Nitpick. Trump use the term “the blacks”. As in “the blacks” love me!

[He actually thinks he’d be more successful if he were black–I shit you not](http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2016/06/donald-trump-black-man-advantage):

And, I think, sometimes a black may think that they don’t really have the advantage or this or that but in actuality today, currently, it’s, uh, it’s a, it’s a great. I’ve said on occasion, even about myself, if I were starting off today I would love to be a well-educated black because I really believe they do have an actual advantage today.

Someone in another thread pointed out, though, his companies wouldn’t hire him if he was black.

Lynne Patton also has me blocked on Twitter.

Strange, I was just trying to offer her some advice by telling her to watch her purse around Katrina Pierson, who’s not only thrifty, she’s shoplifty.

I don’t like Trump, but insulting his wife because she was a stripper is just prejudiced.

Pointing out that she was a stripper is not an insult, it’s just a fact. I don’t see anything wrong with me pointing out the double standards.

So naming her previous job is an insult and is prejudiced? :dubious:

I really hope, though, his weirdly conspicuous DT support will give Chachi’s career a good kickstart (or defibrillation I mean), and starts getting script offers with Meryl Streep, Daniel Day Lewis, Christian Bale, Natalie Portman, that Christopher Walz weirdo.

Hey! Calling out Melania for being a stripper and a hooker IS prejudiced!

I will be a great day for all the strippers and hookers when Melania is sworn in as the first stripper and hooker to be First Lady!

Just another thing we should all be grateful to Trump for.

\*New boy in the neighborhood  
Lives downstairs and it’s understood.  
He’s there just to take good care of me,  
Like he’s one of the family.

Charles in Charge  
Of our days and our nights  
Charles in Charge  
Of our wrongs and our rights

And I sing, I want,  
I want Charles in Charge of me. \*

It is a strange barometer of age, the way Scott Baio is known. To some, he is from Happy Days, to others he is from Charles In Charge, and to the youngest he is from Who In The Hell Is Scott Baio??
