I never thought I’d be saying that W isn’t the worst president of my lifetime. Also, he may have been in someone’s pocket but at least he was bought and paid for by an American company instead of some Russian one. That’s true patriotism.
Guys, Trump has done the impossible and made me nostalgic for Bush. I would gratefully trade him into the office of President in a heartbeat. That is how bad things are. And it pisses me off that Trump is making Bush, who was an AWFUL president, be whitewashed with positive sentiment. But here we are.
Too many women, especially women of color, have had a lifetime of practice taking precisely these kinds of indignities in stride,” Clinton said.
It’s honestly emboldened white people in general (disclosure: white person, here).
One really sick part about this whole thing is that this is how A LOT of white people talk when no one else is around. The Trump era has made people think this is OK to not only say while at home, but on national television. People need to be publicly shamed for saying shit like this.
Somebody needs to crush that old fuck.

I waited until she was 6 months old to go back, though, because it would have been impossible before then.
You didn’t mention Christopher Darden’s fantastic wife Beth and their fabulous daughters Tess (who clues her parents in on William’s queer status) and Annie. This part of the family is what makes the show watchable for me.
Trainspotting is the reason I never, ever, touched drugs.....that scene was....never did I want to be as messed up as that movie was....
This, this, this!
Yes thank you as a Dad who is involved in my young son’s life I really tire of how people look to my wife as the dominant care giver instead of an equal partner.
Or parents could use the patented Artless Parents method, wherein the child wears underwear of their favorite characters and are then shamed relentlessly for soiling on She-Ra or the Care Bears.
