8 Outrageous Statements Made By Trump Supporters
http://www.washingtontimes.com

Trump supporters have their own very interesting opinions on a lot of different issues. While some of this 'information' may be common knowledge in their world, it's news to the rest of us. Below you'll find actual statements that came from actual people that think Trump is making America great again.

1. “Trump is a genius for avoiding paying taxes.

This statement is wildly ridiculous. Taxes support the public by paying for services such as roads and infrastructure improvement, the salaries of servicemen and women, and other necessary projects. Trump avoided paying about 50 million dollars a year over 18 years. Think of all the good that money could’ve done, yet trump kept it to himself. Genius? No. Selfish? Yes. If we all acted like this, we'd be living in a state of chaos.

2. “The Presidency is a man’s job.”

When asked why she believed this one Trump supported her opinion with the “evidence” that women are more emotional than men and would lead us into unnecessary wars. She clearly has science on her side, and how can I argue against that?


3. “So what if he [Trump] wants to grab p***y, I wanna grab p***y

I think it’s important to recognize p***y is not a free floating idea, but a part of a woman with a name and the right to be respected.

Also, just to be clear not all men speak like that and if you conduct "locker room talk" outside of a locker room, the problem is you, not your location.


4. “Hillary Clinton contracted AIDS from Bill’s affair with Magic Johnson.”

Why base your beliefs on facts when you can use crazy conspiracies?


5. “Barack Obama had a big part in 9/11 because he was always on vacation and never in the office.”

That’s really strange that President Obama was missing from the Oval office seven years before he was elected. What could be more important? Where was he??


6. "One man's sexual assault is another man's flirtation."

If that's not reasonable what is?

7. “Gay couples shouldn’t have equal rights because it isn’t fair to the regular couple that worked so hard. The gay couple wants more.”

Interviewer: When you say more, do you mean equal?

Trump Supporter: “Well, yeah”

Interviewer: And that’s just too much?

Trump Supporter: “Yeah.”


8. “Extreme nations don’t treat women with respect. That’s an American Ideal.”

Now this is a opinion I can get behind. Women should be treated with respect. Yet it seems a little strange that the man who said this was wearing a shirt that read, “Hillary sucks, but not like Monica.” He was unable to see the irony even when asked about the back of his shirt as he yelled, “Trump that B**ch!”

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
