That's where the OBVIOUS lie is. I grew up in the 80s so I know it's impossible to party and get drunk without "sexually assaulting" girls. The problem is the definitiion of sexual assault in 2010s is not the same as sexually assault in the 1980s. Pinning a girl to the wall at a drunken party was not termed sexually assault in the 80s. If you Look at all the teenage comedies we watched and enjoyed in the 80s, you will scream sexual abuse today. Go and watch all the national lampoon films.
Are you even listening to yourself? Is it mandatory that all people that got drunk at some points must be involved in sexual assaults? Does it ever occur to you that you can be drunk in a place where there are no ladies? Your excuses of being drunk in the 80s lack substance and just don't hold water in reality. You can be drunk without touching or insurting a woman, just the same way someone can be high on drugs and still tell someone else he is not fit to drive.

Did you read what I said at all? I said teen parties in the 80s were wild. Boys get drunk and do all sorts of things with girls. Even the girls were not innocent.

I said pinning girls to a wall and kissing her or even grabbing some sensitive parts were not considered sexual assault then. It was all a game then, girls play hard to get and guys try to show machoness. Except the girls were raped they didn't make any issue of out it.

Lots of popular teenage movies then showed wild teenage parties featuring drinks, drugs and what will be considered today as sexual assault. Popular groups such as 2 live crew sang lyrics that would be considered as promoting sexual assault of women then.

Attitude towards sex and even unwanted touching of women only started to change in the 2010s.

It was only recently that any unpermitted touching of any part of a woman is considered sexual assault. Now you can be accused of raping your wife.

I am certain that even Dr. Ford did not see it as a big deal then, as I am sure she too must have drank some alcohol and attended a few wild parties where guys "sexually assaulted" her. She did not mention it for years. I am sure she is bringing it up now probably because of promptings from Democrats to scuttle Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation. She did not bring up the case all these years as Kavanaugh climbed up the judicial ladder.

I remember a few wild parties my friends and I organized then.

Unemployment rate falls to 3.7 percent, lowest since 1969. Trump is doing a terrific job on the economy, this is the lowest unemployment rate in forty nine years.
These are the facts that matter not all the drama the liberal media and politicians are engaged in

I know all about Hitler and Trump is nothing like Hitler, Trump is not racist, And there is nothing wrong with an American President putting America first
You are wrong, putting America first without considering other nation's interests eventually leads war.
Putting ones nations interest first above all other interests was what led to so many wars in history. Subduing to some extent your own interests in the interest of all is what led to the planet having its most peaceful period in the history of mankind.

If Trump breaks down that tradition formed after WW2 and promote every nation for itself, then we will be back to our ignoble past.

America might feel so powerful now and feel it can impose it's interests on everyone, but power does not reside with one nation forever.

"You're a rapist."

"No, I'm not."

"Actually you're a drunken rapist exhibitionist pervert."

"No, that's not true."

"Actually you're the ring leader and mastermind of a roving mob of violent serial gang rapists."

"PLEASE STOP THIS!"

"OMG YOUR TEMPERAMENT IS TERRIBLE!!!"

Another wrong conclusion from you, Trump has not said he doesn't consider other nations interests too, all he is saying is that America's interest will be his number one priority and that's what every President should do. I wouldn't be happy if the president of my country put other country's interest above my country's interest. My country's interest should be my president's number one priority

No one is saying a president should not consider his country's interest as a priority, what I am telling you is that you cannot discount other countries interest too. For example if the US does not consider Mexico's interest and Mexico becomes unstable, it will have grave consequences for US interests.

If he disregards china's interests as he doing and starts all sorts of unnecessary conflicts, it will have grave consequences for US interests in North Korea and the world at large.

Interests are like an equilibrium, you strike the most optimal balance between your interests and the interests of your friends and allies.

Now tell me why Trump is angry at China for protecting it's interest by imposing tariffs on US agricultural products, when trumps is protecting the US interest by imposing tariffs on Chinese goods?

Educating these plumb is hard work, funny none of them live in the USA. The US residents on this thread are all anti Trump. One wonder why Africa is in a sorry state. With mindset like that of these irritants, Africa and the black race have a very long way to go.

Personally, I think only those born after 2007 who aren't aware of the dire state the entire world was in would believe this. Just as it's naive to give credit for the economic state that America is in today to Trump in my opinion. If such people were farmers, they'd be putting seeds in the ground tomorrow for the harvest they reaped yesterday.

The same way the US has interest in the Persian Gulf (US navy 5th fleet), the same way the US has interest in Niger (airforce drone based in Agadez), the same way the US showed interest in the Gulf of Guinea (they were refused a based here by the Obasanjo regime).

The US has numerous interests around the world.
