Summary
At a North Carolina rally, Donald Trump used aggressive language, questioning if he was “allowed to hit” Michelle Obama after her recent criticism of his values and policies.
Though Trump spoke metaphorically, his comments drew backlash, with analysts calling the remark in poor taste. Trump recounted an imaginary conversation with his staff advising him to tone down his rhetoric, prompting cheers from supporters urging him to “hit back.”
The statement, shared widely on social media, has raised concerns about its impact on the gender gap and support among conservative women voters.
Call it a hunch. But I doubt it would be the first time he’s hit a woman.
I mean he’s been found guilty of raping at least one woman… so he’s easily hit one already.

The part of the book that caused the most controversy concerns Trump’s divorce from his first wife, Ivana. Hurt obtained a copy of her sworn divorce deposition, from 1990, in which she stated that, the previous year, her husband had raped her in a fit of rage. In Hurt’s account, Trump was furious that a “scalp reduction” operation he’d undergone to eliminate a bald spot had been unexpectedly painful. Ivana had recommended the plastic surgeon. In retaliation, Hurt wrote, Trump yanked out a handful of his wife’s hair, and then forced himself on her sexually. Afterward, according to the book, she spent the night locked in a bedroom, crying; in the morning, Trump asked her, “with menacing casualness, ‘Does it hurt?’ ” Trump has denied both the rape allegation and the suggestion that he had a scalp-reduction procedure. Hurt said that the incident, which is detailed in Ivana’s deposition, was confirmed by two of her friends
Would be wild to watch Michelle’s Secret Service detail beat up Donald’s Secret Service detail.
It’d probably be more like:
Michelle’s detail: “Can’t you just tell him to sit down?”
Donald’s detail: “yeah don’t worry about it. we’re used to it by now, skinny Jonas over there can hold him in a seat one handed, just put a big Mac on the table and he’ll forget all about this in like 30 seconds”
Even better is the fact that Trump’s Secret Service detail would likely be… shall we say “less than motivated” to protect their charge
I don’t know about that. Remember that the Secret Service “lost” all their text messages from Jan 6th.
Makes sense. Very few others want anything to do with him in person even in an official capacity.
Already showing us how he wants to protect women.
“He was never nice to the Obamas,” said The Hill opinion writer Tara Dublin. “He also looks & sounds like he died last week but no one wants to tell him.”
Looks, sounds, and by all accounts smells like he died last week.
It’s utterly repulsive to me that, regardless of the elections outcome, this walking shit stain is getting Secret Service protection paid for by the tax payers.
I’m not American, but I feel for you all. As far as I’m concerned, it should be like Witness Protection; if you commit a crime (or are in others ways a total piece of shit) while protected, that protection can and will be removed like they did with Henry Hill when he kept committing crimes.
