The problem with the Democrats is that they focus on minor stuff like that instead of the issues. I don't see the big deal. Everyone knows Trump is a sexist and primarily views women as a piece of meat to bang. I'm not saying it's right. But focusing on that kind of "locker room" talk is not going to win elections. Plus, most men in red states agree with Trump in that regard. So you are not winning any votes with that angle. And there are plenty of women who view men as dicks to get off on.

These steel and aluminum tariffs are purely political moves on Trump's part, to shore up his base in key states, such as PA, WV and OK, where he desperately needs to win in order to get re-elected. I say this because the tariffs make no sense from an economic point of view: it hurts more Americans and other sectors of the economy than those it helps. So, people trying to analyze this from an economic point of view are looking at this from the wrong angle. And I'm sure Trump has made this clear to World leaders so no trade wars get started.
