Ted Lieu just tweeted a pic in response to Melania's jacket





In light of the spokesperson for the First Lady who said the "I really don't care do u?" message on the jacket FLOTUS wore wasn't a message, "it's just a jacket," I am sending the below picture.

It's not a message, 'it's just a t-shirt."

Also our adopted dog Abbot is super cute

Anyway, well played Congressman!

You would think that in a situation as the one the country is in, regarding the kidnapped children by the trump administration, that she would be more careful to not were a jacket with that message, the timing makes it obvious what she meant what the jacket says.

Poor taste or message? how about both?

And everyone knows it.

Because a black woman who was born in this country and actually spends her time helping children, gets significantly less credit than a white woman who entered illegally and pays lip service to helping children. That's how fucking racist we are.

In fact probably many fall in line with their dear leader and also admire strong man dictators. Pence is a weakling compared to Putin.

they were very well done.

One night I stopped by neighbor's car who had a dozen Trump stickers on it but had a spot that was unfortunately naked so I helped him fill in the space with the Trump/Putin sticker.

It fit in perfectly and looked like it was part of the intended scheme, and I mean perfectly.

He didn't notice it for weeks and I had a daily giggle thinking of all of the people who sat behind him in red lights and wondered about the odd sticker that the driver appeared to put on.

I'm really sorry I didn't get a Frank Underwood campaign bumper sticker (from House of Cards on Netflix) when I had the chance. It said "FU 2016" and that sentiment really lasted.
