Donald Trump's bare-fisted campaign CEO Steve Bannon is already threatening to punch back at Bill Clinton as a response to a flurry of new allegations by women who say Trump assaulted them or made unwanted advances.

In language that evokes both sexual predation and the total destruction of a man's reputation, Bannon told Bloomberg News, ''We're going to turn him into Bill Cosby.'

Trump already brought four Clinton accusers – three who have made charges against Bill Clinton – to the second presidential debate Monday.

Bannon threatened to bring forward still more information. 'Women are coming to us who have been groped or sexually abused by Bill Clinton,' he told the publication, without providing further detail.

Good luck with all that.

?????????

Cosby, Bill Clinton, Donald Trump.    All Cut from the same cloth.

Sexual predators.

Exactly.

Steve, you stupid d-bag, you should be launching multiple assaults on multiple fronts against Hillary RIGHT NOW. There is so much out there and we are just three weeks out. How much of an idiot are you?

• Bill Clinton isn't running.
• This will just bring more attention to Donnie's [alleged] misdeeds.
• This puts the lie to "I'll hire the best people".

[dfwgator]

Exactly.

At this point, my thought is if Trump is going to go down,    then at least let him take the Clintons down with him.  Maybe that's our best hope.  Leave Hillary with very little support as President as possible so she can't get any of her agenda passed.

And yes, that means we have to swallow our pride and support the GOP downticket.   We can go after them in 2018.  But right now,  we'll need them.

Note to "Race" Bannon: Bill Clinton isn't running for President again. Besides, he assaulted several women and used his intern as a humidor and it made no difference whatsoever to the public. 

If Donald Trump were as superficially charming and genuinely knowledgeable as Bill Clinton, he might get away with similar behavior, even running as a Republican. But he won't, because instead he is a loudmouthed ignoramus.

Yes but you can hit Hillary on multiple fronts. The fact that she mocked Bill's victims, the Clinton Foundation, her foreign connections, pay-to-play, her racist stuff caught on tape, all the Wikileaks stuff...the list goes on.

Throw it all up spew it and smear it everywhere, 24/7. It's what I'd be doing. That's Trumps only hope.

At least we can get some use out of Trump if he does go "scorched Earth" and takes the Clintons down with him.  Yeah, Hillary still wins,  but it will be a Pyrrhic Victory.

That's about Trump's only card right now. We might at least retain Congress if he does.

That's about the best outcome I can see at this point. I think Trump needs to focus on Hillary first and foremost and her colossal in government. Everything she touches turns to compost, this Bill stuff is old news and couldn't bring them down last time. 

[guitar4jesus]

I'm sure they could dig up some dirt on McCain if they really try.... 

[geronl]

This is why Trump is losing, he cannot focus on Hillary.

DEMS are going to support her regardless; they always have and they always will.  They have given her a free pass for decades.

Swallow our pride and support the GOP downticket?  Really?  You better hope like heck that we retain the majority in the Senate and the House. If you think that this country can withstand 4 years of Hillary Clinton you're are living in fantasy land.

I suspect the Center is beginning to realize that Trump is going down, and in turn that will help the GOP in the House and Senate.  Traditionally, Americans don't like the same Party controlling both.  And there aren't that many die-hard Democrats.

If you think voting downticket for the very people that gave Obama all his big issues and the money to enact them, covered up for countless issues with show pony investigations that went nowhere, funded isis and let Democrats grandstand for 8 years is going to help matters, I think you have your own address in fantasy land.

The next debate is going to focus on immigration and fitness to be president.  They are keeping Trump plenty busy with all of the accusations; he needs to deny it and stay silent for a couple days and prepare for this debate.  He can actually win it if he doesn't waver on immigration and refugees and certainly he can keep bombarding her with her failed policies and disastrous decisions as Secretary of State.   He needs to keep his cool, move past the accusations and set his sights on destroying her reputation during the next debate...that is if he truly is in this to win.

Not to mention keeping the real crimes committed by Hillary at the State Dept out of the news.

There are still some conservatives running down ballot; but in essence Norm you are correct.  No, not living in my own fantasy land, but my head is spinning from all the crap that continues to come our way and I do know that if we don't hold the majority in both Houses this country has absolutely zero chance of survival. It makes me absolutely want to cry. I worry about my grown kids and grandchildren.  Without any doubt both parties have failed the American people miserably a long, long time ago!  I also think at times, crash and burn may be the better alternative.  A lot to digest as the pendulum comes crashing down. I saw the writing on the wall during "W"'s administration and things have gone from bad to much worse.  Honestly, I'm looking for any beacon of hope for this country right now.

Bill Cosby?

See! Clinton was the first Black President!

It wasn't Republicans who put Obamacare into law, or the stimulus. Heck, even the bailouts were written by a majority-Democrat Congress.

Voting downticket is crucial for buying time. The GOP may not stop what's there (sadly, there aren't enough people in America willing to do that), but they have shown they won't add to the crisis we have.
