George Will on Trump-Cohen audio recording: Trump is a ‘low-life from Queens’
By Jacqueline Thomsen - 07/25/18 09:21 AM EDT

Conservative columnist George Will said that the newly released tape of President Trump and his former lawyer discussing a payment tied to a former Playboy model shows that Trump is “a seedy man” and “a low-life from Queens.”

“I’m hearing redundant evidence that Mr. Trump is a seedy man whose incontinent sexual appetite gets him into seedy women,” Will said Tuesday on MSNBC’s “Last Word.”

CNN obtained and aired audio on Tuesday of a secretly recorded conversation between Trump and his former personal attorney, Michael Cohen, discussing buying the rights to former Playboy model Karen McDougal's story about her alleged affair with Trump.

The Trump campaign had previously denied any knowledge of the deal between McDougal and American Media Inc., the publisher of the National Enquirer, which purchased the rights to her story but never ran the piece. The former Playboy model sued the publisher over the deal, and the two parties settled earlier this year.

I'm a low-life from Queens. What of it?

Okay, I've never had enough money to be a true low-life but I've made a few attempts.

[Wingnut]

I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends in low places
Well, I guess I was wrong
I just don't belong
But then, I've been there before
Everything's all right
I'll just say goodnight
And I'll show myself to the door
Hey, I didn't mean
To cause a big scene
Just give me an hour and then
Well, I'll be as high
As that ivory tower
That you're livin' in

[skeeter]

Say what you will but I'm a stinker
I come crawling up out of my hole
Dirt in my toes, dirt up my nose
I'm a perfect curse to pest control

Seeds and weeds and muddy meals
Crawling around the earth
Down in the ground where the sun don't pound
I hibernate in English turf

Better believe it, I'm a stinker
Burning vermin stink
Watch me get as high as a heat wave honey
Tell me what you hound dogs think

Will hated Reagan, too.

[To-Whose-Benefit?]

Will would just be a "Also Ran" if he called himself a common sense Liberal.

But by posing as a Conservative, so long as he keeps bashing Republicans, he's a Celebrity.

[Frank Cannon]

Well George Will is just a straight up Queen. He can get bent and pound sand.

[Moose1958]

Just for the record I know of one low life that came from Champagne Illinois! Seems like I want to remember another from Hope, Akansas!

You can’t watch an episode of television from the 80’s forward without hearing a positive mention of Donald Trump. Men wanted to be like the Donald and women wanted to marry a man like Donald Trump.

And he threw all of that positive press away just to take on a thankless meat grinder position in politics.

He was always gutsy in business and I admired him for that. But his greatest challenge, politics, is what earned him my respect.

Men wanted to be like the Donald...

I didn't. As with many others, I had to step back to reassess him during the 2016 primary and election.

[Restored]

Yeah but he's a billionaire low-life from Queens who is in the WWE Hall of Fame.

Rose to the top in three separate fields: real estate, entertainment and politics. Not many can boast of that.

Trump hotels and resorts are rated among the finest in the world; the Emmy winning Apprentice television series ran for 15-years and lead the way in changing television; and as for politics, it doesn’t get any more successful than winning presidency of the United States, first time out.

Low-life? Will must have been looking at a mirror when he wrote that line.

You were describing him so well, then...

1987-1988: Trump considers a run for president, while simultaneously juggling large debts stemming from his purchase of the Taj Mahal casino.

2000: Trump enters the presidential race as a Reform Party candidate and receives more than 15,000 votes in the party's California primary.

2003-2004: Trump begins hosting the reality show The Apprentice on NBC, which he also executive-produces. He again mulls a run for president, but ultimately decides not to join the race.

2013: Trump forms a presidential exploratory committee and, despite a strong backing from Republican voters, announces that he has no interest in running for governor of New York in 2014.

June 2015: Trump formally announces that he's running for president in a speech delivered from Trump Tower in New York City.
