Am I the only one to find these "historic" allegations highly suspect and bandwagon-like?
As soon as the Jimmy Savile revelations broke, people could smell money from miles around and began their creative writing, knowing that the police wanted to limit the damage to their reputation for not catching Savile whilst he was alive and making much of the ammunition they had been handed.
Similar story with Trump? Surely, if a man that "attractive" had groped an unwilling victim, she would have yelled loud and long at the time?

I don't like Trump but I can see how he appeals to America's working classes.  From a foreigners point of view however I think Hillary is the lesser of 2 evils.  ::)

I'm suspicious of these women coming forward at this late stage of the presidential election campaign.  Why didn't they come forward earlier during the nomination campaign? It smacks of an establishment stitch up to me.  :-X

I would say "a plague on both their houses"! They are both as corrupt and self-serving as each other - unusual in politicians, you must admit?
Has there ever been an honest, open and truthful politician with integrity? One that isn't in it solely for his own ends and not to have duck-houses provided with our money.....

Teddy Roosevelt is famous for saying " speak softly, carry a big stick"

Trump is more of a " speak softly, carry a big dick " kind of guy. :)

Trump now wants them both to take a drugs test before the next debate, saying that she was "all pumped up" during the debate, but could hardly walk to her car afterwards.  :-\

He's sounding increasingly unhinged, but who knows maybe she had had a little sniff of the Colombian Marching Powder......  ::)  :)

I sincerely believe he has a screw loose. Unfortunately, I can't see his supporters accepting Hilary as president. There will be animosity all round after the election.

I was reading that Trump has what is known as a 'personality disorder'

Apparently he is a sociopath.

We in Blighty use the term psychopath rather than sociopath.

You wouldn't want either as president though.

They share similar traits. Lack of empathy and no feeling of guilt, for example.

Sociopaths can have empathy with close friends, so my shrink tells me.  ;) ;)

Donald hasn't got any close friends, just hangers on.

If the Pope had been interviewed by Howard Stern ten or so years ago, the resulting transcripts would read very much the same as Trumps...

We are not Americans (yet) and can therefore not apply our criteria to their election or its candidates.

No one in their right mind thought that that buffoon George Wanka Bush would achieve a second term, yet he did...

This race might only have few weeks left to run, but it is far from over... And whilst the polls are in Hilary's favour, don't expect her to win.

She will win. The alternative is too crazy for even the yanks to consider.

That's true.

Whatever, they're foroked. Even more than us after our last big vote.

I wonder if she may lose, as (like UKIP) his followers are more brainwashed passionate.

She won't win because she is a woman. I know we're on our second female PM, but here is not there and America is far more 'traditional' in its way of thinking.

It ain't right, and it ain't fair, but good girls go to Heaven and bad girls go everywhere that's the way it is.

Do you work for the Daily Mail? :P

It was suggested that voting to leave the EU would hail the second coming of Christ. ::)

Latest odds on Betfair,

Clinton 1/5

Trump  5/1.

Considering how close they are supposed to be in the polls those are somewhat surprising odds.

A total of £67,000,000 has been bet on them on Betfair, and they say money talks....(I've heard it say goodbye many times)

 :) :)

Not surprising as odds are a reflection on how money is placed, which is very different to polls. Probably, similar situation to #Brexit odds compared to polls where there were a number of very large bets made in London on remain winning. Where Clinton has more rich establishment support, the odds suggest there are some large bets on her winning.
