He said it, he really fucking said it...

[Puzzler]

... (sorry for my language, but that's my honest reaction)... Trump stating to the US and the World, that he might (or wouldn't) accept the results of the election.

This one hideously reckless statement, overrides everything else in (and about) this debate. As I type, this is making headlines around the World.

The talking heads can debate the debate all night for all I care. It's all moot now. This is probably the most inexcusable, extreme statement EVER made during a national presidential debate.

Yes, I know, there has been bitterness here (and by myself) over voter fraud. But the issue here, is that Trump is talking about the entire election being rigged. The whole shebang. Every state. He won't accept the results of the probable impending Clinton landslide.

Even George W Bush looks like Einstein compared to Trump... as ridiculous as it sounds.

1. he only does what's good for himself and his brand.

Throw his base some red meat and keep them hanging on through the election, loyal listeners. He probably doesn't know how big a deal this is, not knowing much about history or anything except salesmanship.

[Amonester]

3. His brand is going bankrupt

And his election is following suite.

He's doing what's "he thinks" is good for himself, and he is WRONG!

[Frank Cannon]

13. His brand isn't worth shit anymore.

He single-handedly destroyed it.

I've never seen anything like this in my life. Imagine if Papa John shot a commercial where he pulls his pants down and defecates on a pizza crust, then he runs that ad during the Super Bowl. This is what Donald Trump has done to his own brand.

14. or to put it more poetically

The story of Icharus flying too close to the sun.

2. k&r. I am glad to see I'm not the only one who was appalled by that

[Cha]

4. He's only labeling himself as the

whiniest Loser in the world.. his own worst enemy.

Enjoy that petard, drumpf

5. Perfect distraction from nine woman who came forward about Trump's sexual assualts in a week.

So much packed into the debate, but Trump had to be outragous somehow to keep the narrative away from his criminal conduct in relation to women.

This is a non issue because he said he is going to keep everyone in suspense. That means his vote suppression tactics continue. We knew that much already.

Nasty woman is the same as attacking Miss Universe. That is where Trump went into freefall, on women;s issues and on being a mysogynist pig.

Trump gave credibility to the sexual predator persona with his boorish, snide aside, "Such a nasty woman."

6. Even Dan Quayle looks smart compared to this guy. (eom)

[ffr]

9. I remember Dan Quayle. And though he wasn't a friend of mine, Donald, you're no Dan Quayle.

[NurseJackie]

12. Good one!

[brewens]

7. Nothing new really, but at least he said it. It's what the whole birthbagger thing was about.

No way this cuntry could lect wunna them (black) peepel!

They never accepted Obama. Never would have. I'm not sure what Trump expects to get out of all this? I suppose he will find idiots willing to pay him to be Trump and write books about it for some time.

8. The folks on MSNBC (post-debate) were very shaken by this (Maddow, Schmidt, & others)

Makes me think I'm not according it the gravity it deserves.

[obamanut2012]

11. If didn't gasp put loud, and you aren't frigtened he said this

Then yes.

This is very, very scary.

[ailsagirl]

15. Although someone on MSNBC said this morning

that it was ridiculous to think that the entire democratic process hinges on that lunatic-- maybe people are giving him WAY too much power (the ultimate aphrodisiac)
