Donald Trump shares horribly sexist tweet: 'Hillary Clinton Can't Satisfy Her Husband'

Trump Lets His Followers Know 'Hillary Clinton Can't Satisfy Her Husband'
TPM, APRIL 17, 2015

Real estate mogul Donald Trump might want to check whatever reflex makes him compulsively retweet his supporters' #Trump2016 messages.

The potential presidential hopeful on Thursday shared a fan's tweet that read "If Hillary Clinton can't satisfy her husband what makes her think she can satisfy America?"

Trump deleted the tweet, but not before actor Lenny Jacobson got a screenshot of it:

His second wife, Marla Maples, cheated on him with her bodyguard!! So, if she had been "satisfied" at home, why did she stray? His 3rd wife looks like a plastic blow up doll. So much plastic, so little genuine woman. Maybe that is what he likes, plastic women with no mind of their own?

But the sexism directed at HRC is not, for me, a compelling argument to support her.

And yes, some people seem to think it is.

vile about anyone. I would condemn him without reservation for saying that about Palin, Bachmann, anyone no matter how despicable they themselves might also be.
When a bigot is shouting slurs at a minority person, one does not take a moment to ponder the politics of their target, one simply stands up to the bully.

and most any workplace show where a woman and man work together and unwanted touching was normal then but would get you fired for sexual harassment today.

Also more subtle stuff along gender roles for who should do what sort of work. In the past it would be men protecting women. But more recent shows will show women protecting men. Or the woman would be the badass crimefighter while her husband is a schoolteacher and blissfully unaware of her kill count (The Blacklist), and there are more female villains now(Once Upon a Time, Homeland).

Some recent shows that are set in the past even show how gender roles allowed female villains to fly under the radar. (Foyle's War)

I can't remember which show or movie it was, but they clearly had a woman who they thought was a victim turn out to be the mastermind behind it all.

or any of the many virtues humans pretend to admire.
One thing about a Republican primary. The lack of intelligence, compassion, empathy is on display for all to see. Their greed, ego and gluttony for stuff is also on display. Americans profess to hate people like that because of their religions, yet nearly half vote for them without thinking.

BTW - how many times has old Donald been married? Did he not satisfy his partners?

brought the closet racists out, big time, Hillary will bring out the sexists, big time. That's not a bad thing in my book. America will have to choose between sanity and RW, tea drinking insanity and death, again. I'm glad Obama got elected and will be happy when Hillary gets elected. We can continue to show the world just what we're all about and that is, in the face of total misogynistic, racist RW idiots like trump et al, sanity can win out, still, in america. I'm sure. No matter what the pundits may say, no matter what the RW poison deliverers may, no matter what the LW naysayers may say in the upcoming political chaos, HILLARY WILL WIN. I'm promising myself to stick with that certainty through it all....

There is no turning back to this procedure, once done.. it is forever. That is who you are and you must be taken in the same way that people take the comments coming out of the mouth of a blithering idiot...........................

Sat Apr 18, 2015, 10:10 AM
Apr 2015

"Thirty years ago, on its opening day in 1984, Donald Trump stood in a dark topcoat on the casino floor at Atlantic City’s Trump Plaza, celebrating his new investment as the finest building in Atlantic City and possibly the nation.

Last week, the Trump Plaza folded and the Trump Taj Mahal filed for bankruptcy, leaving some 1,000 employees without jobs.

Trump, meanwhile, was on twitter claiming he had “nothing to do with Atlantic City,” and praising himself for his “great timing” in getting out of the investment."
