How the hell do you close your eyes and drift off to sleep at night knowing that you’re subjecting children to torture? Do some people lack a conscience, in the way that others are born without a foot, or missing a nose, or without certain cognitive skills? ....................................rhetorical questions.

But that’s just it- you knew your dad was a POS. Trump, for all his faults, probably never mistreated his kids in a conventional sense, other than being just distant enough that they always craved more attention.

Correct! Nine year olds simply do not understand the consequences to their actions. Even if it was “deliberate,” he wouldn’t have understood the full implications of what it means to strangle someone to death.

Yes, but there was always the question of whether or not a parent killed her, or molested and her, or killed her accidentally and made it look like a sexual assault. My point is that I don’t believe we can point the blame at a nine year old child.

It’s excruciatingly difficult for some people not to idolize and idealize their parents, even into adulthood. I also get the sense that Trump’s children didn’t exactly get quality emotional attention and support from their father when they were young. Most likely they’re still looking for his approval.

She has a very smart, politically aware mom, so it makes sense that she’s in the tank for Hills. Credit to Giuliani for at least not fucking up his daughter’s values.

I agree 100%. I remember that case very, very well. The horrendously vacuous parents dressed this little girl up like a Barbie doll and had her performing in beauty pageants when she was practically a toddler. Burke was only 9 years old when his sister died. It must have been terribly traumatic for him to be…

However, using this argument, members of the mob would never, ever have stood trial. For most of these guys, it took years and years to build cases. During this time, they were labeled in the press as mobsters, tainting the jury pool. So, while I do understand the point, I think Cosby should still be tried.

I suppose a guy who’s only a step or two above Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahlmer still deserves due process. But damn, Cosby’s so narcissistic he puts Trump to shame.

Weld isn’t actually libertarian, but a socially liberal Republican. He was actually a decent governor of Massachusetts.

Is anyone here old enough to remember this song? Back when the San Fernando Valley really WAS white?

Here’s your answer:

And it’s a bit ironic too, isn’t it. Because call her corrupt, or dishonest, or mercenary, but Clinton is actually pretty damned tough, and smart, and sane. Meaning, even if you believe what her detractors say about her, so what??? She’ll compromise with Republicans, keep the economy running, not try to stifle…

Yes, I think the poster’s being just a wee bit sarcastic. Kim Kardashian runs a business like Paris Hilton runs a business. There would simply be no business if Kim’s dad hadn’t defended O.J. Simpson and her mom hadn’t married one of the most famous Olympic athletes of all time.

This apparently has the handwriting of a gang of French jewel thieves called the Pink Panthers (based on the 60's and 70's movies). They’ve done this before and gotten away with a ton of dough. Most likely they have links to other mafia around Europe.

It happens all the time (ALL the time) in Mexico, Honduras, Colombia, Venezuela, South Africa, Brazil. Usually because the police are involved.

Two? Five? Who’s counting!

Most likely she’s telling the truth in this case.

Different era, different candidate.

Which is why they should have been wearing body cameras. I’m a bit surprised that, several years after the Ferguson incident, the St. Louis Police Department still hasn’t gotten their act together in this very, very simple respect.
