Now that Franken has resigned...

[Markle]

So where did I get it wrong, here's his quote: (my b/u)

"Nevertheless, today I am announcing that, in the coming weeks, I will be resigning as a member of the United States Senate."

He left the door open. Al Franken is not gone yet.

 

[HappyJoy]

Franken is way more creepy

God no. Trump is way, way more creepy. Mainly because he's dumb as a sack of rocks. Whereas at least Al is funny and intelligent.

And still has his own teeth.

Tell me this: How does someone "dumb as a sack of rocks" become a multi-billionaire, marry a super model, and become the greatest President America has ever had?

The truly dumb one is the schmuck who ends up being a do-nothing Senator from a worthless socialist state where every other person you see is from Somalia. A Senator who is no longer a Senator, I might add. Now that's pretty damned dumb.

When your born with millions poking out your asshole like some slack jawed WASPY pinata.

Wow! You just played both the "race card" and the "economic inequality card" in one move, Swifty.

Too bad you didn't throw down the "gender card" too, you might have had a chance of winning in 2020.

But you didn't, so enjoy your second Trump term.

Trump was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, more opportunity than most.

However, the problem with Trump is he doesn't appear to be the same guy he was in the 80s. His speech, mannerisms and vocabulary have changed, he's a dumbed down version of his former self and uses his narcissism as a shield to protect himself.

He started out with only a one million dollar loan from his parents, and turned that into billions, as well as pretty much financing his own Presidency, and donating his Presidential salary to charities.

Now compare him to Obama, who only achieved when he did because of Affirmative Action. Donald Trump worked for what he has, it was not given to him at the expense of the American taxpayers, as in the case of Obama.

 

[Checkerboard Strangler]

None of this was known when Al Franken won his election by fewer than 700 votes. He should be thanking those women for keeping quiet for eight years or he'd have still been doing the Catskills circuit.

None of WHAT was known?

Oh, you must mean all those compromising photos of Leanne doing the very thing she accused Al of doing, or did you mean her admission that she "didn't know Roger Stone was a Trump political operative."?

If I had a dime for every internet forum poster who calls himself "J Galt" or "John Galt", I'd be a millionaire.

[Votto]

When will Trump follow his lead and do the same. I mean, they both have admitted to sexual misconduct. Shouldn't we hold all elected officials to the same standards?

Franken made it clear in his resignation speech that Trump was the target.

In fact, I would wager that all of these "sex scandals" were started just to take Trump out.

Don't believe me? Well men like Conyers and Weinstein were known to have these issues for decades, yet no one did anything about it. That is, till Trump won and had similar baggage from the past. Now all of a sudden we all care about women's rights?

Michelle Obama gave a speech about Weinstein regarding what a wonderful human being he was, despite everyone knowing he was a sexual predator. I don't buy for a minute that anything has changed other than Trump getting elected.



Thank Trump for all of these men being left out to dry, they are just sacrificial lambs who will never see jail time.

Along with that loan he had all the help he needed with daddy's company too. Then after that he inherited millions when daddy kicked. Since then his companies have gone bankrupt multiple times, he's screwed other people out of money and then banks stopped loaning him money so the only bank that would work with him just happened to be a prime choice for Russian money laundering.

Not really a great track record.

Now compare him to Obama, who only achieved when he did because of Affirmative Action. Donald Trump worked for what he has, it was not given to him at the expense of the American taxpayers, as in the case of Obama.

How many rich kids get into college because of legacy programs? Obama had scholarships and student loans, what taxpayer cost are you talking about?

If Hillary had given that speech, I could almost buy your theory, because Bill and Hillz DID have a ton of Hollywood friends, for MANY years.
Barack and Michelle, not so much until he became a candidate back in 2008.

And as regards, "everyone knowing" Harvey was a predator, you can say that about insiders, people IN "the industry".
Yes, when it came to people "in the industry" it was something of an open secret.
The OTHER open secret, which was actually an OPEN FACT, was that Weinstein was literally the 800 pound gorilla in the industry and could make or break almost anyone. He was an actual Hollywood "kingmaker" almost the likes of which only used to exist in the days of the old Hollywood Studio System.

But unless you hob-nobbed with Hollywood types all day long, and you were just in the normal circles on the periphery, the most you were likely to hear were rumors, vague ones, because those "in the industry" were kind of hesitant to point the spotlight on Harvey.

I know, I WAS in the industry, and you didn't want to poke the bear, unless you wanted to be eaten.

So my point is, if Michelle was even coached at all for that speech, and I suspect she would have been, she was probably coached to sweeten it for Harvey, because that would make Harvey do nice things.

Yea, another nonsensical conspiracy theory in order to save Trump's reputation.

There's big difference between a do-nothing Senator from Minnesota, and the greatest President this country has ever seen.

Are there pictures of these things Trump said he did, or was it just locker talk? And why are women not coming out of the woodwork to accuse him, like there were Franken?

We have Trump's own words on tape.

Maybe the pictures were just "locker room" talk with Franken eh?

That picture documents action, not words. You have to be pretty damn stupid not to understand that.

I’ve heard women I know do it a few times, for sure. Boasting how great their sex life is, how well hung a guy is, etc and come to find out they really aren’t having any. Lol

Actually, my silence on Trump is due to it being nothing more than locker room talk.
There are pics showing Franken actually performing locker room talk.

Since when do guys boast about sexually assaulting women in locker rooms?

As a maintenance guy girls do it worse ..

Boasting about one’s Sex life is one thing. Boasting about sexual assault is quite another.

These cretins don't know the difference. It's what makes them Republicans.

It's you who doesn't know the difference. "They let you" means it's not assault. It's voluntary. How many times does that have to be repeated before it penetrates the skulls of morons like you?

Well, it's an assumption on Trump's part for starters and that's not good and he confirmed he is an assaulter by stating "I don't even wait".

“I must say, however, that as someone who has undoubtedly

Law Review’s affirmative action policy when I was selected
to join the Review last year........”

Obama’s 1990 note to the Harvard Law Record ” as someone who has undoubtedly benefited from affirmative action programs during my academic career”

How in the hell do you think he made it through school and was elected President? Obama truly was our first "Affirmative Action" President.

 

[bripat9643]

"What sexual misconduct did Trump ever admit to, you dumb snowflake" in 3, 2, 1....

In the Access Hollywood tape, Trump admitted he sexually harassed women and bragged about it.

For the 1000th time, no he didn't.

 

[bripat9643]

We have Trump's own words on tape.

Maybe the pictures were just "locker room" talk with Franken eh?

Then we can safely assume that you have never lied about anything when you were hanging out with your same-sex friends.

A major difference, everything was out in the open well before President Donald Trump won in a landslide.

None of this was known when Al Franken won his election by fewer than 700 votes. He should be thanking those women for keeping quiet for eight years or he'd have still been doing the Catskills circuit.

Nope, that's from an SNL skit.

I didn't say he didn't benefit from AA, I said where are the taxpayer costs to his education? Not that I'd be against that as he obviously went far.

Doesn't look to me like you've been around internet forums much , noob. Come back when you figure out how they work.

Let's see:
171 posts in one month?
You have a total of 4,855, with a join date of 2011, for an average of 809 posts a year, so at the rate I am going, I'll be passing you by in a fraction of the time, because in six more years I'll have a total three times larger...12,312.

Now let's try trophy points!
IN ONE MONTH I earned 31 trophy points. If I keep at it for six years at the same rate, I'll be at 2,322 trophy points compared to your 380 over YOUR six year tenure.

You don't have the foggiest notion how long I've been in other forums, and your scores aren't that great for someone who's been irritating people with your Ayn Rand worship for six years, so if I were you, I'd probably take it on the chin and watch and see what this Strangler guy is all about before shooting your wad.

You don't have the patience of Howard Roark, you don't have the critical thinking skills of Ms. Rand, you don't have a track record worth mentioning (a lot of folks who have been at USMB for six years have TENS of thousands of posts and THOUSANDS of trophy points) and you have a tendency to not look before you leap.

Yeah, Trump is so dumb that he beat the entire Republican establishment and the entire Democrat establishment, and he had never even run for public office before!

Yeah, that is is real stupid, I tell ya!
