Doesn’t Matter Who Wins the K Race; We’re All the Same

Agreed. But if Kraft is getting hand jobs, who else in that circle is too?

It absolutely does, via impeachment.

I hope the spa kept good records.

Well, in fairness, development work does require exposure to some folks with slightly less than sterling reputations. Particularly in decades past.

But even assuming he likes to hang with goodfellas, a hand job magnate? WTF?

Then again, the couple people I know who are members at Mar a Lago are seriously cheesy and weird, so perhaps it's not unexpected.

Michael Wolfe should have done a book on that club rather than the White House. The shit that goes in in there must be amazing.

And electronic, not a hard copy book

Um, we were both taking about criminal prosecution.

I'm not sure that's a high crime or misdemeanor, but I also can't be certain it isn't. Seems on the line.

I want to see Epstein's records. He allegedly videotaped his parties. Trump and Prince Andrew attended a few.

That dude could hold a motherlode of dirt on serious scumbaggery by some seriously powerful men.

I totally agree that Trump has probably stopped at hand job joints as you and I might stop at Starbucks. (There's an Idiocracy tie-in there that's depressingly apt, btw.)

But in the spirit of Point/Counterpoint, Trump does seem to prefer playmates and porn stars. Karen McDougal isn't trading hand jobs at the local rub n tug. Nor is Stormy (for at least another five years). So maybe not?

He seems like a wherever-and-whenever-he-can-get-it, kind of guy, no? If Melania is at Mar-a-Lago, take a quick trip to the spa. If he's in Russia, send some prostitutes to his room. If he's at an event with a porn star, see if he can hook that up. If he's near a teen pageant dressing room, get in there and watch them undress. If it's just a normal woman, "move on 'em like a bitch" and "grab 'em by the pussy."

That's the most recent story. But since many of those involved were lying until quite recently about what happened, you can be suspicious about whether this story will hold.

A family member of mine was in a small room with Trump within the past year. And got a selfie! What am I doing humping it in biz development? I'm leaving cash on the table!

I tend to agree, but then I recall his years on Howard, where he critiqued the shit out of women. He seemed to be quite picky.

Regardless of his pathology, if you need to burden a masseuse in a strip mall to rub one out, you're pathetically lazy. Do it yourself, fat man. Get some exercise for once.

Apropos of Ty's link, I think you're discounting the possibility that demeaning the women involved is something he likes.

A few years back I was playing at Park Grove, my client's annual retreat. The foursome was the CEO, his two division presidents and me. It wasn't even serious- I can't play, the CEO really couldn't. It was nice. We were celebrating a recent win. Beautiful location.

Then about the 4th tee CEO muffs his tee shot. "Can I get a Mulligan?"

Suddenly the atmosphere changed. It should not matter. We were playing to be out there, not for anything else. But it clearly had changed.

One of the Presidents says, "Ted, you're the guest, what do you say?"

I say, "Hmm, this doesn't seem a legal question, more business."

The presidents looked at the ground for a second, then one says, "Sure, tee it back up."

It was weird, but definitely a show of power.

Also the possibility he cannot wrap his short fingers around anything wider than a pencil.
