    Didn't they do this to themselves by their behavior?

    Seems like it's all smoke and no fire.  These women have no proof.

    Time will tell. I don't think investigations have been ended, nor all allegations brought to light yet.

    Btw, should I read your reply as if a victim can't proof the assault, the assault itself is okay and there is no fire? Smh. This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at October 15, 2016 3:17 PM MDT

    Sexual assault is not ok.  False accusations are not ok either.

    Now let's see, you seem to be rather smart an able to see what others think when making their replies, as shown to me another place inside this question. Im sure you can tell yourself, in combination with the question asked, and based on what inspired the question. Have a lovely day.

  • Right or wrong, they can do it. Their hold on public opinion is frightening. Add to this the fact that they are drunk on power and completely out of control.

    He's talking about the press I believe.

    I asked the poster themselves. I'm sure they can reply for themselves, should they want to. This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at October 15, 2016 2:54 PM MDT

    That never stops you from jumping into  threads that obviously need no third participant.

    Am I telling you you cannot? Is this personal, or related to the question, and the comments made inside this thread? Hmm.

    Btw, do you need to like your own posts to make it look like you got a point? This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at October 15, 2016 3:14 PM MDT

    I'm laughing about the like thing.  I didn't do it on purpose but I'll leave it. It seems we shouldn't even be able to like our own posts.   Do I get a point for that?  What are the points for?  Or are they the credits to buy gifts?

    This is an ALL participant site whether someone is the second or the 20th or beyond.  However, let's say for the sake of argument that we follow YOUR logic.  Since SapphicHeart asked PolkPlace a question, that would make Sapphic the first participant and Polk the second participant.  I'm no mathematician, but it appears this makes you the third participant.  If it wasn't bad enough that you broke your own rule, you also attempted to answer for someone else.  I would have to object on the grounds of speculation (602, 607).  You're an....uh....an attorney, right?

    Yes, this is how they roll today.  No journalistic integrity at all.  And they do it with such conviction; it boggles the mind.

    Difference is, Bill Cosby really was a creep/rapist by all appearances and testimony.  Trump might well be/have been, but the evidence, by contrast, isn't there.

    Now, if you're asking whether the gover-business house organ (MSM) goes on the attack against conservatives, absolutely.  They've been doing it since Nixon.

    Do you read?

    Bill Cosby was tried and convicted by over 50 women.   I doubt that the PRESS did a thing to him.

    He did it.

    Whether or not Trump did anything is just payback for all the lies and innuendo he has caused everyone else to suffer for the last 2 years or more.

    I hope he rots in hell.
