Trump runs for POTUS/ Trumped Up! Part VII

I bet he's paid for a few abortions. Possibly out of the foundation.

Or has a love child or two.

That would be a misnomer for Trump as it so doubtful that he has ever loved anyone but himself. Violated? Yes. Loved? No.

Yeah I never understood why a child of love should be a bad thing.

Probably he only aborts the ugly ones.

I wonder if this was coordinated with the Clinton campaign, to set up Trump for the debate.

It's certainly something that Clinton can point to for the last topic of "temperament to be president" or whatever that is.

Then again, Trump's wife also provided her with ammunition. "He got goaded into boasting about sexual assault by a reporter. Even if he is telling the truth in denying it ever happened, what is going to be the response when a foreign leader goads him into putting his foot in his mouth as President?"
 
from Miles Jupp in the News Quiz,

"Of course, Hillary Clinton is everything Donald Trump hates - a woman of his own age"

Right now the country is so divided that the feeling is, we have to do anything we can, anyway we can, to prevent the other side from having their way. And I'm sorry, I see that coming from conservatives and Republicans, I honestly don't see that coming from progressives and Democrats. At least not to the same extent.

Thanks for your reasoned response. My guess is that if the roles were reversed, you'd be seeing exactly the same behavior. And I think history bears that out.

I don't know what history you're referring to but off hand I would tell you emphatically I don't agree.

There is abundant evidence President Bush deliberately misled the American public and Congress when he said he had evidence Saddam Hussein had a weapons of mass destruction program. A case has been made that some of the extrajudicial practices Bush allowed at Guantanamo and in other places are violations of international law. Yet there was little push within the Democratic Party to try and bring Bush up on charges. President Obama explicitly ruled out investigating the Bush Administration for war crimes and I think most Democrats (like me) felt that was the best course. If the roles had been reversed how can anyone say Obama wouldn't have been investigated by the Republicans in Congress with the aim being to develop a criminal case?

To bring this back on topic, look at Trump's comments on Obamacare.
On day one of the Trump Administration, we will ask Congress to immediately deliver a full repeal of Obamacare. Link to Donald J. Trump dot com

In the first debate Hillary Clinton responded that at least under Obamacare twenty million Americans have health insurance who previously had none. She said don't do something to end their health care. Is Obamacare perfect? No. Can Obamacare be improved? Yes. She said let's work together to make it better.

What is Trump's plan? There are details on his website but he seldom talks about it. Is he really for expanding healthcare coverage or is he just against Obamacare because he knows that is a way to pick up votes? He needs to explain his plan to the American people and explain how it will be better. Let us make up our minds. Tell us how his plan will work, how it will be better.

One of the ways Trump will expand healthcare is by putting more people to work. To many people it sounds more like campaign rhetoric than any commitment on his part to expand healthcare:
To reduce the number of individuals needing access to programs like Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program we will need to install programs that grow the economy and bring capital and jobs back to America. The best social program has always been a job – and taking care of our economy will go a long way towards reducing our dependence on public health programs.

I've always had a job and I've never had employer-provided health insurance. I have it because I was in the armed forces and signed up for the Veteran's Administration health care insurance. My wife has it because she was in a unionized job. Her health insurance came through the union. She worked right alongside people who were non-union and they had no health insurance.
 
I love this stage of the campaign. As best I can tell, Trump and surrogates are all talking about election fraud.

When that's all you can talk about, you're toast.

Well he did come out in favor of Term Limits today....
If Trump blows the final debate..a reasonable expectation the way he has been going.....it might be de facto over by Thursday Morning. Donald has apparently spent NO time in prep for this debate. Which indicated he is going to go full bore crazy...the first half hour of the second debate on steroids.

Donald is the one that talks about how hot Ivanka is and how he would be dating her if she wasn't his daughter. And he is a sexual predator.

Yes, I understand the background. It was nonetheless a disgusting comment.

I understand you hate Trump. You needn't compete with him in terms of loathsome comments.
