Men routinely say that like or dislike the looks of other men. It doesn't mean the man is handsome or ugly, it means he looks sneaky or honest or whatever. Men say that about women, too, newsflash, and for the same reasons. But Trump, for what ever reason, can't say, for instance, look at that women, because he must be talking about her physical attractiveness. That is so elitist and so double standard and so feminist. I am glad you called her on it.
On this issue, I think the real truth is that Donald Trump is just babbling in celebrity mode when he should turn the page and stop “mansplaining” what he may or may not have done. I think most people get this more than the media may think, Hollywood is not the real world and celebtrity status in general warps the fabric of human interaction.
My guess is that these stories are an eclectic mixture of fantasy, hyperbole, truth about lack of impulse control, and delusion. They probably form no organized or coherent set, other than a rush to publicity in the politicized hope of derailing a campaign.
The problem is that we have to choose between one person who we know is dangerous and unsuitable, and another person who is perhaps flawed or at least was flawed ten years or more ago. There isn’t some third choice, unless God plans to have the second coming between now and November 8th.
