If any young person still in those 'formative years' is watching the 2016, Presidential campaign rhetoric (and I hope there is few) please peal away the weak posturing.
Example: A few nights ago, Melania Trump was interviewed by CNN's Anderson Cooper regarding her thoughts on the sexual aggression/behavior comments by her husband, GOP Presidential candidate, Donald Trump. She defended her husband stating that she believed the nine women claiming that they were sexually assaulted by Trump are lying. She went on to say that women openly invite her husband's advances by giving him their telephone numbers. Finally, she excuses Donald's vulgar language, captured on the Access Hollywood tape by characterizing the vulgarity, which demeans women as "boy talk." Mrs. Trump then accuses Access Hollywood host, Billy Bush for 'egging' her husband on with leading questions and comments.
Melania Trump's defense of her husband has similarities to those previously used by Hillary in defense of Bill. I have sympathy for both womens' circumstances and appreciate their emotional needs to defend and support. I would encourage our young people to peal away this nonsense of 'blaming' others for your love one's weaknesses. Look, it takes two for 'the game' unless the game is solitary-cards.
In the 1970's comedian, Flip Wilson entertained us dressed as 'Geraldine.' You remember Geraldine...
"The devil made me do it."
I made it very clear to my children. I will never stand in line to receive your hoorah and accolades and I will not feel motivated to explain-away your poor choices.
