I also heard in the news that New Balance received a publicly posted endorsement from the KKK people's organization. The response to New Balance being 'outed' has been people burning their sneakers and posting that!

It is actually very personal for people. I have heard friends telling me they asked people to leave their house when they learned of their dump-man support.

produced by Mark Brunett (Survivor, The Amazing Race, etc.). He knew there was video of Trump saying sexist, racist things while filming The Apprentice, but he refused to release it and threatened anyone who did. I enjoy watching The Amazing Race, but no more.

that Ivanka sells her jewelry there. Or maybe it was Malaria. I don't remember - I just know that it's someone who Trump would like to groupe.

These are shows that have never held any interest for me. I can't understand why people view them in the first place.

Yet, good to add to the list for this thread.

but apparently a lot of people do, so when I heard Rachel mention it, it seemed like a good one to add. As for the other shows, I've always enjoyed The Amazing Race because it "took me" to places I'll never be able to visit.

I was under the impression "Melanoma" was the correct pronunciation.

I have never set foot in any one of those stores or purchased any of those products. They just never attracted me.

Our large extended family has decided to buy no gifts at all this year. Instead we will donate to Planned Parenthood, Southern Poverty Law Center and other organizations who can help fight this madness.

Plus, use cash for everything. Don't give the interest fees to the banks.

Although, I use a non-profit Credit Union. Thank God!

Like Dominos for example, (which I never use. In this city we have more than enough great pizza places that deserve our business more.)

There should be a day that all the groups of people Trump insulted should stay home from work.
