I hate to think what boys and young men are learning from watching such behavior and how it makes girls and young women. Parents need to teach that this is not acceptable.

Tweet by Marlow Stern (@MarlowNYC) saying: “This is gross,” quote-tweeting Aaron Rupar. The embedded Rupar tweet reads: “Trump ignores a question from a woman reporter but says, ‘I just like to watch her talk. Good job. Thank you darling.’” Below is a photo of Donald Trump seated, speaking at a table with flags behind him, and captioned “Thank you, darling. I don’t know.”

When Aaron Fucking Rupar is doing more reporting than CBS News and The NYT

I think this was a plotline on the second season of The Newsroom

Trump's conversation with Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto is caught on a hot mic. Hard to tell exactly what they are talking about, but Subianto asks Trump about meeting Eric Trump and Don Jr, who supposedly have nothing to do with government while they run the family business.

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

Imagine how many Americans could afford their Obamacare premiums with the $40 billion Trump just gave to Argentina.

ALL of them. With money left over.

$40 billion.

His plans are illegal. The SF judge said the Trump administration’s position is “ready, fire, aim.”

They were grown men aged 20 to 40. Two Trump administration employees and a state senator from Vermont.

All leaders of the Young Republicans.

It will be dark earlier at 5 pm and it will be brighter when you get up in the morning.

Unless you wake up at 5 pm you should find it more light when you wake up.

I didn’t have room to state the obvious. You are talking to an attorney who has litigated cases under the Civil Rights Act, you arrogant prick.

Failing to capitalize the “b” isn’t racist. And I said “I’m learning.”

While you are over here shooting at your own friends, Young Republicans were just caught using the words f****t, retarded and n***** 251 times in a group chat, numpty.

Stay focused.

“Mary Lou (if indeed that is your name) you are a stupid little racist whose opinions now no longer matter because you have proven what a worthless excuse for a human being you are.
I think you're really a chubby Bernie Bro.”

Is this you? Ten insults in one sentence. That’s gotta beat your record.
