I agree, but this is not one of them.

I'm sure you hope you're right.

Yep, the "coat hanger in the back alley days " may return soon under Trump.

One can dare to dream...

I'm sure you hope you're right.

It doesn't really matter to me since I don't have a uterus, but I'm confident in the Supreme Court's ability to interpret which laws are settled and which are not. There is simply no way abortion will ever become illegal in the 21st century.

Keep telling yourself that. It will make you feel better.

I bet you never thought Donald Trump would be President, either.

Trump winning did not shock me all that much since I knew Hillary was a flawed candidate and particularly after Brexit. I'm sorry if this upsets you, but abortion will never become illegal in this country. And as males, I don't think our opinions on women's reproductive care have much merit or should even matter at all since we don't have a uterus.

This is just stupid. But you are certainly entitled to your (stupid IMO) opinion.

As for the rest, time will tell. Again, I'm sure you hope you're right.

Yeah I dont get that either.

So, Trump goes on trial on Friday for raping a 13 year old...oh wait that was fake news (shocker, some of you are very gullible). What now? Recount! Oh, what, that's backfiring? Ruskies!

I'm popping some more popcorn.

I'm not sure that the Russian interference claims are on the same level as fake news about Trump raping a 13 year old or Hillary Clinton running a child sex slave ring out of the basement of a Pizza Place.

Here's what I don't understand about Trump: Many people who voted for him seemed to do some somewhat reluctantly, at least many of the people I know. Now that he is President those same people are seemingly not in favor of any oversight into what he is doing. They defend all his ridiculous cabinet picks, his complete lack of transparency, his nepotism, and his seeming lack of interest in the job.

How did Trump get this blank check? Is he really a President that we want to put that level of trust in? We still have no idea how he is going to structure his business dealings to eliminate conflicts of interest. He is bringing back the apprentice and will be executive producer (WTF?). It's one thing to vote for him because you think he is a better option than Hillary Clinton, I can understand that. It's another thing entirely to place him completely above reproach. That I cannot understand.

Once we pick sides, we really stick to it I guess.

To me a Trump presidency is like when Mufasa dies and Scar takes over. He introduces the hyenas as they slowly come out of the darkness and all the animals are like "whoa wait wtf is this about!?"
The hyenas are excited that's for sure.
