    I'm loving all the memes put up by conservatives about how liberal Hollywood elites have long supported guys like Weinstein and even Roman Polanski. It really pisses them off when you point out that they voted for a guy who looks to be just like Weinstein.

    Well, I mean, it was Trump's go-to line at the presidential debate days after the story broke, so I'd imagine that, yes, the media would cite that quote particularly.

    It's not even a matter of "looks to be." He openly talked about doing stuff just like that.

    I expect we'll see more come out. Saw one earlier about the Pussycat Dolls.

    Anywhere there's a highly competitive industry with attractive young people trying to make it, and rich old assholes running the show, there are sexual predators, unfortunately.

    Yeah. Leftists are more socially progressive than economically leftist. That has been the case since Bill Clinton.

    I have a hard time believing that if there was Weinstein-style dirt on Trump, it wouldn't have surfaced by now. I cannot believe that dirt like that could have possibly remained uncovered for this long.

    The active opposition to Trump is something not comparable to the go-with-the-flow attitude regarding Hollywood abuse. There are people and organizations dedicated to finding whatever they can to go after Trump for, whereas with Weinstein there was no such effort. In fact, because there was no such effort, that is what led to Weinstein continuing on more and more with his behavior until it all became too much.

    I just don't think those two men are comparable if we're talking about skeletons in the closet.

    I've heard several parties mention that they have Trump on tape saying all manner of racist, sexist etc things but they have not surfaced. For example the producers of the Apprentice:

    http://www.independent.co.uk/news/wo...-a7986081.html

    If true, then there's even dirt that WE KNOW ABOUT that hasn't been uncovered.

    P.S. This old gem from a CNBC interview in 1999:

    “Can you imagine how controversial I’d be? You think about him (President Clinton) and the women. How about me with the women? Can you imagine?”

    I'll be shocked if some substantive bombshell comes out this late. The opposition to Trump has been at a fever pitch for almost a year, and it stretches credulity to think that substantive claims of sexual abuse, naked racism, or anything truly disastrous would have been successfully kept under wraps this long.

    I reserve the right to be wrong, but I'm highly doubtful.

    “This was locker-room banter, a private conversation that took place many years ago. Bill Clinton has said far worse to me on the golf course — not even close,” Trump said in a statement. “I apologize if anyone was offended.”
    I am replying to this part... it is in your quote...

    I am saying that unless Bill told Trump that he raped women Trump is lying about him telling him anything "far worse" than sexual assault by grabbing women's pussies.

    I'm not saying anything will come to light, frankly it hardly seems necessary when Trump is busy undermining himself at every turn with scandals in real time. But I don't think it's actually as implausible as it appears.

    The Access Hollywood leak was 11 years old when it "broke" during the campaign.

    Another recent example: Milo whatshisface had a career-terminating scandal after the tape of his pedophilia apologism went public. But that tape was common knowledge on the internet, having been part of a podcast a year earlier.

    I think there is no way there isn't a lot of such activities in Trumps past. I mean, he has made a few kids with a few different women in his life so far. But I would be hard pressed to believe he was just into serial monogamy and trading up which is kinda skeezy, there is no way he hasn't used his position to get pussy.

    Heck if we shined a light deep in his life, the lives of any given New York Mogul and all of Hollywoods producers ect, I am sure we'd find things to make our blood run cold.

    As a note, I've heard Penthouse has a bounty for the details on Trump specifically.

    On MMO-C we learn that Anti-Fascism is locking arms with corporations, the State Department and agreeing with the CIA, But opposing the CIA and corporate America, and thinking Jews have a right to buy land and can expect tenants to pay rent THAT is ultra-Fash Nazism.

    Um, she's alleging actual sexual harassment. What does that have to do with "locker room talk."?

    And, I'm still waiting for people to tell me where you find these locker rooms where men brag about the ease of committing sexual assault.
