Democratic congresswomen wear white to send a unified message to Trump, proceed to give him a standing ovation. Am I the only one who thinks this is totally weird?

I was more perturbed when a bunch of so called adults, elected officials, started chanting USA USA in unison.David wrote:Democratic congresswomen wear white to send a unified message to Trump, proceed to give him a standing ovation. Am I the only one who thinks this is totally weird?

Popular culture is hostile to anyone who supports Trump or holds any right-leaning positions.Culprit wrote:^^What a crock, it's a two way street of hatred. That's republican spin.
The left is in charge of our cultural institutions. However, the dominance they possess in the culture doesn't necessarily extend to political or economic dominance.
I don't know anyone who hides their support for leftist candidates such as Sanders or Ocasio Cortez out of fear of receiving vicious backlash.

It's all bullshit, I see examples from friends in the US post shit what the right wingers do and vice versa. It depends on which way you lean to what you believe is true. Same bullshit here. You love Trump he can do no wrong, you hate trump he is a Russian stooge.
Come August my Son marries his US girlfriend. She hates Trump, her parents love him. So a fun wedding.

Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Stui, Dad is Chinese, Mum is Brazilian even though they have been US Citizens for over 20 years. They are wealthy and yes Erika is a uni graduate and has a degrees in a few things. Loves Australia / Melbourne and is a barista at the moment. I won't be able to match their wedding gift (a House in Essendon). I said I would buy a pot plant for the new house.
