own followings -- fawned over Trump, even after he started insulting and demeaning them. I suspect Christie -- veteran New Jersey pol and ex-U.S. Attorney -- could have taken Trump down almost immediately if he had wanted to. But he focused on Rubio and Cruz. They all have a lot to answer for.

They never took him seriously as a candidate, and they assumed he would fade out quickly, but that his supporters were positively rabid about him. None of them wanted to alienate those supporters, because they wanted to scoop them up after Trump flamed out. They knew that if anyone threw dirt at Trump in a big way, they could take him down, but in doing so they would take themselves down with him. No one had the guts to do it until it was one on one with Trump, but that never happened, and it was too late.

FWIW, I don't think he sees anyone as being his equal.
 
I just read that Trump held a pre-debate news conference featuring Juanita Broderick, Paula Jones, Kathleen Willie and Kathy Shelton. (I didn't recognize that last name. She was raped when she was 12. Hillary Clinton was the rapist's defense lawyer)


It won't work, Donald. You're toast.

It's a massive flip-flop, and colossal pandering. He defended Slick Willie in 1998, said he was the real victim and demeaned Clinton's accusers.

He is burnt toast. Still flaming.

I'm sure Hillary has a zinger or three lined up. One I'd like to hear is, "Mr. Trump, Mr. Clinton is not running for President of the United States. I am."

Best comment on the Republican Party's Trump problem I've seen yet:

Hey Republicans, how's it feel to be forced against your best interests to carry something to term?

It just shows that he's changed.

Trump used to call Paula Jones a "loser," but now he believes her. Why can't people believe him that he's different from the man we heard on the tape (which is over a decade old)?

I had a similar response pop into my head yesterday: "It may surprise you to learn, Donald, that my husband is not running for President."

I think it's a nice mix of condescension and humor, while still bringing attention to the fact that such attacks are a complete non-sequitur.
 
Does anyone remember the last time a candidate got destroyed in all three debates? If I recall correctly, McCain lost all of the debates but they were closer than the two thus far.

With all the sniffing I fear the next scandal may be: "Yes, I sold cocaine to Donald Trump..."
