(I do that! lol)

omg it’s such a relief to hear a man say those things you don’t even know

Hillary didn’t cheat, as far as we know.

I dunno, I have as much of a crush on both the Brawny Man and Young Tim Kaine as anyone, but that’s kind of a reach lol

In addition to how difficult the situation already was, as you describe, at the time Bernie and the DNC were playing lawsuit chicken, and there was no way for her campaign to respond to this without creating several new conspiracy theories. Besides, as other commenters have pointed out, it’s not like she couldn’t have…

And sure, this shouldn’t have happened, but I still fail to see how it’s Hillary’s fault, or why it should cost her a single vote.

Michelle Goldberg wrote a piece for Slate a few days ago in which she interviewed a number of conservative, religious women, and came to a fascinating conclusion: Liberal feminists despise Trump for all the obvious reasons, and when we hear Paul Ryan push back and say women should be “championed and revered,” we still…

We did know! Even when we did the whole, “well he SAYS he’s not gay and really it’s none of our business so we should just take him at his word” thing, for years, WE KNEW! lol

(that’s the joke)
