You won’t find a more polite and cultured guy than Mitt Romney.

What did THAT get us?

Dear Miss Manners,
If someone makes a vulgar comment to one person in a private conversation, and that conversation is subsequently betrayed to the public for money, does this convey a lifetime sentence on the commenter?

Once an apology is made by the commenter for a private statement made 10 or 15 years ago in the context of a private locker room banter session, is there nonetheless a lifetime of social ostracism to be endured?

Is it proper retaliation for those outraged by vulgarity to practice even greater vulgarity publicly and in forms such as wearing genitalia on ones head and shoving wet menstrual pads into the mouths of bystanders? What pray tell is proper etiquette?

Does social financial and other forms of ostracism and revenge also extend to the family members of the commenter for “ standing by him” ( please define the alternative ) and for how many generations is it proper etiquette to ostracize and try to ruin them? May the preschool of the commenters grandchild be targeted?

The progressive left is writing new etiquette rules here so we seek your gentle opinion.
Sincerely

This is a left-wing approach to bemoaning the loss of manners that has as its subtext that President Trump is rude. It seeks to make fun of people who defend Trump in spite of his rudeness. It is not written as an objective piece about manners.

Is Miss Manners a drag queen?

Miss Manners has always had a blind eye to progressive barbarianism. Looks like things haven’t changed.

Demanding that others must adhere to newly invented arbitrary rules of etiquette is a new form of bullying.

Having had eight years of a dignified president with an exemplary family life, people are hungry for the pleasures of scandal.

This sentence says it all. Miss Manners worships Obama.

What's to discuss? Miss Manners is a #NeverTrumper.

Who the hell is she talking about? 0BAMA???

That creepy faggot with the bitchy wookie for a "wife" and a couple of perpetually disgruntled spawn was hardly an example of "dignified". "Exemplary"? Exemplary of what, exactly? A bad example is as "exemplary" as a good example.

“Having had eight years of a dignified president with an exemplary family life, people are hungry for the pleasures of scandal.”

“Exemplary family life”???

What does anyone know of Obama’s family life? And does an exemplary family life, even if true, entitle Obama to destroy the United States without even a little criticism?

What is scandalous about Trump’s family?
