He will absolutely lose “a single voter”, he has already lost lots of voters. His approval ratings have only gone down. He is not popular. The Vocal minority, that’s who they are, with a lot of cognitive dissonance and sophisticated propaganda aimed RIGHT at them.

One of my favorite movie quotes: “You’ll drop dead and I’ll go to your funeral in a red dress!” Loretta Castorini (Cher) in Moonstruck. That line has been running through my head for about a year now.

I replied to that tweet thusly:

Oh, I think he’ll resign when impeachment looms.

He did it to humiliate her.

Yep, it’s not as sexy as impeachment, but winning in 2018, making him a fast lame duck, then kicking his ass in 2020 is at least realistic.

Coercion is a thing, but you’re adding an element of fear to the author’s story that she didn’t put there. She portrays the man as a whiny baby, but she makes zero indication that there would be any kind of “consequences” or violence if she refused. In fact, she indicates that the worst case scenario she envisioned…

Stop it. McConnell “immediately” called for an ethics investigation. Then Schumer did. Then Franken did after many other Congresspeople. I know you tried to walk this back, but you’re wrong here. People you admire behave in sleezy, sometimes terrible manners.

I have learned more about American history in the last few months than I ever learned in school. What is taught in the US public school system is whitewashed in every sense of the word. I would advise you to really dig in to learning about early American history, the years leading up to the Civil War and the war…

Sister. Woman. Negress. My pronoun is She. My past is Pink Oil Mosturizer, my present is Queen Sugar, my future is round trip ticket to Boule. I will see you at the cookout and I will vouch for the potato salad because I will make it myself.

I just want to put it out there how much I appreciate your comments in this thread. These kinds of conversations need to happen, so long as they are done with honest intent. I don’t blame those who are mistrustful one bit as much of the time, they are right.

I realize part of my white privilege is thinking each time I see one of my people in black face that it will be the last time. The outrage and humiliation will finally make us not consider it again. Unfortunately, this is not shocking. It will happen again.  

Anyone remember when Clarence Thomas’ wife left a crazy voicemail for Anita Hill and demanded she apologize for what she did to her family? I think Ms. Hill is used to getting less than sincere apologies but she’s too much of a dignified woman to say something.

Good shit my (brother/sister). I’ll be seeing you at the cookout, or at Aunt Keisha’s for Thanksgiving!

If the Democrats are putting Joe Biden up in 2020 they may as well concede defeat now. The best thing he can do is put his support behind a better candidate.

Creepy Uncle Joe got a pass on his past sins for 8 years and by 2020, this country could be in such a shambles that he could get right into the White House without breaking a sweat over Anita Hill mistreatment. I’m not saying that is fair, but nothing really has been fair since Obama left.

*Fucks for a little bit*

If I catch someone in Blackface, I’m not confronting them. I’m calling the police with an anonymous tip that they were acting strange and let the sparks fly.

“The combined intent of the couple was to portray how funny it would be for two political figures who were at odds with each other to go to a party together,”
