Is the media, public making too big of a deal of what Trump said over ten years ago?

SW-User
I don't think so...if we were talking about a 40 year old that got drunk and spouted off at the mouth when he was in his late 20's I'd say that's one thing. But 11 years ago he was a 59 year old married man. He hasn't had any coming of age over the last decade.

And I know the most popular retort is to bring up Hillary's "alleged" involvement in dealing with Bill's affairs. And I think that's a legitimate argument that shouldn't be ignored. If anyone is in possession of a tape showing her wrongdoing in this matter it would probably be a good idea to go ahead and release it since early voting is underway.

That is the major difference that Trump's camp doesn't seem to understand or want to admit to understanding. The knocks they talk about on Hillary are all "alleged" knocks while the knocks on Trump are supported by audio/video/live footage of the words coming directly from his mouth.

Chris: Whether or not there was any criminal wrongdoing by Slick Willy is outside our realm of knowing. My gut tells me the man is a total dirtbag but that's only based off allegations. Anybody can allege somebody of doing something. And plenty of innocent people take the fall along with the guilty. When we don't know the facts...we look to words and actions to help us define or further shape our opinions.

Oh okay.....well if you were also insinuating an OJ type scoff to Bill Clinton not being convicted....part of me was agreeing with you on that lol.

Yes, the Liberal media makes a bigger deal of some stupid crap he said than they they do of Hillary attacking women that Bill raped! Also the media pretty much ignored the FBI saying the refugees can't be vetted. The media also should be bringing up the rape problems that Europe has with the refugees!

Is there footage/tape of the Hillary attacks? If there were, I'm sure that the media would be running that past us ad nauseam as well. Was Bill charged with/convicted of rape? I missed that if he was.

Well, if you look at the timing of it, it's clearly been released in an effort to destabilise him at a crucial time. And also at the time the media would get most traction from it.

However, do we really think Donald Trump has entirely changed his attitudes between the ages of 60 and 70? I can't see that he has. Willing to be convinced, but I've seen nothing yet that would convince me.

Some say Bill Clinton was a good president, even though he fooled around or abused women. My point how does what Trump said effect how he leads?

Yet, Hillary aquitted 2 known rapests in the late 70's of a 12 year old girl...
[c=#BF0080]Yeah, I think so.. it was 11 yrs ago for pete's sake.[/c]

Meh. He's still the same guy that was on that bus.

I think, probably yes. But then he's making a huge deal about what Hillary allegedly said 25 years ago, so it seems like he's invited this onto his own head.
True dat! Plus what is coming from Trump is new stuff which is why it's "news", all the Bill stuff is old. Now if somebody can come up with new evidence of Hillary talking about grabbing pussy then that will be all over the 24hr news cycles...

@kekobaka: recently there was a tape of Hillary wanting open borders. Also how she says one thing to banks and wall street, but different for the public. Is this being talked about?
@GunSmoke9: LOL send me a link of her saying she wants to "open" the borders. I do agree with you that she is a scumbag and a Wall Street crony but it still better than Hitler I mean Trump...
SW-User
Yes!!!!!! I believe he was just bragging about it too. Just like most men do when they all get together.
SW-User
Absolutely. As a matter of fact I have a Pussy Grabbers of America meeting this afternoon. We're planning for our annual retreat.
SW-User
He did admit to nothing happening on the debate...

It would be big news if Hillary got caught saying it.
No.He still believes it.
GunSmoke9 · 56-60, M
Even if does, so what? How will what he said influence his policies?

Maybe, but then you'd have to let things that happened to someone else 25 years ago slide...and that will never happen.

Someone has raked this stuff up and fed it to the media. More will follow I'm sure.

Where is the media on the leak tapes of Hillary wanting open borders? or her saying roughly one thing to banks, wall street, and something different to the public?
tenente · 100+, M

Hillary wants open borders, Trump wants secure borders. Hillary wants even more Syrian refugees more than Obama brought in. Hillary doesn't see the danger, Trump does. Hillary thinks obamacare is working despite all the bad news about it. Her plan to make it better is spending more money. Trump wants to repeal it. Hillary wants to stack the court with progressives. Trump wants judges that support the constitution.
