re: #412 Bass Reeves

The most pitiful thing about the hush money, is that I can’t see the electorate in 2016 being swayed by Trump cheating on another wife. Access Hollywood tape was out, his behavior at Teen USA was out, his known history of marital infidelity was out.

Who at that point is making a decision one way or another based on this? Crap, if he had paid her to have sex in the first place, we might have gotten some traction on the hypocrisy towards sex workers. It’s just such a weird own goal.

I mean…unless the sex was bad. Not kinky, but bad.

It’s not the cheating, it’s the hiding. Not only was the hiding wrong from the POV of not informing the electorate, but it opened him to blackmail.
