SK, between you and your “sidekick” (flu/flu redux/bullishgurl/fat_lazy_union, etc, etc, depending on what day or time it is) who seems to have recently gotten into the habit of following you around here on your coattails, I just want to point out that the words, “slut” and “prostitute” (to describe Machado) were in both of YOUR posts . . . not mine.

BG. The irony of this is SK and I rarely agree on anything. Neither do harvey and I. And the same could be said about BrianSD and I. And yet, why all the sudden is one of us saying the exact same thing to you?
Maybe the problem isn’t everyone else. Have you considered, maybe the problem is you?
I can’t tell if you were always like this, or if somehow Trump brainwashed you into thinking half of the things you say is actually rational. Maybe it was just all bottled up, and after years of suppression, you now feel comfortable enough to show how you really think, because there is a public figure that as you say “isn’t concerned about being PC”… What you don’t realize, is this is beyond being PC. If you can’t tell the difference between when people are overly PC, and when someone is outright hostile/offensive, well no one can help you then.
As a rule of thumb, the litmus test is pretty simple. Is what I’m about to say something that I could say at work without the consequences of being fired? Ask yourself that very question in most of what you say these days. Trump can get away with his behavior, because he’s pretty important person. You aren’t, and can’t. You would be unapproachable by any other employer. You know that.
I said it before, and I’ll say it again. The people who are going to suffer the most from Trumpmania when it ends, is not Trump and his immediate family, regardless of what happens in the election. The people that’s going to suffer all the people that are just normal jane/joes that act and behave exactly like him in front of everyone else. This is beyond you being political. It about just basic rational thought process of any reasonably decent human being. I’m curious, what is your plan B , if Trump doesn’t win, and suddenly there’s all this backlash against everyone and everything that has been an outwardly offensive/insensitive jerk that has characterized his support base? What if he does win and leaves office 4-8 years later after Trumpmania is no longer prevalent and normal human decency has been restored as the defacto standard? You think people are going to all this behavior that challenges human decency?
