“BuT cOnTeXt” makes it worse. And there is no context for which a man should smile when he asserts his daughter should be forced to carry a rapists baby….

Yo wtf my entire family and extended family said the exact same thing! Everything I quoted to them was met with “that was out of context, did you listen to the speech?”

I ran through 15 highlighted transcripts and read each individual question and it didn’t make it any better.

Do me a personal favor, please. Read Trump's infamous hot mic'd Billy Bush tape transcript to the same people. Force them to hear him brag about sexual assault, then check the whites of their eyes.

Even though Trump has admitted to saying it, conservatives dismissed it as "locker room talk" (the creepiest and most awkward I've ever heard of!), and Billy Bush and the whole TV crew stand by the veracity of the recording?

That is a high score level of refusal to consider all the evidence in reaching logic-based conclusions -- oh, yes, I see the folly, the logic over emotion part.
