If Mort Divine ruled the world

Regardless. I don't think there are women just lying in wait to level "spurious" accusations at political figures they don't agree with. I think believing such is really psychologically suspect.

Probably not. But that's not how it works. You work with someone 20 years ago. Now they think X way and you are a person they don't like, and you have power.

If Hispanics want Florida so bad I say trade it to Mexico or Cuba or something. Nothing worth crying over down there.

People have been desperately trying to link Trump to a rape/harassment beef since 2016, but no you're right women don't ever randomly come out of the woodwork with claims against politicians or famous actors.

 

[Einherjar86]

I'm sorry, I thought we're discussing "spurious" accusations. That's the word Dak used. In the case of Trump, we're not talking about spurious accusations.

No the hooker piss thing was completely legitimate.

 

[Einherjar86]

oh god, that's what you're going to? Give me a break. Who gives a shit if a hooker peed in his mouth?

 

[CiG]

A lot of the left and the media?

 

[Einherjar86]

The media definitely--because wouldn't it be hilarious if there is a tape??? Site visits would fucking soar.

The left, not so much--they're just amused by it. And by the fact that a pee tape is probably more likely to convince republicans to impeach Trump than an actually substantive issue.

 

[CiG]

No it's just that the left don't have any substantive issues to offer up in favour of impeachment so as usual they scrape the bottom of the ideological barrel and come back with pornstars and fake pee tapes.

Right.

Anyway, rape and harassment victims should just shoot their assailants. Bring back Pam Grier feminism.

Trump is fucking prick. I didn't think he would be this much of an asshole, but here we are.

 

[CiG]

Trump is fucking prick.

Trump is a gay?

The best gay...the greatest

PENIS IS YUGE!!!

 

[Dak]

Given the uncertainty surrounding a Trump presidency on the outset, I think he's managed to do very little in any direction. Much better than any possible prognostication on a Hillary presidency.

Bad points: Increased debt/deficit (par for the Presidential course, and not completely under his control).
Good points: Appointed a competent SecDef (directly under control), has not yet expanded/started any new kinetic wars (likely due to the SecDef). Appointed Gorsuch.

TPP though

He won my vote for 2020 when he refused to parrot the MSM dichotomy of fascists vs anti-fascists regarding Charlottesville. Even if he manages no substantial or meaningful political actions, using his seat to promote controversial views and inspire new political support for the right causes is as good as anything.

 

[Dak]

Well the new story out on the Kavanaugh allegations makes it more likely something happened. But therapist notes from ~20 years later though with no corroborating evidence from time proximal to the event is still flimsy, with what we know about memory. Dems holding it until after the circus - to prolong the circus - is about par for the course from both sides of the aisle so the Repub outrage there is kind lol.
