Which begs the question: Did he stop this behavior as he got older, or are there more recent victims? I wouldn’t be surprised if there are.

Just because it’s not illegal in the eyes of the law, doesn’t make it right or appropriate (to say nothing of the potential for blackmail). The President is supposed to be a role model.

It’s prudent to keep in mind that every Republican in Congress is on the dole of the NRA, but only a single Democrat out of 240. This problem can be addressed - the better, the fewer Republicans hold office in Congress and at a state level.
I had a look at the 200 largest corporations in the world by market capitalization today. Of the just half a dozen British corporations on that list, all but one were in finance. The one that actually produced real goods clocked in at #115 or so. It’s not like Britain has much of an industry and manufacturing backbone…
Your point being?
The Second Amendment is, mainly, the result of the states - particularly the southern states - wanting to maintain citizen’s militias to deal with their vast slave populations (and the occasional native American threat). The close quarters, home defense aspect that retroactively gets attributed to the founding fathers…
I’m saying that the easiest and most powerful way for white people to fight white supremacy requires no input or rule book from African Americans at all: Policing white supremacists. Keeping them down, keeping them in check. The burden to check a community should fall within the community, not to anyone outside of the…
2005 Putin wasn’t 2017 Putin either. Xi is already the most powerful chairman since Mao, and China is a lot more powerful today than it was under Mao. That should scare the shit of everyone in the Western world - China alone outnumbers all of us combined by 500 million people. If we don’t get our shit together, we’ll…
There’s no country with as much accumulated wealth as the United States. Pretty much every other industrialized nation suffered huge wipeouts of capital, public infrastructure and men of working-age due to WWI and WWII. The US didn’t. There’s been a steady accumulation of wealth since the Mayflower.
Delaware is one of the largest tax havens in the world.
That’s correct of course, I’m stating that we should form our opinion on a case by case basis, or else people will eventually jump under the blanket of #metoo and co-opt it to settle scores. On a case by case basis, most of these men who stand accused already look guilty as hell, so that approach doesn’t take anything…
Even the Antichrist has standards.
Anywhere abroad, 1946: “German? No, Ick been from Schwitzerland.”
I’m not feeling sorry for her. She enabled him, publicly shared in his race-baiting birtherism against the Obamas - she could have divorced him and come clean about him during the entire campaign. She’s one of the reasons why he is President. She’s one of the reasons why vulnerable people face deportation to hellholes…
As a remarkable TV moment, this was both awesome and sad:
If you think that, had the Democrats forced Bill Clinton out 20 years ago, the Republicans would now be saying [...] Any moral ground they once held
It’s obvious. Drinking destroys the small capillaries - the bulbous red nose is a telltale.
The EU has given the UK 2 weeks to come up with a plan on the divorce bill or they’ve threatened to push back the trade talks even further
As has been repeated at nauseum: There are plenty of guns in Canada, Germany, Switzerland and a number of other Western nations that share an avid hunting and marksman culture with the United States. Why are there no mass shootings in these countries every other week, but only once every decade? Among other things,…
