Well, I’m not a woman, but that’s not an insult in any way. Considering she’s the first woman to successfully run a presidential campaign, that’s quite a nice thing to say 🙂

Which is why Hillary won the campaign-- winning Georgia, South Carolina, Texas and Utah in the process-- and Democrats gained control of the House and the Senate. Obamacare is also a rousing success, our relationships with our allies have never been better, we’ve not become embroiled in any more foreign wars during Obama’s presidency and millions of Americans have gone back to work, thus leading to a decrease in the unemployment rate, instead of millions of Americans dropping out of the labor force, thus leading to a drop in the unemployment rate.

:rolleyes:

Should I continue? I shouldn’t have to. You’re just as-- actually more so-- guilty of what you try to accuse us Trump supporters of.

Yes, we know. You’ve found some #nevertrumpers who have been unashamed and open in their hatred of Trump and his supporters, and were throwing parties to themselves over the prospect of them being “right”.

Congrats!

I found that article on the site you provided. Under tingle media section. Now, why would the official site link an article that is inaccurate?

You stated very clearly that you were holding \*\*iiandyiiii \*\* personally responsible for unknown statements by unknown persons about “imagined violence from the right”.

Your identity is that of a (black) conservative. So how are you going to enjoy donnies presidency? He has been humiliating and embarrassing you for a year and a half and it’s going to get a lot worse as long as he doesn’t collapse out of twitter and rage fatigue.

Kellyanne already said she is using alternative facts, and donnies promise to drain the swamp only meant corruption and dirty dealing that makes the clintons look like a lemonade stand. This is after two days in office, one of them a fucking Sunday!.

So you’re saying “yes I’m an asshole, but I don’t want to think of myself as being in the same boat as everyone else because I’m a “special” (black) conservative or something.”?

You know the thrill of that wears out? You are investing time in typing here. But your losing any notion that says your an actual person, and not just someone dancing on your own grave, so how long before no one is listening?

Would I prefer elevated discourse from everyone? Yes I would. Are my preferences going to become reality? No. So as long as people choose to tit some will chose to tat. Ridicule seems to be an effective rhetorical weapon and that’s why we see both sides engaged in it.

And please don’t employ the fallacious reasoning of mistaking an explanation for an endorsement.

That’s right, I live in Lala land, and all this anarchisic town burning rioting just did NOT happen. These claims are about as true, as when Trumpty Dumpty claimed billions of ayrabs were partying in the streets of New York after the 9/11 attacks. That didn’t happen either.

I have this image of Trump turning red and literally having to be restrained from going after a journalist. This will be seen as a Presidential first, but surely at some point in our long history with crazy Presidents, ONE of them had to be restrained at some point. My money is on Andrew Jackson.
