CNN’s inaugural “Road to 270” electoral map shows President Joe Biden struggling to recreate his Electoral College majority from his successful 2020 run and former President Donald Trump with enough states solidly in his corner or leaning in his direction to put him in a position to win the presidency again.

      Moving the goal posts again. He said they let him do it because he is a star not because he was powerful. On top of that you didn’t even include his whole quote.

      Contrary to what you’ve been told implied consent is a sufficient defense for sexual assult. Letting someone do something is implied consent.

      The reason that these semantics are important is if he was in a position of power, implied consent may not be sufficient.

          Being put under duress is not letting someone do something.

          A woman is not letting a man grope her when he follows her into a changing room uninvited.

          I haven’t defended Trump other than to say the statement they let me is not bragging about sexual assult.

              Them “letting” him do it is done under duress because of his status, which is not admissible in court as consent, which was your previous argument.

              You are making an assumption there and being misogynistic. You are assuming a woman doesn’t have the right to seek affection from a man like Trump.

              As I said before, he didn’t get his wives due to his personality.

              I assume you are young or just sheltered, you don’t seem to grasp many women seek power, rich men to afford the lifestyle they want.

                  What’s misogynistic about having a problem with situations where women don’t feel comfortable making their own choice??

                  Because you are assuming they don’t feel comfortable. I get you want to white knight women but they are free to make their own choices. Even if you disagree with them.

                  Women have the right to say no to anyone, even Donald Trump and should feel comfortable saying no.

                  Once again women have a choice. I get you hate women, but they have the right to say yes as well as no.

        It is important to liberals to think Trump admitted he sexually assaulted people. I don’t know why but to them it’s important.

        I met Trump at a party and I thought he was a sleezebag. He was a Democrat back then which just confirmed what I thought of him.

        Just like the liberals want to squeal about how bad things were under Trump. Things were pretty damn good under Trump. I had no major issues. I got called back to active duty to help with COVID and I gladly did it.

        A trans friend of mine kept talking about the genocide of trans people under Trump. I told her she must be late to the party since she is still alive and Trump said she could whatever bathroom she wanted.

        I think people forget the power dynamics of wealthy people. Many women would gladly let Trump fondle them in public because he is wealthy and they want that life. It doesn’t turn into sexual assault because liberals want it to be.

        Also the Carroll story I think is complete horseshit. She has zero real evidence. It is he said, she said and in a sane world that lawsuit would have been kicked out for waiting so long and no proof.

        So while I am no fan of Trump, I think he is a Democrat in Republican clothing, I will vote for him in the next election over Biden.
