the ONLY thing liberals care about is the Climate, and staying in power.

And equal rights for the people, and getting people out of poverty, and ensuring people can afford to feed their families, and ensuring that they can get healthy care, and a whole whack of other things.

Personally, I could care less about whether or not the democrats stay in power, if there is a viable alternative. But there isn't. Trump would be the worst president ever, Johnson doesn't even understand how government works, and Stein is a one-issue pony. Hillary has her faults, but someone needs to run the country, and she's the best option by far.

This race is the perfect example of the problem with 2-term maximum. Obama would be better than any of them, and he's just getting rolling. Crazy to decide arbitrarily that he needs to be cut off, when the options are so lacking.

Well just keep an open mind. You called Trump supporters "fringe" in the past and now you're his #1 fan. It's not too late to jump ship again.

You mean, like the guy in the Titanic how as the ship was sinking tried to be sneaky and climb aboard the lifeboat inconspicuously that was for the women and children in the hopes that his cowardly a** wouldn't be caught in order to save his life?

Sorry, I'm not a liberal.

You don't have to agree with everything we say or do. Just vote for Clinton and we'll do the rest. Imagine what she can do to establishment Republicans. Adios, amigos.

Naw, dude, I'm more concerned as to how she'll screw over the country like she did other countries. But again, the ONLY thing liberals care about is the Climate, and staying in power. More like Adios America as the musicians play on as the Titanic sinks.

But since you guys are so comfortable wanting to live under the first female criminal president and having a this criminal and a liar run the country, fine. I wouldn't expect anything else from liberals.

@strangerland,

If wants to even bring his narrative to something that should be discussed, he needs to first release his tax returns. After that we can discuss the idea of taking a drug test

why not switch your vote to Clinton?

Because I'm not a lemming. Democrats and liberals don't have a conscious, I do.

You hated Trump before and you flip flopped, the same can't happen with her?

What did I just say?

She destroys Republicans, something you like to see. She's amassed billions which shows how her business acumen is far superior to Trump's.

My father always taught me honest people don't have to cheat people and lie to people making a buck. Now we know why Hillary was hiding all this stuff.

She beat Sanders, a man you described as a Bolshevik. Her policies include some center-right principals. Heck, some posters here think she will start a wider war in Syria, something you support.

I don't support any war unless it's absolutely necessary, that's another reason why I wanted Trump. But to the rest of your rant, you are correct. But since you guys are so comfortable wanting to live under the first female criminal president and having a this criminal and a liar run the country, fine. I wouldn't expect anything else from liberals.

I know you still haven't decided to vote for Trump, so what would it take to tilt you towards Clinton?

Jumping off the Grand Canyon, head first while swallowing a bucket of liquid radioactive waste.

Yup, he's created something over a woman alright -- over at least nine so far that have come forward, in fact. And he's not just a 'loudmouth' (and I notice you threw in 'man', not just 'person'), he's a racist, a misogynist, an sexual predator and abuser, likely a druggie, a perpetual liar, a braggart, a military dodger, a tax dodger, mentally insane, and a bigot in pretty much every other way besides.

So then, not so much different from Bill Clinton, a guess two peas in a pod.

Oh, and before you deflect, remember that Bill Clinton's not running, and there are no real time machines.

No, but if you guys can go in the partisan time machine, we can as well. It's all good and it's all relevant. Enjoy.

So many people talking about the News barrage being one sided.... it must feel that way to a Trump sympathizer but think! What does the Press have on Hillary... Health, Husband, Benghazi and eMails. All of which, except for Health, are pretty old news. Now Donny boy.... he hasn't been vetted for the last 25 years like Hillary. He's new and fair game... and... its like prospecting for gold before the rush... there are large nuggets sitting around in plain sight... heck he's even manufacturing some nuggets himself. Hillary is a seasoned politician... Donald, well I wouldn't call him an uncut Diamond... that would be an insult to Diamonds but lets say Zirconium.

No, but I would rather take a loudmouth man that at least HAS created something over a woman that HAS weaved and dodged her way through her political life.

Interesting that you felt the need to add "man" and "woman" there, you could have left out "man" and said "someone" instead of "woman". We shouldn't read anything into that, should we?

But quite honestly, when I look at what Trump has created I'm really not very impressed. I think he's a terrible businessman who would make an even worse president.

AP/ Jill Colvin. Trump questions legitimacy of election ... Not even the country’s more than two centuries of peaceful transitions of political leadership were sacrosanct as Trump accused the media and the Clinton campaign of conspiring against him to undermine a free and fair election. ... In a country with a history of peaceful political transition, his challenge to the election’s legitimacy — as a way to explain a loss in November, should that happen — was a striking rupture of faith in American democracy. Trump has repeatedly claimed without offering evidence that election fraud is a serious problem ...

We're supposed to believe there's no voter fraud.

"No voter fraud" is a common meme repeated in the media and in this AP opinion piece.

But there's lots of evidence of fraud.

And "no voter fraud" is not what Hillary's campaign says among themselves! Hillary's campaign chairman Podesta, in leaked email:

http://www.breitbart.com/2016-presidential-race/2016/10/15/wikileaks-john-podesta-believed-obama-forces-committed-voter-fraud/

"High importance. I met with Jim and Mike in Denver. They are both old friends of the Clintons and have lots of experience. Mike hosted our Boulder Road Show event. They are reliving the 08 caucuses where they believe the Obama forces flooded the caucuses with ineligible voters. They want to organize lawyers for caucus protection, election protection and to raise hard $."

Rally numbers are just as irrelevant in the big picture as poll numbers are.

No question the polls are being cooked for a reason. 50 people to 20,000 is not irrelevant. I have driven around a lot of northern Indiana, southern Michigan and western Ohio this week. Hundreds of Trump/Pence signs, not one for Hillary. Makes you wonder after a while. This week’s polls’ internals...

Oh, yes, I do know about the Brexit. UKIP is mostly made up of deplorables. The main difference here is that many people arguing for the Brexit were actually intelligent, thoughtful people offering practical reasons. Farage had his army of nutters but many people who voted Brexit found him repulsive. He couldn't even win a seat in the House of Commons.

Trump's one man, fart-igniting act repels many decent people - as it should.

Comparisons with Brexit are way off the mark.

Thanks for the link, Serrano. In case any of the above don't think it's worth watching then when HRC wins be prepared to bend over and kiss your sweet ass good-bye. ... ... Then again, maybe Jill Stein was put up to this and it's only a Republican scare tactic that's reminiscent of LBJ's Girl With Daisy And Atomic Bomb Explosion 1964 (http://youtu.be/fbIfVEboAzg) campaign ad . That ad's purpose was to convince voters that Barry Goldwater, the Republican candidate, called a dangerous, war-mongering lunatic at the time (sound familiar?) would start a nuclear war while President Johnson said that we had to learn to love each other (sound familiar?). BTW, LBJ authorized Operation Rolling Thunder (the years long bombing campaign against North Vietnam) on March 2, 1965 - about 90 after his November 3, 1964 victory and about 40 days after his inauguration. ... ... It seems HRC's staffers have identified the group that they hope will put her in the WH - that is, the women of America - and so will continue the story of Dirty Old Man Trump - apparently more appealing than dangerous, war-mongering lunatic Trump - until Election Day. Let's hope Dr. Jill Stein is just another silly old woman.

Of course it would.

If you look at Clinton's quote, she described half of Trump's voters as deplorables. A quick check showed that the US electorate stands at around 220 million.

Sorry, but after what's been pouring out of Wikileaks, I have one thing to say, "save it."

I think Clinton made a very flattering statement. Only 25 million deplorables out of a population of over 300 million isn't too shabby.

Especially if it's coming from her or her camp.

Taking a drug test is playing into Trump's narrative. But as Trump has never released his tax returns, there is absolutely no reason to give his narrative any credence whatsoever.

If wants to even bring his narrative to something that should be discussed, he needs to first release his tax returns. After that we can discuss the idea of taking a drug test.

"That would amount to about 95 million deplorables"

No, it wouldn't. You were commenting on a post giving examples.

If you look at Clinton's quote, she described half of Trump's voters as deplorables. A quick check showed that the US electorate stands at around 220 million. Around half of these people can't be arsed voting. That leaves around 110 million. Less than half of these people are Trump voters - let's say 50 million. That leaves about 25 million deplorables.

I think Clinton made a very flattering statement. Only 25 million deplorables out of a population of over 300 million isn't too shabby.

A fine country which I had the pleasure of living in.

I'll just ride Trump. If he wanted to be elected, he should have run a better campaign.

Of course all of the focus had to be on him, makes perfect sense, I mean, with Hillary's negatives and lack of policy discussions and a high unfavorable poll, attacking Trump is just the diversion she needs.

He ran an utterly shitty campaign, the worst ever seen, then blamed everyone else for its failure. It's always someone else's fault.

Yes, he did and from the Wikileaks, the Hillary camp lied and is cheating their way to get into the WH. dirty, dirty, dirty....

Hillary Clinton crapped on him in 2 debates.

Actually, one, but please continue...

That's his fault for not preparing adequately and for being a useless and incoherent speaker. But his whole campaign has been this way, and he still lacks anything that looks like a serious or workable policy. So now here we are

And what happened at the second debate? The Dems though it would be good to show a tape that was recorded back in 2005 and kept it and then it just so happened to become the big news right before the campaign. Again, you can believe any kind of Peter Pan fairytale you like, everyone knows what's going on and finally, the Wikileaks confirm how dirty these Dems are.

As if it needs proving that ANYONE who supports Trump is an outright lunatic, now you have morons being interviewed literally saying that either Trump wins or they will take over the White House with violence, some saying they may even try to get the states to break from the union. If Trump wins, it's fair, is their logic.

A lot of people prefer a lunatic over a habitual liar. A lunatic you give meds and counseling to heal them, sadly there is NO cure for a chronic liar-she's beyond redemption.

If anyone else does, it's "rigged" and Hillary "needs to be thrown in jail or shot". Exact words from people claiming voting is rigged, who said they will go to polling stations and bully people they think "don't speak American", and all this coming from a party where even Pence has used police in Kentucky to stop certain minorities from voting (which is proven).

Thrown in prison would be more appropriate term I would use.

'“I don’t think you’re going to see all of this group here arm themselves and mobilize, but, you know, we’re probably not too many years away from that if things keep going the way we’re going.”'

“If she’s in office, I hope we can start a coup. She should be in prison or shot. That’s how I feel about it,”

“If people are offended by the sexual stuff, what do they think is going to happen when Muslims come here, implement Sharia law, and start raping our women?”

“We can’t have that lying bitch in the White House.... If Hillary wins, it’s rigged.”

That could all be true, wouldn't put it past a lot of people.

“All I know is our country is not going to be a country anymore,” she added. “I’ve heard people talk about a revolution. I’ve heard people talk about separation of states. I don’t even like to think about it. But I don’t think this movement is going away. We don’t have a voice anymore, and Donald Trump is giving us a voice.”

Pretty much at least he started the ball rolling about dismantling the corrupt Washington elite mafia.

These are Trump's fans, and I know a number of posters on here have bought into the same violent rhetoric hook, line, and sinker. Some of these nutbags may even go on to commit violence; they will go to jail or die for Trump, who won't even do anything except maybe shrug if he hears about and collect more money.

That would amount to about 95 million deplorables

Thanks for the honest answer Jizmo.

Well you could be right about Trump, you could be just as wrong. The "canidate" Trump is a lot different, from what I've seen, than the businessman Trump.

No, I'm not a "denier". I've seen the brown skies over LA 25 years ago, hard to conclude that that crap is not going to have some terrible effects sooner or later. I've never really looked at it close enough to form an opinion yet, I need to understand the science first, slowly but surely. however, it seems to me the worst way to roll back our consumer societies causing the "alleged" climate change is to elect a corporate globalist Petrodollar tool.

"But a vote for Hillary says exactly that. Wouldn't you agree?"

A vote for Clinton is a vote for a continuation of warmongering. A vote for a bad-tempered manchild like Trump ( remember his insane reaction to the bird-flipping incident ) with a military he wants to expand, is Russian roulette.

It would be great to see a knowledgeable, balanced person running who could provide a departure. Trump is clearly not that.

Also, climate change is a real issue already affecting millions. It wasn't a lie concocted by the Chinese despite what this clown was spouting to his whoopers. Surely you're not in the denial camp on this one?

This man, (and I use that term carefully) is beneath the office of POTUS. He is making a travesty of our electoral process, along with perhaps damaging his own "brand". The world is sitting back and enjoying the "show" belittling our country which is a beacon of freedom and democracy to the rest of the world. His "below the belt" (in more ways that just one) campaign has become dark, divisive and even dangerous. The race has become about right and wrong, not the issues. Let's make history on Nov. 8th, and elect the first female POTUS. For America. GO HILLARY ! ! ! 1/20/17 - "Madame President" !

This is just beyond stupid. Would the people parroting Trump's newfound commitment to ridding political debates of the scourge of performance enhancing drugs please explain to me what PEDs are in the context of a debate? I get that steroids make athletes hit baseballs farther, etc, but a debate is just two people talking to each other. What drugs are out there which make people sound smarter when they talk? Obviously whatever they are Trump isn't taking them, but I am genuinely interested in what drugs politicians are using in debates to make them better at talking.

I still have unpleasant memory of George Bush jnr won Al Gore the election with high court decision. Election is democratic rule which favored for majority of votes. Al Gore won more primary votes however he still lose the election because of George Bush favored judges. To be honest, powerful elite make the outcome of the election. Not the ordinary people. Nixon did not believe John F Kennedy won the election. However he did not want to be seen as sore loser and moved on.

Unlike other election, that one has character assassination against Trump. Before the contest, winner has been prevailed by biased media. Trump has rights to be angry, frustrated and resentful. He is not Al Gore or Richard Nixon therefore if he does not want to accept the unfair outcome, he can request the judges for intervention. If Judges said, Trump win the election, Trump will become another George Bush Jnr. Hilary supporters have to move on.

It is also true for other way around. It does not look good however there is no alternative.

I'm going to enjoy my seventy-fourth birthdate, as well as my forty-first Thanksgiving in the USA. Unfortunately, I have been also forced to witness one of the ugliest election seasons. Although my home state is Wisconsin--a Democrat state--I've been in Texas, a Republican state, for decades. As a result, I often consider myself as an independent, supporting and voting on the bases of the candidates' talent and patriotism. As a student in comparative world history and international laws, I strongly supported President Bush in his anti-terrorism, including though not limited to the Iraq war--an unavoidable consequence of the Sept 11 Infamy. Since Bush didn't want to nuke them, other forms of anti-terrorist technics should be employed, including the military methods of preliminary interrogations of the POWs..Trump is a sick man, an evil soul. Some preventive measure should be carried out in the third and final debate, because there is the probability that the frustrated Trump will become violent. This is a special case. I still believe that the US constitutional democracy is a model for the world.

In any case, if Clinton agreed to a drug test and passed, Trump would then just refuse to have one himself, saying, "I'll address it after the election", and, "My doctor knows (sniff sniff), and I don't need to make the records public. You media and your smear campaign!"

4 ( +7 / -3 )

With just over three weeks to go, Trump knows he's going to lose big so he's already building up his collection of excuses. If it were a business deal, he would have pulled out long ago (quit while you're behind), but he can't quit now so it's just going to get more embarrassing for him, his family, and the GOP. He managed to BS his way in business and that will work with some people who are a few sandwiches short of a picnic. Luckily there are enough people who can see through all his bluster and BS. The smarter Republicans like Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell saw this coming months ago. Anyway, let Hillary continue the good things Obama's has done and then in 2024 hopefully an independent who is an inspiring, passionate, motivator may well win.

I agree, but I'd add the gun industry and gun hobby extremists. They want even more powerful weapons and the right to open carry them anywhere they go.

I'd also add the resource extractors who want greater access to public lands. But I think Trump the property developer will get first crack at the best sites. He'll want to build Trump hotels and golf courses in the places with the best views.

Don't go changing Donald.... keep the ridiculous requests coming. It will only help Hillary.

Why does anyone take this village idiot seriously?

A few reasons.

Establishment Republicans might despise the image Trump brings and his hijacking of the unwashed, but they know President Trump would rubber stamp a lot of their policies, so they simultaneously speak out against him while endorsing him. These are the "party before country" types.

There are the evangelicals who aren't voting for Trump per se but are voting to elect Republicans overall who will continue to carve out special privileges for their flock and enforce their beliefs onto others through government action. So again, its not about supporting Trump, it's about tolerating him until election day so you can line up for your rubber stamp. We'll call them the "religion before country" types.

We all know about the bigots. Not much need to explain that one. They actually like Trump and speak out for him. Same with the white supremicists who see themselves as getting a seat at the table if Trump is elected.

The conspiracy theorists support him because he legitimizes them on a level not seen before. To them, his taxes and sexual assaults are like rearranging the chairs on the Titanic. Who cares about that when the gubment is about to invade Texas? They are the paranoid.

The anti-Hillary bots turned out to be the big prize. Carefully grown by the GOP and right wing media, Trump swooped in and sold them a slicker product. Trump is focusing on this group now because they are the most rabid and give him a free pass on everything. He is trying to figure out how to monetize them after he loses the election and now is a great opportunity to test some things out.

If you take these groups together you can see how Trump could still be in the race. There not much reason for him to drop out since such a large group of people think they can get something from him and he thinks he can get something from them.

As if it needs proving that ANYONE who supports Trump is an outright lunatic, now you have morons being interviewed literally saying that either Trump wins or they will take over the White House with violence, some saying they may even try to get the states to break from the union. If Trump wins, it's fair, is their logic. If anyone else does, it's "rigged" and Hillary "needs to be thrown in jail or shot". Exact words from people claiming voting is rigged, who said they will go to polling stations and bully people they think "don't speak American", and all this coming from a party where even Pence has used police in Kentucky to stop certain minorities from voting (which is proven).

From a few fans:

'“I don’t think you’re going to see all of this group here arm themselves and mobilize, but, you know, we’re probably not too many years away from that if things keep going the way we’re going.”'

“If she’s in office, I hope we can start a coup. She should be in prison or shot. That’s how I feel about it,”

“I’ll look for . . . well, it’s called racial profiling. Mexicans. Syrians. People who can’t speak American,” he said. “I’m going to go right up behind them. I’ll do everything legally. I want to see if they are accountable. I’m not going to do anything illegal. I’m going to make them a little bit nervous.”

“If people are offended by the sexual stuff, what do they think is going to happen when Muslims come here, implement Sharia law, and start raping our women?”

“We can’t have that lying bitch in the White House.... If Hillary wins, it’s rigged.”

“All I know is our country is not going to be a country anymore,” she added. “I’ve heard people talk about a revolution. I’ve heard people talk about separation of states. I don’t even like to think about it. But I don’t think this movement is going away. We don’t have a voice anymore, and Donald Trump is giving us a voice.”

These are Trump's fans, and I know a number of posters on here have bought into the same violent rhetoric hook, line, and sinker. Some of these nutbags may even go on to commit violence; they will go to jail or die for Trump, who won't even do anything except maybe shrug if he hears about and collect more money.

What was leaked to the New York Times was sufficient to show what Trump himself had previously been unwilling to admit: that he isn't paying income tax. It didn't make him look good, it didn't make him look like a tax genius (just the opposite, in fact, because his tax lawyer of the time said that Trump had less interest in the details of what he was signing off on than his wife did: in other words, no attention span, and little knowledge of tax matters). What it did make him look like was a liar, a cheat, and far less of a successful businessman than he claims to be.

I think it was a squirrel - his own campaign released it, so that people would feel that the smoking gun had been found, when in fact it was a distraction to stop the people from finding what actually exists in his current tax returns.

The whole drug testing thing is a complete no-go. If Trump released his tax returns, then he'd at least have a standing to mention drug tests. It would still be a non-issue, as it's not something you just spring up before the election simply because you're being obliterated in the polls. But as long as he hasn't released his tax-returns, something that every candidate has done for forty years, his 'request' shouldn't even be acknowledged by the Clinton campaign.

Because if he tried to bring it up in the debates, the response is easy: "where are your tax returns?". She wouldn't even have to address the drug test issue.

Rally numbers are just as irrelevant in the big picture as poll numbers are.

No.

Oh that was over your head was it?

No, Hillary lying her....you know what was.

Trump won't and can't release his tax records because they contain information that would be fatally damaging to his campaign. He'd never even have got as far as the Republican nomination if he'd released them back then, and he wouldn't be elected now if he...well, he's not going to be elected now anyway.

I don't believe so, but Thanks to the media, for the pile on.

There never was a time when he could have simply released his returns and got on with campaigning. He'd have been gone, pre-convention, and at this stage, finding out what's in his tax records is highly damaging, as we saw when the New York Times did it on his behalf. A few idiots strutting around saying he's a business and tax genius couldn't change that.

You want to talk about Hillary's speeches or do you just want to ride Trump?

And that's what you can't understand.

The only thing I understand for all of Trump's fault that Hillary is worse than what Nixon EVER could have been.

Spot on, Strangerland. One might complain that one's favorite media outlets have failed to perform as well as the opposition's. Go ahead and complain to them. It's a matter of competence. Some are better at promoting a story - true or not - than others. It would be interesting to display the ratings of various news outlets for the past two years to see how they have fared. I'm assuming that outlets' revenue and executive compensation are still connected to ratings and how well those executives please the owners. "Cui bono"? Certainly the winning candidate benefits the most, but the media owners certainly expect to collect from the winner with at least better access and extra revenue from higher ratings. Them that gots get the money.

The media is not the government, does not run the election, and does not participate in the electoral process. Therefore they have no way of rigging the election.

It shouldn't, but it has been, so reading through the Wikileaks, people like Donna Brazile and John Harwood have been actively involved in this campaign to giving Hillary some of her questions in the first debate to the admission of Harwood admitting to going harder on Trump. I have never seen anything like this in my adult life, this makes Watergate look like a Sesame Street flick.

But apparently you were never capable of understanding why he wouldn't and couldn't do it. It was never something he could just release and get out of the way.

Excuse me? I was always saying that Trump should release his tax records,

Trump as a candidate and as a human being consists of nothing but defects. He is mentally ill.

Then you must really hate Hillary if you say it like that.

And he is fundamentally unlikeable. For this and other reasons, he is fortunately assured of losing. That doesn't make the election rigged, it makes Trump the worst nominee in American history.

Both are unlikeable, in particular, he with women and she with men.

There's a huge problem with it. The idea came from Trump. It has never been a precondition for candidates before, and it is not Trump's place to start dreaming up new rules. If it was brought in for a future election, it would perhaps be acceptable, after appropriate discussion and consideration. Insisting on it now just because one of the candidates is mad and is scrabbling around for any diversion he confide is exactly the wrong reason for giving it any thought at all.

Simple way to squash that, both take a drug test, get it over with and then move on to the real issues.

You understand what "record" means in the context of medical records, tax records, don't you? All that Trump released was a 3-paragraph summary written in suspiciously hyperbolic language that the average physician would be embarrassed to sign: "astonishingly excellent" laboratory test results.

Uh-huh...when Hillary can stand on her own "unaided" stop getting dizzy episodes and stops passing out, we can talk, until then....

The question of which candidate is healthier, or who is in good health and who isn't, is a separate issue. Trump's letter is derisory as a "medical record", but it's in keeping with the half-arsed way he does everything.

You really think so? I disagree.

@Mike

It's all good. We feel the same about Hillary supporters. LOL

If it should be a requirement that candidates have a drug test, that can start with the next election, and by general agreement, just as, for the last 40 years, and without it being required by law, candidates release their tax returns. All candidates except Donald Trump.

Sure, that was a huge mistake on his part and I was always for him getting that out of the way. That was stupid for him not to do it and it cost him.

But there's no point in allowing a candidate who is going down in flames to suddenly start inserting conditions just so that he can say the game was rigged when he loses.

Well, that the election is rigged is No big surprise to anyone, but I don't see the problem that both of shouldn't have a drug test. It would clear up a lot of confusion on both sides.

This is all part of his pattern of releasing sketchy information about himself (tax, medical records) but whipping up a ruckus about what other people aren't releasing.

Hey, if anyone has a sketchy record when it comes to medical issues, it ain't Trump, that's for sure.

Trump offered no evidence to support the bizarre claim.

But then this is a man who watched thousands of 'Muslims' dancing in glee on 9-11, who claims Obama is a Kenyan Muslim who created ISIS, that claimed he got to know Putin well and then claimed he'd never met him, among dozens and dozens of other 'bizarre claims'.

If by saying 'it's rigged' he's making the point that the rich and powerful have greater control over who runs for political office and who gets elected, he's showing he has an inkling of a mastery of the obvious. All daddy's money bought him an Ivy League education and that's the best he can do with it, approximate a mastery of the obvious? On the rich and powerful dictating the rules, as the great Scot David Byrne sang: 'Same as it ever was.'

Saying 'it's rigged' is a bit rich coming from a member of the elites, someone like him who's been manipulating political candidates and systems all his life.

Now he claims he's a victim. This is a man who's been victimizing people all his life. Read up on how he's had his team of high priced lawyers bully small small businessmen, pay attention to the women he's sexually molested and the fact that he's bragged about what he's done to his fellow ruling class acquaintances. His playing the victim card is rich. A different rich from his daddy from whom he inherited a fortune, but rich nonetheless.
