Substance Please!

It is a sad statement that the political consultants apparently think Trump's tasteless private remarks make him unelectable more than his proposal to cut taxes when the country is 20 trillion in debt...and he has a plan to fit it.

I guess we're never going to hear the debate on how to handle that, given the latest low blow that came out today (see Drudge).

based on their gender is indeed a major issue.
As is his attitude toward Mexicans, Muslims, Jews, Blacks and anyone else he hates on simply based on their bodies or ethnicity.

Other issues are important for sure, but disparaging 3/4th of the population and setting up a superior/ inferior relationships in this country must be finally put away and not supported anymore.
