We were in London last year and everybody hated Chump. We were in China last month, and ditto, although the Chinese are not so outspoken.

Any normal human being that was hated like DJT is, would pull the plug and start to look at his obnoxious behavior, but not DJT!!! Either he doesn't care what anyone thinks about him or else, maybe he really is schizophrenic and can't look at the reality. Any normal human being would have resigned a long time ago, not DJT, he still thinks and believes or fantasizes that he is the smartest, most beloved human being in the world!! Most normal people couldn't function with the negativity but not DJT. What does that tell you about him?

...didn't forget to add a "sarcasm" tag to that post.

But I could be wrong.

...my daughter is in London working towards her Master's degree in a degree program she loves on her own dime from money she earned from working while in High School and while completing her Bachelors. The only thing she "inherited" from me was an honest work ethic and a disdain for the self-righteous.

So factually, yes, she is not working (at the moment) but at the same time she is anything but lazy and she is most certainly not a republican (she can think for herself).

So, for any conservative lurkers or otherwise-haters out there, piss-off.

To everyone else, thanks for the warm response and RECs.

My parents never had to write a check for any of my degrees, either. I used my earnings and some scholarship money. And I learned a lot about personal discipline working part time and taking 15-18 hours a semester.

...but she is my baby girl and YES!, my daughter is absolutely Awe Inspiring.

I failed to mention that she earned her own full 4-year scholarship for her Bachelors due to a very strong high school career (7th in her class, was the only girl to wrestle on the boys team where she was selected to compete in the national girls wrestling championship, successfully competed in 4-H, cross-country and track) and excellent ACT and SAT scores.

To dismiss her accomplishments with the assumption she is where she is today because of some fancied phantasm of an inheritance tends to make my blood boil.

...she is a bit embarrassed...but happy everyone likes them.


She said one of the "babysitters" said they are taking in so many donations they might be able to follow drumpf around with the balloon for a few extra days.
