Donald Trump Raises Specter of Hillary Clinton Impeachment TIME
Republicans now want to govern by impeachment, when a Democrat is in the Oval Office. How authoritarian is that!!!! Our established presidential voting process elects a Democrat and a totally gerrymandered by Republicans House of Representatives will impeach her or him. These are extraordinary promises.
Consider that Donald Trump didn't only promise to impeach Hillary Clinton in her first year in office, while referencing the impeachment of Bill Clinton. Rudy Giuliani backed him up and said that Congress was afraid to impeach President Obama, when they had plenty of reason to do so. ~ Anne
“If Hillary Clinton were to be elected, it would create an unprecedented and protracted constitutional crisis,” Trump said Wednesday in Miami, wearing a white Make America Great Again hat and open shirt collar in the balmy weather. “Haven’t we just been through a lot with the Clintons? Remember when [Bill Clinton] was impeached for lying?… Didn’t we just go through this?”
Trump surrogate Rudy Giuliani made a similar comment at an event in Iowa Wednesday. “I think that if [Hillary] Clinton should get elected, I guarantee you, in one year she’ll be impeached,” the former New York mayor said. “One year. And indicted. It’s just going to happen.”

Why Hillary Clinton Is the Only Choice to Keep America Great TIME
There is one part of Trump that is indisputably real: his ego. He is personal freedom gone off the rails, a peculiarly American disease. When I think of Trump as a businessman, I think of my father, also a businessman, who would sooner forgo a family vacation than stiff a contractor. When I think of Trump as a celebrity, I think of my daughter forcing me to watch an episode of Jersey Shore some years ago because “you can’t believe how awful they are.” Trump doesn’t live in the same universe as Harry Truman. He belongs to the same universe as Snooki. And his supporters know it: They take vengeful pleasure in his profound lack of seriousness. They protest complexity. Why can’t we take Mosul in three days? Why can’t we have manufacturing jobs and cheap goods at Walmart at the same time? Why can’t we just have immigrants from Europe?
Trump, then, is about all that has gone wrong in our society, and nothing of what has gone right. He is about putting his name on buildings he doesn’t own, about not paying his taxes, about a charitable foundation that spends its money on self-aggrandizement, about beauty pageants where he can invade dressing rooms and ogle nude teenagers. He has even debased the notion of luxury, with his gilt parody of the good life. He does not read. He doesn’t have the patience to be briefed–or, worse, to discern between reality and crazy conspiracy theories, between propaganda and truth. His acceptance of Russia’s attacks on our electoral system is unprecedented and outrageous. He upends stability because he doesn’t know enough to value it. Those who would put Clinton’s failings in the same league as Trump’s depravities are delusional.
President Obama Calls Out a Sexist Double Standard for Hillary Clinton: 'We're Just Not Used to Ambitious Women
In Columbus, Ohio, on Tuesday, the president had a truth serum moment with supporters of the Democratic presidential nominee, “Hillary Clinton is consistently treated differently than just about any other candidate I see out there.”
“You know, there’s a reason why we haven’t had a woman president before,” Obama continued. “We have to ask ourselves, as men — because I hope my daughters are going to be able to achieve anything they want to achieve, and I know that my wife is not just my equal but my superior.”
“I want every man out there who’s voting to kind of look inside yourself and ask yourself, if you’re having problems with this stuff, how much of it is that we’re just not used to it? So that, like, when a guy is ambitious and out in the public arena and working hard, well, that’s okay, but when a woman suddenly does it suddenly you’re all like, ‘Well, why is she doing that?’ ”
We're so accustomed to hearing men deny this possibility, it's almost hard to believe our ears.
Libertarian VP candidate Bill Weld 'vouches' for Clinton Christian Science Monitor
In an interview on Rachel Maddow Tuesday night, Libertarian vice presidential candidate Bill Weld expressed strong support for Hillary Clinton. The former governor of Massachusetts openly disagreed with FBI director James Comey's public announcement regarding a new investigation of Huma Abedin's emails found on her estranged husband's laptop.
"I'm here vouching for Mrs. Clinton, and I think it's high time somebody did," Weld said in the interview. "I've known her for 40 years. I've worked with her. I know her well, professionally," Weld told Ms. Maddow. "I know her well personally. I know her to be a person of high moral character, a reliable person and an honest person, however so much Mr. Trump may rant and rave to the contrary."

Apocalypse Be Damned: Susan Sarandon Endorses Jill Stein for President New York Magazine
On the question of "Bernie or bust?" it appears at least one famous ardent Sanders supporter has opted for the latter. Susan Sarandon endorsed Green Party candidate Jill Stein for president Monday, penning an open letter on Stein's site. In it, she explains that she has been waiting for Clinton's stance on issues important to her — including foreign intervention, pot legalization, fracking, offshore drilling, the Dakota Access Pipeline, climate change, and Israel — to change, but has been disappointed. "It's clear a third party is necessary and viable at this time. And this is the first step in accomplishing this end," Sarandon writes. "Fear of Donald Trump is not enough for me to support Clinton, with her record of corruption. Now that Trump is self-destructing, I feel even those in swing states have the opportunity to vote their conscience."
Hillary Clinton Has Slight Edge Over Donald Trump in New Poll TIME
