Related: About this forum‘He’s a dirty old man’: CNN panel reacts with disgust to Trump’s ‘hot mic’ comments about women
The news broke Friday that Donald Trump was caught on a hot mic in 2005 talking about women in the most vulgar of terms. Pundit and columnist Bill Kristol might be a conservative Republican but he was quite simply disgusted by the comments.
On Jake Tappers afternoon show the host was shocked, to say the least.
USA Today columnist Kirsten Powers couldnt believe that someone who could become the president of the United States after saying something like this.
Its this very adolescent way to talk about women, Powers said. A very vulgar way. For somebody who was just recently attacking Alicia Machado being on a sex tape that she wasnt. And then, of course, he has a lot of evangelical voters and women voters, a lot of them alarmed by this, I dont think it helps. - RawStory
50 state strategy for HRC. Donald is toast!

This isn't a 50 State Strategy... It's 50 States, Washington D.C. and all U.S. Territories.

Forget about his base. His base can't elect him. He needs to bring in undecided moderates to win

He's just like them. Identity voting.

This will not impress those voters

(46,757 posts)6. I'm okay if that's all it takes.
I can tell you that his base is getting angrier and more frustrated. Some of the things that I have seen posted on Facebook is just horrible. They will back him up no matter what.

It is beyond disgusting on so many levels.
I'm going to love to see the evangelicals try and spin this around to validate voting for him.
