Academic research by Ryan Enos and Anthony Fowler indicates that targeted field operations in key swing states boost voter participation by about 7 or 8 percentage points. In a typical election, of course, both sides mount comparable field efforts and the net impact ends up canceling out.

In that audio, Trump discusses a failed attempt to seduce a woman, whose full name is not given in the video.

“I moved on her and I failed. I’ll admit it,” Trump is heard saying. It was unclear when the events he was describing took place. The tape was recorded several months after he married his third wife, Melania.

“Whoa,” another voice said.

“I did try and f--- her. She was married,” Trump says.

Trump continues: “And I moved on her very heavily. In fact, I took her out furniture shopping. She wanted to get some furniture. I said, ‘I’ll show you where they have some nice furniture.’”

“I moved on her like a bitch, but I couldn’t get there. And she was married,” Trump says. “Then all of a sudden I see her, she’s now got the big phony tits and everything. She’s totally changed her look.”

At that point in the audio, Trump and Bush appear to notice Arianne Zucker, the actress who is waiting to escort them into the soap opera set.

“Your girl’s hot as s---, in the purple,” says Bush, who’s now a co-host of NBC’s “Today” show.

“Whoa!” Trump says. “Whoa!”

“I’ve gotta use some tic tacs, just in case I start kissing her,” Trump says.“You know I’m automatically attracted to beautiful -- I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait.”

“And when you’re a star they let you do it,” Trump says. “You can do anything.”

“Whatever you want,” says another voice, apparently Bush’s.

“Grab them by the p---y,” Trump says. “You can do anything.”

For years, she's been saying that the reason why Republicans can't win the Presidency is because their candidates have been too moderate. Maybe she has nothing to live for after Trump.

But this buys into the "Trump is a conservative Republican" which is a mistake. He barely talks about cutting spending on anything, he opposes free trade, is pretty unpersuasive on social issues (that is, he says what he thinks he's supposed to say but the only people buying it are the social conservative grifters like Franklin Graham and James Dobson and their followers) and many conservatives actively and publicly despise Trump.

He's a populist. His political views have more in common with LePen or even Peron.

The interesting question though is whether the conservatives can win back the Alt-Right, Rush Limbaugh types. It's pretty clear Pence is trying to thread that needle. I'm not sure it's possible.
