It does explain why Giuliani was willing to go out there and do the talk shows today when Kellyanne and Mike Pence have gone underground and cancelled all their appearances. Giuliani is clearly inured to disgusting people and behaviors.

Well..Billy Bush is on his way out the door. It was announced by the network that he will not be on air next week. Good.

Turn on your TV-- Trump has just schlepped out all these Bill accusers for a press conference and intends to have them all in the audience.

Yup! Of course he's probably just thinking what a bunch of fat pigs they are and how The Donald rapes only the best women ---

Soon to be seen on Trump's twitter feed:

"Believe me, I'm going to grope and fondle only 10s! Bill Clinton only abuses fat losers. Not even close!"

The optics are horrible. (I know everybody hates that word. lol)

It looks like a city council meeting in Paducah. :blink:

This is what it looks like when Breitbart only has 24 hours to slap together a smear.

NYT's live blog says that Bannon was in the back of the room with a grin plastered across his face.

Yes, I saw him. :rofl:

I also saw him peaking out from behind the curtains at one of Trump's recent appearances. He is the physical embodiment of a human gremlin.

I mentioned something about her living in NY and he informed me that Giuliani had law firms in New York and Houston. It occurred to me today to look into it a little more and as it turns out, his law firm offers legal and lobbying services to the oil and gas industry as well as the coal industry. They also represent big pharma. He left the firm earlier this year under "friendly" circumstances.

I've often felt like the whole Trump obsession with saving the coal industry (which we know he won't) to be overrepresented in this election. He brings it up when nobody is asking.

So, no, they're not just "old New York buddies". Giuliani is playing Trump like a fiddle. Giuliani is not as addle brained as he appears but Trump is even more stupid than I originally thought.

Incidentally, Giuliani represented Purdue Pharma, the company that was brought up on federal charges for misleading the medical community and general public about the addictive nature of OxyContin. They settled for around 650 million and triggered the current heroin epidemic.

Trump's support of coal industry is in my opinion a political move that not only garners support in states like Ohio, but also in the West amongst the hard-rock miners who have suffered from regulation.

Giuliani may appear to some as addle-brained, but in person he is as sharp as can be.

Trump strikes me like many celebrities or rich people, brilliant in one area which makes them think they then are smart in every area - and media pays attention to them because of their celebrity. Incredible he has turned a Presidential election into one big reality show.

Yey, the debate is on. Might be time to watch Westworld episode 2, but this could be very entertaining.

They're sitting with the Trump kids and being ignored because that's not awkward at all.
