With a President Trump there will be no more Hillary supporters or Bernie Supporters-- just Republicans and infidels.

Few people in your acknowledge their privilege and I absolutely adore people who can. I am a lighter skinned man of color and even I acknowledge the privilege I have in being treated better and not having the negative issues that most darker people of color have. I just love it when people acknowledge their privilege. Thank you.

especially today help us fulfill the mission The Administrator has established for this board:


We are Democrats and we are all Clinton supporters now

http://www.democraticunderground.com/~Skinner


and how do those sentiments not make a mockery of The Administrator's admonition here:

Don't keep fighting the last Democratic presidential primary
Regardless of whether you supported a winning candidate or a losing candidate, do not prolong the agony of the last Democratic presidential primary by continuing to pick fights, place blame, tear down former primary candidates, bait former supporters, or do anything else to pour salt on old wounds.

That vote is my support. You're welcome. The OP was a hypothetical question
about the future. That in no way has anything to do with now, or Skinners

I don't see anything incongruous between following the two religions. I am content to let God sort out the doctrinal differences.


As a result of our history we can see the Trump threat more clearly than most.
