A jaywalking case being used to destroy the President by forcing him in an unprecedented way to disclose private behavior in a public arena . Some situations you are just forced to lie about in life and this was certainly one of them. They are rare; they should be rare, but everyone has had that moment where they had to compromise their absolute value on honesty for the good of the circumstance. It takes a jury to sort out whether someone had to lie; I think this is one of them. THE QUESTION NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN to publicly humilate him in a way totally disproportionate to this office and circumstanceASKED OF A SITTING PRESIDENT IN THE FIRST PLACE; THAT IS THE ISSUE AND WHAT IS NOT DEBATABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is what a majority of American's understand. It was a setup. It takes a jury to sort out whether someone had to lie; I think this is one of them.??!! to publicly humilate him in a way totally disproportionate to this office and circumstance?? everyone has had that moment where they had to compromise their absolute value on honesty for the good of the circumstance?? How to deal with an American's "understand" How to be publicly "humilated" And you must see all his other posts. Read them slowly and carefully if you wish to see all the gems!
