Trump DARES the Clintons and the press to unveil more explicit audio
A tip for Trump:
As in the first two debates, I noticed Bill and Chelsea sitting in the front row.
At the next debate, if I were Trump, I would point to them and ask Killary…I see Bill and Chelsea made their third appearance. Just wondering where Chelsea’s father-in-law Ed Mezvinsky is? How come we never see that guy?
I bet 95% of the voting public are unaware of this story and you can bet your ass the MSM will never report it.
Don't believe it.

Donald Trump dared the Hillary Clinton campaign and the national media on Monday to unveil more and more tapes showing him saying 'inappropriate' things, saying he will continue to turn the attacks on their heads.
Facing Friday's revelation of a 2005 recording in which he denigrated women, 'I said to myself, wait a minute!' he said in a Pennsylvania high school gymnasium.
'Bill Clinton sexually assaulted innocent women, and Hillary Clinton attacked those women viciously.
'If they want to release more tapes with inappropriate things, we'll continue talking about Bill and Hillary Clinton doing inappropriate things.'

'I'm not proud of everything I've done in life,' Trump conceded. 'Is anybody here proud of every single element?'
But Bill Clinton 'was a predator,' he claimed, rattling off a list of women who have lodged sexual assault or harassment claims against him.
And Hillary, he said, has systematically attacked his accusers.
'For decades Hillary Clinton has been deeply familiar with her husband's predatory behavior,' Trump said.
'And instead of trying to stop it ... she put more women in harm's way.'
Citing her claim of being an advocate for women's rights, he called the Democratic candidate 'a total hypocrite' who has 'destroyed and hurt so many lives.'
He cited the case of Kathy Shelton, one of four anti-Clinton women his campaign featured Sunday in St. Louis.
Clinton 'was defending a man who raped a 12-year-old little girl,' he said, recounting Shelton's case form more than 40 years ago. 'Desperate to win her case, Hillary Clinton blamed the 12-year-old girl!'
'Hillary ruined that little girl's life, destroyed her life, then years later she was recorded laughing about it.'
'There's nothing Hillary Clinton won't do or say to obtain power,' he said, 'and it's about time people started to understand that.'

Rose Tennent, a conservative Pittsburgh talk radio host who emceed for Trump's pre-show lineup of local dignitaries, underscored the line between Trump's words and the Clintons' actions – both past and yet to come.
'What he has said in the past,' she told Trump's supporters, talking about Friday's audiotape, 'does not at all compare with what she will do in the future.'
Tennent laughed off the idea that female voters will run screaming from Trump because of his past vulgar language.
'We're not going to come down with the vapors,' she quipped. 'We are women, hear us roar.'
Trump also claimed Monday that Hillary Clinton 'lied' her way through Sunday's debate, ripping his Democratic opponent's performance at their second head-to-head smackdown.

'During the course of 90 minutes, she was exposed. Her failures were exposed,' Trump told a nearly packed house in the hardscrabble Pittsburgh suburb of Ambridge.
'And she lied. All she did was lie last night!'
Trump claimed he ran circles around Clinton, winning 'unanimous decisions' from most TV news panels afterward – although he said some were 'pained' to admit he had won.
'We had a lot of fun, and I would say that Hillary is highly overrated,' he declared.
Trump singled out two 'lies' in particular.
'She lied,' he said, when she claimed she was no longer in office when President Barack Obama drew a 'line in the sand' warning Syria's dictator not to deploy chemical weapons against insurgents and civilians.
'She was there as Secretary of State with the so-called line in the sand,' Trump said Sunday.
'No I wasn't. I was gone,' she said.
Obama delivered his famous 'red line' speech six months before Clinton left her position as secretary of state.
He also castigated Clinton for insisting she didn't delete State Department emails after Congress issued a subpoena for them.

The subpoena, issued on March 4 of last year, came between three and four weeks of when investigations show the deletions were carried out.
During the Sunday night debate, Trump challenged Clinton: 'You get a subpoena, and after getting the subpoena you delete 33,000 e-mails!'
Clinton responded: 'Everything he just said is absolutely false, but I’m not surprised.'
'That was another lie!' Trump boomed on Monday.
Trump mused in Pennsylvania that the National Security Agency might already have her deleted emails. 'I don't think they looked too hard,' he said.
He also mentioned news reports that 'two boxes of her emails are missing'.
The now-common chant of 'Lock her up! Lock her up!' was deafening as Trump reiterated Sunday's pledge to reopen the investigation into Clinton's classified email if he wins the White House.
'Very sad,' Trump said. 'Special prosecutor, here we come! I will appoint a special prosecutor. Because we can't allow this to happen to our country.'

Clinton called for 'open trade and open borders' in private, paid speeches
The MSM made it their crusade to make sure all of America knows about Trump's sexual escapades but Killary's 'wet dream' of open borders will get little play.
Are you more concerned about Trump's sex life ...or having a country with no borders?

WikiLeaks appears to reveal Clinton's Wall Street speeches
Hillary Clinton told bankers behind closed doors that she favored "open trade and open borders" and said Wall Street executives were best-positioned to help reform the U.S. financial sector, according to transcripts of her private, paid speeches leaked Friday.
The leaks were the result of another email hacking intended to influence the presidential election.
Excerpts of the speeches given in the years before her 2016 presidential campaign included some blunt and unguarded remarks to her private audiences, which collectively had paid her at least $26.1 million in speaking fees. Clinton had refused to release transcripts of the speeches, despite repeated calls to do so by her primary opponent, Sen. Bernie Sanders.
The excerpts were included in emails exchanged among her political staff, including Campaign Chairman John Podesta, whose email account was hacked. The WikiLeaks organization posted what it said were thousands of Podesta's emails. It wasn't immediately clear who had hacked Podesta's emails, though the breach appeared to cover years of messages, some sent as recently as last month.
Among the emails was a compilation of excerpts from Clinton's paid speeches in 2013 and 2014. It appeared campaign staff had read all Clinton's speeches and identified passages that could be potentially problematic for the candidate if they were to become public.
Typical Clinton-- the trend is your friend:
Wow...what a f------ turn of events!
Isn't it worse now than in 1995? Were we pressing 1 for English?
One excerpt put Clinton squarely in the free-trade camp, a position she has retreated on significantly during the 2016 election. In a talk to a Brazilian bank in 2013, she said her "dream" is "a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders" and asked her audience to think of what doubling American trade with Latin America "would mean for everybody in this room."
Donald Trump, the Republican nominee, has made opposition to trade deals a cornerstone of his campaign.
Podesta posted a series of tweets Friday night, calling the disclosures a Russian hack and raising questions about whether some of the documents could have been altered.
"I'm not happy about being hacked by the Russians in their quest to throw the election to Donald Trump," Podesta wrote. "Don't have time to figure out which docs are real and which are faked."
Podesta's comments came just hours after U.S. officials publicly accused the Russian government of directing cyberattacks on political organizations and American citizens in an attempt to interfere with U.S. elections.
The joint statement from the office of the Director of National Intelligence and the Homeland Security Department cited disclosures of "alleged hacked emails" on sites like DCLeaks.com and WikiLeaks as being "consistent with the methods and motivations of Russian-directed efforts."
The statement didn't refer by name to the affected political institutions, but federal authorities are investigating cyberattacks on the computer systems of the Democratic National Committee and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.
Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus said in a statement, "It's not hard to see why she fought so hard to keep her transcripts of speeches to Wall Street banks paying her millions of dollars secret."
The emails released Friday included exchanges between Podesta and other Clinton insiders, including campaign manager Robby Mook. Most were routine, including drafts of Clinton speeches, suggested talking points for campaign surrogates and suggested tweets to be sent out from Clinton's account.
The excerpts include quotes from an October 2013 speech at an event sponsored by Goldman Sachs, in which Clinton conceded that presidential candidates need the financial backing of Wall Street to mount a competitive national campaign.
"Running for office in our country takes a lot of money, and candidates have to go out and raise it," Clinton said. "New York is probably the leading site for contributions for fundraising for candidates on both sides of the aisle, and it's also our economic center. And there are a lot of people here who should ask some tough questions before handing over campaign contributions to people who were really playing chicken with our whole economy."
In the same speech, Clinton was also deferential to the New York finance industry, exhorting wealthy donors to use their political clout for patriotic rather than personal benefit. She also spoke of the need to include Wall Street perspectives in financial reform.
"The people that know the industry better than anybody are the people who work in the industry," Clinton said.
In an April 2013 speech to the National Multifamily Housing Council, Clinton said politicians must balance "both a public and a private position" while making deals. Clinton gave an example from the movie "Lincoln," and the deal-making that went into passage of the 13th Amendment, a process she compared to sausage-making.
"It is unsavory, and it always has been that way, but we usually end up where we need to be," Clinton said. "But if everybody's watching, you know, all of the back room discussions and the deals, you know, then people get a little nervous to say the least. So, you need both a public and a private position."
Clinton's speeches often touched on technology and privacy. In an April 2014 speech to JPMorgan, she denounced National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden for going abroad, saying, "if he really cared about raising some of these issues and stayed right here in the United States, there's a lot of whistleblower protections."
But she told her audience that her time in the public eye left her sympathetic to privacy concerns.
"As somebody who has had my privacy scrutinized and violated for decades, I'm all for privacy, believe me," she said.
Speaking on international affairs, Clinton's comments were largely in line with her positions as secretary of state, if sometimes more blunt.
"The Saudis have exported more extreme ideology than any other place on Earth over the course of the last 30 years," she told the Jewish United Fund at a 2013 dinner.
The speech transcripts were produced under an agreement Clinton routinely imposed on any organization that hired her to speak. The contracts, such as ones crafted by the Harry Walker Agency, required the organizations to hire, at their own expense, a stenographer who would provide the transcripts to Clinton and not keep copies for themselves.
In some cases, the contracts themselves were obtained by news organizations under public records laws because Clinton was being paid to speak by public universities or colleges.
Let's play 'who lost more money': Trump or Hillary?
On a tip from Ed Kilbane
October 4, 2016
By Jack Hellner
Hillary says she can't understand how anyone in business could ever lose $1 billion in a single year, yet somehow, according to an inspector general's report, the State Department misplaced $6 billion of taxpayer money because of inadequate internal controls. Most of the sum was lost during Hillary's four years.

Hillary's losses cost the taxpayers much more than Trump's. She didn't just lose $1 billion in one year; she lost an average of over $1.5 billion for four straight years.
Do we want someone to be president who has been so careless with public funds – who, according to the FBI, was extremely careless with classified information? The FBI director couldn't be sure that she understood the nation's security laws, and apparently that is the only reason she wasn't charged.
Ben & Jerry’s declare support for Black Lives Matter, calls for ice cream boycott ensue
The Vermont creamy released "Empower Mint," a refreshing mint ice cream with a real political message, this spring.
Ben & Jerry’s has never shied away from weighing in on prominent social and political causes. Now the Vermont-based creamery has officially weighed in one of America’s most contentious movements: Black Lives Matter.
On Thursday, the ice cream maker sent out a Tweet proclaiming solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement.
"Black Lives Matter. Choosing to be silent in the face of such injustice is not an option."
New flavor coming soon.
Chocolate Choke 'A la mode
The Resurrection... summer 2017.
The Tweet, which has been liked over 30,000 times, was accompanied by a lengthy statement on systemic and institutionalized racism and called for others to join their cause by not standing idly by and to engage in meaningful action.
“Systemic and institutionalized racism are the defining civil rights and social justice issues of our time,” says the statement signed by Your Friends at Ben & Jerry’s. “We’ve come to understand that to be silent about the violence and threats to the lives and well-being of Black people is to be complicit in that violence and those threats.”
The statement also specifically references the recent police officer shooting death of an African-American man in Charlotte, and links to a separate landing page on the company's website titled "7 Ways We Know Systemic Racism Is Real."
As soon as the statement was posted, Ben & Jerry’s social media pages were flooded with comments. Many celebrated the company for taking a firm stance on a controversial matter.
But others who claimed to be opposed to the Black Lives Matter cause declared their outrage, and some called for a boycott of the company’s ice cream.
Though many businesses choose to remain neutral when it comes to politics, company founders Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield have a history of weighing on political movements. They have have previously released ice cream flavors supporting marriage equality and raise awareness about climate change. In January, Ben & Jerry’s threw its support behind Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders with a limited-edition flavor called Bernie’s Yearning.
And in April, Cohen and Greenfield were among approximately 300 individuals arrested at the U.S. Capitol as part of protests about the role of money in politics organized by activist group Democracy Awakening.
