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."
