This is exactly why the right is constantly talking about paid trolls and paid protesters. Because they do it!

And the right wing constantly accuse the left of using payed protesters. Project much?
“Resist now, or regret it later.”
Seriously I’m so sick of people ignoring and suppressing discussion of all the horrid unending controversies because talking about the room being on fire is somehow divisive.
Gots to agree, Livia. Cheeto Hitler is not a normal candidate, he is not a normal President-elect, he is an active danger to the republic, our shared values as a people, and to our national sovereignty. Selling out our government to Vladimir Putin, and arranging his campaign and his office-holding for personal…
My democratic ideals also tell me to raise fucking hell when someone is attacking our civil liberties and frankly attacking our democratic ideals.
Since Jane who very much is an ignorant slut dismissed my comment, I’ll repost it here:
I was going to say that while you are right it’s not “wrong” to participate in it, but it’s also not “wrong” to skip it, just like you said, so the only remaining issue I have with your comment is the part of about peaceful transition of power, considering the person being sworn in doesn’t/didn’t believe in that…
I agree that it’s not an immoral act. I also would state that the inauguration can happen without fanfare or even an audience. It’s perfectly acceptable for him to be sworn in at ceremony at the white house quickly and quietly for there to be a “peaceful transition of power.” So, there’s no real obligation to attend…
I am always uncomfortable at the thought of Trump anywhere near children given his comments about his daughter, a young Paris Hilton and all of his other creepy comments.
Once my dad told me he wished we (my siblings and I) had been kids the same time he had been (he’s 80, so the 1940's) because it felt to him like a “safer” time (post ww2, pre cold war). I explained to him how horrible that would have been for me as a (smart, tomboyish, independent) female, and I could see in his eyes…
I may disagree on whether they asked or not but I agree with your conclusion.
Comedy shows are supposed to make fun of the contenders and accentuate the absurd. You cannot blame JS for thinking DT was a joke.
I seriously doubt that Trump ran for president because he was reacting against comedians. (First of all, comedians have been mocking Donald Trump for 30 years — the “tiny hands” thing comes from 90's satire magazine Spy).
I heard one person say, “there’s just so much more racial division with Obama than ever before.” Which from that line of reasoning, not only did Obama cause racial division, but, now that Trump is in charge, all those unhappy black and brown people are going to “go back” to enjoying life and getting along with…
I’ve asked most of my Trump supporting friends - what ISN’T great about America, and they can only say Obama and have no other reasoning behind it.
We can throw blame around until the end of time, or we can focus and neuter that sack of rancid pigeon meat in two years and then get it out of the White House in four.

What is the obsession with the good old days that White voters have, especially when boomers like Trump say the 50s? A time of extremely high taxation for the rich? The subjugation of colored people? McCarthyism? Jon Stewart touched on this topic on his own show. Every decade was pretty sh-ty for some group of people.…
