Political candidates always make a show of being most respectful of their wifes. Trump not doing that probably triggers some clues hinting at his overall nature.

As shitty as he has been to every demographic, she doesn't strike me as the type who would put up with his shit if he said to other women, the same thing to her behind closed doors.  And as it was stated in that thread, his lead was protocol in any case. Again, if she were running for president not him, she would leave the car first. I think though, she puts up with his mouth because the thought of being first lady is appealing to her.

I think this lady was making something out of nothing, Drumpf has lots you cant nail him on even with women, in this instance I don't think that was what going on. It would be like convicting a cereal robber of murder with no gun or finger prints just to convict them for the robberies. He's a giant douche, but in this case I wouldn't make anything out of it. 

Think about even Bill's affair with Monica. It was wrong, the lying, but the sex was still consensual and the courts had no right to bring up a legal act because of the other allegations of sexual harassment. If Monica was accusing him of that then it would be relevant to the other accusations in a court. 

I don't think you can say this event is related to all the shitty things he's said about women. At worst you might accuse him of being forgetful in this case. I've lost track of time and been late picking up my mom does that make me sexist? Most of the time I am on time. 

I think there is far too much nit picking on imagery. Howard Dean went down in flames because of that shout during his run. And I also think too much is made about Hillary's not being smooth like Obama or JFK. I remember seeing Bush Jr walk into a set of double doors not being able to open them, bumped into them, looked like a complete buffoon. But that one event isn't what made him a bad president, his actions did.

There is tons to blame that asshole for but this is making a mountain out of a molehill.

Exactly what I meant.

There are no stupid reasons NOT to vote for Trump, only stupid reasons TO vote for Trump.

subtle

thank you

Nobody should vote for him, but again, one event isn't his entirety, he has a big enough douche sample rate this one is not worth focusing on precisely because he already has tons of stupid reasons that disqualify him.

But the one thing she saw wasn't even bad

Eye of the beholder, my dear.

I'd also note the damage a Trump administration might cause to the timeline is going to be greatly attenuated by the virtual unanimity of opposition he is going to experience from the rest of the government.

Pope's can't clean up the curia, Soviet Premiers couldn't clean up the politburo, England can't reform the monarchy, Trump isn't going to change much of nothing here either.

Trump isn't going to have much to show for his presidency at all unless he sets up firing squads to ruthlessly terminate the legions and legions and legions of bureaucrats, slackers, administrators, pinheads, embezzlers, dolts, chiefs, goofballs, unionists, czars, department heads, congress critters, criminals, aides, staffers, grunts, sturbs, twerps, dildoes, and cretins who are going to unite to oppose everything he wants to change.

Expecting men to walk in a specific location depending on where their wife is and to wait for her to get out of the car or open doors etc....all of the stuff is so sexist. We keep reaching for equality but for some reason we only want it for women?
