    This is a human rights issue. If any one, RW or LW, try to excuse their side or blame the other side with whataboutism, then their comment is only trash.

    You are absolutely wrong because Trump defended Roy Moore in the same way he defended Porter. Trump said that Moore denies that he sexually harassed young women and Trump added that Moore said he was"innocent" just as he claims Porter said he is "innocent".

    OJ Simpson said he was "innocent"....... you believe OJ to be "innocent " just because he, Moore, and Porter say they are "innocent" ?

    And Democrats want a congressional hearing over him saying something factual, logical and something every US citizen should agree with. It’s utter delusion.

    If elected Democrats disagree with what he said they disagree with due process and are dangerous individuals with a lot of power.

    The problem is no matter what Trump says he is instantly accused of being guilty of something. The reactions to this tweet highlight the insanity and irony of the world the democrats have brought down upon us.

    It is a fact that a mans life is instantly tarnished or ruined at the mere accusation of abuse. It’s a sad state of affairs. And the Liberal defense seems to be, “it’s about time...”. Because all men should be punished for the extreme few.

    I said if she has a weapon it changes the dynamics, duh. I am speaking of a woman who comes at you with her bare hands, I have stated that numerous times.

    So do you think the photos that were posted were doctored up or do you think it was her boyfriend that did that to her.

    So are women equal or not? Me
    Personally it would be difficult to go past restraint if that situation ever occurred. But If the only way to stop her was to disable her and she hit me first, I wouldn’t have any other choice. Sadly I’d be the guilty one unless there’s video. And even then public opinion cares not for facts. Sad. My attitude has been changed these past few years. I’d never hit a woman before but now if they think they’re empowered, wed just have to see how powerful they think they are if they attacked me. I hope I’m never in such a situation.

    Well I can't speak for any other man, but if my wife were to strike me with her hand I can't see myself physically attacking her claiming that since she slapped or punched me she is now a man. Most men could just grab her to subdue her not knock her out.

    I'll just repost this and leave it here, since I think some people may have missed it the first time around.

    We're discussing two Trump aides -- Porter and Sorensen. Porter's girlfriend's photograph seems pretty incriminating, but what about Sorenson?

    Most of all, I still object to the idea that a mere allegation can destroy someone's career with no benefit of the doubt, no due process, and no "innocent until proven guilty".

    Beating up women is inexcusable. But destroying someone's career with a mere accusation should be inexcusable as well. We shouldn't condone this merely because it feeds into our political bias. This shouldn't even be a partisan issue at all.

    They resigned because there is no recovery from an accusation. We live in a bizarre time when being accused is the same thing as being found guilty and even if your innocence is later proven, people still see you as being guilty.

    It makes me feel like vomiting to say this but I agree with Trump on this. These men’s lives have been destroyed and nothing has been proven. There hasn’t even been an investigation. It’s just plain wrong for a mere accusation to hold that much power.

    I agree, if it is proven that the woman lied she should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

    I agree and I hope other women come forward and communicate this distinction.

    bringing up Roy Moore actually substantiates Trump's cry for due process. even the evidence brought forth was proven sketchy, and her wasn't allowed to defend himself.

    if someone told you they were innocent, and through your relationship with them, you had no reason to doubt them, why would you believe strangers in a he said/ she said?

    the Roy Moore incident set precedent for future mudslinging.

    I think that should all be worked out in a back and forth system where each party has a chance to state their case. I believe that is whay Trump is aptly describing as due process. I'll state one opinion, you all really support mob rule.

    If these allegations are true, why was he not charged? Or was he? There seems to be nothing tangible. Allegations mean nothing to me anymore. They are a dime a dozen this day and age. Especially when financial gain is a strong possibility and the environment is under mob rule mentality. There is due process for a reason, and we don't void it out based on someone's race, party afilliation or celebrity status.

    Funny how the mob rule changes when the victim or alleged perp changes.

    Let see in one case we have two ex-wives with the same type of story of abuse back up both by police reports and a picture of of them with a black eye.

    Sure no reason to ask the man to leaved.
