President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Does the Post story say when the woman came forward with the story? If it was just Wednesday, I'd suggest it might be something the GOP has had in its back pocket and pulled it out after Tuesday's result. Don't know why they didn't give it to Strange though. Doesn't seem like something the Dems would hold onto, and if they were holding onto it - you drop it on the Sunday after Thanksgiving. Not more than a month before the election.

The Brazile thing could have pretty wide ramifications for the Dems. A big part of the Clintons base within the party is/was black and minority voters. Brazile's influence within the party is a reflection of that. I don't know how much influence any of them - the Clintons or Brazile - will have within the party going forward.

 

So now we're up to:

1. Bill Cosby
2. Harvey Weinstein
3. Kevin Spacey
4. Roy Moore (potentially)

Anybody I've forgotten?

 

There were multiple women, and the Post goes into pretty precise detail about exactly how the story came to its attention and was reported.

 

Ben Affleck
George H.W. Bush

 

We're in for quite the mess if Moore wins.

 

Ok Roy. So the story is the result of the Post's libruhl bias, is it? Notice how Moore blasts the Post but doesn't say he'll sue.
If the story is patently false and is the result of partisan/political bias, you'd have a great case for malice.
So what's up, Roy?

 

We already know the President sexually harassed underage girls. Why should Moore be held to a higher standard?

 

No. He's just the front man for his party's agenda in the Senate. He's on the firing line when things fail. So he'd have no business expressing concern that a lock GOP seat might be imperiled by a candidate with excessive baggage.
Are you really willing to go to bat for Moore?

 

Will Christopher Plummer replace him on the ballot?

 

YASFD ...

 

In The Party of Personal Responsibility, standards are inversely proportional to the magnitude of the office (or the need to cut taxes and appoint a Supreme Court Justice).

 

Am I wrong in interpreting your previous post as a rebuke of McConnell?
