In his defense, maybe that was the word the callers used? Oooof.

Totally, people saying it's a mix up a few words... and I'm sitting here hearing the N word with a hard R in its entirety.

This is Megan K on digital, not on a public network, so it probably wont' mean anything. He was speaking to his own, and there isn't a big network board to review anything. It's not like it's illegal to say it. Just another drop in this insane bucket we have to deal with until Nov.

In the only defense for him I can think of, does anyone say, "Haitian N-words"? That'd be weird? He definitely has an N there though.

Tweets don't show for me all the time. I have to refresh a few times before they do.

SNF just ended and the last 5 commercials in a row were political ads. Please make it stop.

Lol. When NC wasn't a battleground state, I was mad we weren't getting that sweet ad money. Then I realized how naive I had been.

My favorite is R's to telling poor white people that poor brown and black people are the enemy. Like it's not the top .01% of the R's hording all the wealth and paying ridiculously low taxes.

Bad news for Harris: In October 2016 I had shoulder surgery, and Trump won.

Tomorrow I have hip surgery.

I've had a lot of free time post surgery these past two days, and The Trump Show has gone off the deep-end. The dude has completely lost it. Just wow. At least one party had the decency to retire their candidate.

Filled out my absentee ballot. Because of what Ohio republicans did when the voters passed weed by a big margin (they've been doing their best to delay and negate the results of the vote) I voted straight-D for the first time ever.

Except for President. Wrote in Fetterman because fuck the big 2.

I did that last time. Will probably do it again as long as they keep putting up people like Trump, Robinson, and Morrow in our state.

If any celebrity endorsement sways your vote, you shouldn't be allowed to vote.

If your vote is swayed by ICP, you should be put in assisted living.
