All of us are guilty of having used profanity at times in our life. But JayZ, who campaigned with Hillary Clinton, is a thousand times worse than Trump was in that tape. And, again, Trump was a liberal back then. Christians recognized that he changed. We know that he isn't perfect, but he has a lot of good qualities. And we knew that he wasn't nearly as bad as Clinton whose scandals involved national security and had a lot of evidence against her. And, unlike the surprise Access Hollywood tape, Clinton's scandals were already public knowledge before she became a candidate. The Democrat party made a dumb choice by rigging the primary election for her. And now we have President Trump because of it.

"Trump was a liberal back then". That's about all one needs to read of your post to understand.

Am I a bad person just because I'm a liberal?

He used vulgar language, but what he said is true.

Obama didn't use vulgar language, and what he said was also true. And yet it gets you all in a twist...

BTW, wasn't Trump also married at the time, or was he between trophy wives?

When you have Ted 'Uncle Ped' Nugent campaigning for your side and being rewarded with a visit to the White House, you probably shouldn't complain about Jay Z.

You actually believe that Obama never used vulgar language in his lifetime?

I'm sure Obama used vulgar language in his lifetime.

I do actually believe that Obama never boasted about cheating on his wife with another married woman.

I do actually believe that Obama never boasted that he could sexually assault women and get away with it because of his position.

Trump didn't boast that he could sexually assault a woman. He said that some women throw themselves at celebrities. He was talking about how some women are groupies. You never heard of a groupie?

Are you implying that you meant "his entire lifetime" when you posted he used vulgar language?
The Access Hollywood tape was recorded many years ago and in a private setting, with Trump not being told that there was a microphone there. So if you're going to compare that to Obama fairly you have to include all of Obama's life, including every private moment he has ever had.

That's incorrect.

I can't post the actual quote or link due to forum rules of decency, but he said when he sees attractive women, he doesn't ask permission, he just starts kissing them. He then says, he could grab them by the genitals - you can get away with anything.

He didn't say anything about groupies throwing themselves at celebrities.

Do you believe there's no such thing as a woman who throws herself at celebrities?

Whether groupies who throw themselves at celebrities exist or not is irrelevant. Trump clearly stated in that recorded conversation that he advanced on them, that he could grab them by the genitals, and that "he could get away with it" because of his status.

Not in the quote we're discussing... or are you moving goalposts?
See the following:
