"Much of Trump's perceived slights of ethnic groups are really just articulation issues." ----PICK6

^^ Not much of it, all of it. The entire argument is a fiction and foment of the left and other Trump foes and especially #NeverTrump. Trump critics who know him personally will even tell you that Trump is not a racist. Let's just talk about the woman card for just a bit. Reportedly Trump called one woman, that's one, a pig. Back in the 60's men called women pigs if they were shall we say 'loose?' But it certainly did not mean that in saying that about one woman, that they somehow meant all women. No, the slam would have been singular and meant for only one woman. That word pig was used by every man at some point to describe a particular woman if he grew up during that time.

Trump did in fact grow up in that time. Nowadays one might hear the word skank used instead of pig. But let's be fair here, men are disparaged too and were disparaged in the 60's as well. Ever heard the term chauvinist pig? But the point is this; we've all heard men and women in the process of breaking up, or any social dispute use such terminology about each other and nothing much has ever been made of it. Until now. Now because Trump in times past, cast specific women in a derogatory light, according to his liberal political foes, he is a misogynist, an abuser of women. And even though women have stepped up to refute the charge and even though hundreds of women occupy high paying management positions in the Trump business organization, political foes keep pouring it on because after all, it's not about truth it's about winning. Remember how Harry Reid responded when caught up in his lie in which he stated that Romney hadn't paid income tax in a decade? Said Reid with a smirk and a laugh; "Well, he didn't get elected, did he."

But you are exactly right Pick6, Trump can be inartful in typical New York brogue and style. They all do it up there until like Rudy Jiuliani, they get a little polish.
