@JennaEllisEsq Please. He called our military suckers & losers. He mocked a gold star family & John McCain...a war hero. No, Mr. Bone spurs has no business breathing the same air as our military servicemembers. He is a national embarrassment.
"In a conversation with senior staff members, Trump said, 'Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.' In a separate conversation, Trump referred to the marines who lost their lives at Belleau Wood as 'suckers' for getting killed."

@BurgessMeredit4@JohnCleese Oh, but our own home grown terrorists, white supremacists & insurrectionists are ok? They are by far and away the bigger problem.
@murphyb849@Azi@MollyJongFast Ooooo, no, sorry, the award for biggest liar still goes to Trump, but he did have a big head start....and an even bigger microphone. George is a solid #2, though
@BurgessMeredit4@JohnCleese Oh, please. I'm certain nobody is forcing you to in anyplace funded by the government. And as an atheist, I've had to endure plenty of Christian nonsense, so pardpn if I'm not sympathetic. And if immigrants are represented in Congress, yes, they have a say in our conflicts.
@alkivari@BurgessMeredit4@JohnCleese It wasn't a dodge. It depends on the country & the individual. Are you coming fot a job? For better opportunity? Fleeing tyranny? Fleeing drug cartels? Who cares? The decision to emigrate is personal, and I am not going to question an individual's motives.
@MissnDemocracy I just don't get it. I LOVED baseball. Lived & breathed it through my childhood. I never EVER had a thought to have my Christmas picture in front of the tree with a bat & glove...Truly insane...
@alkivari@BurgessMeredit4@JohnCleese This country is FOUNDED on immigrants (last I checked, Native Americans were here first). We are called "The Melting Pot" for a reason. Different cultures, perspectives & attitudes aren't scary...they will only make us stronger in the long run.
When I tell young people about the Japanese American internment, they’re not going to grow up to be Japanese.
When I tell kids I’m married to Brad, they don’t suddenly ooze rainbows and turn gay.
They’re just learning about the world and others in it.
See how that works?
@GenXceptional@VP My point is...and has been...you cannot put the genie back in the bottle. The information age is here & has been for the last 20 years. There is no other way...it ushers in full blown globalization...like it or not. Accept it, or get out of the way of the rest of the world.
@GenXceptional@VP It was easier to do 100+ years ago. Between quick plane travel & the internet, we are now one world, like it or not. We need to start acting like it.
@BurgessMeredit4@JohnCleese No. He doesn't. He may want to maintain his culture, but that's different. Are you forced to eat Mexican (or whatever)? NO. Are you forced to wear a hijab or yarmulke? No. They just want to live in peace. Like the Italians & Irish 100 years ago. Let them.
