It’s the associated belief that wealth = morality. That wealthy people are wealthy because they are good and deserve it, and people who aren’t are bad and deserve it. It’s this rugged individualism that is inherent to the American culture, bootstraps and all that, that discounts how much of it simply has to do with…

Exactly the same as Paul Ryan, who paid for college with Social Security benefits his family got after his father died.

Unless it’s gay marriage or a woman’s right to choose, then they really care about something that doesn’t impact them personally.

Holy shit, please tell me this is a SNL skit or something. My head might explode if this is real.

It’s giving the people who wouldn’t want to admit in polite company that they’d rather support an alleged pedophile than a Democrat an easy out. Maybe I’m cynical, but it’s really not that surprising to me. These people want a Republican in office and if you can convince yourself that it’s a lie, you’ll feel less like…

Of course he does. He and the Racist Keebler Elf Jefferson Beauregard Sessions are cut from the same racist piece-of-shit cloth.

I hadn’t previously heard of any of this, but holy shit please let it be so. Please let there be a light at the end of this utter nightmare tunnel.

Yeah, I know :/

Apparently he attempted to talk two female subordinates into acting as a surrogate for him and his wife, who do in fact have twins born via surrogacy in 2008 (thanks Wikipedia).

From the article about Roy Moore (that makes me want to jump out of the nearest window, holy shit America in 2017 is so fucked):

Please let him be next, followed swiftly by Roy Moore losing AL (a girl can dream) and the groper-in-chief.

Based on the fact that he is a Tea Party Republican in a deep-red district at the height of GOP hypocrisy over sexual harassment/assault allegations and that his resignation is preceding the allegations being made public, whatever this “inappropriate behavior” is, it must be pretty damning.

I completely agree with you, something is up with him and it’s only going to get worse. The GOP have proven themselves to be completely without morals, patriotism, or decency - so my only question, is how much worse are they going to let this get before they toss him out like any sane human would do (I mean a sane…

That’s awful, and I’m so sorry that happened to you. It’s a reminder that even in 2017, we still have so much farther to go. Wishing you all of the best things <3

It defies logic, especially in America where capitalism is king. How big of a bigot must you be to actively sabotage your business because putting two men on a wedding cake is just a bridge too far?

Also, is this couple’s money not green? He doesn’t have to go to the wedding, buy them a present, or be in the photos. It’s a cake to be used in a celebration of love between two humans. Like is this really the hill you need to die on?

Yep.

Holy shit - I’m really sorry that happened to you. Genuine question, but isn’t that the fatal flaw with Bitcoin and these other cryptocurrencies? If you robbed a bank for $125 million worth of people’s deposits, the people that were stolen from would have some recourse. With this, you’re just out whatever money you…

Precisely my issue - I don’t mind the dress but seeing her play diplomat makes me rage. Like what is she even doing there? I don’t want Complicit Ivanka representing us in India any more than I want her Dotard father to either. Where the hell are the actual career diplomats?

I agree, and it’s perfectly manifested here. That 0.1% is unacceptable to a still-depressing number of white people.
