To wonder why the hell a Porn 'Star' who knowingly had sex with a married man is being given air time?

You will be saying sex workers can't get raped next.

I don't think Daniels has ever claimed that she was coerced or raped by Trump GinkyPig, which is the case we are discussing, but carry on with the hysteria!

Whether or not Trump has cheated on his wives is their business. He's not the first President to. It doesn't sound like any of them have been forced to remain married to him, except for poor Melania who is apparently being held hostage according to some reports Hmm.

I personally think its disgusting that this woman has been given celebrity status and air time for an alleged act she was a willing participant in at the time, which was then 'leaked' to media years later BEFORE he became President when there wasn't much interest, accepted a payoff then put it back in the public arena by suing him (who needs to sue to not be bound by an invalid document anyway?) claiming it had ruined her life and affected her daughter's safety.

How important is this story anyway in the great scheme of things?

Just shows how low society has become on top of Love Island and CBB.

We don't know the truth as to whether he had sex with her or not. It's not unheard of for payoffs to happen even if there's no truth in it, if the story teller has a ready audience, a team behind them and a photo of them together.

I'll take the suspicion that I am representing some kind of agency as a compliment Confused. How unbelievable is it that an average person can't have a different view than the majority?

Therr is plenty of evidence thst he has paid off or attempted to pay off women in the past.
The fact that he lied about it to get elected and treats women like dirt and professes to uphold family values that is appaling.

This man has lied and cheated himself into office. He is vile yet you think the woman is at fault
Crack on.

Clandestino · 20/08/2018 15:40

@DiscombobulatedDiane, wow, this is sanctimonious bollocks if I've ever seen one.
So a married man can shag a porn-star, pay her for her silence and then become a POTUS while she's "just" a porn-star, not worthy our respect?

twattymctwatterson · 20/08/2018 15:49

Did you miss the part where he paid her off out of election funds and lied about it? Should Trump not be held to account in any way?

Ironic that you have so much to say about your opinion of a woman earning a living how she chooses but not the man in charge of the biggest superpower in the western world.

Why is that do you think?

Roussette · 20/08/2018 16:03

Just shows how low society has become Exactly and Trump has perpetuated and contributed to that more than anyone.

Of course he had sex with her! He paid her off! He'd hardly be doing that if he didn't would he...

As for her putting it back in the public arena, you're all arse over tit here... she had no choice, the media were on to the story. She didn't talk about it for years. I'm sure if I were her, I would've done exactly the same thing, told my side of the story.

The fact your view is different to the majority might just tell you something.....

pigsDOfly · 20/08/2018 16:06

Can't understand why Trump is still being given 'air time' tbh.

Why is she not a credible witness just because of how she earns her money. Does her choice of career automatically make her a liar?

I can assure you wearing a suit and having a 'respectable' job in government certainly doesn't ensure honesty and integrity, if that's how you think one should judge a credible witness OP.

Idontbelieveinthemoon · 20/08/2018 16:09

I don't think Trump is a cheating arsehole because of CBB or Love Island. I think he was always a dick and now he's in one of the most powerful jobs in the world it's apparent quite what a disgusting person he is. That's important information for the public to know because if you can't live an honourable life can your voting public truly expect you to have any kind of marl compass when it comes to their interests?

Idontbelieveinthemoon · 20/08/2018 16:09
  • moral compass, not marl!

e Porn Star is of course a feminist counterculture hero in this pathetic narrative.

How the fuck have you got feminist hero out of this Hmm

JacquesHammer · 20/08/2018 16:15

I'm uncomfortable with the notion that someone's "choice" of career means they're (a) not a credible witness and (b) not worthy of air time.

Iknowwhoyouare123 · 20/08/2018 16:22

Aw, I got really excited then as I've never met a real life Trump supporter before. Then it turned out you're just a common woman hater. Disappointing.

Jozxyqk · 20/08/2018 16:23

Lets not forget, he's also had the sexual assualt claims of numerous other women quashed. Not sure how many of them he paid off, if any. It rather begs a question why he chose to pay off this particular individual, doesn't it?

Rufustheyawningreindeer · 20/08/2018 16:24

iknow

My dad was a bit of a fan,.,he makes the occasional attempt at support now but even he is struggling

I think it was the dissing the queen bit Grin

Aye ok then hen Hmm

Or maybe she’s just a woman trying to whistle blow and stupid people can’t see past her job.

Menopawsal · 20/08/2018 16:27

So ALL the wankery that Trump has pulled, yet you go in on her?

Here. Have this crusty cervix on me Biscuit.

Rufustheyawningreindeer · 20/08/2018 16:27

I did notice that perking

Two new posters...who'd a thunk it

No, I wouldn't if I were you. Do you heart Trump? Do you generally love sexist, racist, petulant, vindictive, bullying pigs, or does he just have that special pussy-grabbing something?

We get it. You hate women. Or maybe some 'types' of women. You're conveniently ignoring anything that messes with your narrative. You don't want discussion, you just want to push your half-baked, anti-female POV.

What was the point of your thread again, OP?

megletthesecond · 20/08/2018 16:32

Because there's a tiny chance she might be the one to bring down that orange idiot.
She comes across as fairly smart.

NaughtToThreeSadOnions · 20/08/2018 16:32

Why is it the wonans fault??????????????????

What about the married man????

Oh thats right its ok to grab women by the pussy and everything is the womans fault

Ooooooookkkkkkkkaaaaaaayh

ClaryFray · 20/08/2018 16:33

Most porn stars or escorts have sex with married men. How about you demonise him and not her.

Ginkypig · 20/08/2018 16:34

I didn't say that I'm calling attention to your attitude towards sex workers.

I'm saying it wouldn't surprise me that that is the type of thing you would think or say about sex workers, who by the way incase you haven't realised are just women who happen to work in an industry you don't happen to agree with.

You can disagree with the profession but it's unfair to right the women who are in that work off.
