POTUS claims that horrible feeling you have right now (as he’s oblivious & enjoying himself) is just good ol’ fashioned short-term pain? Precisely the framing to expect from an adjudicated sexual abuser. His way of saying your pain is irrelevant, ignore it—not part of his calculus to do what he did.
