That might be the most shameful part of this (for her). It really seems like all of these Trump stooges are basically “playing house.” Linton thinks she can become the next Jackie O by dressing up and posing as she steps out of a plane with her charlatan of a powerbroker husband. Ivanka thinks she can divest

Of course not. They don’t see themselves as “working class” but as “temporarily embarrassed millionaires” who fully expect all that wealth to trickle down.

I agree with a lot of this.

I left a church we had been a part of for 18 years because they had a Trump rally. I was chair of the school board, Athletic Director, Cross Country coach. Walked away from it all. Wife stayed, we are still married, it’s been difficult.

There have been a few times in the last 70 years or so when whites have been “about to become a minority” and they’ve responded by changing the definition of whiteness. “How the Irish became white” is a great example of this. They did it basically by practicing anti-blackness and it’s no coincidence that our most

If only this were true. 60 years ago, with the passing of the Civil Rights Act, white America was told to back up. The way things were, were terrible. An embarrassment that we could cling to so many injustices that are now going to be righted. It was a New World and so many, white and black, loved it because maybe now

I don’t see it as him pivoting the conversation, but he’s just continuing to try to defend his half-assed apology. I see it as an extension of his ridiculous attempts at justification of Nazi and the KKK as simply “other Americans,” not necessarily strategic but like how a kid will begin trying to explain how he

That’s the plan for AFTER the cities agree to end their sanctuary policies. Why waste time prosecuting white men when we know all rapes are caused by a sea of sex-crazed illegal criminals flooding through our Good Christian Suburbs? Sanctuary cities should be grateful because really, they brought this on themselves

I think sanctuary cities should counteroffer with a refusal to pay any taxes...starting with the ones that fund this ham monster of a Congressman’s salary. Let’s see how the Trunp-loving rural areas of Georgia do when the cities start keeping funds to themselves (and I say this as someone who lives in farm country).

MURDERER.

Ugh it’s the “he loves you” bit that drives me crazy. If Christians at least just admitted that they consider themselves the inconsequential slaves of an all-powerful master who is using them to win a millenia-long bet against a rogue minion, I’d be more understanding. We’re all tiny Eddie Murphy’s in a cosmic version

And that, in a nutshell, is Christianity in ‘Merika. They like to think they worship Jesus but they really worship unbridled greed and money.

“A free market economy is the closest approximation in this fallen world to the system of economy revealed in the Bible.”

“We must do what we can in conjunction with our friends to stop America from going full Trump.”

Not to go all armchair psychologist, but not having the empathy to understand that your well being isn’t the priority of other people just because it’s yours is classically symptomatic of a number of disorders....

ha ha if anything this makes Mexicans dislike him even more. Every single time the Cuban’s voting patterns are talked about we all roll our eyes. We think there should be a different category for them. They don’t count as Hispanics or Latinos because we may have language and culture in common but we surely have very

Chump in Charge,

I’m not certain that it fucked up his relationship with the service that much. I believe more servicemembers are right-leaning than left-leaning. There is an awful lot of racism, misogyny, homophobia and xenophobia in the services. Lots of toxic masculinity. Lots of bitching that black guys and women are taking all

“They kidnap. They extort. They rape and they rob. They stomp on their victims,” he said. “They beat them with clubs, they slash them with machetes, and they stab them with knives. They have transformed peaceful parks and beautiful quiet neighborhoods into bloodstained killing fields. They’re animals.”

Great. More NYC area cops being idolized and encouraged to violence.
