I have a friend who I talk to about geopolitics and he is on the opposite side of the political spectrum but actually pretty cool and open to debate.
He can go so far with me on certain matters but not when it comes to DJT his emotions get the better of him and he draws upon a lot of propaganda talking points, most of which I'm easily able to refute.
Recently he hit me with "Trump's mentor was a child abuser" and it was bit of a curve ball as I'll be honest, I didn't have any knowledge on Ray Cohn or his relationship to Trump.
My friend shared the following article with me: https://web.archive.org/web/20200705071114/https://villagemagazine.ie/trumps-mentor-and-the-abuse-of-a-teenage-boy-from-kincora-by-joseph-de-burca/
I don't really have anything to go back to him with as it's near impossible to find anything related to this subject which isn't one sided and I get to a point in searching where it feels like confirmation bias.
I figured I could potentially get a more balanced view of this relationship from the pedes here.
I feel like if I can get him past this then I can open his eyes to so much more. I'm not giving up on him, I'm hoping time will do the job for me and it is to a certain extent but this mental roadblock needs to be lifted.
What y'all got?
Can’t add much to the Roy Cohen story other than he was considered a very intelligent and accomplished lawyer and that’s probably why Trump had him as his lawyer. What he did in his off hours is anyone’s guess absent any proof. I have no idea what my lawyer is into during his off hours. I just hire him because he’s really smart and knows the law. As far as your friend disliking Trump, I find men who have an inferiority complex really dislike him. After all, he’s a billionaire who’s married to a supermodel. They’re all jealous and operate on their feelings. They won’t even acknowledge or give credit to his accomplishments. Real men, not cucks, admire and really like the kind of man Trump is. Same goes for women.
Makes sense from the legal perspective.
Also can see your point of view on private matters.
After talking privately I now also think there is something to be said and looked into with regards to certain religious organisations and their ties to politics.
I think Trump had a clean operation and kept his enemies close..
I agree.
