The main thrust of the conservative movement of the last 80 years has been this deep resentment to social security and thus all so-called socialized programs. This goes back to FDR. They have been trying to destroy these programs since the 30s and the way they have gone about it the last 30 years is to cut taxes. Then with taxes cut they don't have the money they used to so then they say "we can't afford food stamps and whatnot". Well of course they can't, they just cut taxes. By starving government they hope to one day do away with all the social programs. Right. Beyond that it's also fear of government overreach - paranoia that the government is out to get them (like the "death panels"). Of course they're fine with using the government the way they want to overreach, but don't do it to them or they'll crush it. Opposing and killing things and stifling are the only thing the GOP actually knows how to do. They even hate libraries. Anderson Cooper isn't even a journalist, he's a spoiled rich boy who looked good on TV and giggles a lot. Some guys have all the luck! He didn't come off that way during his documentary with his mom. Although his giggle I can't stand. He has the worst laugh I have ever heard. It is very annoying....LOL

Corey Lewandowski is a piece of work! His defending of the Trump tape is sickening!

ABC was saying that more than likely the undecided voters will stay at home and not vote and thus Trump has no chance of winning. Trump has his voters and Clinton hers and Hillary's base is much more than Trump minus those undecided.

It's like Trash Reality TV Reminds me of Jerry Springer. Didn't Jerry Springer say Hillary belong in the White House, Trump belongs on my show? Did he? Fits perfectly! I think he said it an interview, but he also tweeted it. Well Jerry actually got it right...LOL.

Such a coward. Delaying the inevitable isn't gonna help. It'd do him much better to face the issue head on. We'll still be discussing it once he decides to return. I'm sure he is relieved. He is just as bad as Trump. The excuse about his age is pure bullshit. He was in his mid 30s and not 18. The Today Show is a hot mess! That's why GMA has surpassed them in the ratings! There was no need to get rid of WG.

I think this was obvious he wouldn't appear. I think this has more to do with Today and NBC. The Today Show still hasn't learned where replacing people are concerned. They get rid of Willie Geist and put him on Sunday morning because they dont want to get rid of him afraid he will succeed somewhere and bring in Bush. Now they have egg on their face once again.

I have a feeling it's going to be very ugly. It will probably have more drama than any soap has had in years. I disagree! It can get much worse for Trump tonight. It all depends on what he does. Someone needs to be waiting offstage with one of those tranquilizer dart guns. Just in case. Reminds me of an Incredible Hulk episode where they plug David with tranquilizers only for the Hulk to appear anyways....LOL...much like what Trump will do tonight...implode more! Former Apprentice producer....There are far more worse tapes out there Cruz is complaining on why the tapes of Trump werent released sooner. Such an idiot for endorsing him....LOL
