The scary thing is that Trump thinks the hookers thing is the worst insult...

It's telling though hardly surprising that the parts of the Russian dossier that upset Trump the most are actually the least important. Putting aside the rather low level crime of prostitution, I'm not aware if it's illegal to hire a prostitute in Russia or if it's just illegal to be one, Wikipedia simply says that prostitution is illegal in Russia. I'm also putting aside the obvious topic of the degradation of women here as obviously Trump doesn't care about that for one second, although it's an important topic especially since the president is a role model. At any rate the act of hiring a prostitute, and or otherwise engaging in extra marital affairs would put trump in the same category as Kennedy, Clinton and likely other presidents. It's the nature of the acts involved in the dossier of course that bother Trump. If true, they make him look like a pervert. Although we already know this, he himself proudly announced that he grabs women "by the pussy". For a president who manages to somehow have that roll off his back it's hard to understand why hookers would be any more embarrassing. I have my own theory that part of the reason is that the acts in the dossier, the peeing on the bed etc, are acts of female dominance in some ways. Acts that emasculate him. Embarrassment is his Achilles heal.

For everything that was in that dossier the one thing he keeps mentioning and denying are the embarrassing acts. He never mentions or denies the rest of it. You know, the actual high crimes?! The actual TREASON! The stuff that should actually put terror in anyone... silence on all of that.

Keep in mind the age of the girls that were in the dressing rooms he liked to walk in on.

It doesn't surprise me to hear them. His own interactions with his daughter over the years in public and the things he has said about her are highly troubling. You are right, there might be some disgustingly dark secrets in his closet. Although not buried very deeply.

I suspect the videos are of him severely degrading women ... but he's embarrassed he can't elaborate on that fact and that the media has run with him being the 'peed on' ...

I'm sure it's driving him crazy he can't come out and refute them, bellowing to the effect of "What the HELL are you talking about, I P'D ALL OVER THOSE DIRTY ******, I made 'em BEG for it and tell me how much they loved it, and they DID!!!"

Bet it bugs him every night the story comes up anywhere in the media that he can't scream 'the truth' at someone ...

the sex part would bother them more. just look at how they ignore the trump u scam, the taxes and many other things we know about.

also the clinton kennedy stuff was more of the usual affair . it's different when paying for it as seen with eliot spitzer .

and the chance of underage girls involved and of it being on tape.
