Friday Fun Link – An Exchange I Never Thought I’d Hear on CNN

This is exponentially the craziest election I’ve ever seen.

People are observing that instead of an “October Surprise”, Donald Trump appears to have an “October Advent Calendar” with a shocking new revelation or error every single day.

Today’s video of him making crude comments about cheating on his wife, an actress he’s about to meet, and how his “star power” allows him to grab women by their genitalia makes me think (but knowing I’ve been wrong on this many times before) that nothing else crazier could happen.

I also feel obligated to note that the flip side of being a strong supporter of freedom of speech (which I am) is that you are also not immune from possible repercussions from exercising that right.  And with the supporters who are withdrawing their endorsement, calling for Trump to drop out of the race, or other non-supporters dropping further bombshells, Trump is definitely facing a massive backlash for what he said.

At any rate, MetaFilter continues to be my refuge during this election so I’d encourage anyone interested in following developments to check out their latest election thread.
