Speaking in Greensboro, North Carolina, at the same time as yet another woman came forward with allegations that he had sexually assaulted her, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump dismissed the allegations of Jessica Leeds, who alleged that Trump assaulted her in the first-class cabin of an airplane in 1979.
“The only way they figure they can slow it down is to come up with people that are willing to say, ‘Oh, I was with Donald Trump in 1980! I was sitting with him on an airplane! And he went after me on the plane!’” Trump said dismissively.
“Yeah, I’m gonna go after you. Believe me - she would not be my first choice, that I can tell you. Man. You don’t know - that would not be my first choice.”
The audience cheered.

Now one has to wonder whether there is something in these allegations. Remember a journalist on MSNBC yesterday saying every journalist following the Trump campaign is aware of these allegations going back months now. It was a matter of who was going to take the first leap.
Drip, drip...
Pence not helping much here
You missed the Bill Clinton years
I'm 32, so I was only 16 when Bush Jr won, so to be fair to my teenage self I wasn't too closely following the Clinton impeachment.
Has Fox thrown the towel in? I was just watching it and they were saying that if not for Trumps sexual assault allegations the Wikileaks would be damning. Yesterday they were all for denying the accusations had any weight behind them.
You don't even have to go as far back as Clinton, The pedophilia scandal in the UK recently followed a similar path. Crosby too.
I don't remember it being this bad. Then again I'm over in England so might of missed some of it.You missed the Bill Clinton years
They're probably pissed off about the rumours that Trump and Ailles are going to start a rival news organization that caters to the loons.
Goodness, you're a youngin'!
Apologies, Frosty, your posts are so knowledgeable and mature on most subjects I assumed you were at least my age.
It was worse, really, but the nature of communication these days skews our perception .
Using Bubba for the context.
It's actually quite funny(and super depressing) that more often than not, the things that bring down politicians are not their venality or terrible positions, but personal baggages - mostly sex.
The moral of the story seems to be as long as you keep your dick in your pants, or at least hide it well enough, you are golden.

I'm gonna stick my neck out here, and say that a white male nerd, still vocally undecided a year into Trump's candidacy, was never likely to prove the nicest guy in the world.
Please who is watching CNN now?
Since you ask so forcefully, I feel compelled to tune in... but what am I looking for?
There's a former Apprentice contestant with allegations against Trump.
Gone. Former. apprentice contestant had a news conference. CNN reported it as live. Maybe it wasn't.
Carson is the master of the pivot.
So now I'm left watching Ben Carson.... thanks guys.
Donald Trump Said in 2012 Gloria Allred Would Be 'Very, Very Impressed' With His Penis

In fairness, he apparently didn't use the word penis.

And a commercial for the debate that sounds like a UFC promo....???
Thank god I haven't been watching TV.

Definitely. I said this a while ago, but Fox have subtly withdrawn their support. They're backing the GOP now, not Trump.
That's been my biggest gripe with this election. They've dumbed it all the way down.
"You said you were the party of family values... What? You weren't appalled earlier?"

If I had to, I honestly think that I'd wager money on Biden becoming president before Trump. It's done.
It was the only way Trump could understand it. You can't run a highbrow campaign with a lowbrow candidate.
Fox now looking to 2020.
They are saying that Republicans abandoning Trump echos them abandoning Barry Goldwater which led to Richard Nixon getting elected 4 years later.

Charming.
The "let's focus on the 'real issues'" line from the Trump campaign doesn't work so well after Trump held that press conference with Bill Clinton's accusers. He's personally given a green light for his accusers to dominate the media cycle.
Seems there are loads of women coming out against him and "It's all a lie" gets lamer by the minute.
He just can't resist the bait.
