Do you think that people with economic woes really have the kind of money to pay for gas to travel, to buy little hats and flags that say trump on them? I don’t think so. I don’t think these people are desperate economically I think they’ve been deceived. Honestly I think these people are greedy for attention, uneducated. People looking for an exciting party! Something that gives them an identity. Yes, this is a gross generalization not all of these people are this way. There are educated people. People that believe they are Christians. It is this group I don’t understand.

Supposedly, Clarence Thomas’ wife helped arrange that. And yet, he caused yet another black man to be executed this week. SCOTUS is tainted, badly.

Such a good question. I just can’t understand how a person of color gets enamored with a party that despises them.

This fact about Thomas’ wife, which I believe is well substantiated, is absolutely outrageous.

People in my state are taking screen shots on those who posted on SM travelling to DC, Staying at the DT Hotel, and sending to the FBI. Reminds me of the Oligarchs and European princes at the Battel of Bull Run.
