Same rhetoric, policies, party, etc.

Would he even make it pass “grab em by the p****” in 2016?

    He’d have evicted himself out of his own houses and then run an ad campaign to have himself executed for a murder he didn’t commit long before he entered politics properly.

    Are you kidding? One of the big attractions of Trump is to prove the shittiest white man can beat a qualified black woman.

    if DT was anyone else he would have been held with no bail for having 90+ pending felonies and having been convicted of 32 already. The fact that his passport has not been restricted is clear evidence that being “rich & famous” gets you different treatment.

      There was a thing he said back in the early 2000s, and it was leaked around the 2016 election. He was talking about women, and said something to the effect of “When you’re rich, and famous, they let you grab em by their pussy”.

      People at the time were angry that his views were that, but, honestly, that’s the life he’s lived. That’s the life he knows as reality. WE see it as disgusting, because he’s saying that women can be treated as sex objects, and that he’s ok with that. He see’s it as just the world we live in, because women approach him and treat THEMSELVES as sex objects. Those are the women that approach him, so that’s the experience he has with women. Women who only want him for his money.

      And now we see it even applies to the courts. Maybe we should still be mad at him for having those views, but also understand why he has those views, and start holding society accountable. Maybe we should be angry at parents who don’t teach their daughters to have more self respect than to find some rich guy to bang for money.

      Because at the end of the day, all trump is saying is “I get treated differently, because I’m rich.”

      And as angering as that is to hear…he’s not wrong. He’s just an asshole.

        That’s some A+ victim blaming right there. E. Jean Carroll didn’t do shit

        …and what world are you living in that these women are approaching him at all? He had to get a financial arrangement to buy a marriage with Melania, a person who won’t fucking touch him, and slaps away his hand when he tries to touch her. He had to pay a shitload of money to have a chance with Stormy Daniels, same with Karen McDougal, and he paid even more money to try to cover up that he did.

        Trump is a rapist and the way he treats women is the way of a rapist. You’re fucking deluding yourself if you think lots of attractive women have approached Donald Trump. Nearly every woman he has ever touched he has paid for the pleasure of doing so. Even when he has “grabbed women by the pussy” he pays through lawsuits. He just thinks that’s the cost of being a gross rapist.

        Literally the only woman I can think of off the top of my head who we have proof who has moved on Trump is Laura fucking Loomer who isn’t exactly a beautiful woman, my dude.

        I can’t believe a bogus post arguing that Trump is more of a ladies man than a rapist has so many upvotes.

          My post never said anything close to him being a ladies man. My post is that trump views women as transactional property, and that sex is something he gets for free because he’s rich.

          How did you read my post and think I was describing a ladies man??? His views are gross and a result of his experiences.

          But your perspective just confuses me how you got 2 + 2 = potato.

    I’m not sure anyone can explain the particular confluence of characteristics that makes TFG relatively immune from consequence. Change any one thing and he’s suddenly not him, so he loses his unique appeal.

      This 🔝

      Berlusconi had a similar political appeal. After he exited politics, his party went to the biggest in Italy to insignificant.

      It will be really difficult for someone to pick up the Republican Party and run with the same platform as DJT. Many have tried it (e.g. de santis) but none is able to have the same success.

    Aren’t most of his current supporters racist enough to not support him if he was so ?

      You think the white supermacists would vote Kamala / Hillary / Biden rather than Kanye?

      Another one of Trump’s core demographics is the religious christians too, despite Trump not having a religious bone in his body.

    No, because his popularity with the cult of fools is primarily based on two things: 1. talking at a third grade level and 2. fear mongering about black and brown people.

    I suppose you could add “appearing to be rich and successful” and some other ingredients in there. But I think the 2 mentioned are his biggest power sources by far.

    I was gonna reply that Hermain Cain was probably the “Black Donald Trump”, but I looked it up and Cain actually had success in his business ventures. He also was only married once.

    No, considering his followers are white supremacists.
