but the thing about deplorables is that they pop up again, spouting the same things, and odds are they won't get called on it. So, yeah, I get what you were saying earlier. Why seek a seat on a talking-head show unless you came to chew gum & kick ass?

"Do unto others, as you would have others do unto you." Or you can bring up Jesus parable of the Good Samaritan. Or that as an infant, Jesus was a refugee in Egypt.

about to stone a "woman taken in sin" (who might have been a rape victim, given their laws) to death and rip their faces off and ream out a few alternative orifices while you're at it.

When people lie about me to my face, I tend to let them have it, all of it.

After she failed to bully him into submission she adopted a passive aggressive stance. Lizza was having none of it. It was glorious.
