    "And Donald Trump, as he is prone to do, he didn't build the building himself. He just slapped his name on it and took credit for it."

    Sick burn. Obama in spite of his "goody goody two shoes", compromising, mediating, management style gets in a few decent jabs now and again.

    I think you're giving the Bush administration way too much credit.

    I'm surprised Trump hasn't brought up the Lena Dunham support for Hillary. That's low-hanging fruit. A child molester that conservatives hate.

    MSNBC mediasplaining that women who are victims of sexual assault often don't come forward right away because they're worried they will be shamed, or branded as liars is quite something.

    If only someone had made this point earlier, and criticized those who would shame such women.

    Is there anything Donald Trump could do that would make you admit, "Eh, this guy, maybe this wasn't the best guy for this."

    It's incredible how this is just stated as settled fact in straight news stories now.

    Pence: 'Something missing' from polls showing Trump trailing

    Both polls were conducted after last Friday’s release of a recording of Trump from 2005 in which the real estate mogul can be heard describing in vulgar terms how his celebrity status allowed him to sexually assault women with impunity.

    Let's parse this:

    I'm automatically attracted to beautiful women — I just start kissing them, it's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait.

    It is not sexual assault to start kissing a woman. It is certainly not so inarguable that it is that it should be started matter of factly, lacking context, in a straight news story.

    And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab 'em by the pussy.

    The "pussy" line is preceded by this: "They let you do it."

    Not sexual assault.

    Some people who disagree with you are sometimes hypocritical?
