What Kind of Man Calls a Successful Woman "Garbage?"

Garbage. To Trump, all women are less than valuable, but he reserves the "Garbage" word for a Black woman who has been elected to represent a district in a state in the House of Representatives. More than once. To him, such a woman is simply "Garbage" because she disagrees with him, was born somewhere besides the United States, speaks with a slight accent and, oh yes, has a good deal of melanin in her skin.

Garbage. I live near her district, but have never met her. I see her often on the local evening news, though. She frequently has something to say about what's going on in DC. She's intelligent, well-spoken, and very thoughtful in her comments on ongoing issues. Hardly garbage. Good-looking, too, although that's not really a qualification required of any politician. See Donald J. Trump for an example of a politician who missed the attractiveness aisle when being made.

Garbage. I think not. What I do think is that the real garbage is the one calling her garbage. If I could, I'd put him out on the curb for tomorrow's pickup. Not sure he'd fit in my brown wheelie bin, but they don't mind a little overflow. Yeah, that's what I'd do with that garbage.

He thinks he can get them back in line with this racist shit

This kind of talk is vile to most people, BUT maybe even to some people who voted for him. And that's the part he doesn't understand. He never had a mandate. Some of his voters actually expected him to "drain the swamp," get those evil pronoun liberals to shut up, and come up with a healthcare plan.

The GOPers are desperate

...and Rep. Ilhan Omar in particular. This is at least partly due to the malign influence of Laura Loomer on the Trump regime. Ilhan Omar is a favorite bête noire for Loomer. She made a phony "documentary" about Omar in 2019, with the assistance of Ali Alexander and Jacob Wohl.

At the DFL State Convention that we hosted in Rochester. I was a Walz Delegate . Ilhan came to our table and my impression of her was the same. Articulate, intelligent, sincere.

She won the 5th CD that Keith vacated to run for AG. The 5th CD has been in great hands since then.

Trump is the GARBAGE.
