His moment of clarity. But it's just a moment. Just waiting for the next dose to kick in . . . .

Uh, the First Amendment's guarantee of free speech allows you to do that, Pammy Jo Blondi. Faux outrage sowing division. It's so passΓ©. Your Trump was just cheering General Robert E. Lee, a traitor to the U.S., and MAGA flies Confederate Battle Flags. I suppose you're suing them as well . . . .

Say it out loud and watch Trump pardon her within a day.

Resort to censorship of "odious" views is the hallmark of someone who does not believe in the fundamental tenets of liberal democracy. That is Trump's approach. It's sad to see any progressive adopting that, getting down in the mud with the swine. Lie down in pig shit, come up covered in pig shit.

Objecting to a white nationalist speaker and illegally preventing him from speaking are not the same from a free speech vantage point. People concerned about speech they don't like could do all of us a favor by channeling their energy into persuasive responses, not calling for repressive censorship.

Pammy Jo Blondi is a stooge robot programmed by Stephen Miller. I hope she's disbarred.

They'll miss hunting endangered mammals on safari with Elon's son, X. And their daddy will take their X posting privileges away because Elon was disloyal to The Trump Family. No wonder they're crying.

Everyone who knows more than one narcissist knew this wouldn't end well. There's not enough air in the room, let alone on the planet, to oxygenate those massive, fragile egos.

Naw, you weren't doing it different on the West Coast. These books were all over the place back then. I read JLS when I was about seven in the 1970s. In Detroit. BTW, seven is a good age for reading JLS.

If he tries to cut their endowment, it's only fair that they should cut his.

I don't know. I have no room for anything but fear for the fact that he holds the launch codes for one of the most potent nuclear arsenals on earth. And is prone to make snap decisions like an impulsive toddler without its binky.
