    You found me out I am madly in love with Trump because I love lard asses and bleach blondes with comb overs . I am not obsessed with Trump but of course as an extremist you see only in black-and-white. We were talking about Trump and it seems like you are the one who is more obsessed with him because he isn’t even your leader. I fear for my country
    You said that you don’t defend sexual predators and yet you are defending Donald Trump who bragged about grabbing women against their will. No the men I know in their 60s do not brag about that. Do you lie about those things? Maybe when you were a teenager you did. Are you a teenager? You are using the boys will be boys argument and that doesn’t work with me.Over 20 women have said that he did that to them but yet you are defending Trump so don’t tell me that it is just “locker room talk” he is a man who is taking advantage of women and if you think grabbing crotches is just fun go ahead. I wonder how you would feel if some guy was bragging that he grabbed Guy’s crotches because they let him. And I bet you if 20 men came forward you would probably believe it By the way I am a New Yorker and lived there most of my life and men didn’t talk like that ....only low class men and teenagers
    I know you are comparing trump to construction workers but he is the leader of my country. Maybe you should raise the bar a little
    Mueller said very clearly that he did not exonerate trump from obstruction but that he can’t indict a sitting president. He said if he was innocent he would have said so
    It’s funny that you consider a woman who does not like to get her crotch grabb as ultra conservative. That’s me...ultra conservative It’s interesting that the ultra conservative women are more silent about sexual harassment
    I will use your McDonald analogy. If McDonald’s had its customers voting on whether to add horsemeat to their burgers because that’s what they wanted to do, your not voting would be complicit . If you voted you would have some say in the matter.

    I do not feel anything for Trump. I am only having feelings for what is right and the reason I am here, arguing over this is because you are presenting something that is not right.

    See, he didn't though!

    When I was a teenager I was scared to death of girls because I probably had some sort of anxiety and/or OCD. I would never think of "grabbing" them and thus never bragged about doing it either. :laughing:

    Again, I do agree with you that it is distasteful to use such language. I also agree that it is highly unsuitable fpr an old man to speak in such manner since it is, indeed, something you would expect only from a pimple-faced teenager.

    This is exactly the rhetorics that were used to justify witch-burning - "But, everybody says she's a witch!"

    Now that one would make me laugh.

    Why do you believe that?

    Well, pardon my pretense and pompousity, but I would not exactly call Trump classy. So, I would say it would be fair to say that Trump - in terms of taste and manners - is rather low class.

    He has spent alot of time around construction workers though. :D

    Mueller found nothing.

    Jesus! You don't feel any shame, do you? That was not at all what I was saying and you know it!

    The fantastic thing with the market is that you vote with your wallet. If McDonald's decided to serve meats I don't like, I would go to Burger King instead. ;)

    PS. There is nothing wrong with horsemeat, you thinking so is just ethnocentric, but I do get it was just serving as an example to make a point. :)

    Well you can keep defending Trump and his sexual harassment. It isn’t enough that he brags at 60 years old that he grabs women’s crutches because he thinks they left him. It isn’t enough 20 women have said that he did that to them. It is obvious you don’t trust women and you believe some dirty old guy who cheated on all his wives. You believe a man who bragged about going into teenage girls. I guess you don’t believe the girls that said they didn’t like it and felt awkward.
    You can be sure that if McDonald’s decided to serve horsemen burger King would follow. If you like horsemeat good for you .If you have the vote and enough people agreed with you then that’s what we would have.

    That is not how it works, no.

    I am a nerd. But, my actual obsession is with political philosophy and not American politics and I find this to be a perfect place to stimulate that interest. :)
