David Waldman brings us another highly informative, precisely pronounced KITM for Friday. Now you don’t need to read, hear or even think about Donald Trump until Monday morning! Just grab your gun and stare at a door this weekend.

But first, follow Greg Dworkin deep down into the most fascinating niches of the latest polling. For instance, values voters are finally giving up on Trump, as church goers shift from Trump to Clinton. The rise in anti-Semitism should scare away any remaining humanity. Big Donors urge the RNC to cut ties to Donald. 

To create a landslide, first the losing party has to lose support. Donald Trump is making that happen for mainstream Republicans as well as a lot of the base, which is being compacted into a tiny, hard, angry diamond. Is Donald Trump destroying our democracy? Or has that always been the Gop goal? Or is America just losing it’s f**king mind?  

Josie Duffy Rice takes a break from Daily Kos’ law beat to give her perspective on some things that aren’t Donald Trump. US prison incarceration takes the harshest toll from its citizens, both in raw numbers and per capita. What can we do about it? How do we address the issue of those convicted of violent offenses? David and Josie review California Prop. 62 and 66. Josie examines the actions around the police union contract negotiations in Portland. Social media companies secretly provided data to law enforcement surveillance programs during protests in Ferguson and Baltimore. The death of Ken Thompson is a blow to the cause of progressive prosecutorial reform.

OK, back to Donald Trump. Did you know he may have lied about donating to 9/11 charities?

How would you like to be Donald Trump today? If so, contact Donald, he can probably find a way to work something out.

Usually KITM is your source for the news, before it hits the “news”, but David Waldman Just can’t keep up with all of the new Trump accusations popping up!

Good thing Greg Dworkin is available to lend a hand, although he first wants to make sure no one is going to get sued. (Don’t worry) Check out the testimony of women caught too close to Donald’s fingers, tongue, leer, in the Abbreviated Pundit Roundup, then move on to Twitter where there will be more shortly. Are you still at the non-acceptance stage on the Donald Trump assault news? Or you might even be at the Kellyanne Conway or uncontrollable rage monster stage. If so here is an acceptance guide.

“The Tape” trebucheted the Clinton campaign last weekend. There’s lots of polls at APR. Listen to Greg to learn how to savor the fine nuances! For polling and psychology, Pennsylvania is a state to watch, as Hillary dominates the Philly suburbs.

As Trump accusations flood in, Trump troops fight on, and lose, in skirmishes. Donald Trump invests in 10 year olds with potential, checks in on the progress of 15 year olds, until he finds the right moment to strike. Donald has a certain preference, and certain preferences.  Assaulting a journalist was a big mistake.

Why would Donald Trump invest in beauty pageants and modeling agencies? Yes, that answer seems simple, but once you look beneath the obvious Trumpian layer of wanton, remorseless sleaze it all just becomes more dirty, sordid, cruel, misogynistic, and illegal. Today is the day David Waldman starts to peel away layers of that very rotten onion.

The bulk of this KITM is devoted to David’s annotated recitation of “We All Knew About the Trafficking.” The Untold Story of Trump Model Management (Part 1) by SwedishJewfish. This is a great introduction to the author’s other thoughts and narratives, as well the beginning of our deep dive into Trump’s golden cesspool to discover these Trumpettes: Chester the Molester, John Casablancas, Jeffrey Epstein, Eliot Spitzer, Roger Stone, and their many, many victims.

Coming tomorrow, the story David Waldman has been promoting his entire life! Not really, but he did spend some time recording a KITM to play tomorrow while he is busy. Find out all about Trump’s Model Management Madness! (Part 1) Wednesday!

Greg Dworkin is interrupted by his doorbell, until he lets her outside to hunt chipmunks and deer. Now if we can only figure out what that dump truck beep is all about...

Is Donald Trump Big League Toast? Yep. But let’s not say that out loud until the post debate polls are out at the end of the week. Trump has vanquished his rivals for the GOP's soul. The Gop is taking all this locker room and lock her up talk as well as could be expected. Alex Jones has decided Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are literally demons from hell. 

Meanwhile, it is pretty nice on the other side of the aisle, where they are making room for 10 to 20 house seats. And another historical first endorsement for Hillary Clinton, this time from the Cuban-American Latin Builders Association.

David examines the Newsweek article linking Donald and Vladmir, again. Is Trump a puppet, just a patsy?

Was Trump Billy Bush-Whacked?

On a personal note, about midway through last night’s debate I inhaled an actual Stink Bug, so unlike you, I only suffered through about 70 minutes of Donald Trump.

David Waldman was not so lucky. Tune into today’s special Columbus Day KITM to experience David’s torture as he is forced to verbalize all that happened this weekend!

Greg Dworkin calls in to help tackle the debate that wasn’t a debate. Greg sees pundits missing the point again. Still, the judges did go with Clinton, and for-real polls after the debate also went for Hillary. John Harwood discusses the debate with Stan Greenberg. David Frum reminisces about Clinton 90's experience and how it plays today. Donald did what he was hired to do: shake the Alt-Right fist at Hillary, Bill and Barack, but failed at his biggest stunt, so some still aren’t pleased. Did Donald do well enough to stop all the rats from jumping? Yes, Trump did well enough to keep the rats on the ship as it sinks, although a Gop chairman became unsure of his vote when Trump was so bad he made his dog throw up. As for the rest of us, Donald Trump is pretty scary, as he promises to rip up the foundations of liberal democracy and manipulate any genitalia because he can. Remember when Donald Trump took Billy Bush back to “a beautiful place”, but really couldn’t find it? The Trump video is having a hard time taking Donald lower than the basement he’s already in, but it is boosting Hillary.

So, Donald Trump was the big whiner of the debate. That crap used to get him somewhere. David looks into how Trump lobbied for tax breaks to abuse, then later complain about and run against.

It was a dark and stormy night.  

Last night, Armando and Vanilla Ice were in Florida riding out Hurricane Mathew. Today, David Waldman transmits KITM from an undisclosed kitchen near Washington DC, as deplorables think their deplorable thoughts, which is probably worse than not thinking thoughts at all. Republicans seek shelter way deep inside their bubble.

Greg Dworkin brings the sunshine: The polls are looking strong for Hillary Clinton, especially with Latinos, and the unemployment rate is the lowest in over a decade. Ah, but there are clouds: Antisemitism is the in-thing with the cool Trumpsters. Women remain scary and motivating to Trump voters as well. Somali immigrants give them jitters too. Katrina Pierson sums it all up for those that didn’t hear the dog-whistles. Michael Moore is so scared of Trump that he seems to have fallen in love. Bill O’Reilly did not sense enough Asian fear and hate, and sent Jessie Watters to Chinatown. New York responded. A man shot and killed his wife, and blames it on his fear of Black Lives Matter.

Breitbart chuckleheads attempt to smear Hillary as “combative” for trying to protect bunnies. Everyone loves bunnies.

How will Republicans reconcile and renew after Trump goes away? Or will they just cheerfully pretend he never happened? Is that a bazooka in Paul Ryan’s pocket?

Maybe Sunday’s town hall debate will turn it all around. 

You heard it here first, now read Part One of the untold story of Trump model management (and trafficking).

KITM has another correspondent! John R, JJR1971 to you, reports that Texas schools are still fighting decades-old desegregation orders.

Donald Trump is still running for president! David Waldman’s KITM is 2 hours long and he can only barely keep ahead of this mudslide.  

Mike Pence showed he was good at being unsoiled by Trump mud at the debate. Actually, few saw the VP debate. As a result, the whole concept of Mike Pence smooth talking his way to a win is fading away. Greg Dworkin reveals the strategy Tim Kaine used to win in the real world.

Donald Trump is sinking. Sunday’s debate won’t bail him out, so when do the rats jump ship? Congressional rats are especially interested in this question.

On the other hand, the wind is at Hillary Clinton’s back. Now it is close in Florida, Nevada and even Arizona, and if she can lock down Florida...

Yeah, yeah, the youth know about the election, when is that deadline again?

Donald Trump used this one weird trick, and absolutely no scruples, to turn a 916 million dollar loss into a profit! David looks into Donald’s Art of the Steal, and the several theories on what he was up to, especially this one.

Brian Munroe, also known as Canuck Pundit, becomes KITM’s Canuckospondit with a report on how Trump wife #2 Marla Maples could have done him in.

A Kentucky man and his AR-15 stop the tide of evil clowns. Actually he shot at a woman walking her dog.

David Waldman wants you to say things on KITM. It can be about politics, or the show, or pineapple. (David likes pineapple.) It can be 5 minutes to 25 minutes and range from sycophancy through calumny, he doesn’t care, he just wants audio files, soon!

David really needed some more pineapple last night, so he missed the Vice Presidential Debate. By tomorrow analysts will have untangled what they were saying, where they were looking, etc. and it still won’t matter. It’s Trump vs Clinton on Sunday!

Greg Dworkin felt it was an annoying debate with a moderator that lost control early, but Tim Kaine did one important thing: he showed beyond doubt that Mike Pence cannot defend Donald Trump. Pence’s head shaking will be fact checked to death today. Here are 6 things Trump definitely said, that Pence claimed he did not say. Bears have a rich pedigree in Russian narratives, but Mike Pence had to make up a Russian Bear proverb for the debate. Mike Pence brought Bill Clinton’s statements on Obamacare to the debate. Did Bill Clinton mess up? What did Bill actually say? Donald Trump calls tax avoidance “smart”, most Americans call it “unpatriotic”.

You know that Joan McCarter saw the VP debate. She came to KITM to give further analysis, including how nobody likes it when Mike Pence whips out that Mexican thing. Others treading water, hoping not to get too close to the Trumptanic undertow: Kelly Ayotte thought Trump was absolutely a role model for children, but reconsiders. And, Paul Ryan, a martyr for Trump.

Yesterday David Waldman was out Rosh Hashanah-Na-ing; today he discovers his new 5777 novelty glasses are really hard to see through.

Greg Dworkin promised us an avalanche of post-debate polling, today he delivers.  You will hear “Hillary Leads” so often your head will spin, believe me. As a matter of fact, Hillary has always led. But... what about Ohio?  As the Clinton electorate flees the rustbelt, leaving deploration in its wake, the electoral map shuffles. The service industry expands as manufacturing shrinks, but politicians lag. Young voters have always wanted the third choice.

Vanity Fair looks back at 30 years of observing Trump being Trump. Donald Trump cheated on his taxes at Every. Possible. Level.  This guy knows, because he has seen Trump’s tax returns.

Donald Trump used Trump Foundation funds for his presidential run. The Trump Foundation was used for just about any bill.

David looks into the big money to be had when the crazies get to fleece the insane.

Greg Dworkin calls in with a list of topics and opinions that he hopes are wide ranging enough to get everyone annoyed with him. Pragmatists for Clinton! Maybe Hillary is likable, after all. You can't pay people to like Carly Fiorina, so she doesn't bother. Greg looks at the polls heading into IA and NH: Biden not much of an issue. Bush and Rubio close as Trump drops. Kevin McCarthy doesn't speak well at all, so he may not get the Speaker position. MARS attacks! David and Greg talk about the range of populists and the spectrum of populism in politics, which all share in common a tendency of losing in elections - so far. Guns, Campuses and Madness as it is reported Mom of Oregon shooter bragged about weapons she stockpiled. Now 4chan is threatening violence, putting colleges on alert. Sheriffs demand even more military weapons. And, an 11 year old shoots and kills an 8 year old because she would not show him her puppy. House Republicans, already fighting over the candidates for speaker, majority leader and whip, find themselves fighting over when to even hold the elections.
