So You Support Trump
businessinsider

Let me start off by saying: people talk about politics. Actually, all people do is talk about politics.

If you are offended by people's beliefs or if you are offended when they say something against yours, then delete all of your social media. Better yet, don't leave your house or turn on your TV. People are going to talk about politics and that's just how it is.

So here I am talking about politics in defense of political correctness.

If you support Donald Trump, OK, but you need to understand that you are supporting a hateful, fear mongering, ignorant individual. Guys, come on, Trump is just not a good person:

1. Trump is ignorant towards women.

Here's a tweet from the real Twitter of a real presidential candidate:

So if you put men and women together it is assumed women will get raped? Sorry ladies, if you want to join the military, good luck out there because you will probably get sexually assaulted. I mean men just can’t help themselves! Man, what was America thinking by allowing women to defend their country, am I right?

If not just for his ignorant attitude towards rape, he is simply a bully:

"Rosie O'Donnell is disgusting - both inside and out. If you take a look at her, she's a slob... If I were running 'The View', I'd fire Rosie O'Donnell. I mean, I'd look at her right in the fat, ugly face of hers, I'd say 'Rosie, you're fired."

People may like to call that "speaking the truth", but us moral people like to call it bullying and blatant disregard for human decency.

Don't worry, he hasn't changed much because in a 1991 Esquire interview he said:

"You know, it doesn't really matter what [the media] writes as long as you've got a beautiful piece of ass."

He even managed to disgustingly objectify his daughter:

"She does have a very nice figure... if [she] weren't my daughter, perhaps I'd be dating her."

There are even more quotes and instances where Trump has acted this way towards women. It's truly sad that anyone supports this misogynistic man.

2. Trump is hateful towards Muslims.

Trump wants to ban Muslims from the United States. If you heard this and thought it was justifiable, then okbut maybe you need to admit that you too are hateful towards another religion, and you are probably racist.

It is hateful because you are denying people the right to practice a religion, which is the religion of Islam.

It is racist because you believe that all Muslims are terrorists when in fact terrorists such as ISIS go against the morals and principles of Islam.

Trump is not "saying what we want to hear" he is being so disgustingly hateful.

3. Trump is racist.

Here is a tidbit from Trump's speech when he announced his presidency:

"When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best. They're not sending you. They're not sending you. They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people."

It is definitely NOT racist generalizing an entire country by calling them drug lords, felons, and rapists.

Thought he was only racist towards a select few NON-white people? Don't worry he does not discriminate his love for racism:

4. Trump was a reality TV show host.

If that's not enough for you to understand how ridiculous it is that he is running for president, going back to how he is hateful towards women in his book How to Get Rich, he stated: “All of the women on ‘The Apprentice’ flirted with me — consciously or unconsciously. That’s to be expected.”

All I can say about that is: ugh.

5."OK, but he's a successful businessman." Here you go:

Please enjoy this list of Trump's top 10 business failures.

Also, even if he was a good businessman, in what way does that qualify him to run for president?

Like I said: if you support Trump, please just recognize the kind of a person you are supporting. Please do not look past his hateful and ignorant qualities because they don't personally affect you. You all want to #MakeAmericaGreatAgain, well I believe you want to #MakeAmericaWhiteAgain.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

You can't say that no one told you life was gonna be this way.

friends

In the 12 years since it went off the air, "Friends" continues to be adored by millions. The show that gave generations unrealistic expectations about love (or should I say lobsters?) and New York City apartments had a charming cast of characters that everyone could relate to at some point or another. Here are 17 times Ross, Monica, Joey, Chandler, Phoebe and Rachel accurately described life.

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.
