    It isn't actually 'we.' The vast majority of Democrats did not vote for Trump, won't in 2020 and don't support him now.

    Only 9% of Democrats who voted in 2016 voted for Trump. http://www.bbc.com/news/election-us-2016-37922587

    "Just 8 percent of Democrats approve of the job Trump is doing..." http://www.newsweek.com/trump-approval-rating-democrats-poll-679613

    And BTW, anyone who actually believes Trump will be re-elected in 2020 is really living in la la land.

    He lied about a consensual affair with an adult woman who sought out the affair with him, who said before she left for Washington that she was going to seek an affair with him. There was no sexual harrassment on his part. Studies show that 50- 60% of men have affairs outside of marriage; any one of them would lie about it.

    NOt what I'm talking about. Sorry it didn't surprise me at all when another leftist proved to be serial assaulter. Then again at this rate, there won't be any male liberals left out in public life.

    Don't defend Trump. Don't defend Cohen. Don't defend Edwards. Don't defend Clinton.

    America is ill, and working with people like them sickens all of our civic virtue.

    Most of the RW Nuts I know don't see why MEN. are slammed for sexual misconduct. They still hold the old "men first" line.

    Gee, I'm overwhelmed by that detailed rebuttal. Edwards won his case for the very reason I mentioned. He proved to the court that expenses related to having a mistress would have been incurred regardless of his candidacy. That is the case Rudy is trying to make. Unfortunately for Rudy, he acknowledged on national TV the problematic nature of Stormy revealing details of the affair just weeks before the election. Which is obviously why she was paid off when she was paid off.

    As for this comment..........."Your 18 women most of whom disappeared right after the election, and most of whose stories didn't add up."............either you are ignorant of the facts or you are lying.

    BS. Learn to live with the results of the left's fifty year love affair with redefining indecency and perversion. You decided there was nothing Wrong with that behavior when Clinton did it now you hate that Trump did the same damn thing only on a lesser scale. If you had no problem with Bill Clinton's bj in the Oval Office, then you have no reason to be upset about Trumps one night stand, assuming you choose to believe Stormy, 12 years ago.

    No where did I say any of this, nor do I believe any what you said.

    Maybe those people you are observing are seeing the benefits Trump has been bringing to the country?

    We shall see. Trumps approval rating is growing, so using him as a piñata for campaigns to bash repubs might not work well.

    garyd, yes, you would, rightist or leftist or centrist, yes, you would. Your denail is meaningless. Edwards was wrong. Trump is wrong. Cohen is wrong.

    It is time to clean both parties from bottom up.

    No, Trump's approval is not growing, except in the two polls that prove the exception to the proof of their other ten.

    Does not matter, Tim. The wave has been building steadily since last summer. It is only growing, not diminishing. The small back washes are evened out and forced forward by the surge.

    There isn't a host of others. Who are all these others? Jones went on to pose for Playboy. A woman who has actually been assaulted does not become a media whore and pose for Playboy. What she wants is anonimity, not to put herself out for the whole world to talk about. She hides, she doesn't display herself to all the men in the world. So I don't believe her. Broderick recanted her story. She had mental issues. So I doubt her story. There are no others.

    292. Mindy Kaling, "And sometimes she gets to make those people a little uncomfortable, too. "When I'm rolling around and making out with someone, in my experience, I don't do that that often where I'm not saying something like, 'I love you,' to them," she said of her real-life experiences. "So it's very hard. I have to not say (that) ... to the actor I'm doing that with, cause it really creeps them out."

    But that's not the only thing that creeps out her on-screen partners.

    "When you kiss in real life, when you are feeling passionate, you use your tongue," she said. "But on TV, you're not supposed to use your tongue. You fake it."

    Sure you're not supposed to, but Kaling admits she sometimes forgets that all-important tongue rule.

    "Yeah, and when I do it on the show now, it's like the worse kind of sexual harassment because I'm like the boss," she joked. "And they're scared to complain because I'll fire them."

    Now Schneiderman is facing a reckoning of his own. As his prominence as a voice against sexual misconduct has risen, so, too, has the distress of four women with whom he has had romantic relationships or encounters. They accuse Schneiderman of having subjected them to nonconsensual physical violence."
