Washington, October 8 – The weekend storm that swirls around the Trump Campaign’s implosion has become a spectacular spectator sport. On national news networks anchors caution parents when Trump vulgar comments are about to be broadcast.
We’ve been eagerly awaiting the spin machines of Republican politicians up and down the ticket.
Good Lord – Is Speaker Paul Ryan finally going to pull the plug on his Republican Party presidential nominee? Is the our likeable pal RNC Chairman Reince Priebus really up there in Trump Tower coaching his train wreck candidate on what to say at Sunday’s Debate in St. Louis?
Steve Bannon over at Breitbart.com, his website kept everything under wraps through mid-afternoon of the East Coast news cycle. By COB Saturday he finally cranked out a news story way down the middle of the site’s landing page.
Reporter Matthew Boyle did a cut and paste of Melania Trump’s statement. We wondered if it had been prepared months in advance. Just like those glowing press releases about how wonderful Governor Mike Pence performed in his debate with Tim Kaine – punched up online hours before the debate actually took place.
Reporter Boyle, portrayed Melania as a future First Lady in his opening paragraph.
He says: “The potential future First Lady called on the country to join her in accepting her husband’s apology and supporting his efforts to focus on key issues facing the nation and the world.”
Matthew Boyle goes on to say: “Her acceptance of his apology – which he issued in a video statement late Friday night – and imploring of the country to support him and join her in accepting his apology may eventually put a stop to the political fallout Trump is facing. Many establishment Republicans – most of whom never supported Trump or opposed his candidacy for the presidency from the beginning – have withdrawn their support for him in the wake of the video release.”
“The words my husband used are unacceptable and offensive to me,” Melania Trump says. “This does not represent the man that I know. He has the heart and mind of a leader. I hope people will accept his apology, as I have, and focus on the important issues facing our nation and the world.”

Emergency Replacement Threatens Trump Campaign Crisis
By Kyle Andrew Brown
St. Louis, October 8 – CBS News Coverage of Trump Campaign Crisis following release of video of vulgar comments about Entertainment Tonight host Nancy O’Dell. Anchor Anthony Mason introduced the segment saying: “Donald Trump’s campaign is in crisis on the eve of the next Presidential Debate.”
Political correspondent Major Garrett chimed in:
“Demeaning. Disgusting. Indefensible. Sickening. That is but a small sample of Republican revulsion with Donald Trump. For the first time since the Republican Convention Trump finds himself genuinely isolated. His hold on the nomination less certain than ever.”
“RNC Chairman Reince Priebus was supposed to be at that Wisconsin today with Trump and Speaker Ryan. The idea a big Unity Photograph. Well, unity is the last thing on the Chairman’s mind now. He’s going to spend the day now huddled in New York trying to find a way out of this mess in time for tomorrow night’s debate.”
