On edit: it's the 1pm PST hour but this will surely go on all day.
They are replaying comment after comment after comment. Rosie, Hillary, Megyn, pussy grabbing, Miss USA, and on and on.
I hope they and CNN both push the GOP as hard as they can to line up against this pig.
The media made him, the media can jolly well bring him down (with a big fat apology to Hillary along with it).

(19,851 posts)...his "apology" was for the grab em by the p remarks. There was nothing remorseful about it, jut a bunch of empty words. And lest you forget that during one of the debates, he was asked if there was ever anything he had to apologize for. a 70-yr old stood on that stage and said they had never did anything in life that warranted an apology - that speak volumes

(5,914 posts)I don't recall that he even made an attempt.
Trump knows what an apology is. He knows it is a sign of WEAKNESS. To apologize to someone is to affirm to them that they wield some sort of authority over you and you have violated it.

(9,808 posts)He was visibly angry to be forced to apologize, he spent more time trying to excuse, defend and justify himself than actually saying "I apologize," he sounds not at all remorseful. It was grudging at best, and is an excellent example of
The Narcissist's Prayer:
That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't meant it.
And if I did...
You deserved it.

(7,527 posts)last night about "Eye for an Eye(x10)" vs "Turn the Other Cheek".
He called out the bus comments and essentially "Trump sees a woman and sees blood" unless they are sycophantic (cue HuckSand describing how much of an inspiration 45 is.) "He finds blood disgusting, more disgusting than taking away health benefits..." Showed a picture of Mika at New Years looking completely normal.
It was great.

(34,136 posts)Wallace has hated Trump since the Access Hollywood tapes came out. While she is an unrepentent Republican, watching her go after him is fun. I also appreciate her depth of knowledge of the insiders of the Republican Party.

Amaryllis
(9,524 posts)She called on Kellyanne and all the women working for him to take him aside and educate him about how offensive these comments are.
That would require the ability to be educated about such things. The ability to see from another's viewpoint, which narcissists do not possess.

(51,585 posts)Any woman who doesn't already despise him is not a real woman in my opinion and don't deserve to be called one. Other words/terms are more appropriate. I have no respect for them what so ever!
nolabear
(41,960 posts)but don't define "womanhood" and then claim they don't meet your standard. It dilutes our ability to hold an argument and it plays their game.
And I think you're wrong. Some I'd write off too, but I think there are those who believed his lies and thought he'd change some. I know some who are really struggling with him now and I won't insult them.

(41,960 posts)simultaneously. My goal is to draw those people into a conversation as we all watch the ongoing conversation on the program, in much the same way that threads are started around speeches and larger scale events.
If it's not your cup it's not your cup. Of course I suspect you got some actual satisfaction out of clicking and criticizing so all is not lost.

(24,409 posts)Just sayin' Instead, we just got lots of lots of fake news stories about Clinton Foundation and Hillary's e-mail server. It's not like a lot of this information wasn't out already about Trump and how he mocks and harasses people. S**w you MSM!

(82,849 posts)You think if Trump's public history of misogyny had been run on a continuous loop during the 2016 campaign like CNN ran the Dean Scream (which wasn't really a scream), we would have President Trump now? Does Sarah Huckabee Sanders have any daughters? How does she explain to her daughter that Mommy's Boss is such a pig?

Isn't it nice that Sarah's kids don't have anyone human in their lives modeling behavior? Instead, they're directed to God as their role model. Any misbehavior by her kids then becomes God's fault. Convenient, no?
