Robert Morrow is trying way too hard. He is also the Platonic ideal of a Trump voter.

“According to the spokesperson, the removal may have stemmed from confusion over Turner’s public versus private status: he was initially classed as a private individual, but the uproar over his recent sentencing has drawn him into the public sphere.”

Yeah, racial issues wouldn’t exist if those who are negatively affected by white supremacy would just shut up about it, right? And to compare what kinds of racist, misogynistic, and homophobic things FB regularly tolerates to their deleting a true statement about an actual convicted rapist is just sooo inappropriate,…

Trump: What’s San Francisco famous for again? Curry? I love Indian food! I love Indians! I deal with the Indians all the time.

1 loaf of whole grain bread with the most amount of grains?

Oh, he wants Trump Bread. The classiest, grainiest bread on the market. No Mexican buyers, please.

Probably Medicine, Eugene.

If we’re wishing (to put this in perspective, I am super cheap) I would pay $200 to see President Obama debate Donald Trump.

I can’t see a downside. Bernie is a pro, and he’ll dismantle Trump piece by tiny piece. Upside for the Dems, a much more public version of Elizabeth Warren’s Twitter war with El Drumpfo. If, by some longshot, Bernie became the nominee, he’ll have already embarrassed the Donald on a national stage. If the more likely…

Well, he is a self-proclaimed billionaire that won’t release his taxes to prove it.

I also grew up in rural KY in a Southern Baptist church, but somehow my family remained democrats when most evangelical Christians turned republican. In the words of my grandfather, “Republicans only care about rich people.”

This is an excellent piece, and very similar to my political evolution throughout my 30's.

Actually- I’m not white, I’m definitely not rich and a member of the lgbtq community. I didn’t have a fully formed ideology at 18 but I was raised to question and research information on my own.

I wish I could have been apolitical at 18.

For me it was Katrina. I remember the moment precisely, sitting in my parents’ kitchen while home for the weekend, and staring at black people who’d been sitting on a fucking bridge for multiple days, including children, and thinking “this would not be happening if they were white.” That was the first moment towards…

“If you’re not a liberal when you’re 20, you have no heart. If you’re not a conservative when you’re 40, you have no head.”

I don’t make a secret of my liberal politics to my neighbors, but I don’t broadcast them unsolicited, either. I’d rather wait until I have a solid reason to bring them up

It’s nice when people talk about how fiscally conservative their policies are and then when you point out that free birth control prevents expensive health care and welfare costs down the line, for people they don’t want reproducing anyway, or how free/cheap public housing for the homeless drives down spending for…

Loved this. It so so so sums up my life politically—I grew up in rural Kentucky in a very conservative Southern Baptist family. When I registered to vote when I was 18, I registered Independent, but still voted Republican with my parents. When I was a freshman in college I was on the email list for the campus pro-life…
