It is stupid crap. All because this candidate used a term to describe defeat that's been used by Vice President Mondale, Governor Nelson Rockefeller and many others to describe being beaten badly. So you can't allow the false accusations to stand. You have to punch back. We're in this mess because we didn't stand up against the little things, which grew to bigger things, that are now so huge they're literally destroying our country.
Trump is the only one in the race that can fix it. We can't let him lose over lies about his choice of a perfectly acceptable word the press was too stupid to know the meaning of and too lazy to look iit up.Last edited by Judy; 12-23-2015 at 10:40 AM.

12-23-2015, 10:44 AM #22To be perfectly clear, the expression is by no means "commonplace" — in New York or elsewhere. It has never appeared in the New York Times (prior to this week) and does not appear to have been used in any New York paper early in the 20th century. It doesn't appear in Irving Lewis Allen's 1993 book, "The City in Slang," which documents any number of lesser-known expressions that trickled out of New York City. And, as a point of personal privilege, it's not something that I'm familiar with, having grown up upstate and lived in the city for most of the past decade.

Trump Doubles Down On ‘Schlong,’ Veteran Journalists Back Him Up

Under fire from Democrats and the media for saying Hillary Clinton “got schlonged” in 2008 by Barack Obama, Republican hopeful Donald Trump doubled down.
Claiming a candidate getting “schlonged” is “a commonly used word in politics,” Trump refused to back down.

Once again, #MSM is dishonest. "Schlonged" is not vulgar. When I said Hillary got "schlonged" that meant beaten badly.

He even cited NPR using the term in a political context.

NPR's @NealConan said "schlonged" to WaPo re: 1984 Mondale/Ferraro campaign: "That ticket went on to get schlonged at the polls." #Hypocrisy

When I said that Hillary Clinton got schlonged by Obama, it meant got beaten badly. The media knows this. Often used word in politics!

Clinton’s communications director, Jennifer Palmieri, released a statement condemning Trump’s use of the term. Palmieri said the campaign was “not responding to Trump.” However, she played the “woman card” and claimed victim status for Hillary by adding while they won’t be responding, “everyone who understands the humiliation this degrading language inflicts on all women should.”
Clinton came under fire for saying Trump has been featured in ISIS recruitment videos. Media fact checkers could not find any evidence to support this claim, declaring it a lie.
While Trump is not featured in ISIS recruitment films, Clinton’s husband, former President Bill Clinton, is prominently featured in an ISIS video, where he is called a “fornicator” for his affairs and multiple claims of sexual assault and harassment.
Trump’s demands for an apology for the false charge were brushed off by the Clinton campaign.
Rather than address any of the back and forth head on, Clinton used a question about bullying to again attack Trump for his words.
Backing up Trump’s claim “schlonged” is a common political term was veteran newsman Jeff Greenfield and New York Times political correspondent Alex Burns.
Click on link below to see their tweets that say they heard it often, Rockefeller, Mondale, sports players, all used the term to mean beaten, defeated. For some reason dailycaller site is hard to copy and paste the tweets due to connection coming and going.

I think the real problem is difficulty separating the schlong from the schlonged, two different words, two different meanings.
