It doesn't really matter whether from an evangelical mindset or family values, they defend their guys because politics is a team sport. Check the mind at the door and hoist the banner.
This.

People are nuts.

Or Kevin Spacey, or Brett Rattner...or Anthony Weiner.


In fact, lately it has been a wave of marxists/Hollywood creepos getting exposed.

Who is Charlie Weinstein, what does Louis CK have to do with anything political, and what makes Bill Clinton a "pervert"?

Trump is a Marxist? He's certainly a Hollywood creepo who likes to "grab em in the p----" but this is the first time I've heard someone call him a Marxist.

Nope I have given you my reasons for my opinion and why I find the accusations credible. Your justification for your opinions lacked any detail other than you claim "to know the truth"

I think that that is beside the point for these women. The people (because there are young men saying "Me, too") coming out and telling their stories are doing so to unburden themselves. Not to affect political races but to effect social change. Our society needs to change. We need to respect each other. And that means people in power need to respect people who don't have power. The abuse needs to stop. In many ways, that's part of Trump's message, isn't it? Draining the swamp is about getting rid of the people who take advantage of the little guy, who abuse their power. Women and some men are telling their stories about how a man who had power over them took advantage of them. And letting the chips fall where they may.
At least you don't deny that big guys at the top of NBC/MSNBC had the Trump tape far in advance and waited until the moment when they could absolutely destroy him.


Thankfully it backfired on them.

Default GOP Senate Campaign Arm Has Severed its connections with Roy Moore

Trying to protect the national brand, I would guess, but this being Alabama he’s going to be elected regardless.

National Democrats probably don’t know whether to hope that they can actually pick up a seat in the most unlikely of places, or have Moore elected and have Republicans on defense after every screwball thing he says.
From their perspective, it’s a win either way.

I agree.

We are seeing people who have spent their lives preaching from the moral high ground saying that they don't care about the sexually assault of a young girl when it conflicts with their politics.

We are seeing a whole section of the Republican Party opening admitting that jesus, law , order , goodness don't matter if it means a "democrat" might take a seat.


It is most definitely disturbing to see these folks willing to publicly state sexually assualt is NOT a disqualifer for public office. At times like this i wish there really was a god, because these folks don't meet the standard and would not stand a snowball's chance in hell ... (where they would be)

It has become obvious that the real price of ending the fairness act has been that a whole section of this nation is conflating religion and politics in a way that is not unlike the Taliban.

To be clear i am not claiming they want to stone and murder people. Some Republicans are now openly justifying supporting sex offenders for some "greater good".

What does Louis C.K. have to do with politics?

What makes Bill Clinton a pervert? Rape and lip-biting for starters.
