The Release of the Pee Tapes Will Make Zero Difference

Trump won't resign in discrace - he has no shame

The GOP won't oust him - they haven't gotten their tax cuts yet*

His base numbers won't budge

Evangelicals will make excuses and continue their support

We've known about the tapes for so long that all the jokes have been made and the shock is worn off

Trump has been caught in so many lies that another one is no big deal

Getting it out in the open may be the best thing for Trump

*Pence will sign the tax cuts but that combined with his lack of base may condemn the party come 2018

All their own sins are projected on Democrats, so we're known to lie viciously and despicably at every turn. And of course they're too wise to believe anything we say.

Their election of Rump makes me believe that some of these people have been weaponized to such a degree that they really would vote for Jabba the Hut if he were presented by their party--to defeat us. They would reject all truths about him and accept only the image presented to them by their hopeful handlers.

Then there are the others we have to hope will reconnect their avowed values to their political behaviors.

They rant all day about the supposed "perversions" of the Queer community and the horrors of Trans people using gender appropriate bathrooms and using the military as a "social experiment", but Trump literally talking about feeling entitled to sexually assault women by grabbing them by their genitals ultimately didn't matter to them. Even people like Jason Chaffetz- whom denounced those comments and initially said that he was so appalled that he couldn't vote for Trump and look his daughter in the eyes- later changed his tune (and probably voted for Trump). And apparently there were still plenty of people out there whom felt that Hillary's private e-mail server was more of a moral atrocity than any of the numerous awful things Trump has done and said in his entire lifetime. Republicans will find PLENTY of ways to justify the contents of the pee tape if it is real and is ever released to the public.

"Mr. President, it is time to look in the mirror, accept responsibility, apologize to the American people, and declare an end to this behavior immediately," he wrote. "While what I’m urging may not be the 'Trump' brand, it is the brand of a leader. We need a leader. You must lead!"

"I suggest you lead by first washing out Mr. Scaramucci’s mouth with a bar of soap," he continued. "After a thorough rinsing, strip his credentials and escort him personally off the White House grounds."

This is exactly what putin wants to achieve so I won't be surprised if the release of the tapes is imminent by kremlin via Wikileaks. Humiliting US and lowering its position in the world where its vote in UN, NATO, WTO, etc. will be severly diminished, will make Putin even more powerful on his expansion quest following dugin's plan.

Former Models for Donald Trump’s Agency Say They Violated Immigration Rules and Worked Illegally


Republican nominee Donald Trump has placed immigration at the core of his presidential campaign. He has claimed that undocumented immigrants are “taking our jobs” and “taking our money,” pledged to deport them en masse, and vowed to build a wall on the Mexican border.

But the mogul’s New York modeling agency, Trump Model Management, has profited from using foreign models who came to the United States on tourist visas that did not permit them to work here, according to three former Trump models, all noncitizens, who shared their stories with Mother Jones. Financial and immigration records included in a recent lawsuit filed by a fourth former Trump model show that she, too, worked for Trump’s agency in the United States without a proper visa.

56. I think Trump's base is lower than you might think. Okay so he's currently at around 40% approval,

but a lot of those don't have a clue what is going on. They vote Republican because that's what their family do. They think Trump is a businessman who is highly successful. They rarely watch or read the news, and if a tape came out, it would be the biggest news since his election. Trump's favorite poll, Rasmussen, puts those who strongly support Trump at only 25%. There's around 15% out there that support Trump but are not hard-line about it. They can be squeezed.

63. It would make a huge difference. He would be gone inside of 2 weeks.

The Repugs in congress are already unhappy with him and are worried about their 2018 re-election chances. They would force him out under threat of impeachment if something like this existed and came out. It's not his base that he has to worry about.

It's already well documented that he's a creepy buffoon with the comb-over from Hell. Anyone with any sense at all already knows the guy is a joke.

His hardcore supporters have already swallowed so much, why would a little watersports make a difference?

79. Well, that would put him between a rock & a hard place. Evangelicals will forgive him anything just

as long as he says that he's asked God for forgiveness. However, his ego won't allow him to admit any wrongdoing. Interesting conundrum. Probably a staffer will steal his phone, tweet out a lame apology, then all will be forgiven. His Cult45 is so invested in him for some pathetic reason that they will forgive him anything, but that's only 30% or so of the population. It's the other 70% that has to get outraged and that just might do it.

If there is a tape of him saying the N word on the apprentice, he would be gone the very
next day, and there must be a tape because Tom Arnold said there was.

Doesnt matter though, because Lousie Mensch and Claude Taylor are saying there
might be arrests tomorrow, well they said that around two months ago, but they
seem to be in the know.
