Pay no attention to the man behind the screen.

88 felony indictments and a number of huge civil judgements are just "crap?" I thought you folks were the law and order party and railed against moral relativism.

Anyway, I just wanted to know where you're coming from after your absence so I know whether to attribute good faith to any of your arguments. So far, I think not.

Can you please point me to anything that confirms a felony rape conviction? Please include the duration of sentence and where time was served?

It's a civil conviction. No jail time, but you know that. The presiding judge said by the rule of the law his assault could not bring a conviction for rape but for all intents and purposes it was rape.

Who said the rape was a felony? Not me. You really can’t read, can you?

For your 4th grade comprehension level:

1. Donny is a convicted felon
and
2. Donny is a rapist

FWIW the felony is the election interference case (commonly referred to as the hush money case) and the sentence for that conviction will be handed down shortly.

He was found in a court of law to have committed sexual assault (specifically, forced digital penetration) and this behavior, in the words of the presiding judge, was rape. He said “The finding that Ms. Carroll failed to prove that she was ‘raped’ within the meaning of the New York Penal Law does not mean that she failed to prove that Mr. Trump ‘raped’ her as many people commonly understand the word ‘rape,.’ Indeed, as the evidence at trial recounted below makes clear, the jury found that Mr. Trump in fact did exactly that. Moreover, we all saw that Trump bragged proudly to Billy Bush about this very behavior (grabbing women by the pussy).

Is this really the hill you want to die on, defending a proven sexual predator who brags about it (and who was characterized by the presiding judge as a rapist)? How far the party of "personal responsibility," "law and order" and "character counts" has fallen. What's next? Defending a guy who paid hush money to a porn star while his wife was home with a newborn son, tried to steal an election (first by fraud, then by violence) and who stole and revealed our nation's most closely-guarded secrets?

You're showing some real Ted Cruz energy. He once said “Donald Trump is a serial philanderer, and he boasts about it. This is not a secret. He’s proud of being a serial philanderer.” Now he adamantly defends each and every Trump transgression.

After all we have learned about Trump's fraudulent, corrupt and criminal behavior and general lawlessness, not to mention his praise for and desire to become an autocrat, my tolerance for Trump apologists is admittedly very low.
