will there be any disavowing of the misogyny on display?


Hopefully Trump condemns it, that way we get a double dose of hypocrisy.

I said he's a neocon shill. He complains about them, then will immediately bend over backwards to defend them and shill for neocon values anytime anything even remotely representing something close to socialism comes up.


TIL opposing socialism and big government makes you a neocon shill. :lol:

He hasn't done anything but suck up to the establishment since Trump was the GOP nominee.

Oh, my bad.

People who understand basic economics snatched up the fightfor15.com url and dedicated it to opposing a $15 minimum wage, and links to videos of businesses and people negatively impacted by an increased minimum wage.

Quote
Most Economists Say a $15 Minimum Wage Is a Terrible Idea.

According to an independent survey conducted by the University of New Hampshire, over 80 percent of economists believe a $15 minimum wage will have a negative effect on jobs for less-experienced employees. Even former economists from the Clinton and Obama administrations have used phrases like "extremely risky" to describe a $15 minimum wage.

The only thing I'd change about my campaign? I'd win! Defiant Hillary defends her failed run for President saying she was subjected to 'unfair criticism' because she's a woman
Hillary Clinton has returned to Wellesley College, where she studied in the 1960s
Asked by a sophomore how she'd have changed campaign she quipped: 'I'd win'
Claimed she was the victim of sexist treatment during the election campaign
Three months after losing to Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton is still struggling to come to terms with her defeat but at least she can laugh about it now.

She was invited to her alma mater, Wellesley College, last night and when asked by a sophomore: 'What would you change about your campaign?' she quipped: 'I'd win.'

But she then went on to play the blame game, suggesting she only lost because she was a woman.

She's right, the coverage was biased because she was a woman. If Donald Trump had health problems in the past, if he had multiple coughing fits in public, or if he lost consciousness and had to be dragged to a vehicle by Secret Service, the media wouldn't be questioning his health.






That's one reason I'm glad Trump won... we don't have to hear the endless accusations of sexism for 4 years.

Pelosi was on state of the union and majorly dodged this and after calling Trump the deflector in chief completely deflects and starts talking about the Trump tape

Democrats and the left need to hold each other accountable for their mistreatment of people and inappropriate comments made toward women as they would the right

Either you are against that behavior or you aren't. Consistency or don't bitch about the Trump tape.

with the epa pulling back on fuel efficiency standards it leaves a certain demographic of voters in an odd situation

do you celebrate having fewer regulations and paying for more gas as a result?
or are you upset that you'll end up paying for more gas as a result of a big govt agency pulling back?
