BITCH PLEASE! You sorry ass father is the one who started the family separation. He abused children! And as for values...you and your whole awful family have none!

And one more thing...fuck you!

[chillfactor]

1. could not have said it better myself!

Thank you Wanda!

[eleny]

2. Go on there, Wanda!

[backtoblue]

3. Love Wanda!!!!

[D_Master81]

4. Gotta love

Gotta love how the Trump family slaps each other on the back for fixing a problem they created.

[amuse bouche]

30. Except it is not fixed. The illegitimate prez has no plans to reunite kids and parents

[lunasun]

5. K&r

[CatMor]

6. Great response...

Ivanka being her phony self as usual.

[Scarsdale]

44. After that, Ivanka

went back to importing her stolen design from overseas, that are made by slave labor. This likely includes many, many underage kids, working in her sweat shops. Every bit as phony as her father, only with much more Botox and plastic surgery. Unlike her own kids, these immigrant kids spend lots of time with their parents. They are actually being RAISED by their parents, rather than nannies. This is the first time this country got a president, and his entire family into office, with no experience whatsoever. Knowing absolutely nothing, they spout off over everything, knowing next to nothing about the subjects. Self important dunderheads, every last one of them.

[bdamomma]

7. tell it Wanda!!!

I totally agree with her comment.

[a kennedy]

8. Love her......

and right on woman.

[GoCubsGo]

9. My sentiments, almost exactly.

Although I would have said "FUCK YOU!!!!" instead of "fuck you!"

[Cha]

10. I knew I would like it! Truth telling Wanda Sykes

Style.

That idiot GasLighting twit needed to be told.

[ecstatic]

11. K&R!! nt

[blake2012]

12. Hi hank you, Wanda!

[John Fante]

13. Trump is like a serial killer

who wants praise for helping authorities locate the bodies.

[lunatica]

20. Yes! I was trying to find a good example of the sleight of hand he THINKS no one

notices. He’s really like a little brat who steals a wad of bills but when he gets caught just gives one bill back, thinking it will fool everyone.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

26. And has all his lacky friends to support him

[Initech]

24. At least Dexter had a conscious and knew what he was doing was wrong.

Trump doesn't have that.

[YOHABLO]

14. That woman makes me laugh. Gotta love her.

[unitedwethrive]

15. Perfect response

It cannot be said too many times that we can see through their facade.

[Tarheel_Dem]

16. K&R

[highplainsdem]

17. K&R

[gademocrat7]

18. Amen, Wanda!

[UTUSN]

19. She's *MY* Wanda!1

[RainCaster]

21. What she said

[smirkymonkey]

22. Thank you Wanda!

[Rorey]

23. It's as if Wanda Sykes read my mind

[BigmanPigman]

25. Kathy Griffin and Robert DeNiro have started something with

Hollywood celebs! Good for them...no apologies please!

[uponit7771]

27. K&R

[oasis]

28. Tell it like it is, Wanda!

[badhair77]

29. She said "please"

Love it.

[Roy Rolling]

59. Thinking the Same

When the Tone Police start whining about her statement my response will be, "whattya mean? She said *please*!"

[Scurrilous]

31. K&R

[SunSeeker]

32. Thank you Wanda!

[tulipsandroses]

33. Yes, Yes, Yes,

I am getting tired of the niceties, and yes I have so many other words in my vocabulary. But sometimes these sorry pieces of shit don't even get that kind of respect. They deserve to be disrespected in the worst way.

[CakeGrrl]

34. Kremlin Barbie - Daddy's Little Enabler. -nt

[cpamomfromtexas]

35. Kremlin Barbie. Perfect name for her.

[Raster]

72. Oh YES!

Kremlin Barbie...

Tell it, Ms. Wanda!

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

36. At least she didn't call her a "feckless c--t," so Wanda's in the clear.

BTW, Ivanka's empathy for the children went only so far as to tell her sociopath father that the images of the children in cages were going to hurt him. I think that had the biggest effect on his decision to do as little as possible to get people off his back.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

49. Agree. It's terrible to call someone "Feckless". Inexcusable.

On the other hand, I don't think she has any fecks, not a one.

[jayschool2013]

58. I'm out of fecks myself

for the First Crime Family.

[gratuitous]

37. Hey! Is that fair?

"Me first and fuck you" may be a horrible value, but it's a value.

[KT2000]

38. the thing about Wanda Sykes' tweets

is that you can actually hear her saying it!

[Honeycombe8]

39. That's true! Hahahaha. nt

[KelleyKramer]

40. Yeah, I got that out of it too!

[calimary]

41. Wanda speaks for me.

[whathehell]

42. Yeah, address her as "bitch," -- Gender slurs always help.

[duforsure]

43. Thank You Wanda!

You said what most people think of her. Just another evil person trying to con people into believing she's a good person, when she isn't even close.

[Scarsdale]

46. There is nothing

"genuine" about any tRump women. All Botox and plastic surgery. Walking robots, unable to smile because their faces have been pulled too tight. I doubt that Ivanka has any original parts left. For sure her latest step-mother doesn't.

[whathehell]

47. Speak for yourself..

and I'm sorry, but "most" people of class and intelligence criticize without stopping to racial or gender slurs..It's just lazy, stupid shit...As a lesbian of color, Sykes should know better.

[NoMoreRepugs]

60. You are wrong. When an intelligent person with "class"

takes it into the gutter to describe how they truly feel about someone/something I think it's far more impactful. Think of your sweet mother or Aunt dropping the "F" bomb during a conversation.... made you take notice didn't it??

[whathehell]

61. No, you are wrong...First, Sykes is generally funny,

but being such really does NOT ensure either "class" or intelligence,
although I do think she is intelligent, which makes her cheap remark all the more disappointing.

Second, using gender and racial slurs is NOT in keeping with Democratic values, and Sykes should know better, ESPECIALLY since, as a Black Gay Woman, she's vulnersble to these kinds of slurs herself.

To paraphrase a line from the film, Mean Girls, "it's stupid to call yourselves "bitches" since it just makes it easier for men to call you that".

In other words, bad acts committed by females should no more be met by Gender slurs, than bad acts by Blacks or Gays should be met by Gay or Racial slurs.-- Capeche?

[NoMoreRepugs]

66. Gender slurs? Wow, get out much?

Blacks and gays I've known RIP on each other constantly, they are WORDS - not actions.

[whathehell]

69. Oh.so those don't count"?..Maybe you should "get out more"

Blacks and gays may "rip" on each other Among Tthemselves, but, unlike Sykes and some others, they rarely, if ever, do so PUBLICLY... Getting it now?

[NoMoreRepugs]

70. Thank u for the very valuable lesson,

time for me to reassess my life.

[whathehell]

78. Thanks.

I appreciate it.

[whathehell]

50. Yeah..Thanks for the cheap sexist slur.

They're sure to address the real issues'.

[RandiFan1290]

45. Don't apologize!! nt

[whathehell]

48. Yeah, cause as a black gay woman

addressing another woman as "bitch" is sooo helpfull.

[Funtatlaguy]

51. It's past the point of mattering or helping

They can not be reasoned with in a post factual post truthful society.
For them, truth is what Trump or Fox News tells them it is.
We might as well say fuck you to them and let them know we know what and who they really are.
THEY CAN NOT BE REASONED WITH BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT REASONABLE.

[whathehell]

52. I think you misunderstood..

I wasn't speaking of Trump & company, I was speaking of the response by Wanda Sykes

[Funtatlaguy]

53. No, I understood.

We no longer should go high when they go low, as Michelle said.
It didn’t work then and it certainly doesn’t work now that the hold all of the halls of power.
We don’t need to try to show we are better people than they are.
We know that.
There’s no mushy middle either for us to try to persuade.
If Wanda wants to call somebody a bitch or bastard because they earned it, so be it.
Righteous anger can be good.
It can motivate the righteous to fight against the unrighteousness they see in the world.
Summing it up, “no more mr nice guy, no more finishing last”.

[whathehell]

54. Sorry, I don't agree for this reason

It's not a matter of "going high" or not when they go low..It's not about THEM, it's a matter of our sticking to our OWN humane, progressive Principles

I'm sorry, but Democrats don't INSULT people on the basis of their Gender, Race, or Sexual Orientation..Remember?

[Funtatlaguy]

55. Bitch, as an insult, now transcends gender.

I think it just means horrible person. Like someone bitchy.
We could call then deplorables....but, they reveled in that.
I don’t care what we call them, I just want them voted out of office where they can stop hurting others and the planet.

[whathehell]

56. Nah..Not really..Some say that about the N-word and I don't believe that either

I get what you're saying, but no, it hasn't completely transcended it's misogynist roots.

[Larrybanal]

62. your comments sound like you are from the FDR era

and whether you like it or not the world is done being offended about calling trump or his daughter a bitch..they are whiny little bitches.
basically the whole world thinks trump is a bitch...a lying bitch who can't be trusted

[whathehell]

64. Lol, nice try.

but if that were true, you'd hwve to explain why -- outside of the occasional quote -. the word 'bitch' is considered a gender slur on DU, and is, as such, STRONGLY discouraged, if not outright forbidden here. .
I can assure that neither the Administrators not the vast majority of the membership are "from the FDR era".

[LiberalLovinLug]

77. I think there is another reason to not shy away from strong language against them

That is that is only highlights their hypocrisy. Which is good for our side.

Because if they dare huff and puff about some bad word used against them, their fake outrage is immediately defanged by the common knowledge of their own vile boor they hold up as their authority. The big orange elephant and his 'locker room talk' is always in the room with them.

They either look like disingenuous fools rebuking it, or they have to shut up and take it knowing more than half the country is nodding their heads.

Its as if the Right has left a door open. It would actually be stupid not to use it. A small but effective way to shame them and their evangelical die-hards. Force a mirror on them to have to look into. Helps to raise strife in their base between the ones that are just fooled and brainwashed into (so far) ignoring or whitewashing his behaviour, and those that are truly deplorable scum that have no problem with his foul mouth.

[stonecutter357]

57. K&R !

[Mr.Bill]

63. Is it still okay

if I refer to Trump as a steaming pile of pig shit?
Or is that not fair to the pigs?

[whathehell]

65. Huh?

[itcfish]

75. Not fair

to pig shit! LOL

[Dem_4_Life]

67. 100% Thank you Wanda!

You speak for all of us!

[geardaddy]

71. I love Wanda Sykes.

[axm]

73. Beautiful

Just beautiful.

[niyad]

74. k and r

[dubyadiprecession]

76. Will any of this bother Ivanka??

It's clear to me,that Ivanka just medicates herself.

[stuffmatters]

79. Wanda Sykes says it perfectly.
