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.

Jared Kushner may have started out a kind young man, but he's always been spoiled and quick-tempered, and myopic about loyalty, which led him to his current doomed hero worship of his father-in-law. He has channeled his anger and frustration about his own father's prosecution and public shaming into some kind of weird do-over with Trump. He has abandoned his family's proud tradition of liberalism to fiercely defend Trump and tells anyone who doesn't care for the hateful rhetoric that they just don't know "the real America."

 

He also used his purchase of the Observer to settle petty family scores. It's all in this profile of him.

 

Meanwhile: Pre-debate, Trump is doing this.

 

 

 

God, it's like watching the Budd Dwyer tape.

 

 

 

Basically, everyone in media is horrified and disgusted.

This is less a presidential election race than it has become a T&A circus. It's sick. Right now, the world is either laughing at us or disgusted with us. And I can't blame them.

 

How low can this go? I shudder to think.

 

I just pray about a month from now that memories of Trump will fade quickly, he'll lose, and go crawl back into the sewer.

 

Really wish I could move to Canada if this a-s-s-h-o-l-e somehow defies odds and wins.

Our Leader of the Opposition Bill Shorten (he's a member of the Labor party- the left/progressive party here) has again come out against Trump: 

Heaps of other Labor MP members- as well as some of the Australian Greens MPs and a few Liberal Party MPs (the conservatives here)- have come out against him but Shorten has been the highest ranking and most steadfast in his condemnation and has been actively trying to make sure American expats are aware of how and when to vote and for rallying support for Democrats Abroad. Our PM Turnbull says he isn't going to support Trump but doesn't want to criticise him either but a lot of people on the chat shows are saying that that might change after this weekend and how tonight and the next few days go.

 

Spoke too soon- Malcolm Turnbull is on the telly condemning Trump and saying him and his comments are loathsome, vile, and dangerous. Even Barnaby Joyce (Deputy PM and member of National Party of Australia- another conservative party) having a go at him and saying America deserves better and dragging him.

 

Don't know if you guys can see this in America, but Derryn Hinch and our own version of Trump, Pauling Hansen, get in a row over Trump-

This is already a snuff film. Only babbling about talking points in regards to pussygate and Cooper cuts him off. He seems drugged, listless.

 

Trump snaps at Martha Raddatz as she tells him to have to go to viewer questions and he can't just ramble about Hillary. "Sounds fair."

    • Do we believe that Jabot is at the level of Estee Lauder?? I am on board with Jabot deciding to expand but the way it was handled was ridiculous. Jabot just decided and bingo, that was that. Not months of negotiations and decisions about how it would fit into the Jabot portfolio. And then no follow through. Josh thinks he's serving business stories by characters sitting around and discussing mergers, takeovers and job switching. Now we have Audra setting up her own company -Vibrator or something. Well, why not? You don't need staff, office space or even products.
    • He a dirty dog! Those are his kids and he hurt everyone. At this point he needed to just come clean. I can't believe I was lusting over this man! I hope they aren't quick to forgive.
    • The way I took it is that he did not want to confirm or deny anything until he talked to Nicole first. He was very calculated with the wording he used with Martin and Kat
    • I still see Alfonso Ribeiro as Carlton when Martin gets angry.
    • Not that I want to defend Y&R's writers, but it's not as absurd as you'd think and I believe they plucked it from reality (and then bungled it). The Estee Lauder Companies purchased Tom Ford's brand several years ago and I am willing to bet that's how Jabot came to buy Marchetti.
    • Loved the episode today. looking forward to the fallout. Nubian-Sheila looked fantastic, but I wish the writers would cut back on her overuse of figurative language. I loved the "fix yo mind ministries" line though. The background music during her fantasy confrontation with Nicole was epic.
    • Nothing makes sense on this show. I wish there was a garbage can emoji. That sums up 90% of the show right now.
    • You're welcome

      Jane Wyman return episode was head-to-head w/ Cheers season 8 finale. Falcon Crest broadcast syndication began Fall 1986, which overlapped w/ Oprah going national. AFAIK cable broadcasts were Lifetime and Soapnet. I have no memory of cable broadcasts on TBS, TNT, TNN, E!, FX.
    • After today’s rushed and abrupt exit for Summer I immediately realized that Josh & Co. were very blindsided by AL’s decision to leave.  Not the first time this has happened to JG either; see MM & HK’s exits in 2021, MM’s exit in 2022, and of course TSJ’s exit last year. Obviously JG and our executive in charge of nothing Steve Kent don’t have a good handle on casting disruptions. And Mariah having an offscreen affair is [!@#$%^&*] ridiculous!! Meanwhile Tessa’s blonde hair is overkill with the number of blondes on the show already. I said the same thing 3 years ago…of course it was utterly ridiculous everyone was mad at Sally for getting Summer he dream job (don’t ask lol) but there was so much the show could have done without bringing on the Marchetti angle.
