Well Obama didn't tell the world that there was no problem with the size of his manhood on national television either. Trump brings it on himself.

The hands thing goes way back, like 25 years ago someone in a satire magazine referred to Trump as a 'short-fingered vulgarian'. After that the author who wrote that said they'd periodically get an envelope from Trump that contained a picture torn from a magazine or somewhere with the hand circled in golden sharpie as if to prove he doesn't have short fingers.

Rubio teased Trump about his hands and if they're small something else must be small during the primaries and Trump responded to that during a debate saying "look at those hands are they small hands" and then there was no problem with the 'something else'.

Apparently there are some scientific studies that confirm a possible correlation between finger size and manhood. It has to do with testosterone levels in the womb affecting both those features (as well as other "masculine' features like facial features).

So, those statues of Trump that appeared a while back might very well be anatomically correct.

The ancient greeks thought big dicks were the quality of the savage.

Could someone give me the Coles Notes version of presidential power - what Trump can and cannot do legally? I'm wondering how many of those promises he made that he can legally fulfill and I don't really follow U.S. politics. For example, can he unilaterally void that free-trade agreement, as well as other things he's said he would do?

I think the general rule follows that you get back from the world what you put into it.

Trump made the rules of conduct, especially concerning women and the media. But I suppose a pretty common feeling is that everyone else should be playing with kid gloves while Trump and the alt-right say what they want.

He can pull out of NAFTA, yes... but only Congress can repeal the laws that were put in place as a result of NAFTA in order to fulfil the US's commitments under the treaty.

attack his behavior and his policies, not his hands.
And putting it in small print is even worse.

Snowflake Trump is in for the worst four years of his life if he can't handle a little media heat and mockery. Because he's about to be the most mocked President in American history. He gave the media the green light to tee off on the mocking when he couldn't take SNL. He's troll bait basically.

Hahahahaha yeah, like Trump is known for sticking to behaviour and policies.

And woof, complaining about font choice too?

It's going to be a very, very tough four years for some people.

Is it worse than using the "she is to ugly for me to sexual assault" defense?

[GirlySports]

i;m just saying it's petty, shows the biasness of the publication

[jayswin]

Girlysports completely dominates this thread, haha. As soon as the discussion dies down from her last "ah shucks I'm just asking" carefully thought out bait towards those opposed to Trump, along comes the next!

[Senator Clay Davis]

That's her schtick in every thread though, not just this one.

So? Not all publications are (or even need to be) unbiased.

It's Vanity Fair. Not the Washington Post. I don't open up GQ for a unbiased look at this month's political happenings.

I think you're confusing publications in general with actual news publications.

[photon]

Biased like tweeting an unflattering photo of your wife's opponent and then saying "he started it"?

It happens with most presidents like most famous people. There's magazine covers with Bush wearing a dunce cap or with huge ears looking like the Mad magazine character.

It's an entertainment magazine, not a news site.

[CorsiHockeyLeague]

The point where Trump becomes a true fascist will be when he starts punishing people for making fun of him.

Just in general, mockery and satire are pretty important tools in a free state. In this case, mockery of how superficial, thin-skinned and easily baited into irrelevancy he is - that's actual, substantive criticism of relevant flaws in his character. It's not petty at all.

Even when we attack his behaviour and policies you defend him and his behaviour.

You did it wrong.

I was just wondering if you might say the same, well, thing if we were to talk about his policies or other behavior, you know? Just asking, because I don't really know, but if you look hard enough, I think I might be giving away how I actually feel. Don't quote me on that.

I think you guys are giving her too much credit by calling her posts carefully thought out.

[Cecil Terwilliger]

I think Girly is a little naive but her posts always came across as well meaning, not trollish or bigoted or ignorant.

I see no problem with anything she's posted. She's creating conversations. So what if she's not typing out a thesis? I never understood why some of her posts enrage people. It seems to happen when she makes crazy NHL rules suggestions. Sure they are totally nuts and unfeasible, but who cares? They are interesting. If you hate it that much just scroll past.
