Progressives, part 3...

Has nothing to do with Trump. People have thought that for, probably, as long as I've been alive. That means conservatives and liberals. Principles often have the side effect of not having any personal gain.

Besides all of that, what exactly is so wrong with wanting to see people do better for themselves after a period of time? I'm going to guess that most people who have had to use some sort of welfare and then are able to get off of it are quite proud of the fact. IMO it is not a shame to have to use it, it is a shame to stay on it.

Thank you.

What would you prefer to have done on it?

Trump is the biggest shitposter in the history of twitter, and you're whining because someone called him a motherfucker? 

Spock is as bad as the people that run Occupy Democrats.

Yep.  Pretty sure one of the best ways to MAGA would be to go back to a time before Twitter, when Trump just seemed like a fairly ostentatious, albeit mercurial, business mogul.

LOL, if he wasn't POTUS you'd think he'd have to be awfully close to a ban by now, don't you?

Btw, Trump is an absolute jackass.

Who gives a shit?  If y'all don't know this girl though, she's vying to be as dumb as AOC, and an anti-semite. 

Twitter has been interesting lately. Apparently Rand and Ron Paul are Russian operatives/Nazis and libertarians are white supremacists.

Also, the people going after AOC for her college dance video are dumb. Her ideas are bad, not her ability to have fun.

I think it was one person who posted it, and then everyone shit on that person. I follow a large contingent of conservatives who strongly dislike her, and all defended the video and actually made her out to be more normal.

She has so much more that deserves shit on (like pretending to have grown up poor) than a stupid video.

Yeah but Breakfast Club is a decidedly white, suburban flick.....so shouldn't she be apolgoizing for cultural appropriation?

This is also an absolutely terrible take:

Pretty sure people have gotten it for less, so yeah, I think so.

Wonder if that will happen after he's out.

That's not going to play well down front with the DNC, I won't think.

Shit!  They made us!  Someone must have infiltrated one of our super secret meetings.

As a person, she seems fine and normal.  I'm pretty sure I did plenty of embarrassing shit in college that someone has record of somewhere.

To preface, I think Pence is a spineless boob.

However, he seems like he's plenty comfortable with it.  I'm not sure what this guy is watching, but I think he's looking for something that isn't there.

Pence's default expression is "dude suffering from extreme constipation", so I don't know I'd agree with a person saying he looks notably "uncomfortable" in a particular setting. Looked about the same as he does in most photos I've seen of him.

Seemed to be over the eight years before Trump, so I'm not sure why you'd think it'd change just because YOU like the current guy.

I believe Pence is somewhat spineless to never speak out against some of the BS Trump spews. However, there was nothing "uncomfortable" appearance wise when he was swearing in the said senator. Also, just because one believes in the Bible and that homosexuality is a sin, doesn't automatically make one homophobic. 

That'd be like saying that his belief on eating dinner with a female colleague alone is wrong, so that means he hates single women. You may disagree with his belief, but his belief doesn't lead to "he hates said people" logically.
