Oct 20th 2 am UK time.

Last chance for the Establishment to stop the Trump surge in the polls.
World leaders will be watching, Establishments will be tuning in on the edge of their seats in trepidation.

People will be laughing, diving into the popcorn and knocking back the alcohol.

Round 3. Rock'n'roll.

Trump may expose the media bias by bypassing the media and bringing something out that they have not looked into much to an audience of millions and then they will have to talk about it.

Washington, Truman, Kennedy and many other great US presidents would be spinning in their graves to see a crook like trump running for president. He will turn the US into a laughing stock, like South Africa, with its crooked president. He is a joke. Now I am off to listen to the late great Bowie, as the world really has gone down hill since he left us, and christ it will get worse, so eat, drink and laugh while we still can!

'Surely Steve Bannon knows that any childish crap like that will have people throwing their pinnies over their faces and giving up on him.'

Depends what it is. The Daily Mail and Mirro have been reporting something about Bill's past over the past few weeks. It may be that. Trump's aim will presumably be to expose the hypocrisy of the Clintons.

They accuse Trump of being "unfit" etc, but it depends if there is a large amount of hypocrisy.

The Clinton camp asked for the protocol of familes shaking hands before the debate to be scrapped this time, according to some reports in case Bill Clinton was embarrassed by some Trump stunt.

It may be someone from Bill's past rather than Hillary's, if it is true at all.

Unless Malik Obama says: here is a video of Barack Obama being born in a hospital in Kenya with a date stamp and a clear identity tag then I don't see how he could bring anything at all to the campaign. And even then it's not about Obama it's about Hillary. He'd have to have a video of Hillary being born in Kenya with a date stamp and identity tag. Sorry to go on about this but my oh my I don't see the point.

Apparently the National Enquirer is coming out with stuff about Hillary tomorrow, but I can't see that having any effect.

'It's like revealing HC is a lesbian'

Yes, that wouldn't have any effect. Not sure what Malik Obama might say.

'New O'Keefe video on YouTube like i linked you yesterday.'

Thanks, Missswatch, I will check it out.

I'm not watching tonight. If he's seriously going to bring Malik Obama to the debate and reveal that HC is a lesbian then I'm not even going to bother listening to the news tomorrow. What nonsense.

Missswatch · 19/10/2016 20:33

Claig? New O'Keefe video on YouTube like i linked you yesterday. Havn't seen it myself yet but enjoy

On the contraryAuit

Tensions with Russia have been mounting for the past few years. Putin has sent Russian fighters press on Western Europe air space. Russian planes have bombed UN aid convoys. He took over Crimea, is maintaining war in Ukraine, and bombing Syrian rebels instead of ISIS. The Russians seem to have been messing up with the US election.

I'm guessing Putin thinks this is a good time to threaten war, as the American public is voting for their President.

The dovest of American presidents (Jimmy Carter) served only one term.
I do think it's not in Obama's direction that you should look.

WinchesterWoman · 19/10/2016 20:32

I don't see what Malik Obama's got to do with anything. That's just stupid. It's like revealing HC is a lesbian. Who cares, except for the fact she may have cheated. Well, Donald Trump cheated so they're even. Where's the win? It's just silly.

Politican groupies can do unusual things.
I remember when Ted Heath was Tory leader, a woman rushed into the loo while he was there and grabbed the soap he had been using, to take it as a souvenir
(I'm a mine of significant historical information)

Auit, it is very strange because Obama has done a very good job in avoiding war with Russia over the past few years when some people wanted him to. He has been criticised by some for being weak in not standing by his red line, but he has made sure that no outright war started either in Syria or Ukraine.

So it is strange that now with an election just three weeks away that there should be so much talk of war in Syria.

OMG

Make sure you tune in before the debate actually starts. There may be some surprises. World leaders have all set their alarm clocks early and have minions watching live feeds hours before the start in case Trump throws a surprise.

"Steve Bannon Reportedly Says Malik Obama “Just the Appetizer” for Wednesday Night’s Debate. Ugh.

According to CNN’s Brian Stelter, Obama’s Trump-supporting half-brother Malik won’t be the only bizarre guest the Trump camp will be bringing to Wednesday night’s debate. Stelter said this morning that Trump campaign CEO Steve Bannon told him Malik Obama would be “just an appetizer” and that surprise attendees from Hillary and Bill Clinton’s pasts are also set to appear."

First, Hillary will only have that power from January

Obama is still in power and acting very provocatively for an outgoing president. I've never seen behaviour like this from any president at the end of their tenure and I've seen quite a few come and go.
Of course Obama is a big part of the Clinton scheme.

Why Is Obama Threatening Russia With World War 3 Right Before The Election?

A racist misogynist who doesn't pay his bills and has boasted of sexual assault is going to "drain the swamp".

'OK, he now has a "drain the swamp" plan for ethics in Washington'

Yes it is a new hashtag that he has been using today #DrainTheSwamp

Pretty effective. That will definitely appeal to the base.
