Trump apologizes for saying 'foolish things,' turns tables on Bill Clinton
CNBC ^ | 10/7/2016 | Javier David

Posted on 10/07/2016 10:10:40 PM PDT by GilGil

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, with his campaign upended by crude remarks he made about women 11 years ago, apologized on Friday for saying "foolish things," attempted to pivot away from a widening controversy that threatened to sink his chances to win the White House.

He called the controversy a "distraction from the important issues we're facing today," returning to a campaign theme he's deployed frequently: The sexual behavior of Bill Clinton, who has been unfaithful to his wife, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

In his statement, he accused the former president of predatory behavior, while saying the former Secretary of State and Democratic nominee attacked his accusers. Barely two weeks ago, Trump threatened to bring Gennifer Flowers, the former president's ex-paramour, to the first presidential debate.

That the MSM and the Clintons and EVERY single one of their "pals" are scum......goes without saying!

Trump has to fight back, find surrogates who can fight back sands emotion and those who will fight back, who were the abused and raped!

The LIVs and the stupid Millennials don't know recent history, so Trump should go as far back as Slick Willie's expulsion from Oxford and his rape and the attempted rape there.

The playbook of the Left never changes. Ever. And why should it? Idiots have been falling for it since at least 1964 (that’s as far back as my memory goes) - and are still falling for it.

No wonder Hillary and her ilk have nothing but contempt for the American voter.

Sorry. I forgot to label my post as sarcasm. I despise all of those CNN clowns and I only watch to see what they’re up to in their attempt to destroy Trump. I only watch as much as I can stomach, sort of the same feeling I get when watching FOX when Juan Williams or Dana Perino show up. They’ve made the Five unwatchable, even though Eric Bolling is usually pro-Trump.

Fox News is unwatchable. They are worse than a tabloid.

My guess is that FReepers who think this is a Sun-Tzu move by Trump may be giving him too much credit. But I guess we will see Sunday night!

Also, Trump said he “doesn’t want to get down in the gutter” with Hillary.
This could also be political jiujitsu. I seem to recall him bruiting a “major announcement” on the birther subject - and then turning the tables on the media.

So... maybe... maybe he IS that crafty.

After all, he’s smart enough not to pay taxes!!!

This guy has put together a great video about what the Hildabeast did to that little girl. I have already posted it twice on facebook to counter attack crazy Beast supporters that are trying to make an issue over Trumps ‘guy talk’.

He will come out of this on top. Hillary is very vulnerable too.

I think they had to minimize the Wikileaks sump today and it was pretty incriminating stuff with Hillary’s transcripts for the Goldman Sachs speeches.

I wouldn’t doubt the leak was by Trump to let them take the bait. If so, simply genius.

This would be a good start:

"Hillary knows all about Bills bimbos..while Hillary was loosing 13 cell phones Bill was giving his 21 phone nos to Epstein."

That would make sense, but I thought I heard Baer say the video story dropped first. He might be mistaken.

Trump has to go into the debate with a full attack against hillary not bill. bill is not running, there is more than enough information on hillary. It might make the MSM mention it.

If Hillary believes that Trump's actions make him unfit to be President, then you can damn well mention Bill Clinton's history of sexual assaults and Hillary's assistance in silencing the victims. There is your war on women.

Wow, all this soap opera tales about Trump one and two decades ago is ironic. In 2005 Trump had a cameo performance on “Days of Our Lives.” I bet the P.C. Police are popping the champagne that they have got Trump in a pickle. The problem is, he has turned the tables on the Clinton’s attack Team by criticizing Slick Willy’s abuse of women and Hillary’s role as an enabler. Now they are in a pickle!

We must understand the impact of sexual revolution, unleashed by the birth control pill. It made America’s red blooded men even hotter and those with the attraction of wealth even hotter. The term was “hot to trot.” The reality check was the emergence of Aids and other S.T.D.s. That turned the thermostat down considerably.

I wonder how many of the rich and famous are thinking about their soap opera past, hidden behind their private gates, after these revelations about Trump? Would revelations about them also put them in a pickle?

I leave with this poem:

Time is tickell
Chaunce is fickell
Man is brickell
Freilties pickell
Poudreth mickell
Seasonyng lickell

Now that is ironic! Fiction is chasing reality.

I hope the Trump people use Free Republic for research. A lot of Clinton scandals documented here.
