Now, two years earlier, Kos had an article saying that there was no proof of this--that conservatives "Buy more porn"
They don't "buy" porn--like all conservatives, they want their shit for free. They mooch off of the free sites.

(30,481 posts)It requires no input outside of them being printed and Trump commenting. A trap would require reaction. That is not necessary here.

Her Choice.
Done.

(80,708 posts)Peoples' bodies belong to themselves, and that includes choosing to take their clothes off in front of a camera.
I'm far more bothered by her ripping off Michelle Obama's speech.
John Poet
(2,510 posts)But we shouldn't pick on his.
Being married to him is punishment enough.

(80,708 posts)The GOP platform is the only place where anyone is arguing that consenting adults shouldn't be free to take off their clothes in front of a camera for other consenting adults to look at.
So maybe they'll so some soul searching about their own religious right authoritarian bullshit. Not our problem.

(49,000 posts)So of course it is a Republican house organ (NY Post) that publishes nude photos.
Democrats collectively yawn and don't much bother even opening it.
Warren DeMontague
(80,708 posts)I think the thing that makes me question her judgment is the fact that she married Blowhard McJackass. I could care less about her nude photos.
But OTOH, if it brings more attention to the hypocritical whackadoodlery in the GOP platform, hey, that's fair.

(80,708 posts)I don't think shaming her is cool. Who fucking cares? It's her body. I'm not bothered by nudity and sexuality, are you?

(9,600 posts)It is better to release these photos now instead of letting them hit the southern states in October.
Smart.

If she had been a ditch digger, there would be pictures of her digging ditches.
She was engaged in a lawful and honest occupation.
I have more concerns about people who think there is some traction to be had here against a women who is not running for any office and made her own choice of gainful employment.

(4,404 posts)Seeing the front page, it's almost like they're proud of them.
And from the comments, the only people offended by them appear to be right wingers.
Either way, it's pretty crappy if this influences your opinion of either of them one way or the other. There are so many real reasons to hate that guy.
