The 7 dumbest arguments in defense of Trump

Donald Trump is headed for a colossal loss, but his defenders seem oblivious to the demise of their own credibility, to the extent they still have any. It’s remarkable people are making such horrifically awful arguments in his defense:

1. Why didn’t these women come forward sooner? This is classic blaming the victim.

2. But you didn’t believe Bill Clinton’s accusers. Bill is not on the ballot, and if he were, you’d still be morally obligated to denounce and drop support for Trump.

3. But Hillary. . . ? The knee-jerk reaction that Hillary “destroyed” the women who accused Bill is not substantiated by the facts.

4. It doesn’t matter if Trump abused women. This was the Jerry Falwell Jr. argument, which is a moral obscenity.

5. Trump is threatening to sue over the allegations so he’s entitled to the benefit of the doubt. This is not a court; it’s an election. Moreover, Trump usually threatens litigation when people say things he doesn’t like.

6. We should forgive him. ...frankly, if we are supposed to forgive everyone, why not Bill and Hillary?

7. You’re just for Hillary. Actually, we and many Republicans were for anyone but Trump.

Hmm, Bill Clinton will be part of a HRC administration and will have far greater access to her than anybody else. So I can't see how anybody can say he is not running for election, he is and it is disingenuous to deny it. She even said herself that Bill would taking care of business in her admin. As for the women coming forward now, it does rather stretch credulity that they have chosen to come forward at this particular time. I have told you before about how many investigations/witch-hunts have been instigated over here using witnesses that were either mentally ill or just plain bad. I refer you to the case of Cliff Richard, he is just one amongst many that the police pursued over years. He is now suing both the BBC and South Yorkshire police and I hope he wins.

Clinton supporters struggle with being undisingenuous when it comes to their low-road attacks on Trump. The democrats are the party of virtue and everything that is good and pure.

What a joke lol. Trump's best hope may be that something happens that will wake the electorate up and/or put Pussy Gate on the back burner where it belongs.

Because Hillary loses on the issues. Trump's made many mistakes in this campaign; perhaps the most costly, was not sticking to the high road after he made his apology for the eleven year old comment. If the American people can forgive Bill Clinton for using his intern's pussy for a humidor and then lying about it, surely, they could forgive Trump for boasting that he can grab one.

But he chose to get down and dirty instead. When he should have pivoted straight to one of a dozen issues Hillary is vulnerable on.

It may have cost him an election.

consentual asshole



he also left us a great economy


your fucks left nothing but failure
 
This is pretty easy to explain most voters:

1) why are you voting for Hillary? She's not Trump

2) why are you voting for Donald? He's not Hillary

3) both sides: Supreme Court


For example, look how many articles liberals post about Trump here and how few about Clinton. It's all about being against your opponent not for your candidate

Early 1980s recession
July 1981*–
Nov 1982
1 year
4 months
1 year
10.8%
(Nov 1982)
−2.7%
The Iranian Revolution sharply increased the price of oil around the world in 1979, causing the 1979 energy crisis. This was caused by the new regime in power in Iran, which exported oil at inconsistent intervals and at a lower volume, forcing prices up. Tight monetary policy in the United States to control inflation led to another recession. The changes were made largely because of inflation carried over from the previous decade because of the 1973 oil crisis and the 1979 energy crisis.[41][42]
Early 1990s recession in the United States
July 1990*–
Mar 1991
8 months
7 years
8 months
7.8%
(June 1992)
−1.4%
After the lengthy peacetime expansion of the 1980s, inflation began to increase and the Federal Reserve responded by raising interest rates from 1986 to 1989. This weakened but did not stop growth, but some combination of the subsequent 1990 oil price shock, the debt accumulation of the 1980s, and growing consumer pessimism combined with the weakened economy to produce a brief recession.[43][44][45]
Early 2000s recession
March 2001–Nov 2001
8 months
10 years
6.3%
(June 2003)
−0.3%
The 1990s were the longest period of growth in American history. The collapse of the speculative dot-com bubble, a fall in business outlays and investments, and the September 11th attacks,[46] brought the decade of growth to an end. Despite these major shocks, the recession was brief and shallow.[47]
Great Recession
Dec 2007 – June 2009[48][49]
1 year
6 months
6 years
1 month
10.0%
(October 2009)[50]
−5.1%[51]
The subprime mortgage crisis led to the collapse of the United States housing bubble. Falling housing-related assets contributed to a global financial crisis, even as oil and food prices soared. The crisis led to the failure or collapse of many of the United States' largest financial institutions: Bear Stearns, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Lehman Brothers, Citi Bank and AIG, as well as a crisis in the automobile industry. The government responded with an unprecedented $700 billion bank bailout and $787 billion fiscal stimulus package. The National Bureau of Economic Research declared the end of this recession over a year after the end date.[52] The Dow Jones Industrial Average (Dow) finally reached its lowest point on March 9, 2009.[53]
