      So, who would I rather trust? Folks such as Alveda King ... or you?

      Um, not you Daswani, not you Bonham, not you McKillop ...and not even you Gillanders.
      Maybe you might also consider trusting Carol Anderson, a black history professor from Emory University in Atlanta. I recommend her book 'White Rage' which was published last year by Bloomsbury. You should be able to get a copy at the Ottawa Library. Among many other things, Professor Anderson will open your eyes as to why Trump's campaign slogan "Make America Great Again" is a racist dog whistle.

        Why?

        Isn't Alveda King trust worthy?

          Ffs!! Can you pay attention for a change? Here's what I said:

          I never said or implied that Alveda King was untrustworthy. I simply suggested that you CONSIDER trusting Carol Anderson too, and then I recommended one of her books to you. If you don't want to read it then don't!! And don't twist my words.

          You mentioned MLK Jr. In that Wiki reference you linked re Alveda, doesn't it say that Corretta (sp?) King refused to endorse Alveda when Alveda ran for political office? What was that all about?

              I don't think so, Neil. Why don't you explain why you think Alveda King is noteworthy vis-a-vis Trump?

                  Well, I'd be more prone to include her if she were a regular poster on this forum.

                  But since you bring her up, she's bigoted garbage also. She doesn't even believe gay people should be allowed to get married. How backwards can you get?

                  So, who would I rather trust? Folks such as Alveda King ... or you?

                  Um, not you Daswani, not you Bonham, not you McKillop ...and not even you Gillanders.
                  Look, man. I never asked you to trust me. All I did was tell you that you're a piece of shit. Don't get things twisted. I'm not proselytizing to you. I'm not trying to earn your trust. I'm just reminding you that you're a piece of shit.
                  everytime it hurts, it hurts just like the first (and then you cry till there's no more tears)

                        Excerpt:

                        The book has now gone on sale early.

                        Mr Trump's lawyers had tried to block publication of Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House, alleging it contained many falsehoods.

                        But Mr Wolff said the president had "less credibility than perhaps anybody who has ever walked on Earth at this point".

                        He added that White House staff described the president as childlike because "he has the need for immediate gratification. It's all about him... This man does not read, does not listen. He's like a pinball just shooting off the sides".

                          Wow, The Donald struck again!

                          His off-the-cuff remark, 'people from s***hole countries', is all the ammo the Dems need to sweep 2018.

                          The only game saving move will be a raging economy.

                          We'll soon see what matters most.

                            I will take that bet. By impeached we mean removed from office or impeached a la Bill Clinton where he was impeached by the house but there was insufficient votes in the Senate to remove him. I don't think either scenario is likely without a Republican death wish.
                            Hey Vlad,

                            Bet still on? Money to go towards the Pugi fund.
