Right? As the great Lin Manuel Miranda said: “We’ve got a war to fight, let’s move along”

I think that’s what the article is implying but honestly, I live in Boston and know plenty of white girls who are more than down to clown on St Patrick’s Day specifically. Like, the tweet could be referring to drunk white girls actively seeking consensual sex. So he’s just saying there are more opportunities. Is it in…

Right, I’d definitely say something i inn the moment, but not after they did something noteworthy and arguably pretty courageous four years later. “It’s great that you rescued those puppies from a fire, but remember how in college you once said something kinda iffy?”

This article is jumping to the conclusion that a Black man talking about meeting white girls on a holiday weekend equals rape and they want us to make that conclusion as well.

This moral purity bullshit has to stop. He is human. Everyone has said something stupid or insensitive. This isn’t an “ominous tweet”, it’s a four year old distraction from the real problems we’re facing today. Foreign diplomats staying at Trump’s DC hotel in order to curry favor with Dear Leader. And Reince Priebus…

Is he the president or vice-president elect who has spent his campaign or political career promoting racist, bigoted, misogynistic or homophobic rhetoric or laws to millions of people? No?

As a certified White Chick, I can attest to being drunk and horny on St. Patrick’s day in the past. Extra drunk and horny because my family is super Irish.

I was going to say — aren’t the same people raising the biggest stink about this the same ones who supported Good Ol’ Mr. “Grab ‘Em By the Pu**y” all the way to the (borked, voter-suppression-corrupted) election results ... ?

Meanwhile Trump, his supporters, and other politicians are calling BDV and the entire cast of Hamilton every name under the moon. They tells the audience not to boo (since they were the ones who did the booing), talks about love, rights, and acceptance, tells Pence they welcome and thank him, calls him sir, thank him…

If I knew someone who said/posted this, I’d hassle them, because I do think it’s gross and because I’m an uptight, sanctimonious killjoy with the temperament of a British vicar in a Maugham story. But if it was the worst he’s said, and especially if he has clearly grown and evolved as a person in the *literally years*…

Come on. Saying that he was implying  black men could use St Pat’s Day to prey on women is overwrought and one hell of a stretch. Ever been to a bar on St pats day? It’s 99% white people. It’s a white holiday that attracts white people. He could be saying that it’s a perfect time to meet white women if you’re into…

Oh fuck this. Are we counting now? This was 2012. People grow and evolve.

Can we talk more about the gross Tweets our future President has made just this month? The gross things Mike Pence would Tweet if Mike Pence tweeted?

It is. Still doesn’t help this make any sense to me, though. Maybe because I’m tired and early-stage sick but even so, I shouldn’t have to do mental gymnastics to see why something is problematic.

Me too. Could easily be some drunk women are horny and looking for sex. Celebratory moods make some women want sex? It’s ambiguous and I’d want to look at more than one tweet to determine a pattern and meaning. Trump’s are part of a long term pattern and are consistently bad to aweful.

Sorry but I can’t nullify his great speech because of one mildly offensive Tweet made four years ago.

Isn’t everyone drunk on St-Patrick’s Day? That’s the whole point of it.

One gross tweet, 4.5 years ago. The equivalent of hocking a loogie in public, 4.5 years ago.

I’m pretty easily offended, but I’ve got nothing to say about this one. Let’s all move along.

Yeah, someone’s going to have to explain this one to me because I don’t see how it’s all that bad. Is it because the girls get... Drunk? And that makes them prey? Because that’s really not how I’m interpreting this.

Only one gross tweet? Trump has made hundreds. Thousands, maybe.
