That's one of the really strange cultural phenomena in this country: this idea that we need to coddle the right.

The number of times I've heard nonsense along the lines, just keep saying that if you want Trump for another 4 years really highlights not only what snowflakes people on the right are, but also how everyone seems to tacitly agree with the perception that the right is full of snowflakes.

I guess we all just kind of suspect they're a bunch of insecure assholes and warn everyone else about what to say around them.

Yes. Conservatives should definitely find and vote into power a modern-day psychologically-damaged dictator who will kill millions of people because there exist some folks who will cross-dress in public.

Conservative logic is awesome, as are their own value preferences.

I just have to say, if you voted for Trump, I hope you are hurting. You deserve to be. I hope you're suffering in unimaginable ways. I'd hate to think you inflicted this moron on everyone else just for ____ and giggles.


Perfume, Donald Trump is not the root of the problem. Why make it all about Trump?

We probably wouldn't have been better off with Jeb Bush or Ted Cruz. With a different Republican candidate the Republicans would probably had a bigger Senate majority.

I don't think my posting history demonstrates I think it's all about Trump. He's just a talisman for right wing stupidity.

I don’t want anyone to overlook the fact that you said pedophilia and the sexualization of children is a “liberal sexual value.”
