For my wife who works in Development here, it makes it a little extra hard for her to want to raise money for kids acting like that.

Unfortunately i believe he has already spawned a million little assholes that think they are superior to anyone who has different beliefs than them. Than their are the other million who feel that way but just don't express it. Equally as disgusting people imo.

I mean, I couldn't imagine treating any of my classmates like that....you work at a relatively small school which makes it worse. sounds like those protesting kids never got the ass kicking they deserved

You don't know how true this is. Probably telling you more than I can/should, but my mother-in-law used to work in Financial Aid here and some of the stories would make you want to vomit. Some of them would literally lose their shit because the University didn't want to pay for their study abroad AND spending money. Yup, some of them straight up get University-sponsored allowances. These are kids who marked the "$250,000+" on their family income.

I'd say this was pretty damn accurate.

Unfortunately, Trump was the only non-establishment guy on the ticket so he's the one that they pushed through to make an example. It was a huge statement if you ask me. It pretty much said, we'd rather have this loud mouth racist, sexist con artist than your normal establishment guy who's going to continue to fuck over the middle class people.

People know good and well if Clinton had been elected, that TPP was going to be passed. At least with Trump in office, the TPP is officially dead. If you see it passed, you know Trump sold out to corporate America.

This is why I was surprised Bernie didn't get the nomination. He's another outsider, decent guy, but nope...

Sigh. Hopefully I'll deal with this soon enough because it's exhausting.

This is the worst part. The right guy was there. FU Trump. FU Hillary.

The southern black vote fucked Bernie from getting that nomination. I can't for the life of me understand why they wouldn't vote for a guy who was arrested for protesting civil rights or who walked with Martin Luther King over a woman who's policies led to high incarceration rates for blacks.


The sad part of it is, the southern votes shouldn't really even mean anything because they are in deep red states which will always go red in presidential elections.

Well remember, the Clinton team AND the democratic national party were working together against Bernie.

IMO the dems need to kick Clinton, her entire team and much of the dem national party to the curb. This is an embarrassment to lose to effing trump.

Now, don't get me wrong, he had a lot of nut-job ideas too...

Maybe unattainable ones. He would have fought the corporations tooth and nail. He would have left gays and minorities off of the shit list and treated them like effing human god damned beings. He also looks exactly like Larry David which is always a plus. He would have done good for the environment too. Minor details.

This is the only silver lining I can see right now...

While I fully expect him to fail spectacularly, I'll be the first to eat crow if he doesn't. Maybe next time the country will find someone who has it right.

Time to start posting more on football. This is the most I've cared or talked about politics in my entire life. Just dragging me down. Will catch you guys on the other side on this one...

Have you seen the video of the grade schoolers chanting build the wall yet? I wonder if they are old enough to differentiate between illegal and legal mexican children who have just as much right to be here as them and their immigrant great grandparents? Probably not. Hope there isnt one in that cafeteria?
The seed of hate has been planted. Im not saying their has not been prejudice before. Not at all. But Trump whether inadvertently or not, has given it a voice. It is scary.

I thought this was very good.
