I agree. I was for Cain all the way, amongst ANY of the GOPE candidates. In hindsight, Cain just GAVE UP and didn’t put up a fight. I still remember the threads back then and Freepers were mad he would not fight back against the accusations. I dont want a president who just goes limp when the odds are against him unlike Trump.

“Cain just GAVE UP and didn’t put up a fight.”

IIRC, there were other similar accusations that Cain _did_ fight.
Then came “why are you sending Miss X $2000/mo?” and he just shut up & dropped out.

Sometimes there IS an embarrassing past. Gracefully exiting, then or before, is preferred to a protracted fight that _will_ be lost.

CLUE: Unlike Trump...., Herman Cain is not a Teflon Billionaire!!! Just be thankful that the "Donald" has the cajones and BILLIONS to endure the constant attacks against him while "Draining the Swamp" which, is by no means, an accomplishment at this point!

Reality check.

Cain didn’t “give up”.
He simply didn’t have the money for the legal processes and he said so at the time and has reiterated that point since.

I voted for him as a write in, since I oppose Islam in general and the Yazidi genocide which McCain facilitated.

On his show he talked about this when Trump was running. He told Trump to keep going and fight it. Cain said his donors dried up and to fight back in court costs money. Plus since the donors dried up he couldn’t keep the campaign going
