    So that should matter? Franken should resign. Moore should resign. Trump should resign.

    And yall especially bigtexxx and ipman should stop being hypocrits.

    He had a pattern of being a lifetime creep well before he even nutted the idea of becoming a GOP politician.

    From him being in the Howard Stern shown discussing his daughter in a sexual manner to women from beauty pageants claiming he always walks in on them while dressing. His ex-wives have accused him of rape. He's admitted on tape he tries to cheat on his wives. He's admitted on tape to being overconfident in grabbing women's genitalia before asking.

    He lived a long life trying to express a Playboy lifestyle.

    The dude would be the first person I would believe committed sexual assault if a woman accused him of it.

    No pattern... LOL.

    Someone you can legitimately claim has absolutely no pattern of sexual mistreatment of women is Obama. That person is what 'no pattern' looks like. No Trump. Come back to me when Trump married and loves one woman his entire life in both an intellectual and sexual manner. Trump sees women as sexual objects. That's why he has trophy wives.

    So all divorced men are sexual harassers? There was no talk of Trump and harassment in his 40 years of tabloid media coverage

    Edit: if all those claims were true he would be one of the biggest sexual deviants and that wouldn't make sense seeing as it really has never been an issue till the campaign

    He's been known as a grabby womanizer who only purses trophy wives since the 80s

    What damn plane of existence have you lived in the past few decades?

    You need to separate your disdain for the guy when looking at these issues


    There are plenty jerks. They are no more criminals than nice guys

    You need to stop being so naive. He's verbally admitted to it. His ex-wives have accused him of it. Beauty pageant contenstents accuse him. Business associates accuse him.

    Stop being so naive.

    Many women don't speak out until they see their abuser about to take prominent positions of power and realize they must speak up. It's highly likely Bill Clinton committed sexual harassment for instance, but it is certain Trump has committed sexual assault.

    Huh? He has a long and disturbing public history of treating women like objects.

    Can you seriously not see the difference between trump the private citizen vs. trump the President of the United States? It's easy to hide trump the private citizen from kids. How do you explain to your children that you can treat people like that and still become the (puppet to the) most powerful person in the world?

    The 13 year old dropped the claim. Ivana says she didn't want her claim to be looked at as a criminal situation and.

    The beauty pageant contestants claimed he walked in on them while dressing and other contestants claim it didn't happen so whatever.

    Trump can admit to doing things that you want people to resign for and it still doesn’t matter. So ridiculous.

    Trump derangement syndrome is real, but there’s a failure to diagnosis it on the right side.

    Polling suggests 4 out of 5 registered Republicans still approve of Trump.

    That's on top of the people here who claim they didn't vote for him.

    I believe if he walked in.on them dressing it wasn't purposely. Seriously. It's something blown way out of proportion. I understand he put himself in a bad light with the Stern show but it's the Stern show.

    He says stupid things trying to be outrageous but I think a lot of it clearly isn't serious

    You are a normal citizen. No one is asking you to have the decision making skills that the President of the United States needs to have.

    Do YOU, an average citizen, know it's morally wrong to walk in women's dressing rooms when there are women in them?

    He says he didn't. No need to back and forth on each comment.

    I said if he did, it wasn't on purpose so why would you ask that.

    I didn't say if he did it was okay.

    Why would it not be on purpose?

    Why is it impossible for you to imagine a man like Trump being a creep around women?

    Because I don't let personal feelings cloud judgement.

    I'm not a fan of Trump or his personality. You are the one judging from a dislike already established

    What if it was established by the history of what he has said, the allegations of many women around him along with his history of pushing to chase trophy wives and always being involved in Beauty parents? He's never had a relationship with a women that didn't go beyond physical attraction. He's exactly the type of man that would objectify women.

    That's like saying I don't like Bernie Weinstein because of his past deeds. The disklike was established based in individual merit. Donald Trump has been a famous scumbag bag for 3 decades. There are discrimination. I about his scumbag ways made in the god damn 90s far before he even nutted the idea of being a GOP politician.

    You are asking the impossible to suspend common sense.
