will give him a pass on this like everything else.

Their hatred for women who have sex without permission and all non str8t people and all non W people is all that matters.

By a search of newspaper archives, or the wayback machine, even. I can't do it; I'm at lunch and have to return to work in a few minutes. I'm sure someone will have it by the time I get home tonight!

By MICHAEL KRUSE September 10, 2016

Hours after terrorists piloted hijacked jets into the World Trade Center’s twin towers, Donald Trump agreed to do a live phone interview on local television in New York ...
