So?
That was 17 years ago, and 2/3 rds of the country agreed with Trump.
We are in 2016.
If you can’t get past that, then don’t vote for the man.
I obviously won’t vote for him, but we need to be accurate, Trump said that in 2008. If it happened 17 years ago, why is Trump mad about it now and wasn’t then? Why should Cruz be attacking Hillary for enabling her rapist husband now, since it happened 17 years ago?
Okay, I’m being obtuse. This is really what I’m trying to say: Cruz is blamable for not bringing up this issue and Trump is great because he’s talking about something that happened 17 years ago. This is how you draw the distinction between the two. But, if we’re going to bring up things that happened 17 years ago, does that mean we can bring up everything Trumps said in the past 17 years ago, that Trump had only great things to say about the Clintons, gave them a lot of money, etc.?
Then, what if Clinton just starts playing the victim card? She can’t because she’s on records saying this and that. Trump’s also on record isn’t he.
What’s really happening is you just think that distinction makes Cruz look bad to people on FR who haven’t made up their minds. It doesn’t matter that what you wrote was inaccurate, and you knew it, you thought it makes Trump look better so you wrote it.
