Maybe they need to find one of those safe spaces they like to make fun of so much if someone's words are going to upset them that much. Funny, I thought they were so dead set against political correctness, but they won't let someone speak their mind? Reeks of the censorship they seem to spot everywhere from the left!

You want to talk about basic projection, the right and alt-right in the USA should be the Ur-example.

They're ignorant losers who can't take responsibility for their own failures. So they do exactly what Cheeto Benito does, and demonize anyone not white, not Xtian. As if Dump was Xtian, which is such a fucking joke.

16 years later I am seeing the exact same thing that the media did in the w bush v Al Gore
race. In both cases you had or now have a very highly qualified candidate and other side you had
or now have a person who in no way should be anywhere around the White House.

You can't trust Hillary and look @ her emails too = Al Gore said he invented the internet and he
is kid of boring too. Liberal media =

Trump usually hires foreigners and then doesn't pay them. Just so you know what your hero is like.

whichever way it is, Trumpy's history indicates he will use the cheapest labor he can find and then stiff them.

Kudos EarlG (Original Post) - for keeping the issue alive - we all need to focus on the truth - the truth - the WHOLE TRUTH - and NOTHING but the TRUTH - the LIGHT will ultimately come through - so to those who faltered about even mentioning or calling attention ie. calling a spade a spade let us see the light. Have a nice Day!

Deplorable.

synonyms: disgraceful, shameful, dishonorable, unworthy, inexcusable, unpardonable, unforgivable

Why say all that, when deplorable is so perfect!
