With the exception of Barack Obama, I have been voting against presidential candidates my entire life. Always forced to choose the lesser of two evils. The same will hold true in the upcoming presidential election.

Once again you are presuming to know what is in the hearts and minds of black people. You’re like all of the Bernie Bros who have coined black people as low information voters. I am offended by that as well as your use of the pejorative word “they”. We are not “they”.

I agree with everything that you said with the exception of your last sentence. Bernie does not have a snowball’s chance in hell of becoming the Democratic Party’s candidate for president of the U.S. 

How do you know what life experiences this woman has had?  Splain that to me, Bernie Bro! 

Not holding my breath waiting for this to happen!

I found it interesting that Bloomberg promised he “won’t offer confidentiality agreements to resolve claims of sexual harassment or misconduct going forward” but not that he stop his deplorable behavior towards women. Just saying.... 

Pat Houston@AllAboutTheMoney should be ashamed of herself.

Bloomberg’s ads are running nonstop here in NYC and each one is a goddamned fucking lie. 

And while we watching and waiting for Donald Trump to pull Putin out of a hat...Ivanka and Jared have taken in approximately 135 million dollars during their second year as aides to Trump. So much for the “sacrifice’ that the couple has made to join Trump as his “unpaid” aides.

Zimmerman needs to be locked up in a zoo and forced to subsist on a diet of Skittles and gorilla piss. 

My pleasure.

Mmm...interesting thought.

How’s this for “outdated”? “What a strange creature is a laughing fool, as if a man were created to no use But only to show his teeth”.

Whelp...the homeless Splinter bros have succeeded in colonizing The Root’s political commentaries. I absolutely hate the way that they always manage to hijack the comments’ thread.

I’m sorry that you’re homeless now that Splinter has bought the farm but you really need to shut your pie hole. 

My temperature rises every time I hear someone LGBTQ as a “life style”. My response to this is “it’s not a choice, it’s a life...you  fucking moron”.

When it comes to the touting of increases in employment, I want to know if these jobs are living wage jobs in addition to health care benefits? 

I’m happy to let reporters do the fact checking. My job is a lot easier. If Trump’s lips are moving or his tiny fingers are tapping...he’s lying. 

“More stupid than evil”? They are both..

These arrests and convictions are a good start but keep in mind that for every rat that you catch there are 50 more that you don’t.
