Sadly, Hillary is forced by media to stand next to Trump “pretending he is her equal” when he’s not.

I think Donald--at this moment is running on pure vindictiveness and Hillary hate. He has nothing to lose tonight --his vileness is out in the open. He will be brutal IMHO.

Reminder: Trump's entire goal going forward is to bring Hillary and the rest of us into the gutter where he/Bannon/Bossie dwell.

Former President Bill Clinton campaigns in Wisconsin
Published 8:25 PM CDT Oct 08, 2016


GREENFIELD, Wis. —Former President Bill Clinton spoke at the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Union Hall Saturday.


He was greeted by Hillary Clinton supporters and pretty much stuck to her Democratic presidential campaign theme of "Stronger Together."

"I think that we are now in a position to rise together, to grow together, to lift incomes, to increase upward mobility, to reduce income inequality -- but it's all hinging on this election," Bill Clinton said.

Greenfield is a suburb of Milwaukee,WI. --And Chelsea will be in Racine WI on Monday.


I had googled Wisconsin news and Bill Clinton and a few stories such as above came up but so so so many came of with headlines saying Bill had a heckler and accused him of being a rapist.



Reposted:


Bill basically said that when others pore poison down your throat -don't drink it.

He laughed. As others have said above, I suspect Hillary will have to respond to this question tonight at the debate.!!!

Trump apologizes for 2005 vulgar words

Just hours after a 2005 video tape was released showing Donald Trump making lewd and graphic comments about winning, the Republican presidential nominee issued a video apology.

ST. LOUIS – Donald Trump vowed Saturday to "never" drop out of the presidential race, even as a parade of Republicans called on him to do just that in the wake of sexually aggressive comments about women on a leaked video tape.
...........................
He made his announcement after huddling with advisers at Trump Tower, a day after revelations that threw their presidential campaign into turmoil and inspired a rare apology from the New York businessman.
..........................

That 2005 tape — in which Trump talks about being able to "do anything" to women because he is wealthy and says he often kisses and grabs them without warning — set off what may be an existential crisis for his campaign.

A steady stream of Republicans began to call for Trump to step aside as nominee.

Attorney Gloria Allred and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump (composite image)


Embattled Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump reportedly boasted about his penis size in a lurid 2012 back-and-forth with feminist attorney Gloria Allred.

The Daily Beast reported Saturday — and Raw Story noted at the time of the offensive remarks — that Trump boasted about the size of his genitalia during a legal case against Allred regarding a transgender beauty pageant contestant.

In 2012, Allred was hired by trans beauty contestant Jenna Talackova, who had been barred from competing in the Miss Universe pageant because she was not a “naturally born” woman.

At a press conference, Allred said that Talackova was being unfairly “excluded from a business opportunity” and sued for discrimination. During the press appearance, Allred pointed out that when Takackova — a former Miss Canada — applied to the Miss Universe pageant, she did not demand proof that Trump was a “naturally born” male.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (WBAY) – For the first time since winning Wisconsin’s presidential primary last April, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) returned to the state Wednesday to campaign for Hillary Clinton and promote voting early.

The crowd waiting when doors opened at 3:45 p.m. was smaller than the crowds that showed up for Sanders before the state primary, when Sanders held rallies in both Green Bay and Appleton attracting thousands of people.

Sanders focused his speech on how Clinton will help the country with her economic plan. He also talked about raising the minimum wage, improving the criminal justice system, and making college affordable........................

Stumping for Clinton, Feingold in Madison, Sanders appeals to Wisconsin's 'progressive heritage'

Source: The Cap Times



JESSIE OPOIEN 9 hrs ago

Returning to Wisconsin for the first time since he won the state's presidential primary in April, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders campaigned on Wednesday in Madison for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and former Sen. Russ Feingold.

Sanders spent a half-hour encouraging a crowd of about 1,200 to vote for Clinton and Feingold, after introductions from Feingold and environmental advocate Tia Nelson.

He tied his argument to a long list of progressive causes including voting rights, raising the minimum wage, pay equity, health care access, college affordability, immigration reform and maintaining Social Security.

Sanders also made an impassioned case for Wisconsinites to maintain the state's "fantastic progressive heritage" by electing Feingold to the Senate seat he held for 18 years, until Republican Sen. Ron Johnson unseated him in 2010.

I do hope Hillary and Pres. Obama can make it to WI soon.

..........................Hillary Clinton has not been in Wisconsin since the primary election. Clinton and President Obama canceled a stop in Green Bay after the Pulse Nightclub Shooting in Orlando.

Chelsea Clinton has been active in the state pushing early voting.

Wisconsin helped elect President Barack Obama in the previous two elections, but polls show the state could swing red or blue this November. A Sept. 21 Marquette University Law School Poll gives Clinton a slight edge over Trump, 45-42 percent among likely voters.

Action 2 News will have coverage of both events tonight.

Activists blast 'O'Reilly Factor' Chinatown piece as racist

By LYNN ELBER


Oct. 5, 2016 9:14 PM EDT



LOS ANGELES (AP) — Watchdog and activist groups are outraged by a Fox News Channel segment in which an interviewer asked people in New York's Chinatown if he was supposed to bow to greet them, if they were selling stolen goods and if they could "take care of North Korea for us."

Several organizations condemned humorist Jesse Watters' piece on "The O'Reilly Factor," calling it racist and demeaning to Asian-Americans.

"It's 2016. ...............................

At one point in Monday's nearly five-minute segment, an elderly woman's silence in response to a query was paired with a clip from Mel Brooks' "Young Frankenstein" in which Madeline Kahn shouts, "Speak, speak, why don't you speak?!"






............................................On Wednesday, the Asian Americans Advancing Justice affiliation said it was outraged by the "blatant, racist and offensive stereotypes of Chinese Americans."

"It is unconscionable that a news organization would sanction a segment that laughs at a community of people, including Watters ridiculing elderly Chinese Americans who were limited English-proficient," the group said.

....................

..................So it’s not surprising that, when the debate ended, a narrow majority of viewers thought that Pence won:

But as the sun rose, a different narrative of the debate emerged.

At this point, it’s important to note that Tim Kaine is a lawyer. Sometimes lawyers cross-examine witnesses, breaking them down in real time for the judge and jury. That’s not what Kaine did last night.

Last night, Kaine conducted a deposition. In a deposition, a lawyer questions a witness outside of the courtroom, but everything is recorded and can be used later on. These aren’t flashy or scripted affairs. A deposition can be repetitive and boring. But over many hours, a skilled lawyer can get what he wants out of a witness.

What Kaine wanted to accomplish last night was to force Pence to react to some of Trump’s most outrageous statements. This was important both to remind people that Trump said those things and to place Pence in the uncomfortable position of having to react.

He pivoted to that topic again and again. This was part of his response to an early question about why some voters distrust Hillary Clinton:..........................

The segment shows correspondent Jesse Watters interviewing Asian-American people in New York’s Chinatown on their thoughts on the election, interspersed with movie clips portraying Asian stereotypes.

Those included asking people to teach him how to bow, asking if “everything’s made in China,” asking whether one person knows karate, and accusing a vendor of selling stolen watches, to name a few.

At one point, Watters interviews an elderly woman who does not appear to speak English, followed by a movie clip that says, “Speak! Speak! Why don’t you speak!”

He also asks two young women “how do they dance in China,” and briefly has them dance for him.
