Nope. If you pay attention you'd find he actually didn't

We hold - well, we are supposed to hold - those with the ultimate in executive power to a higher standard than 4 common thugs who will spend the next many decades locked up.

Actually, Streep addressed the entire power imbalance thing in her speech.

But, of course, this didn't make Meryl "weep." What a fool she is

Donald Trump's 'impression' of a disabled reporter may have been his 'default' put down | Daily Mail Online

But, of course, leftist media and celebrities won't acknowledge this fact as it goes against their narrative against Trump.
Nope. Continue to deny, anyone with working ears & eyes knows that he did.

As Ann Coulter put it, it was just a "standard retard". Making it all good in the minds of the Trumpista.

I also don't remember her using her "star power" to talk about this one:

She doesn't feel bad. Why should she?

Trump used his platform as a fading reality star to question Obama's birth certificate.

And?

Trump was talking about the women who wouldnt object. Most stars have learned which are the groupies. Are you really so naive that you don't believe that there are groupies who want to be the sexual targets of famous people.

Paula Jones sued for sexual harassment. Are you saying harassment occurs with consent?

Well there are a couple reasons actually. First of all, the comment I replied to made me chuckle. I thought it worthy of a response.

Secondly, isn't the main purpose of forums such as this for people to post and/or read comments featuring a broad range of opinions on the topic from different points of view ?

I thought so anyway :-)

If some would prefer an echo chamber, great, but I love to be challenged. Helps me figure out why I think the way I do. Sometimes I reinforces my current thoughts, sometimes it pushes me to re-evaluate my own opinion on a subject.

LOL at Kellyanne Conway today.

Basically ~ why do you believe your eyes when Trump is telling you that you didn't see what you saw?
