Nearly 24 hours after he said that Hillary Clinton had been "schlonged" by Barack Obama during her failed 2008 presidential campaign, Donald Trump took to Twitter to defend his comments.
Schlonged, the Republican businessman said in a tweet, was not a vulgar reference to a penis. Instead, he argued, he meant "beaten badly."
Once again, #MSM is dishonest. "Schlonged" is not vulgar. When I said Hillary got "schlonged" that meant beaten badly.

Trump went on to defend his comments, saying that NPR's Neal Conan had once used the phrase to refer to the trouncing at the polls that the Walter Mondale-Geraldine Ferraro presidential ticket received in the 1984 election.
(woo-hoo, did not take Trump long to respond)

Are you all ready for the big day? I am; thankfully.
Kind of like Strom Thurmond and Roslyn’s bedpost?

Trading insults is different than a good argument.
I think Trump is giving Obama entirely too much credit.
Well, definitions have changed over time. Gay used to mean happy.
Scholonged isn’t even known by anyone under 30, I think.
"NPR says Geraldine Ferraro was "schlonged"... in 2011!"

Who wants to bet he knew that when he said it, and now he gets the media to report how badly Clinton was beaten in 2008.
Yep, we are good to go. Don’t have to leave the house for anything at all, and we have truly awesome Christmas treats and delicious meals to look forward to for the rest of the week.
Trump is the Roadrunner against Wiley Clinton and her ACMEdia.
Merry Christmas
I saw a clip earlier today and it was astounding.
The MSM called it degrading and misogynistic. Hmmm where were they when Palin and her family were being called nasty names? But here they are when Trump uses a term that prevalent a few decades ago.
Our message will never get to the people if we don’t have a voice in the media.
Look at post #41 and you will see. Just throwing it back at gramps.
He just LOVES playing these games with the “gotcha!” press - and he wins every single time. It’s just incredible.
He gets DAYS of free publicity out of a stupid word most people never heard of - THEN he comes out and points out that THEY used the same term on NPR (of all places!), so what are they going to say NOW.
Once again, he shows them up for the ignorant, childish, partisan hacks they are - and seems to delight in doing so. Wow. He’s even BETTER at taunting the enemy than Reagan was.
EXACTLY.
You can please feel free to believe anything you want.
Just refrain from attributing your preference for an obscene inference to the rest of us.
Thank you.
Look at post #98.
I'm not from NY either, and to me, the word 'ditter' is an obscenity.
So what's your point?
Yeah, beaten badly with a big penis.

By bo????
Oh good; very good indeed! :-)
It sounds as though you and I are in the same boat; far ahead of the crowd. LOL
