Women accuse Trump of sexual aggression The New York Times and other news outlets have interviewed several women describing sexual aggression by Donald Trump. The Republican presidential candidate has called the claims "fabricated" and "outright lies," and is promising to go "buck wild" on allegations of womanizing by former President Bill Clinton. Meantime, First Lady Michelle Obama chimed in at rally for Hillary Clinton today in New Hampshire, reminding the audience, "This isn't about politics. This is about basic human decency. It's about right and wrong. And we cannot ignore this or expose our children to this for another minute, let alone four years." Amy Sullivan, who once worked in Democratic Party politics, is now senior editor at Yahoo News , has more on the allegations.

But the bottom line is Russia's effort to influence American democracy. Do the President and his aides care enough to take action before voters go back to the polls?
