(3,980 posts)He's a RW "journalist".
I'm all for hanging any of these clowns' views around Trump's neck, but we need to be factually honest.
If someone has a link to him being an official spokesman of Trump, please share.

(28,836 posts)I'm not sure why people feel the need to make things up in cases like this. It undermines the message.
I suppose it's because some nobody saying it as CPAC is basically par for the course and wouldn't generate clicks and views.

(32,133 posts)If the clan thinks that little of her....what the fuck kind of family is this? JFC, I'd think Ivanka would have had something to say about where her mother was buried. They'll probably lose the golf course..... then what happens to her?

(20,591 posts)I have a nagging feeling democracy is already dead in the U.S.
I have absolutely no proof of that, but it's not something that would be announced beforehand, you know?

(20,591 posts)doesn't strengthen your point.
I was talking about after the November election. I also said I had no proof, just a nagging feeling.
Take a chill 💊 pill and get some rest. Maybe switch to decaf. 🤔

It is happening now, right in front of our eyes.
It is dying now, piece by piece and ongoing.

(10,481 posts)He's losing a war, not sure how he's directly rigged blue states. Democracy isn't dead "yet"
SergeStorms
(20,591 posts)Just like we didn't know how the NSA was data mining everyone in our country's cell phone calls, texts, emails etc.
We never know until it's too late and it's a fait accompli.
Like I said, just a hunch, a nagging feeling. Maybe I'll have to eat a lot of crow after November, but I've eaten crow before. Deep fried with salsa verdi, it's not all that bad.
Will it in the electoral vote? I think it will, but we will wait and see.

moniss
(9,056 posts)the country don't understand that they really mean all the way back to including Loving v Virginia. The Tennessee law that was just passed allowing officials etc. to not have to perform perfectly legal marriages that they disagree with is right there in keeping with the attitude of not recognizing existing marriages from another state.
TwilightZone
(28,836 posts)But I suppose claiming otherwise is the only way to get clicks and views. Some nobody making the remarks doesn't have quite the same impact.

(5,837 posts)and still today in many parts of the world, both "developed" and "undeveloped," marriage has ALWAYS been between two men:
A father
and
A husband.
For most of human history, women have had very little say in whom they married, when they married, and if their marriage included polygamy for their husbands. THIS is a fact. Women may have been necessary in the equation, but their function was almost solely biological, and their wishes, feelings, or desires were of absolutely no consequence.

They've been married since 2003 and devoted to each other. They could read the tea leaves.
