TRUMP: Hillary more offensive

It’s enough to remind one of the bad ol’ days of the Soviet Union and their “news” medium Pravda — “Truth.”

All day, every day we are regaled with stories — some even true — of the horrors of Donald Trump. The most popular subject currently is the (admittedly) inappropriate language he used in a conversation with another man. Having spent time in a locker room and in the Army in days of yore, I was probably less shocked than the delicate sensibilities of the pure hearts in the media. I’d bet the vast majority of men have engaged in such behavior at some time or other. We should remember, however, that women have fought the good fight to be just as crude — equal rights, you know. Why, a whole genre of speech covers their inappropriate language — it’s called “girl talk” and many honest women have admitted that it often makes men sound like beginners. All the while women are typically referred to as “ladies” and the only time you hear the term “gentlemen” is when a police chief somewhere refers to a savage criminal as one such.

So let’s not wax all melodramatic and offended about Trump’s SPEECH while being mostly silent about The Hillary’s ACTIONS. You know — those that leave a trail of dead bodies in north Africa, across the Middle East and, let’s not forget, in the political world among those who dare to cross her and are found mysteriously expired. Her felonies are covered up or ignored and the ever vigilant media can’t be bothered to point the finger at her. I can only hope enough American voters, the legal living ones, aren’t as stupid as Barrack Hussein’s Obamacare designer told us they are — again.
