I keep hearing the same false right wing narrative that discussing Trump's sleazy behavior is only a deflection for having to discuss the "real" issues.
When in reality the single biggest issue in this election is he have a candidate who is running that is so weak of character, so insecure, and so easily played that even Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-un are begging us to election him.
As Hillary Clinton demonstrated in both debates the man can be led around on a leash and be forced to have a complete meltdown at the drop of a hat.
It's not a means of avoiding issues, it is the single biggest issue.

How do they reconcile that with Trump inviting Bill Clinton's accusers to the debate and Trump spokesperson's attempts to get the media to publicize comments made by Bill Clinton's accusers ? Are those "real issues"?
The hypocrisy is way too thick there, isn't it?

(7,004 posts)His disrespect of women has been exposed in such an incendiary fashion that no amount of spin can get around it. Women are going to vote against him. The new business on the 19th amendment proves they know it while adding another thick layer of disrespect.
