Trump Aides Struggle to Defend ‘Sexual’ Kamala Harris Post
“I don’t know if the president even saw the comment that was on there,” Jason Miller suggested, nonsensically.
Trump advisor Jason Miller stopped by CNN This Morning on Thursday, and was left squirming when anchor Kasie Hunt confronted him about Donald Trump’s recent Truth Social post that featured a screenshot of an image of younger Kamala Harris smiling next to Hillary Clinton, with a caption underneath that read, “Funny how blowjobs impacted both their careers differently.”
“What would you say to the vice president of the United States about the comment that [Trump] reposted?” Hunt asked.
“Well, I saw the social media post,” Miller replied. “I have not discussed that with the president. I don’t know if the president even saw the comment that was on there or simply the picture.”
Miller then quickly pivoted to accuse Democrats of attacking Trump with even more vitriol, telling Hunt, “The attacks that have been levied by Kamala Harris’ campaign and by Harris’ allies against President Trump — not just recently but over the past year and a half, two years, ever since he came down the escalator, quite frankly—in the case of many leftist-centered people, have been quite horrific.”
Hunt asked Miller if he thought the criticisms against Trump have been “as horrific” as the image Trump had reposted. Miller replied, “Oh, a hundred times worse.”
“But they haven’t been sexual in nature in this way,” Hunt pointed out.
“Again, I haven’t discussed that with the president,” Miller said. “I don’t know if the president even saw the comment that was on there. That’s not something that I have asked.”

Woah, that’s a big one. He’s just flushing his campaign down the toilet. I love it.
It seems like every other day, Trump does something that would have been absolutely career-ending for anyone else. I think he's kept his campaign from going down the toilet by just making sure it was completely clogged.
Trump operates by slowly moving the bar. He incrementally pushes the boundaries of acceptability, to the point that now nothing is surprising anymore. As a result, he can do these things that should be career ending, because his supporters laugh it off and his detractors, disgusted as they may be, still expect this behavior from Trump.

My own mother "chose" to believe misleading Fox stats on officer-involved shootings after I did a web search and provided a much higher number. She said that. "I'm choosing to believe…". You don't need to convince me of how much people will delude themselves.
It takes courage to accept you've been conned by a Weird Grifter from New York.
the person who said that to me is an intelligent, educated woman. But her partisan lean is so heavy she just accepts stuff like that.
Kind of an oxymoron.

I don't claim to be any exception. I'd just stueggule to call someone that répands that way "smart" without adding any qualifiers.

Hey man, I'm sorry, I was speaking more broadly about the type of person, rather than the specific individual, and I do need to work on my black-and-white thinking. Absolutely nothing to do with being a woman, the comment actually reminded me of a man in my life with similar views and I've had to come to the conclusion that I should value his opinions less.
Edit: also, I'd hardly call my two short comments (one I clearly didn't proofread) a "lecture".
A lot of smart people hold a lot of wrong/bad ideas.
That's a concept I've had difficulty wrestling with

Yeah, but Trump famously needs to flush eight or ten times to actually get anything to go down the toilet.
Those gold toilets must be real crap.
