    But if what she did was legal, was she wrong in what she did and was she being irresponsible?

    Made it halfway through and just had to stop. That was awful.

    It's not illegal for a supervisor to get blown by an intern, but it is wrong.

    Yes. It is possible to be both within the law and doing something wrong. People get fired for it every day. My kid went in a timeout yesterday. She didn't do anything illegal.

    Was what Trump did wrong?

    Did the NYT allege that Trump did something wrong?

    I agree the story was poorly executed and lacked context and needed expert analysis, but it still shed some light.

    It showed that a candidate running as a business success story lost close to a billion dollars in a year.

    Pretty good ad.

    Who decides if it's wrong? Wrong is what every person's moral judgment says that it is.

    Trump's not paying taxes may be legal, but there may be a lot of people who feel that he is wrong for not paying more. What did your kid do for the timeout that you felt was wrong, even though she didn't break your rules?

    The fiction that the obnoxious asinine bloviating billionaire Dumpf gives a jack shit about the "working man" is blown to bits when he carps about the "47%" mooching and paying no taxes, usually scratching every week to make ends meet while Big Daddy Gotrocks Dumpf takes a billion dollar writeoff.

    What Clinton did was not "prosecutable," but she most assuredly did not comply with several federal policies.

    Do you think he should have voluntarily paid more taxes? Was writing down the loss wrong?

    As soon as he releases his taxes (and really, why wouldn't he now? This was surely the worst of the bad news, right?) we can try and make an intelligent guess. Until then, he's done nothing to deserve the benefit of the doubt.
