Happy to tell everything. And he probably has tapes.
OK—so he was crude and ugly in his prime….He was just what you wanted, Trumpy…..Now he’s gonna send you up the river (so to speak). Should have treated your dog better, Agent Orange.

As to Meyer, the lying sac will most likely get off with a slap on the pinkie.
Yes…..well, let’s get real about this, shall we? Nobody is going to get bent out of shape about what he did. Most particularly in Buckeye country. They have already experienced losing a big winner in Tressell, and nobody is throwing a coach with Meyer’s record under the bus, particularly when judged in the rarified air that his teams compete within. You better have some rapist players or wholesale graft involved with the program before you bring that sort of weak tea (failure to reveal that he knew about some questionable behavior by one of his coaches) against Meyers record. Right or wrong, that’s just the way it is. Too much money everywhere to have that flow interrupted by something like that. I'm guessing 3 game suspension here (if that).

TRUMP WORLD
Great week of watching on TRUMP WORLD…..
First of a all the Great Orange Asshole thinks that he has slipped the knife into Omarosa and made a clean getaway—"Gee, Omarosa, I hear that you are leaving us….what happened?" (Only someone as dumb as Trump would have fallen for an explanation like that…) It’s my guess that someone around him mentioned that she was making $180K/year…."What? We’re paying her $180 thousand dollars a year? For what? She doesn’t do anything….Do we need a $180 thousand dollar a year Token? In my opinionI Dr. Carson covers our Token Quotient quite nicely, thank you. Let’s get rid of her…..” “Besides, we can use her slot for someone else….like Tiffany…..she needs a job….”
So Trump has his dupe, Gen. Kelly do the job on her (to Kelly’s huge enjoyment, no doubt…) and it looks like it's a done deal to the Trumpeter. Then, out of nowhere, a big black bat (formerly known as Omarosa) drops down out of the rafters and starts fluttering around his head, getting stuck in his ridiculous hairdo and, in general, ruining Trump’s day completely….
“Who is responsible for this? I told you that we didn’t need any Negroes in the White House. Why the hell do you think that they call it the White House? Of course nobody dared to tell the minotaur that it was his idea to bring Omarosa into the White House. And now, worse than anything, the dumb dog shows that she was paying close attention to the Orange Asshole back in the day….she has recordings from inside the WH!!! “Quick! Get me Rudy! Call Jeff Sessions! Maybe Jeff can have her arrested!….Perhaps Rudy has some friends back in New York that will kill her for the right price….”
Tune in next week as the Trumpeter moves inexorably toward resignation.

Don't Blame Me…I Didn't Vote for the SOB
Yes….I remember those post-Nixon years very well. It was if nobody had voted for Nixon….or at least anybody who would admit to it. It was amazing....he went from a landslide victory to....crickets.

Hey, Red, you should get your "Better Russian than Democrat" shirt.
    Hey—just remember……Red made a point of saying that he did not personally support Trump during and after the election—you know, just in case the Orange Sphincter does take the final dive that everyone expects from him sooner or later, Red will be able to say “Who….me? No way….” Now Kid, on the other hand, is 100% with the Stupid Base—and proud of it!

There is no court case to be resolved.
If people are going to be fired and branded for life then there should be.

Namely that punishment is warranted.
Oh….I don’t know…..this sounds a little like the people who want to try and keep the old time concept of the student/athlete alive, when anyone who is looking at things in a realistic manner knows that the whole concept is only alive today in the movies. Everybody else who want to look at things in the way that they actually are today (particularly at the big-time football schools) knows that that stuff is dead and gone and is never coming back. Money-Money-Money….

The integrity of the University is at stake. If not him then the man above him. Maybe both.
I’ll say once again….Should the university officials be the ones to determine this mans guilt or should it be a court of law? Anything is possible should the only proof be one side’s allegations. At most suspend him until a court case is resolved one way or another.

While sycophants will excuse it as simply lying to the media -- a stupid defense
    Perhaps he felt that it is not his responsibility to dispense justice in this matter. Maybe he is of the opinion that it is the responsibility of the legal system to deal with this situation. It might be that he feels that people are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law, not in the court of public opinion. Maybe he feels that it is not up to him to possibly ruin someones career and/or life until the subject is found guilty in a court of law. Why isn’t this in the purview of the legal system? Go to the police. Present your case. Insist that they press charges against this guy. If that doesn’t work sue him civilly. If he is found guilty by the legal system then it’s the duty of the university (or possibly Myer as the responsible administrator in this area) to fire this guy. Now, obviously, Myer pretty much tried to weasel out of this whole thing when it came to his statements to the press. But I could see how he might feel that this shouldn’t be his responsibility in the first place. Let the legal system dispense justice and if he is found guilty then dismiss him from his position.

Kid lives wrong proudly without the self contempt his words and actions justify.
Yes, of course….he takes his cues from the Orange Asshole…
Shame? Humility? That’s for other people. Apologize? Never, ever! That would be showing weakness, and he is never weak. That’s for losers….

Right now, Liz Warren has to be the DEM front-runner and she's tough and smart.
    Warren would be a great president…..intelligent, compassionate, informed, experienced (all the things Trump is not)…..the only thing I worry about is the woman president thing. A woman president will come sooner or later, but the 2018 and 2020 elections are shaping up to be the most important elections in our history. Many people feel that the whole future of our democratic republic lies in the balance. Donald Trump must be defeated before he turns this country into a right-wing oligarchy, and I’m not sure if we can risk anything new or unknown for 2020. We need the surest, sure thing that we have. Perhaps a strong woman VP candidate at this time (Warren or Kamala Harris?).

And again, why the fuck are you trying to defend that immoral set of actions?
Because nothing is as important as propping up and defending his hero, Donald Trump…..nothing.

While it is very clear from both exit polling and looking at county-level maps that "poor white vote" - or more to the point, those without a college education - voted for Trump aplenty,
    I’m guessing that deep down inside Trump views even his precious ‘base’ with a certain amount of contempt. How else does a con man view his ‘marks’? As suckers, of course. He knows that he sold them a bottle of snake oil, and he probably thinks that they are fools for having bought his pig in a poke. I’m also thinking that this is part of the reason that he despises Obama so much. He knows that millions of Obama fans truly do admire Obama, and that probably chaffes his ass because he knows that if his fans ever discover that he bamboozled them they would turn on him en masse in a New York minute.
