Donald Trump's mission
h/t Instapundit
Donald Trump issued an unmistakable threat to Hillary Clinton Sunday night: I am willing to cross any line to make the next 30 days of your life hell.

Capping the most devastating 48 hours of his presidential campaign, Trump stunned the country on Sunday by convening a press conference with women who have accused Bill Clinton of sexual misconduct and calling the former president an abuser of women in a nationally televised debate.

The Republican presidential nominee's decision to bring women from Bill Clinton's past into the debate -- both physically into the debate hall and into his verbal attacks against Hillary Clinton -- signaled a remarkably defiant strategy anchored in some of the most electric allegations that have been leveled against the Clintons in their decades in public life. It also guarantees that in the final, ugly month of the 2016 election, the country's first female presidential nominee will be repeatedly subjected to the indignity of confronting the most painful moments of her marriage in public.

#3  The lesson the Donks have learned from decades of experience is that the Trunks apologize and retreat with tails behind them.

I recall the movie Gettysburg when Lee is informed that Meade is now the commander of the Army of the Potomac saying something like - He's a Pennsylvania man, he'll be cautious.

Well Trump is a NYC guy, and you just made it personal. Enjoy!

check out Hillary's potty mouth
h/t Instapundit. Some selections

- "Fuck off! It’s enough I have to see you shit-kickers every day! I’m not going to talk to you, too! Just do your Goddamn job and keep your mouth shut." Hillary to her State Trooper bodyguards after one of them greeted her with "Good Morning." From the book "America Evita" by Christopher Anderson, p.90

- "Where’s the miserable cock sucker?" (otherwise known as "Bill Clinton") Hillary shouting at a Secret Service officer. From the book "The Truth about Hillary" by Edward Klein, p. 5

#1  -  “Just get that [F-ing dog] out of my way,” said to Secret Service K-9 handler. That's what pi$$ed me off--abusing dogs. The little ol grandma has two faces--one for the public and debates, the other for people who piss her off. I wonder how many ended up dead who stood in her way or crossed this lil ol grandma?

#2  “Eleanor Mondale and Monica Lewinsky could not satiate the president’s horndog sexual desires. There were many others. I saw plenty of awkward run-ins and drama with other officers and staff. President Clinton had difficulty managing where he saw his many mistresses, whether it was at the White House or on the road. It baffled the Uniformed Division as to how he could manage all these women without any of them realizing there were so many others. We wondered how he got any work done and joked that he would have been better at running a brothel in a red-light district than the White House.”

― Gary J. Byrne, Crisis of Character: A White House Secret Service Officer Discloses His Firsthand Experience with Hillary, Bill, and How They Operate

#3  When reading Byrne's well-written account of his stint in the WH. It occurred to me that WJC needed a "take a number" system for his WH ladies comings and goings.

#4  Byrne's fear and that of others in the uniformed division was the HRC would walk in on a ...desk-top event. I suspect Bill's 'playtime' was well coordinated.

"Multikultistan: A house of horrors for ordinary Germans,"
[Breitbart] Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta received a bleak intelligence memo on Muslim migration in Europe, according to Wikileaks Podesta email dump.

The email address orca100@upcmail.nl sent a message to Podesta's email account at Georgetown Law School on February 21, 2016. The Clinton campaign has staunchly advocated for increasing Muslim refugee settlement in the United States.

"Multikultistan: A house of horrors for ordinary Germans," was the headline on the apparent intelligence packet that was sent to Podesta. The email was released as part of Wikileaks' Podesta email dump, which Wikileaks claims is only one percent complete at this time and will continue throughout the election.

#2  WikiLeaks shows that Hillary said, in a talk to hedge fund operators and WS investment firms behind closed doors, that she was out of touch. She dug her heels in and resisted the release of these Wall Street talk transcripts. So thx wiki.

Billy Bush Suspended From ‘Today’ After Lewd Trump Tape Scandal
[THEDAILYBEAST] The days of Billy Bush’s life are rapidly going from bad to worse. Bush, the first cousin of President George W. Bush and former Florida governor Jeb Bush, has been indefinitely suspended from the third hour of the Today show, NBC’s venerable morning franchise that he officially joined as a co-anchor a mere two months ago--disciplinary action for his role in a crude and sexist conversation he had with Donald Trump 11 years ago when he was hosting Access Hollywood.

Bush’s suspension was announced Sunday night by Noah Oppenheim, senior vice president in charge of Today, in a "Dear TODAY family" memo to the staff.

"I know we’ve all been deeply troubled
...meaning it might require more than two 'tuts'. If the other side responds at all it's known as a 'tut for tat' and it's worth 20 diplomatic points..
by the revelations of the past 48 hours," Oppenheim wrote. "Let me be clear--there is simply no excuse for Billy’s language and behavior on that tape. NBC has decided to suspend Billy, pending further review of this matter.

#1  I've got to say, the Bush family has not showed its better side during this election.
Posted by: JohnQC || 10/10/2016 8:13 Comments || Top||

#2  Political Theater. HRC acolytes can now beat the drum "Look what happened to poor Billy, and DJT walks."

Suspended <> fired.

#3  Please - he'll get a huge raise for this, once the attention dries up.

#4  Certainly he'll be invited to all the best Liberal parties, at least until the election.

Paula Jones, Kathy Shelton, Juanita Broaddrick and Kathleen Willey just NUKED Bill Clinton at Trump presser

#1  Smart strategy. Trump began the debate a bit early.... without the disgusting Cooper and Raddatz tag team.

Post debate - Megyn kelly and Dana Pareno both appeared to be very saddened by the yellow, foul smelling foreign liquid in their cheerios.

#2  Trump kicked their asses - nice to see..
Posted by: Raj || 10/10/2016 0:14 Comments || Top||

#3  Yes Raj, my take as well. Using the debate as a platform for demanding a public Clinton apology to Jones, Willey, Broaddrick and Shelton might have been a bridge too far, but Trump came pretty close. Bill Clinton was very unhappy, which gave me great pleasure.
Posted by: Besoeker || 10/10/2016 0:27 Comments || Top||

#4  If FBI, DOJ, and every other regulatory agency been doing they jobs - Hillary would be in jail & Trump wouldn't have to destroy her publically.
FBI would be doing its job if it wasn't for 8 years of Obama i.e., if McCain & Romney would be less of "gentlepersons"

#6  The last two presidential election year Novembers have not been particularly kind to us. Trepidation looms.
Posted by: Besoeker || 10/10/2016 5:28 Comments || Top||

#7  NBC today refused to mention Shelton when describing the women Trump brought to debate. They are also pushing it as dragging Bill Clinton into the debate (of course ignoring HRC's treatment of such women) instead of sticking to issues. While at the same time saying the Trump apology was not enough.

Wikileaks Reveals Hillary Lied About Marines Rejecting Her Because She Was a Woman
[BREITBART] No one who knows anything about the military in general and the Marines in particular ever believed that story. 26 or 27 isn't too old to enlist in any service. By 1975 they had done away with the WACs and the Women Marines (They were called BAMs -- "Broad-assed Marines" in certain circles) so they wouldn't "reject" you because you were a woman. I knew a dozen or so just casually, all of them top notch people. If she was "rejected" it would have been for her eyesight, but I suspect the real reason the recruiter told her to go away was because of her snotty attitude.

#1  I'm still waiting for a headline "Hillary told the truth when ...".
Posted by: g(r)omgoru || 10/10/2016 7:58 Comments || Top||

#2  Her first impulse is to lie, her second impulse is to double-down. Same with subsequent impulses.
Posted by: JohnQC || 10/10/2016 9:44 Comments || Top||

#3  A 26 year old flaming leftist lawyer academic just wakes up one day and wants to join the Marines.

Bullcrap. Only plausible explanation is wanting a military service feather in her cap - like the welfare bum who shows up at the job interview drunk, "Yeah I went to an interview, but wasn't hired for some reason."

#4  that must be where she got her Super Duper Elite Sniper Avoidance maneuvers....

#5  That's ok. She still got her taste of combat in Bosnia when she dodged sniper fire.

#6  her Super Duper Elite Sniper Avoidance maneuvers....

Serpentine, Hillary! Serpentine!

#7  That was shortly after Big Jawn got back from Cambodia, wasn't it? She prolly saw his service as an advantage.
Posted by: Bobby || 10/10/2016 14:02 Comments || Top||

#8  "I tried to join the Marines, but they said that as members of the Geneva Convention, it would be illegal to deploy me.

So then I went to Chuck Norris' dojo. He sensed me coming, locked the doors, and hid behind the desk."

Gennifer Flowers: Bill confided Hillary was bisexual
  • [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Flowers's 12-year affair with Bill Clinton was exposed in 1992 during his presidential campaign

  • She bitterly regrets rejecting him when he last begged to see her and says he's the 'love of her life'

  • Launching a career as a sex columnist she says Clinton taught her everything she knows

  • Bill told her Hillary was 'bisexual' and that he had 'no problem with that'

#1  As I watched the debate, I was amazed at what appeared to be a very significant weight loss. Anyone else notice that ?
Posted by: Besoeker || 10/10/2016 0:11 Comments || Top||

#2  Whose weight loss?
Posted by: Raj || 10/10/2016 0:16 Comments || Top||

#3  Clinton's. She appeared much thinner.... or do I need a new prescription ?
Posted by: Besoeker || 10/10/2016 0:20 Comments || Top||

#4  I think you're right on that - maybe she's cut back on the booze?
Posted by: Raj || 10/10/2016 0:24 Comments || Top||

#5  It was more than a better pant suit, though she was also wearing a better pant suit. She did look significantly slimmer in both belly and hips -- several sizes smaller. It could be a custom made girdle, I suppose, following a high colonic
and a low residue diet for a few days.

#6  As you know, rapid weight loss can indicate other issues.

#7  As you know, rapid weight loss can indicate other issues.

She didn't have any blood for several days?

#8  LOL. No bllod for several days as with a vampire?

Hillary's bisexual? Not a great surprise. This has been around for quite awhile. Seems WJC has added some fire to the smoke with his private comments. IMO that if Hillary wins, there will be a divorce of WJC. Finally got what she wants and can get rid of the guy who has been causing her problems for years. Later, a marriage in the WH with Huma and rainbow lights and flags.

(That which is read cannot be unread!)
Posted by: Fred || 10/10/2016 11:51 Comments || Top||

#13  I suspect she didn't wear her kevlar vest or something. She's no longer worried about unhinged Bernie supporters I guess.

#14  Considering his preferences, I'd guess whatever hetero HiRC had in her was spoilt by Billy.
