Did your vulgarity erase his perceived innuendo? I love how Trump supporters hold random strangers on the internet to a higher standard than the President himself. "Grab 'em by the pussy" = still gets your vote and support. " He is a fucking pig"- handslap for "vulgarity" FUCKING HILARIOUS.

I wonder the same thing about these self labeled Christians advocating for politicians who almost seem proud of their immoral behavior. Is it all about abortion? Are they so against this one thing they're accepting of anything else? flute4peace, I'm tempted to be in that hidey hole with you, the extra tension this President has brought into our lives stinks! But we can't hide. Those of us who strive to treat others with respect and care have got to speak out. I'm also tired of those people hijacking Christianity for their own purposes, it's as bad as Islamic extremists overshadowing the positive beliefs and values of their religion.

Ranks right up there with the conservatives around here who blamed random strangers on the internet for why they couldn't/wouldn't/didn't vote for a Democrat even if their candidate was a deplorable POS.

He certainly isn't statesmanlike, by any stretch of the imagination. I truly agree with your statement.

God help us! You’re STILL seeing vulgarity as the main problem here?!!! Yep—sure as the sun rises you won’t see her calling out the vulgarity of her golden boy. "He" is not my golden boy. He has been inappropriate. Now what?

God help us! You’re STILL seeing vulgarity as the main problem here?!!! No she sees the main problem. What do you (general) want her to say? Like the Trumpers on my Facebook page. They are dead silent now. They know they screwed up but most aren't the kind of people that will admit they made a mistake. But some (like this poster) still wants to handslap, so they will pick something like someone's use of vulgarity. They hope this will draw your attention away from the big problem which is they made a huge mistake voting in an inexperienced idiot to be our president. It's done in abusive relationships a lot. I've seen plenty of times my dad try to do this on my mom but she never let him get away with it. Ok sorry rant over. I wish that they were silent around here. I listened for a few minutes to a local talk radio station today. Callers were saying things like “You can see that he’s for the people. It’s obvious.” 😳 I listened for a few minutes and turned it off. The host is someone I know, and he voted for Obama. Then he lost his mind and went full Trump. I’m so disappointed in him, and it is pathetic to hear these barely coherent callers talk about how Trump understands the people.

He's done it before too. A court just ruled she can't sue for defamation. So the bully in the White House gets to call you a "dummy" who "begged" w/o consequences. America. DT has said this about Romney and multiple OTHER male politicians. How is this any different?

DT has said this about Romney and multiple OTHER male politicians. How is this any different? Because the connotation is different for males than it is for females. When you accuse a woman of "doing anything for the money" the majority of people will equate that to a woman being willing to protitute herself. Eta: I thought I was in a different post and was skimming recent replies. So, my post is obviously not about the defamation case. But I'm leaving it here because it is about the vile words Trump used recently against someone.

[h]uge difference. There was a whole different tone between those tweets even though they were both derogatory. Just like stealing bubble gum from the store and robbing a bank. Both are crimes but they certainly aren't equal on the "crime scale".

Thank you for saying this. I had NO idea how prevalent the whole submission concept is before this election. It's like these people missed the entire New Testament! Macho man riding his horse, wife following somewhere behind....... Always at his beck and call... men wanting women barefoot and pregnant... I'm also tired of those people hijacking Christianity for their own purposes, it's as bad as Islamic extremists overshadowing the positive beliefs and values of their religion. I called them radical Christians and radical Muslims, some one said no not radical Christians........ I'll call them extreme Christians. The majority of Christians on this board are plain ordinary Christians, as am I. I don't have to tell you what I am. I behave the way a Christian should. I don't have to advertise.

Begged is quite different than "willing to do anything". Please explain the difference. In my book... begging is continually pleading my case. "Willing to do anything" for it is a phrase that is used to indicate that you are willing to lower you values, do something amoral or illegal to obtain what you want. That is a big difference. There are many things where I would be willing to "beg" or plead for something but where I certainly would not be willing to do anything for.

Alright maybe that was too big of a difference...but can you truthfully tell me that you do not see the different tone in those comments? I would say the same thing no matter which gender they were said to. I guess I consider myself a humanist. What do you consider yourself?

This morning on the news they said the majority of white women voted for Roy Moore. I've tried looking at this from every angle imaginable, and I just CAN'T wrap my brain around it Apparently the breakdown was along religious lines, too. The vast majority of evangelical white women voted for Moore, but the vast majority of non-evangelical white women voted for Jones. Don’t tell me certain Christian religious groups aren’t teaching women to subvert themselves in the name of “godliness.”Ultimately, though, the credit goes to black women. Without their strong turnout and votes for Jones, Moore would be going to the senate for sure. Trying to remember if I have ever been told to subvert. If so, I wasn't listening. My family valued strong women. I do remember being told often that a man should treat his wife like Jesus treated the church. If a man treated me like that, there wouldn't ever be a problem. It would be easy to submit to a man who made sure that I always treated like the most important thing in his life. I wouldn't ever have to submit because my feelings would come first.

Now, begging CAN include being willing to do anything, but it doesn't always.

Without their strong turnout and votes for Jones, Moore would be going to the senate for sure. Too many are taught from toddlerhood to submit, to not question, to obey, to "believe" what they are told, in spite of their critical thinking or evidence to the contrary.My hope is in young women and men of all races. I think they have a better understanding of true morality than Moore and those faux-Christians like him. And this is exactly why SHS is the way she is.

I find it disturbing that certain people need an explanation of the obvious in regards to DT and his innuendos.
However, this comment again says it all.

Not one thing, but they seem to have been Pavlov-conditioned to a few trigger phrases: "culture of life", '2nd amendment", "family values" and "freedom" (which usually means freedom to live in squalor, misery and poverty while others are free to feel minimal sense of obligation or consideration to your well-being).
