Trump’s call is nothing new: He’s been saying during campaign speeches for months that he’d appoint someone to investigate Clinton, while his crowd chanted “Lock her up” in response.
CONWAY: Because I know him better and I know better. “Just kiss. I don’t even wait”. 29 whole days. But the “unless” was a truly weird moment that is hard not to read into – as is Conway citing the “commitment” she made to Trump. Why is she shielding Republicans from charges of sexual harassment or assault? During a post-debate interview with CNN, Conway insisted that Trump can’t possibly be a serial sexual assaulter of women, since he has never grabbed her personal pussy.
‘In other words these people on their high horses are accusing him of being this very bad person, and really the words I think are most harmful is when everybody’s running around saying he’s condoning sexual assault, ‘ Conway told Kelly Sunday night. Look no further than Roger Ailes, who was ousted from Fox News after multiple women came forward and accused him of harassment.
One Trump aide described the environment as a “hurricane” and that the campaign was still determining the extent of the damage.
That list includes sitting senators John McCain, Rob Portman, Kelly Ayotte, John Thune, Cory Gardener, Shelley Moore Capito, Mike Crapo, Deb Fischer and Dan Sullivan, all of whom had previously said they were supporting Trump.
“Yes, lets do that”, Conway said.
Ailes vehemently denied the allegations. And they may get a Hillary-dominated White House, Congress, and Supreme Court because of it. “This is not about money”.
“The guy has been in the public eye for thirty years”, the source said of Trump. Unless he still refuses to acknowledge that he contributed to the same rape culture that allows Hillary Clinton to be blamed for her husband’s alleged actions? Trump’s surrogates seem to answer that question differently.
“Donald Trump is channeling the frustration of a lot of Americans he hears from”, Conway said, adding that the anger stems from what some voters perceive to be “different set of rules for this woman, as goes her emails”.
This same tactic was used against Anita Hill in 1991 to discredit her accusations that Clarence Thomas sexually harassed her when she worked for him. The sources were granted anonymity in order to speak candidly.
