Mr. Trump was a businessman and a playboy, he exaggerates a lot, as he pointed out in his book “The Art of The Deal”.
In other words, a womanizer and a pathological liar.
And yet you take him at his word.
Yeah, I do.
Look, Mr. Trump was not running for pope.
So… no, then.
Never said he was.
You said you take hm at his word and that he exaggerates.
See the contradiction?
It won’t matter as long as ckalli’s gut tells him to bellyfeel the truthiness.
Coouldn’t have put it better myself:D.
Also, let me repeat a point I made earlier:
Look at Bill Clinton. The man was a serial philanderer, with the most notorious case being Monica Lewinsky.
Yet, liberal Democratic voters were able to forgive his shortcomings because they felt he pulled through on the economy; the most notable display of this was the 1998 midterm elections. As you know, the President’s party usually loses seats in midterm elections, but the Republicans, instead of offering a clear alternative agenda to the American people, instead decided to make the election about Clinton, incessantly hounding him for his immorality in having an affair, going on and on about his moral character, in some cases hypocritically I will admit (Newt Gingrich was cheating on his wife during the impeachment era in the 1998).
Clinton’s supporters didn’t like the heavy-handed moralizing by the Republicans, who then proceeded to actually gain zero net seats in the Senate and lose net seats in the House—the first time since 1934 that the non-presidential party failed to gain congressional seats in a mid-term election. It was a backlash against voters by what they saw as gratuitous, disingenuous moralizing on the part of Clinton’s opponents.
Now, this doesn’t mean that Clinton’s supporters in the 1998 midterm approved of all of his personal, suboptimal conduct, or that they approved of a national figure cheating on his wife and then lying to the public about it. They just thought his positives outweighed his negatives.
It was the same for me when I voted for Trump, although I was saddened by his inappropriate and sexually aggressive comments on the tape, I realized they were over a decade old, and he quickly apologized for it, and that they were bigger issues facing this country then a 10-year-old tape between Hollywood playboys.
That doesn’t mean I support sexual assault. Don’t try to make it seem like I do.
Why do you believe Bill Clinton’s accusers and not Trump’s?
my gut
So you actually believe that he often doesn’t tell the truth but you take him at his word that he’s now telling the truth that he wasn’t telling the truth back then.
No one has accused Hillary Clinton of sexual assault, plagiarist. That your gut ignored Trump’s own bragging of sexual assault, and assigned blame for allegations about Hillary’s husband to her, reflects poorly on you. As does your unrepentant plagiarism, of course.
I don’t recall ever saying anyone accused Hillary of assault.
There have, however, been credible sexual assault allegations against Hillary’s hubby, the female accusers who Hillary decided to viciously attack (http://www.dailywire.com/news/9585/9-times-hillary-clinton-threatened-smeared-or-amanda-prestigiacomo).
Credible like that broadsheet you linked to earlier? :dubious: :rolleyes:
And Trump didn’t attack his accusers?
Is there a link to this apology? I’m having trouble remembering it.
I find that to be highly probable.
You can find it here.
Thanks. I am genuinely overwhelmed and I missed it at the time.
CAUSE IT’S STILL NOT OK AND NOT ENOUGH.
