So naturally, the Trump tapes didn't cause Trump to lose a lot of voters. This obviously means that, according to his base, anything goes, and we shouldn't care about anything bad Trump does or may have done. However, the problem with that is, if there are absolutely no standards, then obviously it's not about morality. But if we shouldn't care about a candidates' values or actions, then by that logic neither should we care about a president's values or actions, and therefore, it becomes entirely self-defeating. What's the point of electing someone if you're just willing to dismiss every disagreeable thing they do? It means they can do whatever the fuck they want to, and get away with it.
Oh right, Trump supporters don't think about these things at all.
