Then read it, and we'll take it from there. We're certainly not talking the same language in this matter. And I don't mean English.

I don't think that this was your point. Your point seems to be that Trump doesn't lie because he's in character, which considering the definition of "lie", seems like nonsense.

Eric Trump: It Took “Courage” For My Dad To Not Mention Bill Clinton’s Infidelity

It's absurd to demand credit for not saying something, while naming said thing, but have at it team Donald.

ETA: I suspect this tactic is the brain child of Ailes and/or Bannon. The media loves a sex story and this draws oxygen away from a worse story of Donald admitting he doesn't pay taxes. The taxes line potentially offends more voters than blaming a spouse for her husband's infidelity.

I don't make a habit out of demonstrating other people's claims, no.

Do stars have a special meaning for you? Was that supposed to indicate a change in chapter?

Why would you change the topic while addressing me, since my only discussion with you is about that one claim?

Look, I'm not going to be the one asking the Obama if he can't take aspirin because he is too proud to pick the cotton out of the bottle. That sort of humor is beneath me. I wouldn't do.
 
There's lies and there is BS.

I was imagining Trump as a birder. Or better yet, Trump and Hillary go birding. They are in the same area but different teams. Trump gets the checklist and checks off all the birds and lights up a cigar, never leaving the parking lot. An hour later the Hillary party comes back. She has checked off all but 5 of the rarest. And she saw a chickadee, a robin and a cardinal, as well as a few woodpeckers. She checked off all woodpeckers.

"Donald, where are your binoculars?" "I left them home. We birded by ear."

And if it is from Ailes or Bannon, I'm sure they are saying, whatever you do, don't you dare bring it up in a debate. Because she is going to pillory him over it. He has to leave it innuendo, and let the public be the ones to be bringing it up about her.

She accuses him of being misogynist, and his thought is to put it on display? When your opponent accuses you of bad behavior, the last thing you want to do is to put it on display to prove them right.

Yeah, I think Hillary actually hopes he is dumb enough to bring it up.

The next debate is a townhall so this could easily blow up in their faces because a voter could ask a question about it. The way he brought it up at the end of the last debate made it seem like that was the only piece of debate prep that sunk in. He wasn't going to score points because there wasn't a question on it (shocking!) and he had avoided bringing it up so he didn't get to show off his restraint. Now we're left with team Donald absurdly going unrestrained in an attempt to get credit for mostly being restrained on it.
 
I've decided that the number one reason to not vote for Trump is that he's stupid.

I know that Trump is a champion liar, a racist, a misogynist and a narcissist. All good reasons not to give him my vote. But I'm convinced that the number one reason to not vote for Trump is that he's stupid. No, I don't mean that he's ignorant about everything except how to cheat people which is also very true. No I mean stupid.

Now Big Dog, Sunmaster etc will probably come to his defense and point out how rich he is and that I'm worth 2000 times less which according to Forbes is true. In my book that means that Trump is at best a an Idiot Savant.

Now why do I call him an idiot? Two reasons, Kahn and Machado. And if Trump loses this election those 2 people may be the reason why. Both are perfect reasons why he's stupid. Anyone with half a brain wouldn't attack Gold Star parents or attack a woman over her weight. (Especially when you need women to vote for you)

And the real karma is that both are immigrants. Ouch.

Which of these two is the simpler explanation?

The Clinton's are so clever that they've committed all these crimes yet teams of investigators with unlimited funds and subpoena power over decades were unable to find anything actually wrong.

Or, the Clinton's do a lot of wheeling and dealing, mixing business and charity and politics but never actually do anything illegal or corrupt and the GOP uses that to generate relentless political propaganda against them.

I personally think it's a close call.

Well that's the very reason not to vote for Clinton.

If he wins he will probably be the stupidest President ever. This is not hyperbole.

He is the healthiest person to ever run for President. I know this because he his doctor said so.

The mic was rigged against him! He never gets sick at all!

I really don't understand it. How hard would it be to say, "Yeah, he has a cold."

Shoot, he could have said it in the debate. "Sorry about the sniffles, I picked up a head cold from one of my staff."

Suddenly, it's sympathy points. But continuing to deny it makes him look goofier.

Colds happen. Just admit it already.

Many people are saying the real reason that he had the sniffles is because he railed a bunch of coke right beforehand.
