Son of an Unmanly Gold-Digging Trophy HusbandAnderson Cooper began the second debate by giving Trump the opportunity to explain exactly what the fuck is wrong with him. “I’d like to start tonight’s proceedings by asking you, Mr. Trump, to explicitly lay out to the American people what the hell is fucking wrong with you?” Adding, “it would be helpful if you could expound on the specifics of why in God’s fucking name you says what you say and behave the way you do and how you can even begin to think that it’s ok. “You are not a mentally well person, and there is clearly something very, very wrong with you on the most basic and fundamental level, so please, if you would, shed some light on what in holy hell is going on inside your fucking skull. I mean, for fuck’s sake.”On-Air Airheads Blowing Bombastic BubblesAnd they haven't even measured the amount of damage that tape had. I asked my brother who was voting Trump if he still was and he said not anymore. How many people did that this weekend? They have no idea how many. A lot.Love Trump or hate him, he won big tonight. He did a great job of learning from his running mate, Mike Pence on how to pivot from attacks. Hillary was done once she knew she couldn't get under his skin tonight, and she was completely unprepared for that tonight.
While Trump bested in her strength tonight - the town hall debate, the key point where I felt he landed a big punch was on Supreme Court Justices. While Hillary was giving her touchy feel-good horseshit; Trump said he will appoint justices who respect the Constitution.
What Trump did tonight was keep Hillary on defense, and he's left her completely at a loss how to prepare for the third debate.
Given that Mr Trump's campaign has been in free fall over the past 48 hours, actually 2 months, anything less than a total Jack-Nicholson-at-the-end-of-A-Few-Good-Men style meltdown onstage has to be deemed a marginal success on his part.
The prospect that any significant portion of the audience emerged from the evening with any change of opinion, however, is unlikely.
While she landed some staggering blows, it was by no means a rout. Instead, both candidates will likely emerge bloodied but not beaten.
Mrs Clinton still has by far the easiest path to the White House, but she'll have to work for a few more weeks to earn it.
Trump has a 16.4% chance of winning according to the latest Nate Silver estimate.
American mind slaves, soaked in media brainwashing, have a totally forced reaction to that tape. It was all about women coming on to him for being a celebrity and how amazed he was at how easy they were. He didn't assault any of those starbangers; it was all consensual. Within political and media Celebrityland, there hasn't been such pretense of purity since Jennifer Tilly put out for a producer in Seed of Chucky in order to get the part of Virgin Mary.
Andy Pansy would probably brag, too, except that in his case, it would be about some 14-year-old boytoy groupies coming on to him.
