Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus responded Sunday to an article that appeared in The New York Times detailing presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump’s private treatment of women.

Priebus spent his Sunday morning appearing on the Sunday news programs and defending Trump, including against a Times report that the businessman was offensive to dozens of women.

“These are things that he is going to have to answer for, but I also think there are things from many years ago,” Priebus said on ABC News’ “This Week.”

Trump also responded to the report on Sunday, calling the media “TOTALLY dishonest.”

“I don’t think Donald Trump is being judged based on his personal life. I think people are judging Donald Trump as to whether or not he’s someone that’s going to go to Washington and shake things up,” Priebus said. “And that’s why he’s doing so well.”

  3. Its called CHARACTER, Rinsebot. Your candidate is a low-life, amoral, lying POS in every area of his life, personal and public.

    Indeed, Dionysodorus agrees that “there is no such thing as false opinion . . . there is no such thing as ignorance” and demands of Socrates to “Refute me.” Socrates responds “But how can I refute you, if, as you say, to tell a falsehood is impossible?”
