Elections Trump Indicted On 91 Counts

I mean. Why does he say stuff like he never met her, she not his type and has admitted he grabs women and doesn’t need to ask? Doesn’t do his credibility any good.

That lady is a lunatic… lol

She fabricated the story from an episode of Law and Order and has a cat named Vagina

Oh… and she say rape is a turn on







And you retards wonder how Trump won

Here's what he said,

TRUMP: "Yeah that's her in the gold. I better use some Tic Tacs [breath fresheners] just in case I start kissing her. You know, I'm automatically attracted to beautiful... I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star they let you do it. You can do anything."

BUSH: "Whatever you want."

TRUMP: "Grab them by the p****. You can do anything."

Don't you think it's a bit of a distinction without a difference? Are you going to suggest he's not implying strongly that he's done that on more than one occasion?

Edit: I have been known to be somewhat pedantic about such things and perhaps it's true that it provides fodder for the disingenuous to distract from the point so, yeah, I agree it's better to be accurate, but in day to day back and forth around here not everyone is going to care to be that diligent. I doubt you can expect any sort of behavioural reform. It seems more productive to me to nip such an objection in the bud and add a correction by providing the actual quote, rather than to complain and not source the quote either.


Just my 2 cents.
Fair response for sure but I answered the first question right in my post where I said it wasn't a bad example. No, I'm not suggesting anything more than what I said. I just so happened to be in a much longer irl conversation about the point I was making hours prior to seeing this post so I was inclined to address it. With some more reading here or elsewhere I'm sure we could all find egregious examples.
Many came up last night, points from all sides of politics, sports, nutrition etc. I don't claim to be very knowledgeable about any countries politics but my point isn't just about politics anyways. It happens in all aspects of life.
Again my point is that bending the facts weakens a person or entities overall credibility. If you present something falsely in any way, even by omission for example, I'm going to suspect everything you say. One example of omission was people who say "Eggs are bad for you, end of story" no further discussion about possible benefits can be entertained.

I don't know the technical details but the biggest one from last night was the thing that got the convo started and was about Trump as well. I've not looked into it but the gent who brought it up writes for a large paper and seems to know his stuff. Anyone reading please feel free to comment.
His point was that MAGA haters love to inaccurately call Trump "a convicted felon" he explained in great detail that I can not why that is not factually correct. Iirc it boiled down to "no sentence"

As for the point in your edit, I generally don't do that as it could be a huge waste of my time seeing if as in this case I did not see a claim of what was specifically being referred to. I could have assumed it was the bus thing which it looks like you quoted but for all I know it was something else. I try not to put words in others mouths. I note that you seem to take the same approach here, you politely asked if I was going to suggest something rather than accusing me of doing it, that's appreciated.

Long post, in a rush, didn't proofread, hope it makes sense
 
Well I am going from memory but are you complaining he said something like " it's true, you can even grab them by the pussy" and not "I grab them by the pussy"?
Complaining? No. I asked one question, made a bit of a leading assumption about what incident you may have been referring to and pointed out the implications of such inaccuracies using this minor one as an example to illustrate the point. See it for what it is and the point I was making, read both my posts please and thanks.

In my opinion it isn't very inaccurate. He didn't say "I grab them by the pussy" but he did say "Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything." while describing his exploits. It's a stretch for you to claim it wasn't a literal quote when in essence it's the same thing.
 
Okay someone tell me straight-- how much of this stuck? I heard that one of the prosecutors just dropped the charges

I get it, you feel the need to say your piece. You made an understandable and extremely common mistake.
I agree with what Andy Capp said "I agree it's better to be accurate, but in day to day back and forth around here not everyone is going to care to be that diligent. I doubt you can expect any sort of behavioural reform".
No one claimed it was some horrifyingly huge mistake or anything but it was either accurate or not. "Very" just describes how inaccurate it was.
I didn't attack you. My offering was to raise a point and was not an opinion, it is a fact if this was about the bus thing.
Feel free to have the last word, we're only dealing with our ego's if we go further. I'm fine with facts.

I'm just being funny now but literally doesn't mean literally anymore. https://www.merriam-webster.com/grammar/misuse-of-literally 😁

I agree with you that it's better to be literal. I should have said in effect instead and my point would have been just as powerful.

I am aware. 2 guesses if you think that annoyed me when I heard about it lol.
I understand that english is fluid but damn doesn't there have to be an exception or 2?
Have a good one...

Personally, I think it's dumb and annoying as fuck--not LB's use of it since it's become pretty normal around here, but the trend in general.

Raging against the machine doesn't do any good, I know, but I feel like someone has to stand up for continued correct use of whom--just for example.

@1rawdog, if you'd like to amuse yourself with my views of such matters you can search the War Room for posts containing "Captain Pedantic" but here are some snippets:

Just don't fucking say plays a factor or learnings instead of lessons and I'll allow it.
*them, which I only mention because using the correct pronoun there makes it sound far less weird.

It only sounds ridiculous due to lack of familiarity. Language changes. Many people think it's ridiculous to care about the correct usage of whom, while others get their neck up about people ending sentences with prepositions. In my own case, what drives me nuts these days is "plays a factor". When I was a kid, the word contact was a noun and some people looked down their noses at usage like contact me later.

To me, the only issue here is this. If you know a person would like to be called they instead of he or she and you refuse to do it based only on your personal belief it's stupid, I think you're just being a dick for no good reason. At the same time, if you're a person who wants to be called they but the person who refers to you has no way of knowing that, you're being a dick for no good reason if you get offended. It's all down to intent, IMO.

Nonplussed is a good one but I would have used the example of begs the question. Aside from my own contributions the to greater good (LOL) uses of the expression the way it was originally intended that I come across are so rare that they're practically non-existent but in its modified form it appears all over the place. That shit gives me cramps, honestly. Nauseatingly, "plays a factor" is gaining currency--for similar reasons presumably.
And here's one that's too old to "quote":

Also lol @ quote quote unquote--I crack me up.

Someone needs to edit the thread title... lol


fanny willis is officially disqualified and BOOTED off the case.

Georgia court of appeals: "It's a significant appearance of impropriety caused by the conduct of a public prosecutor"

"maybe we'll get him in 4 years"

the crazy woke crowd just keeps handing wins over to us thanks to their behavior and i couldn't be more grateful of the liberal idiots 🤣
 
The guilty ruling on the 34 laughable counts from the "hush money" trial are the only criminal charges that remain.

And that one is hanging by a thread.

Judge Merchan refuses to address sentencing, so the case can't proceed to appeals.

He's going to wait until Trump's term is over and then lay down a sentence. Depending on his decision, Trump may see prison time until appeals can be processed.

However, if things maintain current course, that won't happen until 2029... lol

You have to think that case will have be resolved somehow before then. No way it remains in limbo for 4+ years
