Heading into tonights debates the theme for the evening has already been set by the media, along with everyone else who has been hoping that a giant sinkhole would open up and swallow Donald Trump like some sort of low rent Mothra in a budget Godzilla film. This narrative rests on the assumption that the video of Trumps now infamous Bus Ride with Billy was the straw that broke the camels back and everyone is fleeing the sinking ship. Over at The Hill theyre keeping a running WHIP list of politicians who are pulling their support for the nominee. Less mentioned is the fact that these are mostly people who opposed Trump from the beginning and only came onboard when he began exceeding expectations in the polls.
So are these The End Days which everyone has been predicting? I wouldnt be quite so hasty in nailing the coffin shut. Once the initial shock and awe has worn off you may find that those seeking to undermine Trumps campaign have badly misplayed what could have been a winning hand. If the cable news authorities were going to quote any classic rock lyrics to script this moment it would be Jim Morrison singing about how This Is The End. But while the video was certainly a damaging broadside to the Trump campaign, the way this was handled was very possibly bungled. What could have really been the end of the line for The Donald may have been fumbled to the point where he has a path to recovery. There are three factors which may support this idea that Id like to cover.

Brutus was one among a number of Senators who stabbed JGC.
I saw the Howard Stern movie, and you know what? Locker room humor, naked women, profanity, and rudeness. I had the vapors I tell you. To think that Trump would go on the Trump show, and, and, and, joke around. It's just floors me! (Do I need to add "it?")
And I still laugh at the skit about words you can't say on the radio.
The audio of LBJ ordering pants is a hoot.
Well it takes several days for people to dig through and analyze such an enormous trove of emails to find the gems.
So, the release was premature.
Then shout to the world ‘ No more Clinton Bush corruption in DC ‘
Wrap Hillary in with the Bush crime cartel .
It will sink her .
Trump needs also to clearly state he will kick the Clinton Bush crime families and there fat cats pals out of DC .
And then attack Congressmen crooks like Ryan Pelosi Reid and McCain as out of touch lobbyist puppets.
Promise to stop them and there lobbyist corporate giveaways .
The author doesn’t get it. The left didn’t blow their timing out of stupidity, they had to run with it because of WikiLeaks.
I tweeted Trump that when Hillary solemnly states some policy he should ask, Is that your public or private view?”

Infowars is stating that Hillary has had many "Jane Does" file false rape reports against Trump. They will be found to be false only after the election.
He needs to make a sincere apology. Everybody has minor moral lapses, and in regard to them, it is not difficult to reform if one understands what he did was wrong, how it was wrong, and promises to never repeat it. Then, ask for forgiveness. Finally, since forgiveness has to be earned, this is a perfect opportunity to show women how he will help to make their lives better. Give details.
Then go after billary.

“This story does not have the legs to carry its weight for four weeks.”
Agreed. They either thought that THIS would finish Trump...or they have something even worse (trumped up) and waiting in the wings.
I’m thinking they showed their hand too soon. Is there ANYTHING about The Beast’s campaign that HASN’T been manufactured in some way?
Historically, the premise has been that Republicans win when the election is on issues. Democrats win when the contest is in the gutter. There has been no gutter player better than Billary Clinton.
So in a year of CHANGE and REVOLUTION, can this Republican again prove the conventional wisdom wrong and win in the gutter?
The truth is, nobody knows. It’s never been done before. But this is Trump.
Go back and read Suetonius’s “The Twelve Caesars”(or Shakespeare’s “Julius Caesar!)there were more then just Brutus wielding the knife. But I get your point!
He was a democrat at the time. They should forgive him. Now that he’s matured, he’s a Republican.
Unlike Hellary, his words didn’t kill anyone.
From Hellary’s FBI files, if that’s all she can find on him, he’s a saint.
I would agree with you....they really don’t know the public in 2016. They assume everyone is living in the 1980s era and this would shock them. Face it....on HBO, Showtime, and a even the 3-letter networks....you get a dose of the word “Pu$$y” at least six times a week. Virtually every single boy by age 8 knows the word and what it refers to.
I hate to even suggest this, but 90-percent of black guys might admire him for saying that comment, and it might convince them to vote for the guy.
As for the comeback? I would ask what the Hillary platform angle is for “Pu$$y”....is she for it or against it?
Of course they would lead with that because it is the most important issue facing our nation.
Followed by non-gender specific restrooms and global warming.
Not our massive debt! Not high unemployment! Not the illegal invaders! Not failed obama’s unhealthy health care!
I was thinking much the same as this article. The standard policy was to release stuff like this the Thursday before the election. Releasing now, when 95% of the country will get to see him in 2 more debates before they vote, gives him a heck of a lot of time to turn it around.
Given early/mail voting these days, probably releasing this 10 days before the election would have been much more effective.
Or possibly that Trump found out about their October surprise and had it released early to give him time to respond.
“Less mentioned is the fact that these are mostly people who opposed Trump from the beginning and only came onboard when he began exceeding expectations in the polls.”
Not a single Trump yard sign has come down (and I take note of where the Trump signs are), and in fact, some have blossomed from last Sunday morning's drive.
The GOPe politicians may be jumping off the Trump ship (thinking it will help them politically later on) but the rank and file are sticking with Trump.
After this election, the Republican Party as we know it will no longer exist. They have committed suicide.
