Trump has a new girlfriend?

https://www.yahoo.com/style/17-theories-facts-hope-hicks-051311592.html

He's a known serial adulterer. Melania is never with him. So he's cheating on her. He probably has an open marriage.

What he does with his personal life and marriage is not our business IMO, but the Christian Right will say nothing if this is shown to be true and he'll get their full support because the Christian Right are simply racist hypocrites.

never has any problem with any of its own being married multiple times or openly cheating on their wives.

The two best examples are Newt Gingrich and John McCain.

and marry the mistress. After all, they whine, why shouldn't a rich man trade them in when they start to look shabby?

- where it was a sin to dance or for women to wear pants:
"But a little make-up is OK because if the barn needs paintin', then paint it."

And this was cheered by congregants both male and female alike.


And when that paint stops working yes, it's time to trade in.


Hell, I think men got extra credit for cheating and then coming to the church to beg forgiveness. They love few things more than a repentant sinner.

When did he have an affair? And, as much as I dislike him a lot of the time, I'm not sure that I would call him part of the Christian Right. No disagreement about Newt Gingrich and a whole mess of Republicans, though.

2. I read this the other day about Ms. Hicks
Mon Aug 7, 2017, 02:20 PM
Aug 2017
"The White House is a real dump," Sports Illustrated quoted President Trump as saying this week — words that, in addition to sparking outrage and offense, were vehemently denied by the commander in chief. "I love the White House, one of the most beautiful buildings (homes) I have ever seen," Trump tweeted Wednesday. "But Fake News said I called it a dump — TOTALLY UNTRUE."

Golf, though, is challenging Trump on his claim. Sports Illustrated's Alan Shipnuck, who first reported the quote, told his colleague, Michael Bamberger, on the Golf podcast that Trump lambasted the White House "in front of eight or nine" different witnesses:

[White House spokeswoman Hope Hicks] tried the same line on me, "[That quote is] a lie and needs to be retracted." I explained to her: It's not a lie. The president said this in front of eight or nine members and staffers at [Trump] Bedminster. It was his first visit to the club after he had been residing in the White House. It was a moment of candor. Someone who was a part of that conversation relayed it to me. I found this person to be an extremely credible source on any number of topics.

The week of the U.S. Women's Open [in July], I heard the same story told by two or three different other sources. This is certainly a moment that has already passed into legend at Trump Bedminster. It might be inconvenient for her boss and she might wish he didn't say it, but it's not a lie.

So Trump's new girlfriend was calling to defend her man?

It took me a while to figure out what was wrong with "used to be a former model". I almost posted to ask you what was wrong with the statement. Then I started to read the article and realized what was wrong with the statement. The author could have just stated Hicks was a former model. There was no need to write "used to be" with "former model".

The Righteous Right doesn't hesitate to condemn the 49-year-old Bill Clinton for taking advantage of the 22-year-old Monica Lewinsky, an age difference of 27 years.

If the current story is true, with the 71-year-old Trump getting down with the 28-year-old Hicks, well, that's a spread of 43 years.


Where is the outrage? Where is the $40M fishing expedition? Where's the impeachment?

Mon Aug 7, 2017, 05:10 PM

Some people (both male and female) enjoy being next to power. Henry Kissinger supposedly said, "Power is the great aphrodisiac". If this woman is actually sleeping with Donald Trump it is likely that she is doing so because of the power he currently has and the power he had as a result of being the head/face of a seemingly major corporation.

"AND he's been known to call her, "Hopie." "

Not sure how many have read Piers Anthony Bio of a Space Tyrant, but Hope Hubris was President of "Jupiter/USA" and his daughter worked for him. Her name was "Hopie". Maybe there is a closer relationship than girlfriend here and he is telling everyone with the nickname. As much as Ivanka "turns him on", I would not put sleeping with her out of the picture daughter or not.

Let's not claim that Thump is stepping out on Melania until there's SOLID evidence.

And if a just Heaven deals out some long-overdue karma to the Republican Party, part of that justice will include a stained blue dress.

His wives have all been blond. I had no idea he was willing to notice a brunette. I am shocked. SHOCKED I tell you!

In truth, I'm mostly shocked at the idea that any woman would let him anywhere near her. There is not enough booze or pills to ever make that shit possible.
