So out of everything, THIS is the thing that might sink him?

I mean, it is ugly and despicable, but it's probably about the 10th most despicable thing he's said. And it's the only one that happened exclusively NOT while running for president.

I'm a bit perplexed by this too.

He's said a lot of bad things. But this was him basically stating that he has no problem raping a woman. Kissing them before they could even say no. Talking about because of his power he can do these things.

This is bad.

Also, heads up, this apparently is running sunday? Its going to get even worse i think

As I wrote above, I doubt this will create a dent in his support, which has consistently been between 40%-43% of voters. But there's going to be a palpable effect if the news cycle constantly introduces new reasons to stay away from him; as people begin to drift away from minor-party candidates and undecideds either decide to vote or stay home, Clinton's share only needs to rise 2%-3% for this to be considered an almost blow-out.

It is an interesting phenomenon. While repeatedly insulting:

A sitting President of African descent;
A federal judge of Mexican descent;
A sitting Senator of Native American descent;
A gold star family of Middle Eastern descent;
A Miss Universe of Venezuelan descent; and
A hypothetical 400-lb internet hacker of unknown descent

demonstrates a carelessness and irresponsibility that should reasonably be considered grounds for termination of one's candidacy for the most powerful public office on the planet;

it is not until the moment you step onto the Access Hollywood bus and boast about attempting to boink white women that your career is over.

but seriously, I think the difference this time is that this quote is more than just a racist or sexist comment;

it is actually an admission of having engaged in sexual assault

Yup. This is way different than just being an asshole and mocking people.

Chaffetz just pulled his endorsement. Can't imagine Ryan doesn't as well by tomorrow. The campaign is crumbling. This is it folks...like Strat said this is on another level than insulting people and no video-taped statement is going to get him the it of this. It's going to be a brutal 30 days for this cocksucker, and honestly he deserves every bit of it.

It's no coincidence that this came out the day after Trump said it was his "Apprentice" character who said mean things about women, that he, Donald J. Trump, has "more respect than anyone" for women.
I've been telling my wife since June that the trove of stuff they must have on Trump is yuge. I'm sure there's a lot more to come in the next few weeks.

I kinda want to buy the compilation box set of news coverage from this election cycle, whenever it is that they'd better be putting it out.
