Speaking out to Ivanka, a hate enabler, is what we all should be doing [View all]

This woman supported her Daddy who:

-again wants to put Muslims on registries
- wants to put Latinos in camps and send Dreamers them back to lands they dont even remember - take away healthcare from 20 million people
- grab women's pussies and walk in on naked 15 year old beauty contestants

What don't some of you get about these are not normal times? Trump is not Romney, McCain or even GWBush. He is a Cheney or worse. His daughter Ivanka supported him, enabled him, sits in on meetings with him. We need to make this country so uncomfortabke for them that they will be be like Bush and Cheney, not able to show their faces ever again without harassment. That is what resistance means. What this man did today to Ivanka on that plane is what resistance looks like. People are all pissed abiut Ivanka's children hearing this, while she supports sending other kids to camps. Are you people kiddng me, being upset about this?? We should be lauding this guy. Grow a damn spine!

And stop comparing apples and oranges, asking if we would like if this was dine to Chelsea Clinton. What would they yell at Chelsea? "Your mother wants to expand healthcare?" Yeah. Thats big.,
