I think part of it is also they're baffled because Trump isn't playing by the rules, there's a dance to these things and they're not used to straight up blatant lies as spin and can't cope with the sheer gaffe volume they're dealing with. In 2012 they had to write explainers about why something Romney said could be construed as a gaffe, here they need explainer-length articles to recount the gently caress ups of a single day.

It's widely believed that putting Kellyanne Conway at the front of his campaign and his two-week "moderation" on immigration were an attempt to soften his image with suburban white college educated women. I'm sure he's said some bullshit about being the best for women or women loving him in the course of his campaign.

Don't these kinds of agreements usually get thrown out of court if they do get taken to that stage?

That's definitely true. Russia has also figured out this: turns out if you have a certain amount of stature you can pretty much blatantly, repeatedly and implausibly lie and 99% of Western Media will still repeat it at the very least for balance, and be extremely vary of calling out the BS in official news reports.

Actually the form says that any Trumpling is allowed to submit their contract dispute to binding arbitration if they so choose. And then they can sue you anyway if they aren't happy with the result.

Trump's MO is basically: don't pay someone - get sued - drag out the court case until that person cannot afford to contest it "But wouldn't just paying the person ultimately be way cheaper" you might ask. Well there's a reason Trump isn't actually that rich.

I had assumed that our newly-ubiquitous fleet of taco trucks would obviously have to be subsidized and would therefore be both a jobs program and an anti-hunger program for those in need as well as being delicious and convenient for those not necessarily in need.
