Trump: You know, I’m automatically attracted to beautiful [women] — 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. You can do anything.
Bush: Whatever you want.
Trump: Grab ’em by the p*ssy. You can do anything.


That's our president, the truth teller, the non-sugarcoater, the "nice guy" who you write "is not a mean person," sharing his opinion about women and his belief that he can do whatever the hell he wants with them, that they "let him do it" because "he's a star." Yeah. He's a real prince.
Oh drop it already. If you want a betacuck for POTUS, go ahead and support Garcetti. Good luck with that...

Meaningless locker-room talk. Anyone offended is clearly a person who has never heard this sort of blather. Women who are offended are prudes, pure and simple. Such prudes should listen to how gay men talk about their exploits. They would blow a fuse. Men. are. pigs.

But assuming arguendo his boasts were true, a populace loves a virile ruler.

I think Trump is an oaf and an incompetent president but he's not the bogeyman the Left makes him out to be, nor is he the messiah the Right swears he is. That being said, I'm glad he didn't make an ass out of himself with this tweet. Honestly, I want Trump to be at least somewhat of a decent president. I don't get the people who want him to always fail or screw up, unless we're talking about a certain policy. Like him or not we're probably stuck with him til 2020 and I rather be stuck with him than the stay-poof marshmallow man in the closet.

[quote=brittle_star;50372683]Short of sending us his 'thoughts and prayers,' I haven't seen anything else.

California declares itself a sanctuary state and you expect something else?

I wouldn't want to share the same airspace with you. It's obvious you've got the mindset of a sexual predator.

Both men and women talk like that though. I've heard it from both. It's only gross with Trump because the conversation was recorded and then leaked during the 2016 election for political gain.

My friend is a teacher and was telling me how he had to tell a female student to be quiet recently in class because she was talking to her friends about a black book on guys she had sex with. She was explaining who was more endowed, who had better stamina, etc.

The world isn't a Disney movie...

Point? Missed. Gaslighting? Attained.

The point is these conversations happen all the time by both men and women. Many of these folks on TV who are talking down Trump for his comments have made similar ones in private (though some have been outed lately like Matt Lauer). Not saying what he said was in good taste but a lot of hypocrites trying to take the moral high ground with this.

Like that saying goes, you can point your finger at me but now you have three pointing back at you...

I actually listen to radio namely KFI 640 in Los Angeles and I follow Larry Elder - as well as Jesse Lee Peterson The Official Website of Reverend Jesse Lee Peterson | I also am an avid Twitter user. I know what is going on out there. Blah Blah Blah yep that's it - I am SHEEP and only listen to Fox. (rolling eyes) Nope, unlike most Liberals who listen Only to CNN. You would be better served if you awakened your senses - read up on ALL news out there and LISTENED to different outlets especially to get the truth if you care about the TRUTH.
