Ben Carson says he's heard lots of "locker room talk" like Trump's. @brikeilarcnn says she hasn't. Carson replies "maybe that's the problem"

Which is more impressive, this charade still going on this deep into the campaign or the alternate reality which has been created as a result of it for a sizeable portion of the American public?

Is this the accidental biggest case study ever done on confirmation bias? I say yes.

Haha wtf does Carson's response even mean

Also, between this and "SAYS WHO?" I'm not sure if anyone is better at bringing out the best out of Republicans than Brianna Keilar.

Dadaramu's memes now all revolve around the fact that it was just locker room talk, he hasn't actually done those things but Bill Clinton has so vote Trump. Also Trump only says mean things but Hillary has done horrible things.
They're starting to repeat themselves in their defense of Trump.

All I really wanted from 2016 madness was a world series between the Cubs and Indians that went to Game 7 and ended after 15 innings... this has gone way too far now.

Starting to entertain this idea a bit more and more... though they set the absurdity and humor meters a bit too high for my liking the last two years.

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/12/us/politics/early-voting-registration.html?_r=0

Vote-by-mail requests among Hispanics in Florida, Mr. Mook added, are up 77 percent. And voter registration data there backs up his assertion that they are breaking for the Democratic Party in unprecedented numbers. Since Jan. 1, just 16 percent of new Hispanic voters registered as Republicans.

Bah Gawd...

Not surprised at this at all. It was only a matter of time especially after the moderators got him to say he had never acted on anything at the debate.

Rick Tyler, a former spokesman for Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz, defined the GOP split as one between "the establishment and some principled conservatives" against what he called the "Breitbart Wing" of the party, named for the conservative news website. Steve Bannon, a long-time Breitbart executive, is a top adviser to Trump and has been a frequent critic of the current Republican leadership, saying they have been ineffective in battling President Obama's administration, as well as the Clintons.

"The Trump campaign knows they are going to lose and are consolidating his base to create a lucrative post-election anti-Hillary organization," Tyler said. "That same organization will blame the establishment for the loss and attempt to take over the GOP from the RNC (Republican National Committee) down."

Nice, good to hear that the Right will tear itself to pieces after this hideous display. The nation will be better with a SOBER opposition, but I fear this will be more drunk uncle talk.

Watching and reading the coverage now is so strange. Trump and his team are saying one thing but now no one is backing it up. The attitude seems to be the next bombshell is going to hit any time now because they all now there are more videos. Trump himself is going nuts on Ryan and McCain and is taking them all down.

I've never seen anothing like this election.

:)

Trump is delivering another rambling speech in Florida. He's all over the place. It's fun people watching the goofs in the audience at least. Quite a few people seem to be baffled by his bambling, which is not stopping them from popping at his insult lines.

"I want to have veto power. I used to be so popular....There are people in the audience who used to have good jobs 18 years ago, now they are working 3 jobs. I am also older and ready to work harder. It's 115 degrees in here, I am losing weight." - that is almost verbatim

Hillary wants 600 million immigrants to come to the US with her open borders. Sell your houses if that happens because America will be all over. This will be the last stand for America. Pat Buchanan says my debate performance was one of the finest of all time. The GOP should be supporting me. There is a sinister deal going on. Crooked Hillary. The generals are spinning in their graves.

He claims there are 15000 in attendance, but it appears to be a rally in a Fairgrounds shed.

"I won numerous environmental awards. I want clean air and water. Al Gore joined Hillary..this poor guy...what happened to him? Obama thinks climate change is the biggest problem facing us. I don't know what I am going to do if I don't win. ISIS! We should never have pulled out of Iraq. I said so back then. My mic was broken at the first debate, it's interesting, at the second debate....let me tell ya...the guy running the Presidential debates used to work for Bill Clinton. RIGGED! We annihilated Hillary the other day. "

45 + mins in and you can see the blank expressions everywhere as the audience is zoned out.

Surprisingly, Cracked offers a level-headed explanation for Trump's appeal. It can be boiled down to "he's an asshole, but he's our asshole."

The end in the sense that every Republican is now going to be asked whether or not they'll vote for Trump even though he groped women. It's a "legitimate rape" moment for their entire party, the House could be flipped.

So, the God Emperor is going to sue a bunch of news organizations. Can't wait to see how this works out.

For as many lawsuits as he's been involved in, you'd think he'd know how discovery works. The Times is gonna lap Fahrenthold for the Pulitzer if Trump sues them.
