"I do have to tell you about O.J. and 'The Apprentice,'" Trump said in July 2008 on the Howard Stern Show. "NBC went totally crazy when I wanted to put O.J. on The Apprentice."

Trump added that while he was friendly and played golf with O.J. before the murder trial, he abandoned him when he "realized he killed his wife."

"Why would you put him on the Apprentice?" Stern asked

"Well you know, in your business, there's a thing called ratings. And, you know you can come up with a cure for cancer — I found out a lot about your business — because, hey, I'm the biggest star. I'm now the biggest star," Trump said. "So I know that if you come up with a cure for cancer, and if you put it on, and if it doesn't get ratings, they will not broadcast it."

"So, you come with a cure for a disease, no good. Now, I know this if I put O.J. on huge ratings. Oh, forget it, 35 million people," Trump said.

"So did O.J. call you and..." said Stern.

"I don't want to go into it, but O.J. would have done it," said Trump. "I can't go into the details."

Trump refused to answer if he spoke to Simpson about the show when asked directly.

Trump said, "I hadn't spoken to him in years, I don't like people that kill their wives. Does that make sense? Does that make me a disloyal person?"

RUSH LIMBAUGH: You know what the magic word, the only thing that matters in American sexual mores today is? One thing. You can do anything, the left will promote and understand and tolerate anything, as long as there is one element. Do you know what it is? Consent. If there is consent on both or all three or all four, however many are involved in the sex act, it's perfectly fine. Whatever it is. But if the left ever senses and smells that there's no consent in part of the equation then here come the rape police.

This may be the most shocking and deplorable yet transparent thing I've ever seen Rush Limbaugh ever say. Jesus fucking Christ.

Consent is less of an issue than the amount of people involved. Or the genitalia. Get the fuck out of her. Fuck.

He's basically saying rape is less repugnant when it's male-female than consensual group sex or gay sex. Because "God," I guess. Fuck him.

Yes your generosity is great but most dudes know the right and wrong things to say about consent and this guy just blows right through the socially acceptable rules. I think he has done some Trump-like actions.

You're letting women know exactly what you're going to do and when you're going to do it, she's not going to be there anymore. She's gone. Why can't you just have a sneak attack? Why do you have to tell her everything? General Patton and General Douglas MacArthur are spinning in their graves right now.

I just don't think libruls understand how fucking frustrating it is as a political party to run a smear campaign for 30 years against a family and the public still not buy it.

It appears it was Bush's alleged bragging that prompted staff at his former show, Access Hollywood, to track down the 11-year-old tape, which was sitting dusty shelf at the show's offices.

According to Page Six, Bush told numerous people at a party while in Brazil that he had 'a tape of Trump being a real dog.' 

Stay losing, Bush family.

This is the type of shit where people reading about this election 100 years from now are totally going to think it was conspiracy. 

"Let me get this straight.  The Republican establishment hated Trump and it just happened to be former president George H.W. Bush's nephew/former president George W. Bush's cousin to be the one to kill Trump's bid just 8 months after Jeb! Bush's failed campaign?  Which ultimately handed the White House to another Clinton?!  The same Clintons that attended Trump's wedding?!?!?"

I am still legit triggered by that Rush Limbaugh thing. To me I don't care how kinky or disgusting a sex act is so long as it's consensual. If everyone is cool with it, do what you like. But the most vanilla thing even like holding hands or a cheek kiss is disgusting to me if there's not consent. It boggles my mind that people don't view it that way. I mean how could you possibly think otherwise?

"Consent" is obviously a fake construct of wandering jews undermining our values for their personal gain, and not the backbone of a liberal nation and economy as you thought, sheeple !
Personal freedom is to buy guns and deny gays service, not to distract yourself from your inevitable death by engaging in pleasurable activities.

First Lady Michelle Obama weighed in on the leaked tape of Donald Trump's predatory comments about women at length in a powerful speech Thursday, calling his comments "disturbing" and "shocking."

Campaigning for Hillary Clinton in Manchester, New Hampshire, Obama expressed disbelief that a presidential candidate made such remarks.

"The fact is that in this election, we have a candidate for president of the United States who, over the course of his lifetime and the course of this campaign has said things about women that are so shocking. So demeaning," she said. "I simply will not repeat anything here today. And last week we saw this candidate actually bragging about sexually assaulting women. And I can't believe that I'm saying that."

Obama said she felt compelled to speak out against Trump's comments because of how disturbing they are.

"It would be dishonest and disingenuous for me to move on to the next thing like this was just a bad dream," she said. "This is not something we can ignore. It's not something we can sweep under the rug as just another disturbing footnote in a sad election season. Because this was not just a lewd conversation. This wasn't locker room banter. This was a powerful individual speaking freely and openly about sexually predator behavior."

Obama focused much of her speech squarely on Trump, though she never spoke his name. She expressed her disgust for Trump’s comments not only as a woman, but as a mother to two girls.

"I feel it so personally. And I'm sure that many of you do too. Particularly the women,” she said. "The shameful comments about our bodies. The disrespect of our ambitions and intellect. The belief that you can do anything you want to a woman. It is cruel. It is frightening. And the truth is, it hurts. It hurts. It's like that sick sinking feeling you get when you're walking down the street minding your own business. Some guy yells out vulgar words about your body. Or when you see that guy at work that stands just a little too close, stares just a little too long, you feel uncomfortable in your own skin."

Obama said that the need to push back against Trump’s comments should transcend political party.

"This is disgraceful. It is intolerable,” she said. “Doesn't matter what party you belong to. No woman deserves to be treated this way. No one deserves this kind of abuse. I know it's a campaign, but this isn't about politics. It's about basic human decency. It's about right and wrong. We cannot endure this or expose our children to this for any longer. Not for another minute, let alone four years."

She went on to emphasize that the characterization of Trump's comments as “locker room” talk that’s normal for all men is disrespectful to men and boys.

"How is this affecting men and boys in this country? Because I can tell you that the men in my life do not talk about women like this,” Obama said. "I know my family is not unusual. To dismiss this every day locker room talk is an insult to decent men everywhere. The men that you and I know don't treat women this way. They are loving fathers sickened by the thought of their daughters being exposed to this kind of language about women. They are us fathers and brothers and sons who don't tolerate women being treated and demeaned. Like us, the men are worried about the impact this election is looking for boys, role models for what it means to be a man."

Obama channelled her comments into a push for votes for Hillary Clinton, saying she represents everything that Trump is not.

"We need someone who will heal the wounds that divide us,” she said. "Someone who truly cares about us and our children. Someone with strength and compassion to lead this country forward. I'm here today because I believe with all of my heart that Hillary Clinton will be that president."

Let's be fair to Rush Limbaugh, that may have just been the pills talking.

Apparently NBC was going to edit Bush out of the tape in the story they were doing, but they got beat to the punch. 

They weren't beaten to the punch, they were the only ones with that material, they had a solid hold on the story, the timing of it, everything. For all we know, NBC says they were waiting until after the 2nd debate to release the story (perhaps to not weigh too heavily on the event), but even that is taking too much of a meddling stance on things.

The raw footage was leaked to the Washington Post, as in some dude there got an anonymous package in the mail. Perhaps the person who leaked it thought NBC was going to kill the story outright, and perhaps they would have, for whatever reasons. When people get bothered by 'the media', this shit is exactly why.

So my facebook page is full of mormons pulling for Evan McMullin or something. Saying that if they can stop either Trump or Killary from getting 270 it'll be a run off. You'd figure they'd have learned about disappointment by now.

Apparently Giuliani said today Clinton wants a single world government, and Trump said in his speech that she's conspiring with international bankers to undermine American sovereignty.

So we've officially moved to the ZOG portion of the campaign.  Cool.

If there's no EC majority, the House votes on it, picking from the top three finishers.

I guess the dream is McMullin carries Utah, neither major party candidate hits 270, the GOP keeps their House majority, and that majority gets behind McMullin and votes him in (even though almost nobody's endorsed him, and their own constituents would flip shit).

It's certainly the belief of his lawyer.

Michael Cohen, special counsel at The Trump Organization, defended his boss, saying, "You're talking about the front-runner for the GOP, presidential candidate, as well as private individual who never raped anybody. And, of course, understand that by the very definition, you can't rape your spouse."

[Phoenix Dark]

I'm just glad there is pushback on the attempt to normalize Trump's comments on sexual assault. If he had simply said I want to fuck that chick...I'd laugh and that would be that. THAT is "locker room talk." But this dude literally said he wants to grab her pussy and it's ok because women let him do whatever he wants.
