Right there in the article it says he broke into an ex-girlfriend’s home through her bedroom window, a sign that like most misogynistic douchebags. he does not handle rejection well. Or within the confines of the law, at least. That and the backstabbing move he just pulled tells you all you need to know.
Why must it necessarily be framed as “women didn’t do X because they didn’t want to but now they are coerced into doing it because it’s socially expected” rather than “women didn’t do X because they didn’t even realize it was a possibility to but now they are doing it because it’s socially acceptable”?
Sadly, this is so true. I have no idea why the media seem to give him a pass on the egregious things he says and does, yet they hammer in on Hillary for just about every fucking thing.
No, but if God forbid something happens to Hillary and Tim has to fill in her role, he’s definitely not gonna seek to govern the country in a manner identical to hers so his views on things like this DO matter.
Yes, because never in our history has a VP actually replaced the sitting President or anything...
It’s not just you. It’s very, overtly sexist. It’s the same people who insist that Bill will be running the show and Hillary is just his puppet.
I’m certain that before technology made it possible for everyone to see and hear our leaders, no one gave two shits if they were “likable” or not. We’re so excessively superficial that we’re wiling to settle for shitty president as long as they seem “relatable” and “fun” in our eyes.
I’m utterly convinced that whoever runs CNN is a Trump supporter, because their coverage of her speech has been wholly negative and it boggles my mind how anyone could criticize it. Hell, their coverage of Hillary has been wholly negative, period. They spend way more time excoriating her flaws and only ever give a…
No one’s demanding that Hillary be considered a gifted speaker, just that people need to stop exaggerating how “horrible” she is at public speaking, and stop acting like it’s the only thing she has to offer. No, she’s not Obama and no one should expect that from her. Her oratory skills are good enough, it’s not like…
One thing she certainly has in common with Obama is having their abilities underestimated for bigoted reasons. And just like all the progress Obama accomplished while in office was always undercut with criticism about what he didn’t do, even if it was beyond his control, Hillary will face the same shit. Nobody will…
lol, that would be a suicide move for him. Basically conceding defeat before the race is over.
It was, I think comonpoppet was confused.
No, Hillary’s mom Dorothy Rodham was abandoned as a child. Hillary had a perfectly conventional, middle class upbringing. She was talking about how reflecting on her mother’s desolate childhood not only gave her the imperative to fight on behalf of underprivileged children and those less fortunate in general, but also…
Easily my favorite part of the speech was this:
Thank you. There are entire languages (Spanish included) where gender-neutral nouns aren’t a thing. Are we going to have a crisis over that? Be more selective about the battles you choose to fight, folks.
She’s one of those people who cries racism when something doesn’t go her way, but generally couldn’t give less of a fuck about racism as a societal problem and will shine the white man’s shoes for the right amount of money. She wouldn’t recognize self-respect if it smacked her upside the head.
It seems that the crux of that whole piece is that “publicly opposing someone’s bigotry makes YOU a bigot”.
