I sincerely hope Tom Arnold has what he claims and he is playing Trumps own game...

A true January surprise.

Tom may be releasing just enough info to the press and Trumps people and Trump
himself to keep their minds unfocused while they choose the final members of his
future cabinet and to throw a mental monkey wrench into the planning of the gala
inauguration celebration.

If played right...releasing tidbits over the next few weeks and then giving
the Trumpsters a grand-slam a day or two before the inauguration, this will
result in the press, twitter and the American public only talking about the
released tapes and not the bigly festivities and the new president elect. It will
be everywhere raining on Trumps parade and inundating social media.

Remember... its the U.S of A reality show now folks.

This will enrage Trump and virtually destroy his hopes of the grandest, hugest,
inauguration in history. And no, he will NOT like this attention.

It would be glorious!!!

So keep fingers and toes crossed folks. This could get fun.

Please discuss.

Everyone who has any shady info or tapes, etc will want a piece of the action. Human (at least now) nature. 15 minutes of fame and maybe a pay check. This could open the flood gates. And if Trump is stupid enough to sue Tom Arnold, who also has a bit of money himself for lawyers ... It opens discovery motions for other tapes from the apprentice, etc.

We shall see.

They will fight over who has the latest dirt and who they can get on the air... whether it is the deniers or the supporters.... s$#t sells!

I hear Calliope music already. The circus is coming to town.

Using every racial and bigoted slur possible but it wouldn't change a damn thing and the M$M will continue giving him and his neo-nazi admin a full pass.

This is not just Trumps presidency that needs to be displayed for the world to see.. it is all possible future Republican administrations that must be weakened.

This would hang over not just his head for years to come, but all who are associated with him.

It would have an effect....with more to come from citizens just like us

right?

They have done that so many times in the past when a rPuke gets caught doing something naughty. It is so transparent, but they can't stop themselves.

but my gut reaction is that he is out of his depth. On the bright side, my gut is often wrong. I never imagined that Rove et al could ever get the drop on Dan Rather.
