Online Journalists Launch An Onslaught Against Donald Trump (nytimes.com)

An anonymous Slashdot reader writes: Online journalists at Buzzfeed are publicizing two controversial videos featuring Donald Trump. First the site "filed court motions seeking the release" of Trump's under-oath testimony in a June trial, in which the real estate mogul "says he planned his caustic remarks on immigration delivered during the launch of his presidential bid," bragging that they'd "led to my nomination in a major party in the country." And Buzzfeed is also publicizing a video clip from the 2000 softcore porn movie Playboy Video Centerfold: Bernaola Twins, in which Trump makes a cameo appearance. Playboy has even said that years earlier Trump actually pressured his second wife to pose for Playboy. ("Trump himself was on the phone negotiating the fee," remembered a top Playboy editor. "He wanted her to do the nude layout. She didn't.")

But his biggest problem may be the mainstream media. According to the New York Times, Trump "declared a $916 million loss on his 1995 income tax returns, a tax deduction so substantial it could have allowed him to legally avoid paying any federal income taxes for up to 18 years..."

    Nobody is going to care about these petty attacks from the media.

    They can't stump the Trump.

    Lol, Buzz Feed.

      Ah, no. Pretending that Clinton is not warmonger is dangerous. I can't believe I agree with a AC.

      Clinton was a shyster lawyer, a carpetbagger senator, and a Secretary of State with the ability to make every situation she oversaw crumble into failure. Not to mention, for a healthcare program that went nowhere, her husband put her in charge of it with no authority to actually do anything but make speeches.

      So, I still don't see what experience Hillary Clinton has over Donald Trump to qualify her for the Oval Office.

      Don't worry, it's not your fault - it's just that you are mentally retarded.

      Perhaps you're less intelligent than you thought. Really, the rampant down-voting on this story tells us how scared shitless leftists are about having no viable argument against Trump causing them to pull out all the stops to get stop the debate from happening at all. It'll save you money on toilet paper, I guess.

      Well said. That's a nice condensed overview of the state of regressive liberal ideology. This 'state of being' that is being pushed by Progressives/Democrats has made me realize that these people don't have good intentions. In fact, it has, with great horror, made me totally indifferent and repulsed that they would find this oxymoron behavior something to strive for or even acceptable. In layman's terms, these people are f*cking nuts!

      We get it. You're a mind-numbingly oblivious Hillary supporter. No matter what illegal activity she is found doing, you will back her forever. Because that other guy is so bad.

      But you can tone back the typical liberal hatred of all people who don't agree with every idea you have. You aren't really accomplishing anything except to show how deep that hatred and bigotry are among the left.

    Hillary is a nutjob with terrible judgement. You look at her foreign policy, everything she voted for, and pushed for, and you're left wondering why liberals ever nominated her. There hasn't been a war she didn't like, she has no moral core, she's never given a shit about the working class or any minority group, and she doesn't even try to hide her corruption. Everything she has worked for her entire career has been for the benefit of the wealthy elites. She's a prostitute plain and simple. And now she is warmongering on about Russia, the next big new enemy. The entire MIC is pushing for a return of the cold war, and we're running out of money.

    We can't have someone like Hillary leading the country, this current path is unsustainable. Hillary is a return of the Bush years, and if you doubt this for even a second you're only fooling yourself.

    Trump's a businessman. He's hated by the political establishment, he's been called racist, sexist, a fake, liar, cheat, everything in the book they can throw at him, and none of it sticks because that's not who he is. He's built his own company from the ground up and worked for everything he owns. He's proud of the company he created, and proud of who he is because he's an honest man. He has good honest self pride, the type of leader that used to be taken for granted.

    I'm really starting to I fear for this country if Trump is not elected. You can already see the left already starting to push up against the 1st and 2nd amendments. They're testing their strength for now, but once Hillary gets to choose her nominees to the supreme court it's all over. I honestly don't know what will happen if Hillary tries to go after people's guns. Will people fight back, will we tear ourselves apart. What happens when they start jailing people that speak their minds for "hate speech"?

    All I know is that a country is only as strong as the people itself, and if a corporate whore like Hillary takes the reigns, it's over, there's no denying it. People have been fooled by politicians before, but no one is fooled by Hillary. Everything is wrong about her, you can see it in her laugh, the way she carries herself, the way the entire corporate media covers for her. It's bad news if she gets in power.

    Thank you for taking the time to read this, and God bless.
