Hating Donald Trump isn’t enough – we need to talk about why Hillary Clinton rules (Not satire)
The Manchester Guardian ^ | September 20, 2016 | Lindy West

Posted on 09/20/2016 10:28:25 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

If we care about our future as a non-blown-up planet, it’s time to stop treating the Democratic candidate as if she’s barely better than a literal white supremacist

If there’s one thing Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign has taught us it’s to view every depraved moral nadir as a challenge, not a destination. You think this is bad? Wait for the tangy mouth garbage he’s got stewing for tomorrow. Then forget about it instantly – everyone else will! I heard state department employees sometimes email each other!!!

Just this week we’ve seen Trump metabolise the Chelsea bombing into an incoherent anti-Clinton smear before the shrapnel had even settled. I’ve listened to my Muslim friends express their fear of leaving the house after Monday’s unconscionably irresponsible emergency alert, the kind of histrionic racial profiling Trump vows to amplify. We’ve read up on Trump’s alignment with an anti-abortion extremist group, and his avowal to “get very tough” on “thing[s]” apparently including freedom of expression. We’ve clocked Trump’s pin-drop silence on the shooting deaths of Terence Crutcher and Tyre King, though – don’t worry – over the summer he promised to make the streets safer … for police. Trump “joked” (again!) about the assassination of Hillary Clinton. His son compared refugees, who are human beings who need our asylum to live, to Skittles, which are sweets....

This Lindy West loon can ESAD.

And from the looks of her enormous girth, in all likelihood she will.

Lindy doesn’t hate Trump. She really hates herself instead, but can’t come to terms with it yet.

Forgive me if my psychobabble makes you roll your eyes. :)

I’ve dated similar, if slightly smaller women. Everybody has something going for them is what I found. But they were conservatives mostly, not loons like this.

We need to talk to Lindy about what happens when it becomes clear to the peasants that the Sheriff of Nottingham, Sir Guy of Gisbourne and King John are running things.

Oh My Gawd what desperation. Moonbatish kookery at it’s worst.

At Oakwood homes they said our sales manager was “Gravel S King.” Get it?

“Forgive me if my psychobabble makes you roll your eyes. :)”

Nothing to forgive.
There’s a lot of self-hatred out there.
Too often the idiots who hate themselves spew it out in our direction.

Every time I hear this kind of garbage I’m reminded of a line from an Eagles song: I’d like to find your inner child and kick it’s little ass. Get over it!

Ridiculous people.

Also, a quick search on this Tyre King also points out factoids about Satan as king of Tyre.

Or something like that. I don’t remember this in the bible.

But Tyre King... I mean.. that’s so sad. So young. 13 years old, with a BB gun. And the lowest prices in the tri-state area.

Been a little too long since Lindy had a real man, I fear...

The poor, frustrated thingy is a hormonal stew of cottage-cheese stretchmarks and emotionally blathering irrational hysterionics. Good grief, someone get this "Plus-Sized" Twinkiepotamus a zucchini, STAT!

Well holy sh$t Lindy, if Donald’s such a white supremacist, why is he the one going to the black churches and visiting their districts while your guy is not?
