I am sure they will also look into how Hillary once gave a dirty look to a woman so it is important to know the truth!!

Ryan also said: “I mean, come on, clearly we should all be condemning domestic violence.”

That's the big take from the article. What a ****tard.

You know, of all the unprecedented idiocy of the Trump admin (colluding with Russians to win election, having lawyer pay off a porn actress he banged right after his 3rd wife gave birth to his son, etc) this Porter one seems most likely to stick. People on the right will forgive a lot of things. Racism, sexism, treason, bribery, corruption, etc. Coddling wife-beaters is maybe a bridge too far. Perhaps Flaggy, Fishy, Brent, Drew and Sic can chime in but it seems the old mantra of "I don't care what he does in his personal life as long as it advances our agenda" that drives conservative thought may not apply here. Right now, as best we can tell, everyone from John Kelly on down was told months ago about these allegations and continued to promote the guy's career until the black eye photo was released to the public. I mean, that's too much even for you people, right?

Its sorta like what happened to Roy Moore. Enough Alabama Goopers decided that a 30+ year old male creeping on 14 year old girls at the mall was too much even for their standards.

I don't think they care that much. You might get lucky and strip off some of the supposed "independents" but you're not going to dent the 33%. Misogyny is in their blood.

I think it will depend on the area. In Hicksville you wont see any change cause DEM UPPITY W'MEN ASKED FER IT GET BACK IN DA KITCHEN!!! I think in more enlightened areas it could be a bridge too far for them.

Speaking of the nimrods in the Trump Administration:

I was listening to a Jon Meacham interview last night and he described Trump and the GOP as the first time in history somebody hijacked a plane and the passengers sided with the hijacker.

That's brilliant.

It's not the coddling that bugs them. It's the ham-handed attempt at dealing with the fallout after the coddling was revealed.

Have the work for you all you want. Coddle them. But once they're found out, you need to dump them like a hot potato.

Roy Moore creeping on children was a bridge too far for about 15% of Republicans. There's no way wife beating sways a statistically significant number of Republicans. My god, the Bible is full of wife beating. (Actually, it's full of creeping on children, too. It's a nasty f-cking book.)

Don't strain your eyes looking for a conscience on the right. There isn't one. Everybody with an ounce of dignity took the train 20 years ago. All that's left are zealots, zombies, and the perpetually petulant who vote to hurt others because they have diaper rash.

But the thing is...it wasnt just the Right that voted for Trump. Think of how many stories we have heard about people who have been screwed by Trump who dont fall in into the classic Right Wing voter. Those are the ones that will be effected.

And that is good...cause every single vote in every single state matters now. Cleave off the 33% but get back as much of the rest as you can. 78K in three states decided the last election...

The Republicans have been making enormous gains for fifty years among white blue collar labor that used to be the core of the Democratic coalition. They did it by directly appealing to racial fears and resentments. As those white poor were made poorer and less hopeful by Republican policies, they became even more vulnerable to that reactionary message.

The Republican system is self-reinforcing. It feeds on fear and anger, and then the damage it does to the economy produces more fear and anger. It's a perfect machine.

White low wage labor is probably lost for two generations. That's not where we go to make the votes up. We need to drive up turnout among our real supporters, and that means moving farther left and terrifying Rover that we're coming with a Tobin tax.

If supporting BLM alienates people who aren't voting for us because they're racists, yeah, f-ck them -- they aren't our future.

Re: POTUS 45: 28 - Yo Memo So Stupid, Donald Renamed it "Eric"

Time to start looking for a new VA Secretary: https://www.washingtonpost.com/poli...cs-officials-about-european-trip-report-finds

Veterans Affairs Secretary David J. Shulkin’s chief of staff doctored an email and made false statements to create a pretext for taxpayers to cover expenses for the secretary’s wife on a 10-day trip to Europe last summer, the agency’s inspector general has found.

Vivieca Wright Simpson, VA’s third-most senior official, altered language in an email from an aide coordinating the trip to make it appear that Shulkin was receiving an award from the Danish government — then used the award to justify paying for his wife’s travel, Inspector General Michael J. Missal said in a report released Wednesday. VA paid more than $4,300 for her airfare.

The account of how the government paid travel expenses for the secretary’s wife is one finding in an unsparing investigation that concluded that Shulkin and his staff misled agency ethics officials and the public about key details of the trip. Shulkin also improperly accepted a gift of sought-after tickets to a Wimbledon tennis match, the investigation found, and directed an aide coordinating the trip to act as what the report called a “personal travel concierge” to him and his wife.

“Although the [inspector general’s office] cannot determine the value VA gained from the Secretary and his delegation’s three and a half days of meetings in Copenhagen and London at a cost of at least $122,334, the investigation revealed serious derelictions by VA personnel,” the watchdog concluded.
