before posting here.
Rumor-based, fear-mongering and/or inflammatory statements that damage the quality of the thread will be thumped. Off-topic posts will also be thumped. Repeat offenders may be suspended.
If time spent moderating this thread remains a distraction from moderation of the wiki itself, the thread will need to be locked. We want to avoid that, so please follow the forum rules
when posting here.
In line with the general forum rules, 'gravedancing' is prohibited here. If you're celebrating someone's death or hoping that they die, your post will get thumped. This rule applies regardless of what the person you're discussing has said or done.

Well, apparently he's released a video on Facebook apologizing, but called the footage a distraction.

Trump's "apology" video.
HAHAHAHAHAHA
New Survey coming this weekend!Emails: I wouldn't say that the media hated Clinton for it, rather that they spun it to gain outraged viewers so they could charge more for ad time. Which is less evil than deliberately subconsciously programming folks with someone's political agenda, I guess?
I have disagreed with her a lot, but comparing her to republicans and propagandists of dictatorships is really low. - An idiotI hope he doesn't get asked about it, really. Given that's he's actually apologizing for it- or at least trying to- he might end up saying something simple and apologetic in response. This is the sort of scandal that works best when you let it speak for itself.
But I wouldn't bet on it not coming up.

Anyone who knows Trump and with any shred of decency will realize that yes, they do reflect who he is because he hasn't changed at all.
I second this.
As someone who suffered seizures (unintentionally and unknowingly self-inflicted), I think that trying to inflict seizures onto another should be considered assault, if it isn't already.
Reminds me of reading about a game that caused seizures in people. The guy who made the game made it that way to get revenge on people who gave his previous games bad reviews.

Can this get any better?

Yeah CNN has him giving a proper apology now, "I said, I was wrong, and I apologise". Let's see how long before he takes it back.
