Trump has done and said hundreds of things that would have ended any other candidates run for the Presidency immediately. Any little bit helps to keep this reckless, dangerous demagogue out of the office! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luiz 4,253 Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 btw hes said much harsher things about women before. what female support he already has (staunch republicans) will not be fazed by this. @Whispering at most this is something trump male supporters will point to to show he isnt that sexist. this works in his favor in an odd way I disapprove of what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it.

There are still Independents deciding and some female Republicans who are on the fence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are little things that change minds along the way. Many Republicans have been holding their noses or have been on the fence for months. Establishing a pattern is what the opposition is doing. It is like prosecuting a case in court, you have to build the case little by little. I'm sure there will be more coming out in the next few weeks that add to this pattern, and will continue to flip voters on the edge or that were undecided.

Bebe 17,289 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 It's bad, but Miss Universe is sleazy already and Trump says stuff that's equally bad or worse almost daily. Who at this point is listening to this shocked that Trump would say something like this? Maybe Hillary's camp can create another ad like: With a couple more soundbites but, like all the outrageous things Trump has said, I'm not sure it's going to make a huge impact. If anything I must agree with some users in this thread saying there will be a lot of men who listen to this and think "This is nothing! He is complimenting them! I say stuff like that!" and a lot of women who think "What's wrong with that? That's just how guys act! Boys will be boys!". This sort of behaviour, and a lot worse, gets excused all the time. He isn't going to lose anyone from his fan base over this, I doubt he will gain many votes from it either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
