the acts Trump bragged about in the video, etc. are crimes of physical sexual assault. The acts in the picture of Franken are not.

Franken was standing over an "actual" woman being photographed as he was about to giver her a grab while she was sleeping...

Trump's victim in your example is imaginary, unless he grabbed Billy Bush....Franken's victim is right there in the photo...

your feigned indignation is hilarious......

what part of "Moore should go to jail" confused you?

regarding Trump and Franken.....it's a continuing theme with the left, far more concerned and offended by what a republican might have said than what their own democrats actually did...that is intellectual dishonesty

"In order to retain any moral authority on the issue of sexual abuse and harassment, Democrats must decide that sexual abuse and harassment is wrong no matter who does it. Only then will they be nominally, morally, better than the Roy Moore acolytes who compare molesting a 14-year-old girl to stealing a lawn mower."

You honestly think Franken was about to grab a sleeping woman's breasts while smiling for the camera? That's ridiculous. It's a photo in poor taste, not groping.

What he did at that time is probably par for the course in the circles he traveled in and I have no doubt he isn't sleeping well knowing he left a photographic record of some lighthearted (to him at that time) fun he was having with a buddy. Throw a dart and you will hit a comedian who makes a living telling and living inappropriate behavior, but that won't translate well into politics......or will it.

wouldn't surprise me....hadn't he recently stuck his tongue in the same woman's mouth(probably just joking around ) causing her disgust?...and then reportedly treated her badly in the aftermath because she didn't respond well to his "probing"....


"When they were alone backstage before the debut, he pressed the reluctant Tweeden to rehearse the smooch. After some awkward protest, she acquiesced. He proceeded, she says, with tongue-plunging force. Humiliated but not wanting to ruin the tour, she did not make a fuss beyond warning him not to pull such a stunt again. Through the remaining two-week tour, she avoided him when possible, and he reacted with “petty insults.”


maybe this was just another of his "petty insults"...caught on film

Let me make it easier for you to understand. Trump bragged about criminal behavior. The victims are the people he groped and forced himself on. The 13+ women who say he did those things to them aren't imaginary.

Yes it is. According to your side, Mike Pences rule about not being alone with a woman other han his wife is sexist, but bill Clinton and Ted Kennedy are solid friends of feminism. That makes all kinds f sense. Of course there is hypocrisy on my side, but not to this degree.

When you talk about "sides" you sound like you're picking a dodge ball team in 3rd grade.

As for Pence, his personal position is a bit dated, perhaps he just doesn't trust himself, but it is certainly somewhat sexist as well.

Should we post the list of fervent anti-LGBTQ folks lawmakers who get caught with members of the same sex(Just happened again in Ohio)? Some of which were occasionally underage? Hell stuff about Schiff is supposedly out there now too...

There is hypocrisy on both sides, and pretty evenly weighted...

I think spence would call it painting a mental picture in bad taste, not actual groping...

if the women you mentioned want to come forward, file charges...sue..etc...I'm ok with that and whatever the courts decide

I would expect Trump to invoke the "one free grope rule" that the dems and feminists created to defend Clinton back in the day...I think that's the same one that Biden operates under
