They are trying so hard to conjure up an October surprise and meanwhile, it is raining Trump scandals. They should have seen it coming.

(17,415 posts)The movie Rudy is in also lists Mike Pence in the cast and reveals this info.......
While many Republican and conservative figures like Rudy Giuliani and Vice President Mike Pence will be targets of Borat's pranks for this film, it is unclear if the same can be said for Democrats and liberals. However, one unnamed politician was cited as committing career-damaging actions during production of this film.
Currently Pence is the only politician list in the cast column.
wnylib
(21,728 posts)in Trump political circles, Rudy can be considered a politician. Could be that he is the one referred to as committing career ending behavior in the film. However, I doubt that his behavior in the film would end his career with Trump since Trump is more likely to pat him on the back for it.

(3,476 posts)For instance, look at this one -- Giuliani was actually stupid enough to think that a girl a third his age had the hots for him.
As the old honey-trap warning goes: If you're a 3 and she's a 10, she's not after you for your body.

We can't afford having him around for 4 more fucking years!
NoRoadUntravelled
(2,626 posts)in office 4 more years. That way he's only paying taxes in China AND filling his Chinese bank account at the same time.
Favorite pass times of tRump are to lie, bully, invoke violence, take babies from their parents with no plan to reunite them, take health insurance from millions of families, remain aloof as nearly a quarter million of us die from Covid19, millions more out of work and food banks stretched to their limits. All that while destroying the environment and building a wall that doesn't make sense. Oh, and not pay taxes. It's a psychopath's dream job. He's got the GOP to thank for all of it, especially Mitch McConnell.

(790 posts)Last Sunday "60 Minutes" aired Lesley Stahl's interview with Alexey Navalny, the leader of the opposition political Progress Party in Russia, who is recuperating from being poisoned on a flight to Moscow.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/alexey-navalny-poisoning-putin-russia-60-minutes-2020-10-18/
"But Angela Merkle of Germany and Emmanuel Macron of France have persuaded the European Union to impose sanctions over this.
Lesley Stahl: Well, all these leaders have signed on, except Donald Trump. And--
Alexey Navalny: Yes, I-- I have noticed it. (LAUGH)
Lesley Stahl: Is it important to you that he condemn this action?
Alexey Navalny: So, I think it's extremely important that everyone, of course, including and maybe in the first of all, president of United States, to be very against using chemical weapons in the 21st Century."
NoRoadUntravelled
(2,626 posts)It makes the most sense of anything so far.
I hope Joe Biden has a way to bring this up during the debate if the moderator doesn't.

(81,560 posts)quoting some insider as saying there'd be breaking news THIS week (for some reason I'm remembering a prediction of Thursday) where the key point was something along the lines of "the only question anyone will ask will be 'what taxes?' "
Of course it's one of only a few times when I didn't make a note about it, dammit.
Anybody remember seeing that?

(81,560 posts)But there it is again: the word "exhaustion."
I commented elsewhere here that the word "exhausted" sure is popping up a lot - in the punditry and in conversation.
Truly, I have never seen it like this. Seriously. NEVER. I'm old.
niyad
(113,738 posts)poli-sci profs telling us that, even though it was hard to imagine, one day there would be someone far worse than nixon. I should ask him if he remembers that dreadful,prediction.
But, exhausted or endlessly outraged, we are not giving up.

Yeah, I get the Fitzmas thing - how well I remember. Mueller - same thing.
I just wondered if this was another piece to fit into a large and complex scandal-puzzle.
Seems like new pieces show up every doggone day.
