That was a politically motivated hit job by the media as there has ever been. This was access Hollywood tape, which nbc news found after someone tipped them off. NBC news then...in order to seem not like a hit job and impartial...gave the tape to the Washington Post who gladly ran the story.

I wonder if someone with equally damaging information in the same circumstances would have ever released that info about Obama at all? I wouldn’t think nbc news would have run it and def not wa post.

I think if Obama had a long underlying history of questionable business deals and declaring multiple bankruptcies only to seemingly find new funding whenever he needed it, at some point he'd have said some shit that someone smart enough would've recorded, and then kept for safekeeping until such a time that person realized Obama was becoming a major threat and needed to be knocked down a peg, at which point the tape would've been sold to the media and released.

Was it a hit job? Absolutely. Somebody was trying to damage his campaign, and they succeeded with some Americans. Not enough obviously.

The big q at the end of the day: Even though it was clearly a hit job, does that excuse what Trump said?
