If you're in a "horrible" situation for 4 years, do you plan on just taking it without making an attempt to change your situation? Ride it out to 8?! -

QuakerOatsA waitress at a Washington D.C. restaurant received a very generous tip and a warm message on her receipt from three men who were in town for President Donald Trump’s inauguration.
Rosalynd Harris, who works at Busboys and Poets in the northwest part of the nation’s capital, told The Washington Post she was beaming with confidence Monday after taking part in the Women’s March over the weekend.
A group of men from west Texas entered the restaurant and started to chat with Harris. One of the men, who said he was a dentist, complimented her on her smile. Harris, who is black, told the Post she was admittedly a bit prejudice when the men, who were white, told her they were in town to support Trump.
However, Harris didn’t expect what would come next.
After the men had left, Harris picked up their check and found that they left a heartwarming message and a generous tip. They left Harris a $450 tip on a $72.60 bill. Their message read:
“We may come from different cultures and may disagree on certain issues, but if everyone would share their smile and kindness like your beautiful smile, our country will come together as one people. Not race. Not gender. Just American. God Bless!"

Harris said she was overwhelmed.
“You automatically assume if someone supports Trump that they have ideas about you, but [the customer is] more embracing than even some of my more liberal friends, and there was a real authenticity in our exchange,” she told the paper.
Harris added that the message was a great reminder not to make assumptions and that many Americans want the country to come together regardless of politics. -

Trump supporters aren't the best, they are rapists, misogynist, racist, and anti-women. Some of them, I assume, are good people. -

Good job on listing, you missed the theocrats and a sprinkling of opportunists like Cory Lewandowsky and Kelly Anne Conway, and the "good people are ignorant and deluded. -

It's a cool story. Just bugs me when people use 'prejudice' as an adjective.

To be fair GOPers said the same too e.g. Kasich.

QuakerOatsImran Awan, the former IT aide for Democratic Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, has been indicted on four counts including bank fraud and making false statements.
And although the Russian hacking myth is starting to be proven completely false and instead was a ruse from the beginning, the deep state will continue to cover up the truth; including the death of Mr. Rich. -

This will be interesting. While I might agree with DWS for not firing him without any evidence (I think that's probably debatable) or charges, she's not running a small business. The guy had access to very sensitive, possibly classified, information. I want to know if he was on paid leave, and if not (actively employed) then I wonder if he was blackmailing people.QuakerOats;1867357 wrote:Imran Awan, the former IT aide for Democratic Florida Rep.

I'm not so sure about this. If Mueller is on a fishing expedition, he looks to be getting some bites. And although that Trump Jr. email only shows the idiot doesn't fall far from the tree, it's certainly not proof of criminality. However the eagerness and willingness, apparently against advice of some staffers, would certainly suggest he may have been open to possible collusion. That seems pretty textbook to how you start recruiting an "unknowing" agent.QuakerOats;1867357 wrote: And although the Russian hacking myth is starting to be proven completely false and instead was a ruse from the beginning, the deep state will continue to cover up the truth; including the death of Mr. Rich. -

You fish long enough you catch something. What he will catch won't be a keeper and the US taxpayer is on the hook for billions of wasted money. Total witch hunt
