"What Happend to Her Husband?"

[variant]

It’s worse. He’s alluding to rumors that she had an affair. I don’t understand the need to attack someone who is trailing by 30 points in her home state.

Trump taunts Nikki Haley about alleged affair as things get ugly in GOP race - Times of India

US News: Former President Donald Trump's denigration of Nikki Haley and women, as well as his disdain for military service, does not seem to affect his support

I think the appeal is that he gets to do and say whatever he wishes without any real consequences from his mass of followers.

I saw to way too many attacks on Donald's wife and even his minor child to take a lot of the left's sanctimonious indignation too seriously. Especially when it's usually seasoned with 'anyone who doesn't go along with us is a total scumbag'.

There were very few "attacks" on that minor child during or after Trump's term. What ones there that did happen were quickly admonished and no sustained attack existed. (At this point, I have no idea if he is still a minor since I don't care one thing about him.)

The wife, on the other hand, is not some "innocent". She was right there with him in the pre-campaign birtherism. Despite the caim in his published "Valentine to Melania" (actually a fundraising email), she has not been by his side through his recent trevails, but rather has been absent from all of his public appearances (save her mother's funeral) for many months.

Yes, a man that said that busing would turn schools into racial jungles is much more appealing

Are you going to go with "let's stoop to their level" with Trump's attack on Major Haley?

 

[ozso]

Took longer than normal for someone to come to the former presidents defense.

Probably because it's such a worn out routine.

No I'm going with I saw to way too many attacks on Trump's wife to take the sanctimonious indignation too seriously.

Also what was the attack again? "where's her husband?"?. I'm surprised I can actually post such a salacious quote without getting banned

 

[rambot]

This being blown so out of proportion is why so many just roll their eyes at it.

That's what I call hyperbole.

You hang around toxic people if you think this is appropriate behaviour for a leader.

People spewing vitriolic bile over how toxic others are supposed to be, doesn't really make much of an impact.

I don't find Mrs. Trump to be of enough importance to attack. She is a non-entity.

You have higher standards than Cardi B. I can’t post what she said about Mrs. Trump or even explain it here

People spewing vitriolic bile .

It's vitriolic bile to remind folks what Trump has done and said?

I don't care about Cardi B. or Melania T. Neither are important to me in the slightest.

Twitter didn’t care either

 

[Hans Blaster]

Twitter didn’t care either

"Twitter" the company, or "Twitter" the user base?

 

[BPPLEE]

"Twitter" the company, or "Twitter" the user base?

Twitter the company said the comments and the nude photos that Cardi B posted didn’t violate their rules and refused to take them down. I can’t post links because they make reference to the title of one of Cardi B’s songs which is 3 letters that stand for something that can’t be posted here

I bet if I said something like that about Major Haley folks would go ballistic.

By saying insulting things to and about them? You betcha.

 

[rambot]

And why don't you address his actions?

 

[ozso]

And why don't you address his actions?

Because I prefer to address the reactions.
