Is another devastating anti-Trump oppo dump coming?

[musicblind]

We have 6 days left. Do you think at least one more anti-Trump opposition research dump is coming?

If so, when do you think it will come and what do you think it will contain?

[Agschmid]

1. Nah.

[LenaBaby61]

34. Agree Agschmid ....

NOTHING'S coming .....

Everything's baked in good and bad at this point.

[yeoman6987]

2. Nope. Too late for both sides. Now it's all get out the vote

That's all that's left that matters.

[musicblind]

11. Well, our GOTV opperation is outstanding.

I held a Halloween event at a gay club in Charlotte, NC. We had workers come in and hand out stickers. We had an official surrogate, local Transsexual activist Candis Cox, come in and give a speech to the crowd. I feel like our GOTV is dwarfing Trumps at the moment.

[yeoman6987]

22. Nice! That is great!!!! We want NC!!!!

[NastyWomen]

3. I hope

They saved the best for last. It would ease my nerves a lot, but I don't get the logic in waiting any longer. If they have it, use it now!

[musicblind]

12. I think the only justification for waiting a bit longer is the World Series.

That ends tonight.

If something doesn't come out either Thursday or Friday... then there is nothing left to come out.

Maybe our outstanding GOTV effort will be the real November surprise.

[louis-t]

36. Can you imagine? Dems release some devastating info just as

"THE CUBS WIN THE SERIES!!1!!!"

[Coyotl]

4. Every few days there has been one, so odds favor several more, or several in a day.

[onecaliberal]

5. People are already voting.

[sarae]

6. I'm starting to lose hope that anything else will come out...

but maybe they're waiting until the last minute.

As someone else said, a lot of people have already voted. If a never-Trumper reading this is sitting on something explosive – release it now, PLEASE!

[musicblind]

13. Well, they waited until the Friday before the election to drop the George Bush DUI story.

Maybe we'll get lucky and they'll drop something this Friday?

I'm not counting on it. I think we've got this regardless... but it would still be nice.

[SouthernProgressive]

8. Sides are set.

I have no clue what could come out that would deter the remainder of the deplorables from voting Trump. I also can't imagine anything that would come out that would stop the media from trashing Clinton.

Lets play off of an old trump line, with a bit of expansion.

If Trump were to shoot a black man in the streets of NY, not only would he not lose any votes, the media would savage the deceased and Trump would be put up for sainthood.

Trump has his supporters. They are set at this point. I don't see how anything could hurt him. This is the true face of the republican party.

[musicblind]

14. Changing the media narrative would be great, even if it doesn't change many minds.

Though you're probably right... they so desperately want their horse race.

[musicblind]

9. I wish there would be.

Even though I feel fairly confident that we are going to win the presidency... I wish there was one last story that could sink Trump for good... not just from winning this election, but from ever showing his face in public again.

[TrekLuver]

10. I don't even care about trying to effect Trashy Trump's support I would just like the narrative

to change.

[musicblind]

16. I don't think anything can change his hardcore supporters.

Those supporters are mentally damaged. You can't help someone who is mentally damaged.

But I do think a change in the media narrative might add an extra point or two to Hillary's win. Maybe an extra seat on the Senate (Hopefully Burr will be kicked out).

[TrekLuver]

20. After the pussy grabbing I asked my co-worker what is it going to take for you to abandon this

Trashbag? And he said child molestation. So I came back with oh so assaulting women isn't good enough huh?

[NoGoodNamesLeft]

26. The woman he raped when she was 13 is speaking publicly today

And she has witnesses...including one who actually SAW the rape/s.

3PM pacific time with Lisa Bloom

[TrekLuver]

54. OMG yes I just saw...I'll make sure to leave work on time

[radius777]

25. exactly, to change the media coverage/narrative

Last edited Wed Nov 2, 2016, 03:54 PM - Edit history (1)

and get the focus back on Trump and his ugly ways, unfitness for office, clear and present danger to democracy, etc.

also its about undecided/independent/moderate voters, not Trump's hardcore support, which is not going to be affected by much of anything at this point. neither base will be. its the undecideds/ind/mods that are.

because Trump (imo) being the alt-right neonazi thug he is, having hired Bannon/Stone and other low-lifes, and with the support of Putin/Wiki, will likely have something else to dump (even if it's mostly bullshit, just as the Comey thing is) on us, which is why we must be ready with our own dumps and/or effective defense.

[TrekLuver]

56. Hopefully tonight will do just that !!

[napkinz]

15. if the MSM cover this today, this might be a November surprise ...

BREAKING: woman who sued Donald Trump for child rape breaks her silence today. http://ow.ly/5gbR305MW3N

see https://twitter.com/LisaBloom/status/793880513018785792

http://www.democraticunderground.com/12512573622

[musicblind]

17. Holy crap! How could they NOT cover that?

If this were a Clinton accuser, you know it would receive 24/7 coverage.

[napkinz]

24. how?

Last week they ignored the 12th woman who came forward accusing Trump of sexual assault.

[Dem2]

38. This is kind of the big deal I was expecting

Rape is no joke, child rape is a death sentence.

[napkinz]

46. yes it's serious

Hey, MSM, enough with the g-damn Emails!

[DLCWIdem]

18. Could be. But don't rely on it. GOTV.

Rick Wilson, a never Trump Republican strategist and campaigner for Evan McMullen Utah Indie candidate (you know the one that means Trump could lose Utah), hinted on twitter early in the week that there would be a Dump on Friday. Merely teasing or really know something? Your guess as good as mine. Edited on Review of previous post. WILSON HINTED AT SOMETHING NOT SEXUAL.SO THE RAPE CASE IS NOT IT.

[Awsi Dooger]

19. I've been expecting nothing

I still expect nothing.

You have to step back and evaluate the big picture. In a typical cycle we wouldn't be anticipating anything at this stage. Trump may be bizarre and dangerous and unhinged and everything else, but it still doesn't move the probability needle enough to make a late surprise more likely than not.

Apparently a few people on cable shows and twitter took advantage of the desire for more material, implying that it was inevitable.

[radius777]

21. There are several stories out there and I'm suprised

they didn't drop something on him after the last debate (in anticipation of Comey's bullshit, to drown it out), the way they did with the Machado story after the first debate.

Ones I can think of off the top of my head:

Trump Model Agency sweatshop - women may've been illegally brought in from eastern Euro countries, not paid, ill-treated, all slept in one apartment, advised to lie to customs. Ugly story consistent with Trump's misogyny, and speaks to hypocrisy about trade/immigration.

Trump inheritance battle - where he allegedly cut off the health insurance of a sick nephew/child to spite the brother/relative (i don't remember exact details). But it is a ugly story that is consistent with Trump's vindictiveness.

Trump alleged rape of his ex-wife Ivana. - iirc, this was alleged in the divorce battle.

Trump aleged rape of 13yo girl at sex party (not sure this one has enough substantiation for the news to cover it).

[brooklynite]

23. The goal would not be to damage him...it would need to be to get him to rise to the bait.

[cilla4progress]

31. Right!

Get him off the teleprompter and back onto the tweet machine!

[radius777]

33. exactly, and get the media to cover it

that is the clear pattern, if something is introduced, such as Judge Curiel, Khans, Machado, etc that hits at Trump's ego, and the media is forced to cover it - Trump can't resist taking the bait, thus he sets himself on fire and dances around like a crazed clown.

Can't believe our side didn't do this after the last debate, to make sure it headed off the Comey bullshit (or any other Oct surprise) and kept the media/Trump lighting each other on fire, while Hillary could just then talked about a positive vision and her policies. That is how you beat him, it really is that simple, and I'm surprised the strategists on our side haven't understood this by now. If they did we'd be up by 10+ points and the senate would be a sure thing.

[PeteSelman]

27. No, it would have come Saturday.

It's pretty amazing that the things that are already out there aren't enough to disqualify this fucking asshole. This thing shouldn't even be close.

[regnaD kciN]

28. When was the first?

I mean, even the pussy-grab tape came from outside the Clinton organization.

[michiganman1019]

29. At first I was optimistic and hopeful..

.. that something was going to come out.

Tuesday (yesterday), I must've refreshed DU over 40 times to catch the breaking news that didn't come.

Now I am pessimistic that there will be any release at all.

If, by some small chance there is , it will have to be a) be strong enough to affect headlines and b) be enough to effect voters who haven't voted already.

[NeverDump]

30. Plaintiff in child rape suit has a press conf today

At 3pm PT. Lisa Bloom is her attorney.

http://www.thedailybeast.com/cheats/2016/11/02/trump-child-rape-accuser-to-speak-today.html?via=mobile&source=copyurl

This could be nuclear.

[bluestateguy]

32. I don't know if the Rick Wilson fairy will come or not

So don't plan on it, but who knows.

If there is something out there, whoever has it has to time it perfectly to give it time to hit peak cycle in the news, without giving the Trump team adequate time to mount a major response.

[radius777]

39. was the MotherJones Russian spy story the Rick Wilson thing?

or at least of of them that he talked about? Is there another story, one that the media will actually cover?

Unfortunately Comey/FBI threw water on the spy story, which is a much bigger story than anything about the emails/wiki and all the other shit the media is smearing H with.

[bluestateguy]

41. No it isn't.

It has to do with sex/rape/abortion.

[DLCWIdem]

57. No not rape. He hinted at something bigger

Last edited Wed Nov 2, 2016, 08:15 PM - Edit history (1)

Although I don't know what a Republican would consider bigger than rape. There was a second tweet Fri a Liz she hinedvat something to do with NDA Don't know if these are just hot air or not. Said it wouldn't be coming until Friday

[bluestateguy]

58. What is MEA?

nt

[DLCWIdem]

59. Sorry corrected the post. NDA

Non disclosure agreements. Remember one of Trumps campaign managers tweeted something about his NDA.

[Metric System]

35. I'm surprised there hasn't been more about Trump's alleged ties to the mob.

[budkin]

37. Nope

But the child rape accuser is having a press conference in a few hours and that's going to be pretty devastating.

[radius777]

40. if the media covers it. /nt

[Thrill]

42. Can't believe no one leaked his tax returns

[bluestateguy]

44. There is still time for that.

I'm absolutely convinced that Obama would pardon an IRS employee who leaked them.

[workinclasszero]

43. It would have to be something on audio or video

like pu**ygate.

I mean look at all the horrible shit on drumpf already that the news media doesn't report on.

[Fahrenthold451]

45. Yes. One more. Tomorrow at the latest.

Save the best for last. It will be re sex.

[napkinz]

48. looks like it's TODAY ...

see http://www.democraticunderground.com/10028266825

[bushisanidiot]

47. The media likes to claim Friday news dumps "bury" the story, but the opposite is clearly true

considering the number of big stories that have come out on Fridays this year that gained traction through the saturday and sunday news shows. If nothing comes out by Friday afternoon then I'd say they have nothing. Since the last game of the world series is tonight, they may wait and get a jump on the weekend by dropping something tomorrow.

[radius777]

53. true and not true

dumps that aren't election related or don't take place close to an election, that the media really won't cover, are indeed dumped on friday so it won't be covered.

but (as you stated) the opposite is true on fridays during elections especially close to election day. because the media then goes wild with the story (see: Access hw tape, Comey, etc) and the opponent doesn't have much a opportunity to respond, lots of offices closed, people away, etc. And it gets covered all weekend while voters are home looking at tv.

[Avalux]

49. Just in: The woman who claims Donald raped her at 13 goes public later this afternoon.

He won't be able to keep quiet about that. No siree.

[napkinz]

50. yep, another member just posted ...

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10028266825

[Avalux]

52. It's a really serious accusation too, compounded since the woman was a CHILD at the time.

This could really be something huge, especially if she provides a lot of details. How awful for her and brave that she's going public.

(I'm assuming she's telling the truth, although I understand innocent until proven guilty).

[Buckeye_Democrat]

55. I hope that she sounds credible.

I watched the lawyer of a young woman, who accused FSU quarterback Jameis Winston of rape, give a press conference a few years ago. (The lawyer was the accuser's aunt.)

The press conference looked so unprofessional that FSU football fans, and other people, were "laughing" about it on forums.

It didn't have that effect on me, but a good presentation can make a big difference to some people.

[radius777]

51. could it be the NYT tape of him saying he isn't building the wall,

and disparaging his supporters, saying that he is mainly just putting on an act? That was brought up in the GOP primaries, his opponents kept saying that such a tape exists, and it should be released, etc.

Rick Wilson has also hinted the Oct surprise would damage Trump with his base.

If that exists and is leaked, that would be yyuuge, bigly, would expose Trump as just playing a role like the reality tv con-man he is.
