But then I read the second paragraph and laughed me arse off. Best chuckle I've had all day.
Ok. I’ve read his piece. I agree with his thesis.
She left out Trump is a poopyhead.
That “old friend” provides strong support for the idea that women’s suffrage was a mistake.
There are no male flibbertigibbets.
‘he is a “dumba”.’
I looked this word up. Matt Dumba gets a lot of hits; he’s a Canadian ice hockey defenseman.
The other major usage is:
Define dumba: a fat-tailed sheep of Bokhara and the Kyrgyz steppe.
Not sure what the woman was trying to say; it doesn’t appear to be an insult. Maybe a fat-tailed hockey player?
It’s beyond amazing how shallow the thinking can get among these types. But it can, and it does.
Trump is being made to pay for all of the stupid and mean-spirited things the Koch’s and others have pushed over the years. It makes no sense because Trump is the sort of Republican that these numbnuts have spent decades chasing out of the Republican party, but that seems to be what is happening anyway.
One thing that is legitimate fire is the idea that men should be able to opt out of maternity coverage, which will have the effect of probably raising costs on women alone. Everybody breathing has been part of this process, as a baby and hopefully as a parent. It is needed for the continuance of humankind. Everyone should bear the cost.
The Left is trying to make it look like the GOP hates women, and they exaggerate and often outright lie to make their point. I therefore would ask that the Republicans not make the job easier because of stupid policy positions. Especially at the behest of the cheap labor express, which appears to want domestic birthrates to fall.
If you want to pursue this, read YOU ARE STILL CRYING WOLF (About Trump “Racism”) and then tease your quarry with the antiTrump parts, then get them to read the whole thing.
This attitude has been molded for a while now. Government schools staffed by government employees whose livelihoods depend on bigger and more intrusive government, inculcate the little minds with positive thoughts about being taken care of for life, by a benevolent government. When the adult students are confronted by somebody who has no use for government, the only response is incredulity and anger. As a businessman bent on getting government out of the way, DJT is the embodiment of the enemy of America’s locust class.
Dear Roger,
That ain’t no friend.
I suggest looking in their Garage to see if there are any more Pods.
Sincerely,

His description of his friend is a perfect description, word for word, of most of my female family members, at least one of the husbands, a few of my male friends and almost all of their wives.
The only thing he missed is their "Trump is a bully!" reason they hate Trump.
If there is a way to break through their emotional investment in the media malware that they know to be so, then I don't know what it would be.
When presented with glaring examples that clearly contradict any of their "truths", they first tend to overreact with aghast and generally attack the messenger and/or the messenger's source(s).
Next, they generally will claim that the other side does it, too, but is much worse.
They will then back up this irrefutable truth by citing their accepted sources previously named by the author, which they of course trust implicitly.
I care about these people and so all of this has bothered me for a very long time, but you know what? If God is content to give them over to delusion, then so am I.
Jesus waits for us to come to our senses, so with my family and friends who know what ain't so, I guess I'll just try to be more like Jesus.
Response to the so called Friend:
Talk is cheap.
Make a list (with footnotes) detailing factual information and legitimate sources for every accusation including the Legality of the previous Administration’s actions that you support.
One requirement. Before taking the time to make a list, read the United States Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the Declaration of Independence to insure you have clarity.
When they at last shut up I ask them if that is all. If they take off again I wait them out. If they say that is all I ask them if they truly believe everything they have said is 100% accurate. If they answer yes, I then ask them why they believe it.
They have yet to give me anything besides "the man on TV said so."
I smile and say "so, back fence gossip?"
Live in a small town in Canada. Marriages and relationships have ended here, all on account of Trump winning.
