I didn't rape your.goat this week - ain't I fucking grand?

You're better in that regard than anyone who DID fuck his goat. Good for you.

Trump has announced (via Twitter) that he will not attend the inauguration of Biden.  Considering the circumstances of this week, I think that's probably a good thing.  It would have been much better for the country, of course, if he had acted like a big boy and conceded weeks ago and congratulated Biden, but that's not the universe we live in.  Hilary even congratulated Trump in 2016 and I'm pretty sure she would have rather eaten a pile of dogshit.

On the other hand, Trump is placing himself out of the way of any violence that may attend the inauguration. Let's hope this time the security is on point.

First Lady Melania Trump: Our Path Forward | The White House

FLOTUS Barbie of "I really don't care, do you?" fame made a statement.

Whoopdeedamndoo.

She's a victim in this because people are gossiping about her.  BooHoo.

At least she did mention the dead and offered condolences though I don't find that terribly heartwarming.  

Bimbo Barbie wants us to stop the violence...we're saved.  

I don't want to sympathize with her or anything, but I gotta give her credit: she sounded far more diplomatic and more like a statesman than her husband ever has.  The fact that she didn't tell the terrorists "We love you.  You're very special" automatically makes her better than Donnie.

Agreed.

But it's a damn low bar and you can bet she didn't write it.

That was enough and then some.

Spend some time in the deep south where they don't really hide it and you'll see.  I can't post on here the things thought and said by people I used to live around.

Then you have to realize that it's all over the country...it's just more visible in the south...at least it was until Trump made it okay to loud and proud about being a White Supremacist.  They whispers became shouts when the megaphone was handed to him.

There wasn't silence before.

I had a boss say that he loved his family's maid like his mother but he wouldn't sit down to Sunday dinner with her.  Of course the maid was black.  How do you say those two things in the same sentence without choking on your words?

I live in Alabama.  I was born and raised in Mississippi.  And I am white myself (not actually yellow with holes).  So I've been around racist people all my life, although the vast majority of them will argue they are not racists at all.  They make all sorts of tangled arguments justifying themselves, but in reality it's just about race.  I suppose they don't have the capacity to understand that when more people vote for a candidate, that candidate gets elected (speaking about Obama here), whether they like it or not.

In contrast, I know black people who were quite disappointed with Obama because he didn't do enough to improve the lives of black people.

1)  No, I don't expect she wrote it.  Still, it's better than anything Donnie would read out loud, whether he wrote it or not.

2)  Low bar, sure, but usually, when it comes to the Trump administration, they just look for the lowest bar they can find and limbo right the fuck under it.  This is one of the first times that hasn't happened.  Maybe Melania should have been on the Trump cabinet?

You are far more generous than I am. I think it was a hypocritical half assed measure that is a direct affront to her "anti bullying" mantra when she is married to one. And a bully who made his own VP a target for murder. If she truly meant it she would have divorced that sicko long ago.

I noted when I was in the military, especially training, not only one race against another race racism but, and I don't know how to put it gently...girls I trained with who were viewed with hostility for not being "black enough" by the other black girls.  It was eye-opening for me to come from a place of 99% white people to people of every color and from all over the place and to witness the things people used to separate themselves with.
