Being Mexican, a woman, handicapped, or middle eastern shouldn't be a free pass to escape criticism as an individual

true, but dissing or making fun of someone because of their misfortune, gender, or race, especially when you a public person on national television, in rebuttal to their opinion about national policy, is just childish and dickish. i am here, talking to you about my opinion as an adult. im not dissing your intelligence because you dont agree, let alone attacking your gender. this is adult behavior.

Well, you don't have to condone or even like what he says. "Free" country and all right?

true, but as a national spokesperson he is in a position of representing the nation. That position comes before any personal prejudice. Do we need to write it into the Constitution, dont be a dick to people?

..: "district attorneys now have so much influence on grand juries that 'by and large' they could get them to indict a ham sandwich." I think the key here is that Trump wasn't convicted.

and money and position have nothing to do with this? He settled out of court a whole lot for someone who isnt guilty.

You're right by your definition I cant "prove" sexism racism etc. I can just believe that his conduct in crude, unethical and a whole host of other things. Does that make it ok for him to be this way? Any other person would be shouted out of town by peers. That he uses his power and position towards his own ends is, imho, despicable. And to me it doesnt make sense, that in one line you are saying that its not ok for US to be antagonistic assholes in other countries, yet in his own country - oh well its a free country. Double standard.
