Ok but as a political scientist I can say that’s exactly how our democracy was set up—to be two party (even though Washington was so against them). Look at the electoral college, for example.

I could almost—ALMOST—see this as a defense if he didn’t have the poor woman hug Trump AND him.

I spent an academic year (not even a school year) in New Orleans, and even as a white girl I realized it was super racist. I love that city, but wtf.

Totally unrelated—where are you from that calls it candy floss?

If they don’t constantly wear it they grow to hate it.

The vast majority of people voting for him are white dudes. Haven’t women and minorities been punished enough for white men’s sins?
