Trumpsplaining - he’s just mad at the Hollywood elite for supporting Biden and Obama

Whataboutism - this is no worse than what they said about Charlie Kirk

Truthiness - he’s in shock like the rest of us, but just expresses himself differently.

Me: he’s a sociopath!

If it walks like a sociopath and talks like a sociopath. Take a guess. It’s a sociopath!

I won’t go get my mail without my ID in my pocket - and I was born and raised here. Soon, ANYONE black or brown will need to carry their “papers” at all times!

I teach at a university in Connecticut. Giving my last final exam on Monday. Glad the semester is ending, because I’m tired of day after shooting conversations since Columbine. Just had a Sandy Hook student (not in classrooms were kids were shot; but he lost a best friend) last Spring. So tired!

I’m an older Gen X’er who has lived through every energy, financial, technological, and political crisis since the 1970s and limping (fingers crossed) to the retirement finish line. I want my participation trophy they started handing out to the Millennials!

One day, even his most hardcore supporters have to grow tired of his shtick… right… maybe?

We got skipped over! Baby boomers wouldn’t share power and resources and the media got obsessed with writing about the needs and interests of Millennials in part because of the changes in the technological landscape. They are already talking about the first Millennial President. What about ours!?!?
