The fact that Schwarzenegger is a world famous bodybuilder, actor and the former governor of California is relevant only in that his fame gives him a soap box big enough to get our attention.
I felt the same way after watching last night. I laughed many times, and that is the point of these things I think...
I like Mitt, but even I have to admit he’s not exactly punk rock.
I have a question. I’m all for trans people doing whatever they want to do. It’s their business. But suppose a sub 4 minute mile runner decides he’s always been a woman and decides to compete against elite women. The world record for a woman is just over 4:12 for the mile. Would that be fair?
I ‘member! But I also ‘member that Trey and Stone made their fortunes insulting everyone. If they aren’t insulting everyone, then they aren’t doing their jerbs.

Well, I’m sure there’ll be some uproar gainst Riz once they hear of it.
“Ziegler... is not autistic”. That sound like the STUPIDEST complaint in the world, currently (I’m sure there have been many others equally as stupid before). I mean, that is REALLY REALLY stupid. Do people not know what ‘acting’ is? Sean Connery was neither Russian nor a submarine commander yet he played both - at…
Intentions aside, she is making the optically-disastrous move of not stepping back and saying nothing so everyone can wear themselves out, and instead digging in and tweeting harder.
