1. There are a lot of people who like the kinky stuff. They get off on it as he does.

I have seen pictures of women wearing t shirts saying that he can grab them by the pussy. They are quite proud of the kink.

The testimony yesterday and today is prompted to appeal to those who enjoy that.

I guess despite every repulsive, career-ending (if it were anyone else) thing we find out about him, the harder the M$M helps him fail upwards......

3. There is a story in the current Vanity Fair

That details how angry he was when Ivanka was going to marry "a Jew", and he tried to get Chris Christie (who had prosecuted Kushner's father) to give him dirt on Jared to keep her from going through with the wedding.

But like everything else, this sort of tawdry nastiness will be ignored by Trump's people.

Chris Christie was pretty obviously the source for the story.

Scroll down -- here's the relevant passage:
This sort of deep-seated impulse to demolish boundaries long predates even Trump’s first run for the presidency. While reporting this article, I heard a story Chris Christie has told people about Trump’s inherent lawlessness. In the summer of 2009, Trump told people how furious he was that his daughter Ivanka got engaged to Jared Kushner and agreed to convert to Judaism. “You’re not going to believe this, my daughter is going to be a…Jew,” Trump said, according to a person who heard the remarks. According to a source, Trump told Christie, who was the former US attorney in New Jersey, to help him stop the marriage.

Trump invited Christie to dinner at 21 Club in Manhattan and asked for FBI dirt on Kushner’s father, Charles. (Five years earlier, Christie had negotiated a guilty plea from Charles, a billionaire real estate developer, for 16 counts of assisting in the filing of false tax returns, one count of retaliating against a cooperating witness, and one count of making false statements to the Federal Election Commission.) Trump told Christie he wanted to show the dirt to Ivanka to convince her to break up with Kushner. “She can’t marry this kid! He’s a twerp!” Trump said. Christie told Trump that sharing confidential grand jury evidence is a crime and didn’t do it. (The Trump campaign did not reply to a request for comment. Christie declined to comment.)

That word really jumped out at me in Tuesday's testimony. I was so struck by it that I posted about it Tuesday night: https://www.democraticunderground.com/100218931373

I'm getting ready to read her Substack entry now. Thanks for calling this to our attention!

So... you're telling me he was spanked using a magazine with his own face on it by a porn star who reminded him of his daughter?

I'll have to get back to you on this one...
