Skrew yourself and your high horse. The canidate that we wanted lost. That doesn’t change the fact that we are stuck with Trump as a president or that him being impeached would give us a more dangerous president. Your temper tantrum isn’t going to do anything positive except make you feel better. Just like the Tea…
Or they just really didn’t want to vote Clinton in. Those leaks definitely didn’t help.
How is that any difference than the tea party morons not excepting Obama? I mean I would love to see Trump and Pence kicked out of office. But if Trump is out we get Pence who is much more functionally dangerous.
I am a mexican woman who isnt even a citizen yet, my husband and i only have insurance because of his union, my parents are undocumented and my sister is a lesbian. I dont even know what to worry about first... my sister losing her right to marry, my parents being deported, me losing my healthcare my husbands union…
People have been shitting all over Nate Silver for being “too conservative” because he’s consistently given Trump a higher chance of winning than almost everyone else, and because he’s repeatedly said that if there was ever an election in which the polls got it massively wrong, this was going to be it.
No, fuck you limousine coastal liberals. You know NOTHING. Everyone on the ground in the Midwest saw this coming. FUCK YOU. You think you know better than people here? The majority of POC I know on the ground in STL voted for Jill Stein. Yet here you white fucking Brooklyn assholes still stand, telling us how you…
I think it’s funny that so many people place all their faith in those with political power. You need to put that faith in yourself! They’re not going to save you period. Not even Hillary.
So many people — on this site, even! — have condescendingly told me over the last several months that I didn’t understand how politics or math worked when I said it was very dangerous to treat a Clinton win as a sure thing. I’ve never been more sick and miserable to be proved right.
By yelling I’M SORRY you are making this about you and that is not helpful. People have other things to think about right now than telling you it’s okay they know it’s not your fault etc etc.
All this time Trump has been saying the election is rigged. Anyone put any thought into whether that was an accusation or a confession?
On The Fall, Gillian Anderson’s character says (explaining why a woman seemed to be going willingly with the man who kidnapped and assaulted her), “[S]he might well have been compliant, she might well have submitted but that does not mean she consented.”
Well, I’m black and gay, so let me try to explain this, at least how I’ve experienced things.
The one thing that separates homophobia and transphobia from racism is that, for the most part, those elements of who someone is can be hidden from public view. A person who is gay can remain in the closet if they so choose,…
If you didn’t hear the words, and they were filtered through someone who has an agenda to make someone else sound as bad as possible, you’re not going to wonder about context?
Fair enough, and seriously thanks for the reasoned reply.
“...He said, ‘And when you’re a star, they let you do it.’ That phrase implies consent...”
Let’s note the very different takes from Jezebel on two very similar events here. Amy Schumer mocks Trump at a show and gets positive coverage; Dave Chapelle mocks Hillary at a show and gets negative coverage.
All this is really making me wish we could just get a do-over on this election with both Trump and Clinton forced to sit out. I feel like a dead horse being beaten with a dead horse... to death. FUCK.
