fivethirtyeight.com now has Trump with a 25% chance of winning. Things are trending his direction, and Clinton has got to be in clock countdown mode. Those early votes she banked may wind up being manna for her chances.

We all know how putrid Trump is. But but what an incredibly poor and utterly disliked candidate Clinton is as well. She should be absolutely destroying this turd of a human being, but she isn't. Very poor choice the Democrats made in having her be their standard bearer. Pathetic election between two basically awful human beings.

It's Yiddish word for a crooked lawyer. Schmuck is more appropriate

"Shyster", would be a more accurate description of Hillary than the Donald.

Trump is a con artist, flim-flam man, reality show maestro, master bullshitter, but he does actually get things done.

Hillary is simply a crooked lawyer who sold out the White House to the highest bidders. Hillary has accomplished fuckall, except steal money and that's the story of her 30 years in public offices.

That's a triumph for the alt-right Kool-Aid right there.

Oooh! So the FBI is looking into the Trump campaign's Putin ties now.

The FBI has been conducting a preliminary inquiry into Donald Trump's former campaign manager Paul Manafort's foreign business connections, law enforcement and intelligence sources told NBC News Monday.

My understanding was that they already had been looking into this prior to the latest email kerfuffle which made the timing all the more suspicious.

And now this. Trump the child rapist.

Trump lawyers given court date over lawsuit alleging rape of 13-year-old
Counsel for Jeffrey Epstein, associate of Prince Andrew convicted of underage sex crimes in Florida in 2008, also ordered to appear for December civil hearing
A federal judge in New York has ordered counsel for Donald Trump and the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein to appear in court along with the attorney for a woman referred to only as “Jane Doe” who alleges the Republican presidential nominee raped her when she was 13.

Judge Ronnie Abrams has slated an initial status conference in the civil lawsuit for 16 December in a New York district court.

The order raises the extraordinary prospect, were Trump to win the 8 November battle for the White House, of counsel for a US president-elect being called into federal court in proceedings relating to allegations of rape of an underage girl.

Trump has vociferously denied the accusations, dismissing them as fabrications and slamming the lawsuit as a sham designed to smear him as he runs for highest office. Epstein, an associate of the UK’s Prince Andrew who was convicted of underage sex crimes in Florida in 2008, has also denied the allegations.

A Guardian investigation this summer found that the lawsuit appeared to have been coordinated by a former producer on the Jerry Springer TV show who has been associated in the past with a range of disputed claims involving celebrities including OJ Simpson and Kurt Cobain. A publicist acting for “Jane Doe” also attempted to sell a video in which the woman describes her allegations against Trump to media outlets at a $1m price tag.

The court order gives no details of the legal complaint raised by “Jane Doe”. It instructs all parties to the case to set out in advance the nature of the allegations and the “principal defenses”, as well as any previous motions and discovery as well as the “estimated length of trial”.

The original federal lawsuit, filed in June, alleged that “Jane Doe” was sexually assaulted by Trump in 1994 at Epstein’s Manhattan home. Further claims were made that the real estate billionaire raped the then teenager at parties hosted by Epstein on the Upper East Side.

The Guardian investigation found that a publicist calling himself “Al Taylor” attempted to sell the videotape of “Jane Doe” relating her allegations for $1m. It linked Taylor through a variety of means including shared email addresses and phone numbers to Norm Lubow, who used to work on Springer’s daytime talk show.

Lubow was connected to a contentious claim, raised in the 1998 documentary movie Kurt and Courtney, that Courtney Love offered a fellow musician $50,000 to murder her husband, Kurt Cobain of Nirvana. Love denied the charge.

According to the New York Post, Lubow was also behind a tabloid newspaper story that OJ Simpson bought illicit drugs on the day his estranged wife Nicole Brown was killed.

When the Guardian quizzed “Al Taylor” about his true identity, the publicist replied: “Just be warned, we’ll sue you if we don’t like what you write. We’ll sue your ass, own your ass and own your newspaper’s ass as well, punk.”

The Trump presidential campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the forthcoming court proceedings. A lawyer for the Trump Organization told the Guardian in July: “This is basically a sham lawsuit brought by someone who desires to impact the presidential election.”

Democrats seek injunction against Trump allies over voter intimidation concerns
Party officials in four swing states seek federal action, saying Trump campaign and associates plan to intimidate minority voters on election day
Democratic party officials in four swing states have sought federal court injunctions against the Trump campaign and its affiliates, alleging they plan to intimidate minority voters on election day.

The lawsuits argue that the Trump campaign, along with the nominee’s close confidant Roger Stone and state Republican party officials, is “conspiring to threaten, intimidate, and thereby prevent minority voters in urban neighborhoods from voting”, citing Trump’s continuing efforts to recruit “election observers” and Stone’s plans, as revealed by the Guardian, to conduct unorthodox “exit polling” on election day, as evidence of potentially “virulent harassment”.

The lawsuits follow another legal action taken in federal court in New Jersey last week by the Democratic National Committee, which argues that the Republican National Committee is in violation of a 1982 consent decree that forbids the organisation from monitoring polls on election day.

Stone told the Guardian last week his group “Stop The Steal” planned to conduct exit polling in nine major cities in swing states, ostensibly to counter “election theft” and gauge the accuracy of electronic voting machines. But a number of polling and election law experts cast doubts on the methodology and suggested the process could be a smokescreen for voter intimidation.

For months, Donald Trump has warned supporters of a “rigged election” and encouraged them to monitor polling areas in cities such as St Louis, Chicago and Philadelphia. The lawsuits, filed by state Democratic parties in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Arizona and Nevada, would cover many of the cities Stone said he intended to target.

The filings argue that such efforts, along with Trump’s rhetoric, could violate both the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which outlawed discriminatory voting practices in the American south, and the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871, which outlawed intimidation against African American voters.

Election law experts said it was unclear whether courts would issue a broad order, as requested in the filings, to simply prevent voter intimidation, but they could look in more detail at the temporary restraining order requested against Stone’s exit polling.

“It could be useful in getting the word out about these activities, and secondly getting the [Republican state] parties and [Trump] campaign on record saying they will not engage in these activities,” said Rick Hasen, an election law expert at the University of California whose Election Law blog first reported the lawsuits on Monday.

The Republican National Committee has been under a consent decree since the 1981 gubernatorial election in New Jersey, when the group sent armed off-duty law enforcement officers to patrol polls in minority neighborhoods. These volunteers wore armbands that identified them as an unofficial “Ballot Security Task Force” and erected posters warning against voter fraud.

The RNC last week said claims it was now in violation of the consent decree, set to expire at the start of 2017, were “completely meritless”.

Stone’s exit pollers, self-titled “vote protectors”, had originally planned to use similar non-official identification badges, until these were removed from the organisation’s website late last week. The organisation is still encouraging its volunteers to livestream video from polling stations.

In an emailed statement, Stone dismissed the lawsuits as “without merit” and argued the lawyers who filed them “could face sanctions”. The former Richard Nixon adviser said the polling was not being coordinated with the Trump campaign or the RNC.

“We seek only to determine if the election is honestly and fairly conducted and to provide an evidentiary basis for a challenge to the election if that’s not the case,” Stone said.

“I assume the purpose of this bogus lawsuit is to distract from the voter fraud the Democrats have traditionally engaged in.”

The Guardian contacted the Trump campaign and the Clinton campaign’s general legal counsel for a response to the recent lawsuits and is awaiting a response.

The child rape charge is bogus, and the charges of being a russian spy are laughable, it wasn't long ago you numpties were convinced his candidacy was a money making scam, or he was in cahoots with bill clinton, then there was the white supremacist phase, and now this.

However, it seems that, whichever one of these 2 win the presidency, its highly likely they will be impeached. Would that mean either kaine or pence become prez in the near future?

It wasn't that long ago that you were proclaiming him to be a genius and and shoe-in for the election and making stupid bets.

How would that happen without either party having a clear 2/3 majority in the Senate?

You would hope wrong, and if you actually checked you would see I have on many other threads.

Just curious but why are you intent that I no longer post on Teakdoor, is it because you are like many of the other clowns on Teakdoor that take offense to someone posting from a side of the isle that you don't sit on or do you just follow the rest of the liberal crowd here and dislike disagreement?
