He's such a fucking asshole. I'm starting to have a visceral reaction when I find out that people I know actually support him and think he's a GOOD choice for president.
When you make the comments that he makes with the ease that he makes them and with the regularity that he makes them - that is WHO HE IS. I actually saw an article today about his relationship w/ Howard Stern and how he loved going on the show in the 90's when he needed publicity. I could see, on that show, that maybe he said some stupid things to try and be "funny" for the show.
But this is in his day to day life, when he's making speeches, when he's trying to APPEAL to people. That's not entertainment. That's called being a sexist asshole.
It doesn't surprise me one bit. And it only reaffirms why when I find out people are voting for him, I'm done with them. There's no amount of equivocation that can show that I have anything at all worthy in common with a person who would support this piece of garbage.
Ah. Yes. A variation on the "I'm just joking. Why can't you take a joke?" defense. Classic.
That's what my dad always says after he makes some mean or rude comment. :/ So gross. Both my parents are on the fence about suppporting Trunp bc they HATE Hillary. Whenever I bring up things like this article their response is always "Bu Hillary..." ugh

This is the thing -I feel like w/ ANYONE who supports Trump, they can't actually articulate why. It's ALWAYS "But Hillary". No, not "but Hillary". WHY TRUMP??? Tell me WHY TRUMP where Hillary's name doesn't come up!

This and "Don't be so sensitive." Rage. No, YOU stop being an asshole. Another one in the same category - "Don't you have a sense of humor?" Again, no, not to dickish, racist, whatever other -ist comment you just made, no I don't.

Whatever he says doesn't seem to matter anyway. The people who support him at this point would follow him over a cliff (and I wish they fucking all would), and he and Pence will just deny it when asked anyway. I hate this election.
"This prick is asking for someone here to bring him to task Somebody give me some dirt on this vacuous mass so we can at last unmask him I'll pull the trigger on it, someone load the gun and cock it While we were all watching, he got Washington in his pocket."

It's gaslighting, plain and simple.
I used to date a guy a long time ago who would tease me to the point of tears, and then make fun of me for being too sensitive. God, it sounds even worse when written out. I should have ruined that guy's life when I had the chance!
