If Trump were willing to resign

If

"I love my resignation. It's going to be the best resignation. No one will resign better than me."

[Frumple]

Trump's at least... tweeted, I think, that he won't be resigning regardless as to what happens. Trump being trump, that doesn't mean much, but there you go.

Ohio is silly enough on its own.

No, I believe this one. If there's any rhyme to Trump it's his pride, and conversely his lack of humility. There's no way in hell he would let go of the nom after thrashing O.H.I.O, Jeb!, and the Zodiac Killer. Even if they rip it away from him, I'm certain he'd rather go down in flames.

"Women are to be championed and revered, not objectified." -Paul Ryan

Giving women special treatment because of their gender is just as bad as treating them poorly. People deserve to be judged based on the merits of their character, not what's between their legs. Go fuck yourself Paul Ryan.

"But under no circumstances should they make the same wage as men."

It's just garden variety Conservative Republican gender politics. They put women on a pedestal and then put that pedestal in the back of the room to be talked about and admired from afar.

Trump will deny he ever said it at the debate.

Aw man, Bernie was doing so good staying on message too: http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/300002-sanders-despite-clintons-wall-street-speeches-i-support-dem

So just to be clear saying nice things about women = bad, groping them non-consensually = fine?

To be fair, he's still trying to ensure party unity.

Trump will deny he ever said it at the debate.

It's possible that there will be a question relating to it, yeah. I don't know how far ahead of time the questions have to be submitted by the uncommited voters. Also, Clinton's first response to the tape will apparently happen at the debate.

Trump's at least... tweeted, I think, that he won't be resigning regardless as to what happens. Trump being trump, that doesn't mean much, but there you go.

And in all caps at that.

Context is vital.

Out of context, 'removed from the middle class' and 'need a public and a private position' sound really bad.

In context, they just sound about as thoughtless as you would expect from a speech made in pseudo-private. *shrug*

That is one of the things he is trying to maintain, yes.

Wanting to grope women = normal. So far as I'm aware, Trump has not been accused of actually making unwanted advances on women, just talking about it.

I think you didn't mean to say that the way it's going to read to a lot of us.

[Frumple]

Uh, not like what was recorded, no. I've heard more respect come out of drunk frat boys.

Though yes, he's been accused from several different sources of making unwanted advances.
