https://www.democraticunderground.com/100215696256and all the daily stories about "unruly" passengers this past year, I was reminded of Whinny Donny "wrestling" with CNN.
This was shortly after the Nov 2016 calamity and I was thinking that all the violence, and fighting, the "in your face" behavior and "fu*k you everyone I am doing what I please," came straight from this pathetic "leader."
Once upon a time we expected a decorum from elected officials. Yes, I know, I am a dinosaur..

I am always pleased that our current crop of leading Democrats are not foul-mouthed or pushy or any other obnoxious thing.

She believes that the reality TV shows, which normalize conniving and other bad behavior.
It models doing basically whatever you want with no empathy for any effect on the other person.
She has a point.
In a sense, Donny just took his reality TV show and brought it to D.C.
