A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.

Pffffft....just locker room talk. I imagine his opponent has also many times engaged in that sort of conversation among her friends. Giggling and suggesting that she could use her wealth and power to grab at the penile members of attractive young men and coerce them into satisfying her physical needs and desires.
It would sure be easier than grabbing by the pu$$y.

Donald Trump Still Thinks The Central Park Five Are Guilty (They Aren’t)
Quote
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump still believes the “Central Park Five,” a group of black and Hispanic men who were convicted but later exonerated in the 1989 rape of a female jogger in New York City’s Central Park, are guilty, he told CNN this week. The news comes more than a decade after the men were cleared by DNA evidence and a confession by the actual culprit about his role in the crime.
I've been bemused/appalled/alarmed at the progress of Trump throughout the campaign, and there is still a large contingent of apologists who excuse the most reprehensible behavior of "their candidate". I thought it was obvious at the outset, but many were fooled. I think, like Obama in 2008, he was lauded with attributes he never possessed by those with particular desired results. He is so far beyond a "flawed candidate". He's just a vile, vulgar creature in a suit. Yet.. He'll still get 40% of the vote.

Only if you put a "R" next to the sandwich on the ballot. I am convinced Democrats are a little more discerning. If you ran Hitler as the Democratic candidate, a lot of them would defect.
And where the hell are they going to come from? Look at the huge lineup the Republicans fielded. Not a single one of them worth a tinker's dam. Bernie was pretty good as candidates go, in fact, he was a great candidate! Promised the moon and stars and might have even made good on a few of them. But personally I had some doubts about whether he was really prepared to be president.
As things stand I'm perfectly satisfied with the Democratic candidate. I feel she is a "real candidate" she's prepared for the office and knows, perhaps better than anyone else, exactly what she's signing up for.

I think that is certainly so. You've got to remember she is a lawyer and a politician, not some housewife. I am pretty sure she was consulted on just about every political decision Bill ever made.
Too bad she could not control his non-political decisions as well!
