Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

I feel like there's a certain implication being made when you talk about a white woman being 'schlonged' by a black man. Doubly so when Donald Trump is the one doing the talking.

Yeah: You can't win an election with (charitably) 20% of the vote, and he's noxious enough that I suspect he would harm general GOP turnout. Even if a lot of them would hold their nose to support him in favor of - SHUDDER - a Demmycrat, they don't have room to lose constituents on the national level.

I sure he did and you can argue that thats sexist but people are gonna argue back and thats kinda the problem with this attack line, it causes a divisive discussion over a insignificant comment that wouldnt even be noticed in another context. An argument over the sexist implications of the word "shlonged" might get some liberals excited but its a total loser with most people and making it a national news story makes Hillary look weak by proxy.

I'ma tell you, he means to say or do anything that will keep his big orange face on headlines and news tickers, and whatever definition he used is gonna drive yall mad cuz you'll never know, unless you take the easy media route and call him a misogynist

which gets him more headlines and some super easy counters to media incompetence

So...

One of the names on everyone's GOP VP shortlist is New Mexico Governor Susana Martinez. Conservative, woman, Hispanic...what more could you want?

Maybe a woman who doesn't throw a Christmas party so raucous that the cops get called and then, visibly and audibly drunk, tries to explain herself to the cops?

http://nmpoliticalreport.com/24199/in-new-audio-officer-security-guard-say-martinez-was-inebriated/

Please, please, for your own sake, click on this link and then listen to the three minute audio sample. It's every drunken party host explaining to the cops that they aren't that loud, except it's the governor of New Mexico.

If there's one thing this election has done, its raise the bar for what we accept from our candidates. Remeber when Donald Trump mocked a physically handicapped man? Or implied that Megyn Kelly was PMSing..or how about the fact that he's twice divorced and cheated on at least 1 of his wives?
It's not just Trump either...Ben Carson actively tried to convince us he did in fact stab a close relative and attack his mother with a hammer.

A governor getting drunk and loud at a Christmas party in a hotel is downright tame. I think part of is that the Facebook generation that put all the stupid antics of their early 20's on the internet to see, is now voting en masse.

Trump does all his rallies freestyle, more of a stream-of-conciousness than a speech. I think it's much more likely that he just kind of rambled out the 'schlonged' bit without really thinking about it, at least not nearly as much as everyone in the media and this thread seem to be.

Funny how he kind of sneaks it into the middle there. "She was going to beat, she was favored to win, and then... she got - schlonged, she lost, I mean she lost." Accelerating as he comes out of it.

It is absolutely not going to hurt Trump in the primary, if ever. I'm personally not 'offended' by it; I don't know what it would take for Trump to actually shock me, at this point. But it seemed silly to ignore the message in what he's saying. It's not even subtext! It's just text.

I mean, it's always possible. But it fits his goals so well that I'm skeptical.

It makes his base happy, it gets him another media cycle (= better polls), it's winning all the way down for Trump. He can't be stumped!

That brings up another good point. After the "blood coming out of her whatever", we're supposed to be pointing to the schlongening as the reason why Trump's a misogynist?
