For any political stripe, stamping a political sticker on your business is kinda stupid up front.

(22,480 posts)They are stupid and authoritarian and see things in black and white.
I don't think they've changed themselves. I think they are just closing because of the backlash and think all those people who responded are bad people.
We really need better schools and we need to teach logic. It's appalling that a person could grow up so easily brainwashed.

(13,081 posts)Im a particular fan of how we should all respect President Trump... But TV show hosts and entertainers should either shut up or dont know what theyre talking about.
Particularly because the rest of it is so full of stupid.
He didnt learn anything, either. All I did was say I liked the president and the troops.
