LaceyLou Posted Thursday at 02:48 PM Posted Thursday at 02:48 PM 15 hours ago, Mr.TaterSalad said: I've often been skeptical off all the times Democratic politicians and activists, media pundits, and others have proclaimed that Trump is politically cooked. People think they always have this smoking gun of evidence or story that will bring Trump down. He has skated on things that would have brought down any other President in our nation's history. This one though, this one s bigger, more sinister, and more repulsive than all the rest. This one deals with the abuse of children and young girls. I think the email and information dumps only get worse from here. I think he is in too much trouble and the water level may rise over his head and finally sink him. I hear you, and I'm at the point where I don't bother with any 'news' that claims Drumpf or any politician is done. I'm less sure that the abuse of girls will bring anybody down-I've been burned a few too many times by comments joking that 'at least they're going for the right gender, ha ha ha' and a general dismissal of girls being sexually abused. In fact I've heard girls as young as 6 as 'asking for it.' The only time some people care is if a girl gets pregnant as a result of the abuse, and then of course she must be compelled to carry that pregnancy to term. Once she delivers, she's ignored again at best or demonized at worst. I only hope I'm proven wrong this time. 1 Quote

As we learned in Watergate, it's not the crime, it's the cover-up Another thing to note here is that, grains of salt taken with any email from Epstein notwithstanding, criminals don't lie when they talk about being criminals. They lie when they say they're not criminals. Quote

chasfh Posted Thursday at 03:17 PM Posted Thursday at 03:17 PM 1 hour ago, Motown Bombers said: There are still going to be people who will dive on a live grenade for Trump. The question is, does this weaken Trump enough where some republicans start to distance themselves from him? Trump got 99 people who'll dive on a live grenade for him and a bitch ain't one. Quote

Who else in the party was yammering on about this topic to the same length? Quote

mtutiger Posted Thursday at 03:41 PM Posted Thursday at 03:41 PM Again, GWB was considered radioactive at the end of his term, yet his actual approval rating was still around 33%... It's not a strength to have just your base when you lose practically everyone else. Quote

Motown Bombers Posted Thursday at 03:52 PM Posted Thursday at 03:52 PM I would argue Trump’s base is shrinking. Is MTG still the base? Quote

And while I was reading the article attendant to it, I came across another new one that's probably more accurate for our commander in chief: "hebephile." Quote

How about we describe him more accurately: Statutory RAPIST Donald J. Trump That works for me. The accuracy, I mean. Quote

That includes the Christian fundamentalists. Quote

In other words, not a surprise at all. And a lot of the women in MAGA already feel this way, and I'm sure most of the rest will fall in line soon. Sometimes women are their own worst enemies. 1 Quote
oblong Posted Thursday at 05:55 PM Posted Thursday at 05:55 PM Republicans - 15 is 'barely legal'.. which to our uneducated friends means that Ms. Kelly is saying that it's ok, despite her claims that it's disgusting. Quote
