He has never backed down on anything.
Well. Continuing in this vein, he has of course backed down on plenty of things in his life. You're talking about his political 'career'. He will have backed down many times to his over-dominant father, in failed business deals, quite possibly to organised crime, quite possibly to other instances of coercion. Just mentioning this as the hardman complex must come from somewhere.
That's not the same thing, Oliver. Not properly recognising a photograph is not the same thing as not remembering who you were with. Trump doesn't mistakenly remember being married to E Jean Carroll. Nobody showed him a picture of Willie Brown and said "Is this the man you were on that helicopter ride with?".
@tmevans He has never backed down on anything. Not only does nobody in the Republican party have the balls to tell him he should, he has zero party loyalty. There is no sense of honour, or rational assessment of the hard facts, to appeal to even if somebody were to try. Which they're not.
