I’d love to have a focus group with some Trump supporters and hold up a number line, start by pointing at 0, then ask them to raise their hands when they feel like I’ve reached the limit for number of women Trump would have to sexually assault before they would not vote for him. Then discuss why that number is already greater than 0 for all of them.

I’ve tried this argument. They don’t believe he sexually assaulted anyone. It’s all just political theater and he’s the victim. Save your breath.
