(17,757 posts)I suppose that in their defense, they just don't think that it is wrong to sexually abuse another person. They have probably all done it; except for Santos, I doubt that any woman lets that little troll within grasping distance.

in that 2017 special election but thankfully won by Doug Jones.
Previous senators in that seat include Jeff Sessions (Attorney General under former guy), Howell Heflin, and John Sparkman (1952 Dem VP candidate).

Trump SAID over 30,000 things in office that are proven lies.
Fox SAID things that were lies, and got hit with 700+ million fine for doing so. I fast Graham May stroke at the same moment as trump, thats my thought and prayer.

(18,426 posts)... then it would follow that jury trials, which are based on the votes of 12 (or fewer) random people, are also bad.

(6,698 posts)Apparently, Republicans are only concerned with law and order when its relevant to their obsession with other peoples genitals, control of womens rights, and when repressing others right to vote.

(58,373 posts)Of course, when they say that, what they really mean is exactly the kind of patriarchal abusive misogyny that Trump exemplifies.

Incredible! That's a word that fits Trump to a T.
I hope they settle the writers strike soon so I get some late show giggles.
