Yes, I know it is pretty low - however apparently true - but Trump has an incest problem. If you google 'trump' and 'incest' - the page fills with articles. The most popular ones are where he has stated on camera how he would like to date Ivanka and how the thing they have in common is 'sex'.

Trump is trying to drudge up conspiracy theories and scandals from the 90s - long forgotten.
How should Hillary respond?

(30 posts)I think she should. There was only one 'gutter fight' moment in the primaries when Marco went on the attack - and Trump went nuts. Let America see the guy that we are potentially giving the nuclear codes to.

(58,785 posts)Trp is proud of his daughter meeting his standard for women. He has a personality DIsORDER with serious dysfunctions. He did not understand how some would take his comments when he got carried away making them.
Also note his surprisingly supportive children and good relationships with them.
In any case, HRC will not be hitting this slimy nonissue.

(14,255 posts)Disgusting that they BOTH have so much true and verifiable ammunition, isn't it.
Both live in well-earned glass mansions, and both would be surrounded by shards of glass.
Another reason I will only support Bernie.

Middle Americans who fall somewhere between GOP & DEM will not care about the two they see as both being horrible.
Hillary won't win over Independents and Trump won't offend Independents. They're sitting this one out.

And Trump is basically a cowardly bully so you know he won't retaliate

Plus, he's already provided plenty of other material to hammer him with. Elizabeth Warren has the right idea.

(Besides, attacks like that is what superpacs are for--Clinton herself doesn't need to go there)

(15,805 posts)What are you thinking... is this your sick imagination at work?
Women's' rights and efforts to uplift women and girls are at the top of Hillary's agenda. What would it say about her policies if she were to start exploiting vulnerable young women -- real life women and girls who are the victims of sex abusers -- in a crass and dirty effort to attack Trump?
Trump has more than enough legitimate negatives to hit him with rather than trying to attack him by hurting his daughter.

(21,738 posts)When that happens, it would be a moment to show how she is a mature adult compared to him. Most people will be cringing. Hopefully, she will be prepared with a classy response.

(30 posts)That is when this is going to be a powder keg. Can you imagine how low he is going to go and how tempting it will be, out of anger, to join him...

(19,053 posts)The reality tv version of political campaigns really is a symptom of where we are as a country. We really must demand better from the media, and not get caught up in it ourselves.

(41,932 posts)Donald can easily say she's the one with the "dirty mind" and that his daughter is wonderful and she's got a lot of gall reading things into words when Bill committed acts, etc. He's already done that with things that are far more provable and is getting away with it.
Hillary needs to run for president, not finger-wagger-in-chief, no matter how creepy the little fuckweasel is.

(2,252 posts)Let Trump expose his own perverted fantasies. That is if Trump's perversions are really only just fantasies.
I think actually he is going through his conspiracy theories too quickly - needs to pace himself. Might have to end up talking about the issues
