There are many things about DT that I find troubling and you don't have to look that hard to find his flaws, but I don't feel the need to pick apart every little thing he says. I have already formed an overall opinion of him.
"Odd" is too broad. The adjectives I would use to describe Trump's speech are tasteless, crass, crude, boorish, unseemly, gauche, inappropriate..OK, I admit using a thesaurus!
The thing is, this is how he sounds all the time. He's so classless that it's not even surprising that he'd talk about his daughter this way! He thinks the highest compliment you can give a woman is to positively comment on her good looks and sex appeal. Such a dickwad.
Odd is just fine with me, which is why I posted it - everyone is entitled to their opinions
I just think this topic is reaching to prove something that has already been proven. DT has displayed some alarming flaws, so I don't think that it's necessary to nit-pick every tiny thing he's ever said. He obviously admires his daughter (and maybe in a way that's sort of creepy), but I don't think it's relevant to his campaign.
As I said above to Monnie, I believe that kenny provided the link to entertain us more than to alert us to some infamy. I was very entertained. Yesterday when my brother and I spent a long day in the hospital with my father, we talked about all sorts of things. I found out that my niece, who is an assistant film editor in the Los Angeles area likes Comedy Central and that my brother has seen Trevor Noah (of whom I had bever heard prior to kenny's posting). I asked my brother if he had seen the episode posted above and he had. He hadn't seen fit to mention it to me. It was obviously just something amusing (to him) that he had seen. But he is a die-hard Democrat, an attorney, and extremely well-informed. He wouldn't get all worked up over a comedy show.

AGBF you do not know the motivations of others.
Further, what you 'believe' other's motivations are is not relevant to any discussion.
I ask you to kindly not your speculations of your opinions of what my motivations are as talking points.
Please write your own material, and leave me out of it.
Take responsibility for your own ideas, as do I.
What you are doing is passive/aggressively influencing other's opinions of me.
Not cool.
Please let my posts be.
They will get agreement or disagreement just fine without your help.
You want to express your opinion? Fine. Do so.
Just leave my posts out of it.
I'm not seeking allies, enemies, or sides here on PS.
I'm not into gangs, for or against me.
