I had to Google that time he made up a friend. Do you remember his imaginary friend Jim?

I know. I know. That is my inclination too and I think that is why I am not suited to any of these kinds of jobs. He (Trump) is truly a horrible and awful human being and I know that dollars to donughts this is an opportunity for him to co-opt me in his racial photo-op circus. But I wonder if someone who runs a public…

My vote is you decline the invite. Showing up is normalizing this man and an administration that has deliberately disrespected HBCU students and their families.

My god, Tim Tyson is a tireless activist here in NC for Black Lives Matter, for Moral Mondays with Reverend William Barber. He’s on the front lines literally every week. He’s been arrested numerous times while protesting voter suppression and gerrymandering. He’s a fine historian and a man of unwavering principle.

I saw it as more of a statement of fact, not a sympathy thing. Because when I read that line, all I could think was “good.”

Repeating her claims about a ruined life with no context about what she did is not presenting research unvarnished by personal opinion, it’s allowing someone who is complicit in a murder to brush off her responsibility and in any other context, you wouldn’t be here making excuses for it.

Exactly. There were many people who did not beat and kill. There were even white people who were willing to go to the South to march, to help register, to be active in the communities. Not everyone believed that was just the way it was.

Exactly. “That case went a long way toward ruining her life,” is how a lot of these people choose to not see the people who really suffered.

WTF, the case ruined her life. A young man was murdered and hse lied to defend the murderers. SMMFH!

Of course she loves him.. That’s why I am choosing to support the alternative news that she’s still in Washington, D.C. supporting her The Husband right now.

Oh daaaamn.

Honestly, I don’t think they do. Either that or it’s like with my parents, rabid Republicans who live off of my dad’s disability/SS and have free healthcare from the state. They truly believe they deserve it (whatever the hell that means) and everyone else is the problem.

Oh my god, I am so with you. My sister and I have responded in opposite ways to the tragedy of Trump’s election. I’ve retreated from the world entirely, and she’s jumped head first into non-stop advocacy efforts on all fronts. Every couple days, she’ll post something on social media about how her concern and…

I read an article in the Washington Post the other day that mentioned a woman and her husband, who both get health insurance through Obamacare. The husband is on the list for a liver transplant. They both voted for Trump. And the wife was like, “Wait, he’s really going to cut Obamacare? I thought that was just talk!…

Literally every Trump voter:

I’ve read articles where people voted for Trump and are now shocked that he’s probably going to be going after THEIR benefits. People do this all the time. Somehow, when they receive benefits or entitlements, it’s worth it. And somehow when other people receive the same, they’re freeloading. And somehow when someone…

This is off topic but the Social Security changes really worry me. My children all receive Social Security Survivor Benefits (my husband passed away). We depend on that money to replace his income. It’s been a huge part of why I’ve continued to be able to give my kids some stability and keep them in the same school…

I saw some stats regarding the most recent enrollments in the ACA, top 5 states with most enrollees ALL went to Trump.

Yep, me too. You morons deserve to be left by the side of the road, just like your dad threatened to for kicking the back of his seat for five hundred miles. You wouldn’t listen.

I’m having a hard time feeling any sympathy for Trump voters who get health benefits via the exchange or who receive Medicare/Social Security who seem stunned that the continuation of these benefits is now in real jeopardy. I feel sorry for everyone smart enough not to vote for Trump who will lose access to these…
