You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid. Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis.
There's just so much truth to that.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

In any case it's not just about Trump being a vulgar pig, but just in this Stormy Daniels' story Trump used the playbook of intimidation/silencing tactics against her--many of them very similar to those that other powerful public figures such as Weinstein have used.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

The only reason evangelicals support Trump is because he has an 'R' next to his name. Evangelicals have concluded that the Republican party promises to deliver those things of most interest to evangelicals, small, pro-religion government, conservative justices, and moral and social conservatism. It's all about self-interest. The evangelicals would vote for Zippy the Pinhead if he had an 'R' next to his name. It's more about party loyalty than it is about character.
I'm BEGGING Melania to refer to Stormy as a bimbo.
PLEASE !!!! The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Right, because there are absolutely, positively, no independent voters.
