Sure; it was a stupid overreaction (though an equally dumb decision by Budweiser).

That has very little relationship to the point we're discussing.
Only because you say so.

Vulgarity and coarseness are beside the point. Of course Trump is vulgar. Of course he's coarse. Of course he's borderline nuts. But you don't have to agree with the right on every issue for the right to accept you into the camp. You can be pro-choice. You can be in favor of raising taxes, of increasing entitlements, of same sex marriage. It doesn't really matter that much. The ...[text shortened]... their fingers at anyone who holds any one of half a dozen positions that many of them probably hold.
Yup sideline the argument with a deft elites in white ivory towers refrain and you can ignore the whole weight of whats been said. Very unedifyng.

Name another election cycle where vulgarity and coarseness were pointedly part of the strategy. (Apart from Hillary.)

Both women were far more qualified than the Donald. As for "best"... what does that even mean?

Turns out, America does not want a female President. I don't know if America ever will at this rate because what party will take the risk to try again?
say wahaaa...?

LOLOL thanks for the mammories

Nobody does vulgarity and coarseness like Trump does vulgarity and coarseness. That's an entirely separate issue from which side will destroy you for maintaining one "unorthodox" position.

The elites in white ivory towers refrain is a worthy response to the "misogynism must be to blame when women lose" refrain.

So cancel culture is a left-leaning liberal thing?

You could have 5 PdDs and I could have left school at 14 and it wouldn't change the fact that the majority of educated people voted to remain.

Serious question. Why did you vote for Brexit, and are you still happy that you did?
There's been a lot of post brexiteering that says Farage and Johnson made a lot of bogus claims about how much better off Brits would be. Are you better off?

In the 2 instances that Trump was successful at the polls, he competed against a female candidate.

When you compare the female's performance with the male candidate of her party that was successful before her you find that her male predecessor was more successful at the polls.

So what's the reason?

America not ready to have it's top job filled by a woman? What other reasons are out there?
Hate to tell you,,,,,it is not about race or gender, it is about class now. Get in, man.

I am just not a guy who would entwine “vulgarity or ‘cooaaaarrrsseness into a post. Weird stuff. Should George Patton not have been coarse?

I'm not going to answer for Dive but the people who I know who voted to leave (which isn't many) did so because they thought the UK would have more control over their borders. Which I guess is true but it left a massive hole in the job market, which is now being filled by mostly Asian and African countries. Nothing wrong with that however try getting a non skilled worker into the country to pick fruit for 3 months...

Then there was the argument that the UK bumped a lot of money into the EU and never got anything back... Except for farmers of course, who had an unlimited supply or grants and loans from the EU and government in general. Now the EU money has disappeared they're crying poverty, while ruining the planet. Fecken farmers.

I'm sure there is and will be positives to come out of Brexit in the long-term, however giving up the freedom to live, work, travel in other EU countries and stopping people from the EU coming in for non skilled jobs is just daft.
