Yet if this were Obama and a porn star it'd be the end of world right? It's amazing how republicans and democrats can twist anything to fit their particular narrative. You guys will make excuses for Trump because in your mind, he's right and everyone else is wrong. It's really quite sad that most of you don't understand this.
It has gone beyond absurdity and has circled back into comedy. It's almost like when they dismiss obviously-problematic things like this with a casual wave of their #maga caps, they sort of know they are part of the inside joke of Trump-can-do-no-wrong-ism.
They have to know how ridiculous it is at this point. Otherwise, I've waaaaay overestimated humanity.
So people that arent obsessed with trumps sex life are the ridiculous ones?
It used to be that the left didnt care about who people had sex with. It was one of the things I agreed with them about.
No. People who dismiss the hypocrisy of the evangelical right supporting a lecherous, prideful adulterer are being ridiculous.
Trump was propped up by the party and religion who have historically repressed sexuality, sex work, and secular pride. It's like their centuries of enforced values are meaningless when faced with this marmalade ball of chaos.
Only #maga culture could possibly mix that strange cocktail of defending sexual freedom and punching down at the same time, of simultaneously having fundie Christians defend adultery while still harming others over the "sanctity of marriage". Such bull #.
Oh please.
Just like the left and party of sexual freedom and women push Islamic culture, whihc represents more oppression for gays and women.
Or ghow the feminists pushed Bill clinton.
ANd so on.
The selective outrage is palpable.
Religious people voted for Trump, some voted for hillary.
Some are hypocrites that thought trump was pristine, they were wrong or willfully ignorant.
But does that excuse the other side being hypocritical and now all of the sudden pretending a consensual affair is a huge deal, when they refused to look at those things (rightfully so) under past democrats?
I don't know any liberals who are "outraged" at the fact Trump is sleeping with adult film star; that was sort of a given. I think the exasperation (what you have mistaken for outrage) is from the double standard.

I hate to break it to you, but liberals being outraged by double standards is not going to draw much sympathy.
People who voted for trump will never have a chance to screw-up a presidential election ever again.

His base will continue to shrink. The blue backlash will continue to grow. The national demographics will continue to change.

Why has CNN decided to run a SMUT story that has ZERO bearing on the office?
Are they trying to make it seem like this is a story that affects his office?
I don't get it.
With the lawyer for the porn star touting possible photos or video on a DVD that he has promoted on Twitter
— the president has reportedly been complaining all week about the media coverage the actress, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, has been receiving.
...snip...
According to the report, Trump has been on the phones with friends and outside advisers attempting to gauge how much damage he’ll take on should the woman, who claims she had an affair with him, reveal details or photos that could possibly shake his administration more than an FBI investigation into his presidential campaign.

It's to cause chaos during Trumps Presidency and to cause a major riff between Trump and Melania! They want a scandal that Melania left Trump because of sexual affairs during her marriage to him.... Before this Scandal even broke story's in every fake media news outlet were running stories that there was trouble in paradise like Melania refuses to hold Trumps hand, Melania walks out of Air Force one before Trump! Bla Bla Bla.... I don't think for a minute Melania is buying any of it!

Trump really appeals to the tabloid style readers. A president that likes to grab the genitals of women is perfect for the nasty rags that trade in those kinds of stories. Trump has no one to blame but himself. You reap what you sow....Corinthians 6:7
Tabloid TV and publications just want to sell their content, thus sell advertising....It's just business and capitalism.
Places like the NYT ran articles discussing how ridiculous it would be to focus on Bill clintons consensual affairs.

But that didn't happen. Slick Willy is still popular in the tabloids, blue dress, cigar stories are what the American consciousness loves. and the GOP tried to impeach him adding to the mix. Crooked Hillary and her skidmarks pictures are everywhere. Obama's gay, antichrist, nigerian, birther stories....
But Trump get a free ride? There was an agenda against the dembs as well. This holier than thou BS doesn't look good on you or any conservative for that matter. Grow up!

Perhaps Obama isn't as a colorful personality as the current Guy in the WH. Trump has a very interesting past [Howard Stern interviews] and isn't doing so hot in the present with his brilliant tweets... He should just be ignored? Not hardly!
