I guess it depends on who you hang out with.

I agree with whell on one thing. This won't matter to the people who support Trump. They already know who Trump is and they don't care. And just to make sure his fans understand what's at stake, Trump rereleased one of his greatest hits: http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2016...te-dna-n661941

No it doesn't. Hell, I was in a family restaurant with my daughter a few weeks ago and a couple of idiots walked in carrying on with a discussion laden with F bombs. Kudos to the owner for telling them to leave. But lots off folks these days seem to have little self restraint.

Do you think we could tell Trump to just leave?
The restaurateur told that group to leave because their behavior was inappropriate and unacceptable. Don't you think that we should hold a presidential candidate to the same standard?
More to the point, this is part of a pattern we've been seeing in Trump for years, from public displays of marital infidelity, multiple allegations of rape, misogynistic public tirades against multiple women, from Rosie O'Donnell to Heidi Cruz, and the public fat shaming and objectification of Alicia Machado.

Such behavior is Clinton's legacy and he's still a rock star in the Dem world. He's out campaigning for his wife yet I have yet to hear any Dems suggesting that he's a liability due to his behavior. Until that happens, I'll regard all of this as faux outrage and highly selective indignation.

Actually, I think Bill is a liability and have said so here - and not just for his past behavior. And I think you'll find that Bill isn't the "rock star" you claim him to be, especially among younger voters, the youngest of which were 3 years old when he left office.

False equivalence, my friend.

Maybe Trump can get Bill Cosby on the stump for him during these final weeks?

Because they don't care if they "offend" you and they certainly aren't going to soothe your "political correctness" by letting you tell them what they can say. "This is uh-Merika and I can say what I want, you f**kin' Libtard!"........
Gee, I wonder where they got that from?
Probably the same stupid, shortsighted party that gave us Trump.

So, that was offensive to you, but Trump's comments weren't? WTF? Don't you expect more from a presidential candidate than you do of a couple of miscreants in a family restaurant?
