Good evening Comrade! How are thing in mother Russia today?
Lie Detector tests are literally useless. INDEPENDENT studies hold that lie detector tests are not particularly accurate, and some studies have found they are no more reliable that flipping a coin. The National Academy of Sciences states that there is "little basis for the expectation that a polygraph test could have extremely high accuracy"...and even the U.S. Government tests concluded that "The few Government-sponsored scientific research reports on polygraph validity (as opposed to its utility), especially those focusing on the screening of applicants for employment, indicate that the polygraph is neither scientifically valid nor especially effective beyond its ability to generate admissions"
And just a reminder. Marion Jones passed a polygraph with flying colors claiming she never took PEDs...

Remember................If you believe it, its not a lie.
During the Clinton Lewinsky thing we were all told by the Dems that these type of shenanigans were private matters between the man, his wife, and the sly piece on the side. This was none of our business, anyone upset about it was just an old fuddy duddy pearl clutching church lady. "In Europe powerful men have mistress and it's just accepted!..." I heard that jewel more than once. Another good one was "Powerful men have powerful appetites." I really liked that one because it takes a negative (leader of the free world going after 20 year old interns) and makes it into a positive. That is just great spin.
Now with Trump we are all supposed to be surprised that a guy that was a NYC billionaire- reality TV star partied with porn stars, models, and actresses?
Who's the pearl clurtcher now?
(I did not vote for DT, but I honestly DNGAF who he's banged.)
Well, now its an issue because its Trump. Personally I could care less.............its really an issue between him and his wife, but because its Trump, all the snowflakes have their panties in a bunch, and the liberal media are gleeful about it. Unlike with Billy boy, who could do no wrong. Nothing like being a hypocrite, when it suits your narrative. Maybe, since the collusion narrative has fallen apart, he can be impeached because he's a womanizer. Because you do realize that no other President or politician (or any of the holier than thou males on LRC for that matter) in the history of the world have done anything like that.
I don't think the sex/affair is the real issue at all.
It is more the NDA suggesting he is a guy who sets himself up for blackmail.
This, the set up for blackmail, was how Flynn first came to trouble

That's the real point. The fact that Trump was paying hush money would be enough to keep him from getting a security clearance with the US government if he wasn't president because it shows he is someone who can be manipulated and blackmailed.
Who else has something on him? What other scandals is Trump afraid of coming out? Who else has he paid off? If he disclosed his taxes would it show large financial obligations to Russian oligarchs, Saudis, etc. that are affecting his official decisions?

Well you clearly care because you are a Trump supporter. I am not and I don't care about where he puts his schveedle and it would be a lot less of an issue, if not no issue at all, had his attorney not....completely unbeknownst to Trump....paid $130k to the woman to keep her mouth shut and then go through various maneuvers to cover that up as well.
That's what gave this story legs.

Perhaps he should just relent and give her the cabinet post she so obviously wants. I wonder what ol Billy boy "gave" ML (not counting the stain on her dress)?

Marked
Did the guy from the Maury Show do it? I only trust him.
The "set up for blackmail" was brought up during the Clinton scandel too, and it was also given as an excuse for the press ignoring JFKs indulgences. Again, it was dismissed.
The simple fact is that none of that matters. The ONLY thing that matters to anyone is whether the person has a R or a D after their name. If it's "your guy" you make excuses, defend, if not you attack. If Trump were Donald Trump D- NYC then we'd this would just be Clintonian denials version 2018 from the Dems and the Rs would be playing the part of Torquemada.
I really don't understand the big deal...he basically paid a woman to keep quiet about sex, but she has sex for money for a living. Porn stars are basically glorified prostitutes and now we're putting them on a pedestal because they're giving us a reason to talk bad about Trump.

The whole point of having someone sign an NDA is so they'll keep quite about what happened not about what didn't happen.
I think most people at this stage know Donald Trump has had numerous affairs. Some might care, some might care if he is still having them, and some might be worried about some sort of blackmail angle which I don't really get in this case if this was 12 years ago and already out there.
That's separate from campaign finance.
I definitely did not think she was lying. He has 5 children from 3 different women (that we know of), and his ego is beyond anything I have ever even heard about. He has said and done things that are public knowledge that show he is a creep, so of course he had an affair with her (and McDougal and maybe others) while he had an infant son at home.
I would add though that anyone who tries to hide the truth with an NDA and/or payout would be blackmail-able. Doesn't matter that it was 12 years ago.
I think of all the possible bad things that a person might be charged with, and I can only think of three things so far that we haven't had any credible evidence of with Trump (perhaps there are more):
Pedophilia (though some say there is evidence of that)
Beastiality
Murder
He is such a low-character person that we have to look at those bottom-of-the-barrel things as the only remaining things he might not have done.
Kinda like JFK and in addition, his low life brother Teddy?
Both being liberal media darlings at the time, and still looked up to.
