Why is Trump Apologizing?
Canada Free Press ^ | 10/08/16 | Chris Volkay

Time to wake up and grow up. Come out and smell the reality you tepid, silly, self-righteous, sanctimonious, self-deluded, chuckle-heads. It's simply reality

Oh the horror, the horror (No pun intended). Why this endless stupidity? Hmm? Why is Trump apologizing for his honest comments? Ridiculous.

The comments that I saw were that when you are a celebrity you can go up and “kiss and grope women and they let you do it.” He also said “grab “em by the p***Y.”

Weird angle from the Left:

It was classy to apologize. Now he has the right to fight back. And there’s plenty of ammo.

You have to use a little common sense. This was something that wasn’t meant to be public and called for an apology.

He said sorry for one reason only. It was the right thing to do.

Trump apologized.

He’s not “apologizing.” Get it right.

He is now fighting the GOPe led my the Bush/Romney machine, the dimoKKKRATS and the media. We have to get the word out as to what is happening. The one world order guys are pulling out all the stops. This is war for our country.

methinks the ‘mainstream’ media has lost more than its way, ThePiedPiper would BE impressed how readily they stick to an agenda bent on their own eventual demise knowingly or otherwise.. Never minding the warning signs along the way.. Driven by a desire to scoop the world.

To have your private, “locker room” comments aired in public is to be humbled.

Trump humbly apologized.

Mr. Volkay, if you’re going to analyze something like this and write an article about it, do a better job of analyzing.

I would love to see a drudge headline:

VOTERS’ FURY DIRECT AT ESTABLISHMENT

He is right to apologize.

I will smack my son to high heaven for both the words and the immoral behavior he basically admitted to.

Melanie was right to berate him. And OK to absolve him afterward.

Come on people. Apologizing is a good thing mostly. Just because we’re used to our people apologizing for stupid things (”insulting” preferred groups, etc), doesn’t mean all apologies are dumb and wimpy.

Good for him for doing so.

Republican defectors meaning Democrat infiltrators taking off their Republican masks and suits and going home to their roots.

I thought he did not realize anyone but the Bush guy was listening. I guess if you are running for President of US you don't speak to anyone unless there are at least five people you can see and you know who they are. (Crazy about nothing.)

He was being totally silly and joking and anyone saying otherwise is a liar. This is totally ridiculous. These republican clowns cannot hold up for even a few hours before folding in a presidential contest.

It wasn’t an apology. Before you punch, you draw back your fist. That moment of drawing back the fist is not running away.

Correct.

Also, we are a forgiving people. Regardless of our recent societal morality, Americans love a redemption story.

Think of this like a Lifetime movie.

We’re at the end of Act 2 headed into Act 3. The flawed hero is at his low point, the entire forces of the opponent (PIAPS, Dems, GOPe, Soros, MSM) are arrayed against him.

But he humbles himself, apologizes, promises to do better, his wife forgives him, and his true friends come to his side.

The redeemed hero then pulls together all of his strength and fights desperately against the overwhelming odds against him and prevails.

The audience WANTS the HERO to WIN and the EVIL OPPONENT (PIAPS) to LOSE.

Our hero (Trump) is flawed - just like we like our best protagonists. They change and become better by the end of the movie.

Our antagonist (PIAPS) is very powerful and evil.

We’re seeing a movie drama being played out in reality, imo.
